The Minor Villain's Tale: The Act 3 Middle Boss Was a Regressor?

Max was a former assassin who lived a lonely and peaceful life. He spent all 7 years of his life in loneliness, but it did not matter. He found great joy in playing "The Adventures of Emiliana, Searching for Truth," a reverse harem visual novel he found by accident. At first, he thought the game was bad. However, he changed his mind because of his favorite character: the fiancee of the crown prince, who was one of the male leads. This fiancee was a villainess. She was his favorite character and also his crush. In his whole life, she was the only one who made things feel special and worth living for. He tried every choice possible to make her survive in the game, but it was all useless. When she died in a terrible and sad way, he threw his glass of beer in anger. "FUCK THIS GAME!" He went outside and was suddenly shot in the head. Then, he woke up in the body of Sylan, the Act 3 middle boss of the game. He lived that life not once, not twice, but 30 thousand times. He went back in time thousand of times to try and save his crush. He always failed. In his final try, he died at Emiliana's hands by the power of the goddess. He thought he would go back in time again. He thought he would suffer another life as Sylan. Instead, he woke up in his past life as Max. He promised himself that he would live this new life happily until he died. But will his newly returned life be easy? Or worse, will he become Sylan again? This is the story of the Act 3 middle boss, who went back in time many times.

God of War - Karmic Cycle [AU]

TLDR What if instead of landing in the realms of Norse Gods, Kratos finds himself stranded within the realms of Hindu Mythology? ___ Summary After his last stand atop Mount Olympus, Kratos believed his bloody saga had finally come to an end. But death has other plans. Awakening in a mysterious, ancient land alive with powerful gods and unfamiliar legends, he finds himself face-to-face with a new pantheon - one as vast and intricate as the one he once tore apart. Without the blinders of vengeance clouding his vision, Kratos is forced to confront himself as never before. Without enemies to chase or grudges to fuel him, he must reckon with the monstrous deeds of his past and question the path that brought him here. Is there still a chance for redemption, even for someone like him? This is a journey of self-discovery, repentance, and growth - a path that might lead Kratos to something he has never known: peace. ___ Author's Note This is an AU (Alternate/Author's Universe) that picks up from where God of War 3 leaves off. Note that the label AU is important as I take some creative liberty when painting certain elements of the Hindu Mythos. The ratio of content that is true to the source material and my interpretation is 90/10. Though I will not deviate significantly from the crux/core of the mythology, I do need some creative leeway to ensure that the "rules" of the universe are robust and free of plot-holes. For more information on this, please read the Preface chapter. ___ FAQ Q: Will Kratos be killing gods? A: Maybe. Q: Will "X" (god or character) make an appearance? A: Maybe. Q: Will "X" (event) take place? A: Maybe. Q: Will there be a harem? A: No.
