Apocalypse User's Manual

Additional Book Tags; Physicological, Cunning male lead, Game elements, gods, Anti hero, Suspense, Large World, Gaslighting. Synopsis At the end of it all, Dssal was the one who built Pantheon. "My felicitations to the Nameless God." The world would proclaim, if he'd lived long enough to hear it. December 24th, 2026 marked the start of everything: the day he stepped into Pantheon. Not as some chosen god, unfortunately —that chance was barely there. Pantheon was a cosmic horror game, one in which Dssal entered as cannon fodder, burdened with the miserable title of "Feeble Wanderer." Matter of fact assuming Alice wasn’t a regressor, there would be no story to tell today. After all, she'd failed ninety nine times until her current and last run. To the world continuum, a regressor was nothing special. A divine war among the Eight High Gods broke containment, and their chaos inevitably spilled from Cosmos into the real world. Earth could only survive if this impossible game was cleared—a matter of life and death of a version of the game which hadn't been cleared even without the war. Dssals predicament was almost impossible. Possibility only remained because to balance cause and effect Dssal was offered something different. The Eight High wields the power of manifestation, hence a new law emerged—one bound by a broken loophole: The User's Manual. Fallacy When inside Pantheon, by the Eight High's will, if developers and players alike believes Dssal (the creator) possessed something, the system would code it real—according to the manual. Falsehood could literally become a weapon. Dssal grinned when he heard it. This wasn't a power fantasy. This was the story of how the weakest Arcane Bearer alive lies, cheats, and claws his way through survival long enough to turn the end of the world into leverage. This is the story of How To Use A World's Apocalypse. --- A/N: The main story fully begins at chapter 11 btw and a full written volume of 101 chapters is already available hence do believe in this unrivalled authors consistency XD

I'm an extra, but I'm actually OP?!

I thought my story had already ended... but maybe this is where a new one truly begins. [Your soul has been transmigrated into the body of a side character: Reiji Kanzaki.] When I opened my eyes, I was no longer myself. I had once stood at the top of the world—a mafia boss with wealth, power, and more women than most men could dream of. Life had already lost its flavor. And then I woke up inside a novel... as a nobody. Reiji Kanzaki, a side character with no talent, no future, and no importance. Or at least, that was how it was supposed to be. [Character Stats: +999999999] [Mana: Lilitless.] [Potential: Unmeasurable.] Somehow, the system glitched and turned me into the most powerful sorcerer alive. So powerful, in fact, that it immediately sealed my strength behind twelve seals to stop me from destroying the world. There’s just one problem. The only way to unlock those seals... is to steal the protagonist’s destined women by raising my Bond Resonance with each of them to its limit. My old life had become numb, stale, and empty. But this? This is interesting. So if this world wants to throw me in as an extra... then I’ll become the strongest extra it has ever seen. And while I’m at it, I might as well have some fun. This world is not ready for me.

I Accidentally Became a Boss in a Mafia Game

“Just winning ten million baht was already chaotic enough. Why the hell do I have to run for my life in a mafia world on top of that?!” Jin-woo was once an ordinary young man who struck gold by winning the first-prize lottery. What should have been the luckiest day of his life quickly turned into a living nightmare. Relatives he hadn’t spoken to in years suddenly crawled out of the woodwork, demanding their “fair share.” Old friends reappeared with shady business proposals. Unknown numbers flooded his phone day and night. Paranoia consumed him until he could no longer trust anyone. Desperate to hide the money where the real world could never touch it, he did the most insane thing imaginable: he dumped all ten million baht into Lord of Utopia — a brutal, decade-old turn-based mafia strategy game set in a dark medieval underworld. But before he could even enjoy his new in-game fortune, a truck ended his life. When he opened his eyes again, he had reincarnated as the Boss of Crow Creek District. On the outside, he was a devastatingly handsome young man with a chilling gaze and an overwhelming aura of bloodlust. One cold word from his lips was enough to make enemy syndicates drop their weapons and flee in terror, screaming about the devil. His subordinates worshipped him as a merciless genius. Inside, however… he was a cowardly mess. His legs were shaking uncontrollably. His mind was screaming “Please don’t kill me!” while cold sweat ran down his back. Every time his loyal underlings knelt and praised his “profound, unfathomable strategy,” he wanted to cry. And now the System had delivered the worst news possible: He had only 72 hours left to secure his territory. If he failed, rival mafia syndicates would swarm in and carve him into pieces. Fortunately, his final act of madness before death had not been in vain. The ten million baht he had poured into the game had become an astronomical amount of Premium Coins — enough to shake the very foundations of this cruel world. Thus begins the ridiculous saga of a spineless boss who must fake absolute dominance, hide his crippling fear, and spam the gacha to summon terrifying SSR-rank Mafia Monsters just to survive. The rise of the most cowardly underworld emperor has officially begun.
