Second Chance: A Dark Tale of Urban India

[When a lamb turns into a lion] Meet, Riku Higashi, a notorious Japanese hacker on the run, dies tragically. But fate isn't finished with him. He is reborn in India as an 18-year-old high schooler, Rohit with a brand new identity and a house full of tempting opportunities. Raised as the heir to a billionaire, Rohit soon discovers the truth: this life is not a gift, but a countdown. Once he turns twenty, he is meant to be disposed of. What begins as freedom quickly twists into tension. What his handlers fail to realize is that in his past life, Riku was no ordinary criminal. He was a master mind wanted by twenty-one nations—a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Given the perfect opportunity, he can return every betrayal a thousandfold. This new life offers pleasure, power, and the tempting possibility of redemption. He could erase his criminal past and live in comfort, untouched by shadows. But fate has other plans. The very secret organization responsible for his death has resurfaced, haunting his path to power once more. As his past tightens its grip, Rohit must choose: hide behind a new face—or confront the darkness head-on. To the world, he could become a billionaire prodigy. To the underworld, a relentless hunter. And this time, he has everything to lose—and everything to take back.

Reincarnated in a novel: I am the villain!

[System Alert: The Villain has logged in…] [Detection: The Script has been corrupted.] The world of The Hero Returns ended in ash. The Hero failed, the Gods abandoned their creation, and the Demon King erased humanity. Lin Ye, a reader obsessed with the novel, raged at the tragic ending. He cursed the author, the gods, and specifically Damien Voss, the cowardly mid-boss villain whose incompetence doomed them all. Then, he opened his eyes. He was no longer Lin Ye. He was a newborn infant, staring up at a lavish ceiling. He was Damien Voss! The same Damien destined to be framed as a traitor. The same Damien who would watch his family be executed. The same Damien meant to become the "King of Ten Thousand Monsters", only to serve as a stepping stone for the Hero. [Destiny System Activated] [Current Status: Cannon Fodder] [Objective: Rewrite Fate.] Armed with encyclopedic knowledge of the future and a System that rewards defiance, Damien refuses to follow the script. Does the plot say he dies early? He edits the event. Are his skills F-Rank trash? He rewrites the code. Do the Heroes try to stop him? He enslaves them using the forbidden Contract Gem of the Voss Bloodline. However, changing the story comes with a price. Grafting new abilities shreds the soul, and altering destiny draws the gaze of the Void Demon Gods. But Damien doesn’t care. He will save his doomed family. He will command beasts, monsters, and demons. He will tear apart the script written for him. He will walk his own path, even if the world opposes him! ................................................ discord server: https://discord.gg/5XSAhZc9VS

A Feast of Hands

…Fuck my family. The thought was the first thing to stroke into Ryckel's mind. He woke with a scream that died in his throat. Frantically breathing in and out, only to feel the warmth and dampness at him. Like he was breathing onto something too close. Not open air. Something was wrong. He knew this familiar feeling. He was wearing a gas mask. He coughed until every fiber in his body begged him to stop. He wasn't on a bed or anywhere close to the ground. Instead, he was dangling over an abyss by the edge of a cliff, wrapped in thick, black coils that dug right into his chest and thighs holding him like a macabre display. While all around him, there was nothing but a suffocating mist of red. "Of course it just has to be me." ------ Shout out to @scholarofyore0 for helping me out with the power system, really appreciate it. Also my release schedule is 2 chapters every weekday and just 1 chapter every weekend Do note, the prose style in my work reflect the POV of the chapter and yes, there would be POVs apart from Ryckel's. The prose style(s) would still be easy to read and understand. Like Ryckel's POV is more art based because he's actually an artist. The auxiliary chapter isn't also compulsory. If you like an aux chap that details the world and everything then it's for you. But if you don't, then you can just read the story itself. Info and all that would still be revealed naturally. Do be warned though, the aux chap is written and structured in a way that many writers on here don't normally do...

The Heroine’s Shadow: Beneath the Veil of the Tale

Violetta, a devoted lover of literature, believed she knew Angela’s Smile by heart—her favorite novel down to the last page. But when a cruel fate reincarnates her within its world, she finds neither the magic nor the radiant heroine she once adored. She awakens as Vidalia, the erased and insignificant half-sister of the original story, reduced to a shadow—and Angela’s magical slave. Bound by a contract she can break only through death, Vidalia lives a double life behind the veil that conceals her face. In the shadows of courtly intrigue, she uncovers buried truths about her mother, inadvertently draws the attention of the novel’s protagonists, and forms an unlikely bond with Camélia—the former antagonist destined for a tragic end. Slowly, the story she believed to be immutable begins to veer off its course… But it is her encounter with Arzhel—a feared and mesmerizing mage—that truly shatters her existence. Sarcastic and dangerous, unstable and willing to burn the world to ashes for her, he becomes her ally, her obsession, and her damnation. Torn between consuming passion and invisible chains, Vidalia must choose: submit to her role as a sacrificial extra… or write her own ending, even if it means embracing the darkness. A dark fantasy romance where reincarnation, politics, and forbidden passions intertwine within a suffocating Victorian-inspired world of secrets and unspoken desires. (WATTPAD : Lady Sam19)

Reborn To Be The Imperial Consort [BL]

[The Imperial Consort could have been so much more than what we were shown.] --- Genius Neurosurgeon Lǐ Xīnyuàn died while being held at the gunpoint to perform a surgery on a terrorist leader. When he opened his eyes, he had transmigrated into a world similar to a Webnovel he'd been forced to read by a colleague. Now you'd think Lǐ Xīnyuàn had transmigrated into that Webnovel. But did he? No! Instead he'd been transmigrated into that webnovel's spin-off/"what-if" version of the story with nothing but the superficial knowledge of the plot thanks to reading the main novel. Now tasked with the mission of avoiding plotholes, unnecessary dog-blood, death and following the storyline to ensure the male lead's ascension to the throne of Supreme Emperor, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. And why did no one tell him that his character had to be married into the Male Lead's harem?? What about the Female Lead? Later: Lǐ Xīnyuàn: Why doesn't Your Highness spend the night with Concubine Namgung? ML: Don't want to. Lǐ Xīnyuàn: ... Why? ML: Are you pushing me away? Lǐ Xīnyuàn: QAQ --- Transmigrated (sometimes) Loud Mouthed MC x Indulgent (Enabler) ML, Slightly Pyromaniac Fox Spirit x CEO of unconditional love Dragon Spirit, Morally Questionable DILF Cultivator x Reincarnated Fox Spirit with very low self-esteem. CW: Deaths, PTSD, Blood, Explicit Smut, and so many more. This novel is as much of a journey of healing, self-forgiveness, pain, misery, grief, death, and depression etc, as it is a story of friendship, unconditional love. Self-exploration and dark themes go hand in hand with light ones. It is as much of a waltz as it is a discordant symphony of a past that haunts almost all characters. I hope you will give my cuties a chance. Oh, right, the synopsis may be a wee-bit misleading—quite light-hearted.

Lin Yu finds himself transported to the world of Honkai: Star Rail. Equipped with a divine mobile game development system, his first project is creating "Honkai: Star Rail." Soon, his game captures the attention of the entire universe. As players reach the Cocolia boss battle, the song 'Wildfire' begins playing. "Woah?!

Progressing further, they encounter Dan Heng's sea-parting scene. "I thought 'Wildfire' was intense enough, but there's even more fire here!" "Dan Heng, still denying you're Imbibitor Lunae? Now you're a five-star limited character!" Arriving at Penacony: "Huh? Have you listened to 'WHITE NIGHT'?" "Acheron's power has been tested - fellow gamers, feel free to pull for her!" "Duke Inferno: Children, this isn't funny." "Before experiencing the story: Aventurine? Just another profit-driven fraud! After the storyline: May the Mother Goddess thrice close her eyes upon thee..." "What Aventurine?! He's clearly my unfortunate yet loyal bro!" *** Please support me on Patreon, where you can read a bunch of extra chapters, not just for this novel, but for all the novels I'm translating.
