Reborn with my killer's looks

Over a thousand years ago, the Byzantine Empire (Romans but Catholic) unified the world through a campaign known as the SANCTIFICATION. This conquest was made possible by the Prime Twelve. Immortal warriors blessed with CRESTS; Divine marks that granted them godlike powers. Each Crest embodied a fundamental force of nature: the Winds of Time, Chains of Fate, Breadth of Life, Scales of judegement, Radiant Truth, and others. The Prime Twelve's true purpose, however, was to seal the Seven DIAVOLO. Apocalyptic entities representing the darker inversions of the natural order: Corruption, Death, Decay, Dreams, Chaos and Darkness. Each Diavolo commanded Heralds who in turn commanded Apostles wielding fragments of their masters' world-ending power. The sealing was successful, but it came at a cost. Dimensional tears called Rifts began opening across the world, unleashing VARIANTS; monsters that defied natural law. To combat this threat, the Prime Twelve founded Major Houses and spread Crests throughout humanity. Today, those born with Crests called TOPPLERS form the ruling class of society, while the Crestless, the ACHUSOI are treated as second-class citizens. Marcus Chen was Achusoi. He survived by taking whatever work he could find in the empire's margins, invisible to a world built for the powerful. His life ended when one job went sideways, murdered by Huey Cross—the youngest son of House Cross. One of the Prime Twelve lineages. Ironically, Huey himself was Crestless, and an embarrassment to his bloodline. Marcus wakes up in Huey's body with fragmented memories and a terrible realization: Huey DID have a Crest. Just not one that came from God. Now inhabiting his killer's body, Marcus must navigate VIRELIA INSTITUTE, a university for gifted Topplers, while investigating what happened eight months ago at St. Helena Hospital..... the incident that put him in this body. By night, he becomes the Blue Reaper, a vigilante hunting down secrets the empire buried. But as he digs deeper, Marcus discovers a horrifying truth: the Seven Diavolo were never truly sealed. Their Heralds walk among humanity and he is infact one of them. Armed with a kingdom of Apostles, maids, servants, foot soldiers and his very own palace REQUEIM within the dimension of death - LIMBO. Marcus comes to accept his new fate "I AM THE BLUE REAPER, AND I HERALD DEATH." --- NOTE: See auxiliary chapters for detailed world-building and power system information.

The Hero and The Demon Princess

In a world where desire is feared as much as demons themselves, the Demonfolk are hunted, burned, and erased from history. Leading this crusade is the Hero Akira —hailed as humanity’s savior—whose blade was forged in hatred after demons took everything from him. Among those demons stands the Astarielle – Queen of the Succubi, ruler of temptation, sovereign of the night. To the world, she is a myth whispered in prayers and curses alike. To her people, she is their last shield against extinction. Their paths were never meant to cross. When fate binds the Hero to the Queen through a shattered pact older than war itself, something impossible begins to bloom. Not lust. Not manipulation. Love—raw, irrational, and terrifyingly sincere. She, who was born to enthrall hearts, falls helplessly for the one man immune to her charm. He, who has sworn to annihilate Demonkind, finds his hatred unraveling in the face of her humanity. Each stolen moment deepens the fracture between duty and desire. Every touch is a betrayal—of throne, of faith, of blood. As kingdoms march toward a final holy war, the Queen must choose between her crown and her heart, while the Hero must decide whether salvation truly lies in genocide—or in loving the very monster he was raised to kill. Because if their love is discovered, it will not just end a war. It will burn the world to ash.

Level Up in Earth Evolution

The Earth's Evolution begins with the first phase Monster Invasion, and everyone receiving a system. The system allows them to choose classes like RPG games: Warrior, Mage, Paladin, Healer, and many more. ____ Li Wei and Li Xin were both shut-in gamers and stepsiblings. They were bored with normal life and yearned to live as if they were in RPG games. When suddenly the world started to change suddenly like they wanted. Li Wei selected special class, "Jack-of-all-Trades," because he desired to master everything. There was no problem and everything was going well, when suddenly he was forced to accept the quest to kill gods, along with the upgrade of his system. Little did he know that he was chosen mistakenly because of his bad luck. However, every time he kills a monster, he gains 10× more XP and rewards than a normal person, making him stronger. ___ It was when the second phase of Earth Evolution starts, making everyone stunned because it begins with 'World Rebuilding.' The Earth begins to absorb nearby worlds, changing the whole map, adding dungeons and spawning monsters. The Earth was changing, similar to fantasy world's described in games and novels. ____ Li Wei and Li Xin were in trouble as people discovered their extraordinary strength; because of this they escape from the city of earth and head towards unknown forest where they stumbled upon a city from another world. The city was just like a fantasy where Adventures Guild existed with all kinds of quests. *** Author's Note: The story is slow paced, MC is overpowered and there is a lot of romance. *** Content Warning: R18, No NTR, No Yaoi *** LinkTree- https://linktr.ee/Around_The_Moon Discord- https://discord.gg/zTgR9VFduX

Logging 10,000 Years into the Future: the Battlefield arc

Welcome, fellow readers. Here is the complete Battlefield arc and and some chapters from the following arc, 50+ novel chapters in English. This is a personal work posted on webnovel.com only. This is not yet another "raw MTL" version (raw MTL means unedited, automatic, hard-to-read Machine TransLation). Enjoy :) LAST UPDATE, February 22nd: The webnovel is still on hiatus, the manhua has entered the second half of this Battlefield arc. Manhua chapter #297 is web-novel chapter #565 Star Chief Elder. There are 664 web-novel chapters in Chinese on faloo, this novel isn't completed, it has been on hiatus for 2+ years with very rare updates and nothing new since may 2025. The current pace is 2 manhua chapters per week, and 1 manhua chap represents oughly 2 novel chaps. There are 100 novel chapters left, It means 50 more manhua chapters, which might last 25 weeks (6 months). Where should you start reading? Probably at chapter #530 (the beginning of this arc). If you've read the manhua, check the table below to find out where you're at in the novel. The Battlefield arc begins with webnovel chapter #530 and ends with webnovel chapter #579. Here is a table of the latest manhua chapters and the corresponding webnovel chapters: Publication date - Manhua chapter > Webnovel chapter Jan. 25th - ch. #291 > novel ch. #551 "The third option ..." Jan. 29th - ch. #292 > novel ch. #552 "Strike" Feb. 8th - ch. #293 > novel ch. #558 "The End? ..." Feb. 10th - ch. #294 > novel ch. #560 "You're Just ..." Feb. 13rd - ch. #295 > novel ch. #562 "You're Lucky ..." Feb 17th - ch. #296 > novel ch. #564 "Do you Know ..." Feb 21nd - ch. #297 > novel ch. #565 "Chief Star Elder ..." Chapters 293 to 297 of the manhua felt rushed, as if the team wanted to get rid of that project asap, almost parodic. The webnovel is more detailed than the manhua, there are also interesting differences between both, so you can anyway start from the first chapter of this arc (webnovel chapter #530). With usually two manhua chapters published per week (and a drawing quality which unfortunately drastically decreased over the years), it might take around 1 or 2 months for the manhua to reach the end of this arc. As I stated above, each manhua chapter used to cover at least two novel chapters, but lately the pace was slower. This arc starts with webnovel chapter #530 "The Battlefield is open!" (manhua chapter #278) and it ends with webnovel chapter #569 "Saya's Fate". Another journey begins for Lu Sheng. You can find other English versions online, but beware, they are mostly if not all raw MTL translations. Note that Sheng will only definitely leave the battlefield region in chapter 592 "Out of the battlefield". Logging into the Future is initially a Chinese webnovel which has unfortunately been on hiatus for a while, which might explain the slow pace of the manhua lately: chapter 663 was posted on faloo.com in March 2025. See https://wap.faloo.com/1129789.html Here is an abstract for the manhua from mangaupdates.com: 300 years after mutated beasts ravaged the world, humanity began to lose ground, with only martial arts as their last line of defense. Lu Sheng mysteriously gains the power to journey 10,000 years into the future, only to find humanity has disappeared. However, he acquires the culminated martial arts wisdom to fight back against these monsters, honing his skills to the pinnacle. Armed with this new-found knowledge, can Lu Sheng emerge as the final beacon of hope for humanity's survival? Note that there is another English version posted by Transcedence on this site, webnovel.com, it is a hard to read raw MTL version but it is almost complete; 11 chapters are missing though, in the middle of the Alien Battlefield arc, right where the manhua is currently at.
