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! ******** every 100 Power Stones = 1 Extra Chapter! Every 150 Golden Tickets = 2 Extra Chapters! A Castle = 2 extra chapter!

I'm the Absolute Buff Master

—WEBNOVEL SPIRITY AWARDS 2026 ENTRY— Gareth Mourne is 16 years old with a sick obsession: Endless Tower. An RPG where a colossal 50-floor tower appeared out of nowhere. Each floor houses a raid — the only way to face the corresponding boss and push toward the world's salvation. Because if all fifty floors aren't conquered… the tower itself will come crashing down from the sky, obliterating everything beneath it. But the Tower doesn't wait patiently. Far from its shadow, strongholds appear: cracks spawned by the Tower itself that vomit monsters without rest. If they aren't wiped out, progress slows to a crawl. Gareth knows this. He knows it because he's beaten the game more times than he can count. He doesn't play for fun. He plays for glory. He plays to shatter his own records. Every run faster. Every route more optimized. Every buff stacked to an absurd limit. The community gave him a name: Mourgare, the BuffMaster. The night he finally breaks his best time… he falls asleep. And wakes up in a world he recognizes. A world he's convinced can't be real. Believing it's all a lucid dream, Gareth acts without fear of consequences — sabotaging himself in the process and completely destroying his reputation. Until he realizes it's all real. And then he decides something simple: if this world is Endless Tower… he'll conquer it the way he always has. Alone. And when he defeats the first boss solo, the name Mourgare will be etched into the sky — and as his reward, he'll receive his System. With a Special Class that fits him like a glove. [Buff Master] This time, it isn't about breaking a record. It's about leaving his alter ego at the very top.

The Dragon's Heart: Unspoken Passion

To the world, Princess Ilaria of Caelwyn is a bride of duty. To her heart, she is a woman desperately chasing the love of the husband who will not look her way. All she ever wanted was for him to care; for him to turn his gaze toward her with the same fervor she carried in her heart. No matter how many times he pushed her away, no matter how cold the silence between them became, she never gave up. Not once did she allow herself to see him as someone unworthy of her love. To her, he was always worth it. And when love at last took root, when it bloomed against every storm that tried to tear them apart; when two hearts finally found each other and dared to beat as one… fate, as cruel and merciless as it is, reminded them that there were forces even love could never conquer. --EXCERPT-- Levan pressed his lips to her temple, his lips trembling as though the kiss itself might shatter him. One hand cradled her face with the kind of gentleness he had never shown anyone, while the other threaded weakly through her hair, trying futilely to soothe the sobs wracking his wife's body. His breath break unevenly, his eyes were shut tight, as if by closing them he could pretend this moment would never come. As if the world might let them stay this way forever. As if the reality of it all could be discarded just so that they could live however they wanted. He let his mouth fall against her cheek and linger there, tasting the salt of her tears as though they were his own. He did not move for a long while… because if this sorrow was the final piece of her he was allowed to carry, he wanted to etch it into his very soul. He wanted to remember the way she shook in his arms. He wanted to remember the sound of her muffled cries. He wanted to remember the warmth of her skin pressed so desperately against him. He wanted to remember her as his wife; his beloved. "Live, my love," he whispered, his voice raw and breaking, the words choking out of him like a prayer he could barely force past his throat. He buried his face against her hair so she would not see the tears spilling freely down his cheeks. "Even if it's far from me… live." --×-- >> Tags: [soft comfort • fluff • VERY slow-paced • angst • sweet • romance • slow burn • comedy • fantasy] >> Here if you like SLOW BURN angsty romance. >> Main conflict starts wayyy later. >> Word count per chapter: 1.5k ~ 2.3k

One misstep could cost her life, yet the stakes only grow higher with every encounter. With courage, intelligence, and the growing mastery of her powers and cards, Milla pushes forward.

And Milla Ravewood intends to be among them.

Abstract-One. Ruler System

[Scene: Open Sea – Day] The waters within a hundred meters vanish instantly, evaporated by the sheer force of a collision. A wide, hollow, waterless space emerges, eerily calm yet brimming with tension. El-Mond is rocketed back by the colossal beast, plummeting toward the ocean floor. The impact shatters the seabed beneath him. The waterless void collapses back into the sea, swallowing the space he momentarily occupied. El-Mond coughs blood, his body trembling from the collision, but his eyes burn with unyielding determination. Inner monologue (text floating near him in jagged font for intensity): "This… this is beyond anything I've faced… both in my past life and now. If I hold back even a little… I WILL DIE! And I refuse!. Not now! Not ever!" He catapults himself upward with Tremendous force, shattering the seabed further. His hands stretch toward the beast. Void blood forms instantly, a dark, pulsating orb the size of a bowling ball, shooting straight at the colossal creature. The beast retaliates with a barrage of tentacle strikes, each moving at nanosecond speed, slicing the air toward El-Mond. El-Mond's body moves like liquid up, down, left, right, weaving through the enormous tentacles while hundreds of void blood strikes erupt from his hands, vaporizing chunks of the beast's skin. Sound FX floating around the strikes: CRASH! SHATTER! WHOOSH! He bursts above the beast again, letting out a blood-curdling scream, raining myriads of void blood strikes, like a hailstorm of destruction. Even as dust and smoke blind him, the strikes continue. A minute passes. El-Mond finally stops, breathing heavily, pale, drained… yet ignoring his pain. He peers down. His eyes widen in shock: The beast's countless wounds are healing, at an alarming rate, the holes closing by the Second!. As if time itself conspires against him. "What is this!? How… is it… healing!? Eldred… how did the emperor powerhouses kill the other one?!" Eldred, hovering beside him, solemnly replies: "Master… according to the scrolls and legends… after the beasts took a fatal strike, it sank into the sea. The emperor powerhouses, exhausted and wary of each other, assumed it dead, as its energy vanished." El-Mond grits his teeth, fury written across his face: "Cowardly bastards! DAMMIT!" His eyes narrow, focus sharpening: "It either dies… or I do. and like hell!. I'm not planning to." He stretches his hand toward the beast, summoning every ounce of energy, but Visual cue: El-Mond is engulfed in black, starry energy, his body like the night, filled with the brilliance of the stars, his hair turning cloudywhite, eyes blue like the ocean. The beast lunges again. Tentacles appear behind him in a blink, but El-Mond vanishes and reappears directly before the beast. The colossal beast recoils, fear creeping into its monstrous form for the first time. "Fear of erasure… fear of being wiped from all realms…" El-Mond raises a hand, voice commanding: "BE GONE!" The sea splits in three massive strokes of energy, ripping the beast into three sections. But El-Mond's night form collapses, unconscious. He plummets. "Master!? Master! Wake up! It's still alive!!" Eldred screams frantically. The beast begins reassembling itself, jaw opening wide to swallow El-Mond whole End of scene – tension at its peak, Think its good?. Start from chapter 1.
