I decided to retire in search of freedom. But then, what the hell is this? “Nice to meet you. My name is Paheren von Dekulan.” Goddammit… Isn’t it a bit much for the head of a noble house to personally come after one runaway hound? Huh? “Return once more to the shadow of Dekulan.” What? Return to the shadow? Wow, what a tempting offer… my ass! After all the effort I put into deciding to retire, you think I’d become a dog again? It’s an inevitable death, but I will face it head-on! Better to die a free wyvern than live as a pampered dog! But then… “…?” I’m not dead? “Heheh. I see, I see how it is.” As the old saying goes, even a hundred years is too soon for a great sage’s revenge. I’ll show you the revenge of a true great sage! The return of a back-alley mage who started out as a vagrant! (I'm just translating this, this novel and all its rights belongs to the Author: 카이로스)

“Life is nothing but a cruel game… and we are its unwilling players.” — Ethan Heart --- After living a miserable life cornered from every direction, Ethan expected nothing good from the world anymore. He was a failure—good at nothing. A burden. Treated like human trash by society. And yet… he was exceptional at one thing. Games. That single talent earned him a name as the owner of one of the most prominent games streaming channels in the scene. Sheltered within his safe space as a gaming addict, Ethan never imagined his life would be turned upside down— The moment he became the first person in history to finish the impossible game… Ordeal. A dark Souls-like RPG with brutal, unforgiving difficulty and a living world that punished players for every mistake. “I saw the ending to the game no one was able to clear. But, when I came to my senses, I was inside of the game” The story of Ordeal was one of despair. The Apocalypse descended. And the Night Lord shattered the Light into fragments. The Curse of Night spread across the world, corrupting all living things—twisting them into grotesque abominations known as Night Walkers, monsters that ravaged everything in their path. In this ruined world, a select group of humans awakened powers resembling game systems. To survive, they must slay monsters, absorb souls, and grow stronger in a merciless world that devours the weak. --- Ethan became the final summoned player. Forced to walk through Ordeal once again— This time not as a gamer… But as a participant. He must reach the ending that none before him could attain. “No matter how impossible it seems… I will conquer this game...!” Armed with complete knowledge of the world’s secrets, the instincts of a veteran player .. And the forbidden pact he forged with a Devil .. Ethan begins his journey. --- Blessings obtained: [The Legendary Weapons Master] [Class Change at Will] [The Demon’s Body] [The Blood of the Old Gods] [Insight of the Wise Raven] [Aura of the Lord of Night] With the ability to forge weapons from the souls of those he kills .. each imbued with terrifying ash of war , Ethan becomes the Legendary Weapons Master. But every deal has a price. Each blessing he gained came with a curse. And now, his body is a vessel for darkness. Can Ethan achieve what no living being has ever accomplished? Or will he become just another soul swallowed by the Night? --- Tags: #Evolution #System #NoHarem ... discord: https://discord.gg/uNrXRgS3Xb

My name is Yotsuba Mahiro, and I am a transmigator. I was sent to The Irregular at Magic High School world by an otherworldly transmission ambassador, and incidentally became a Coordinator Magician for the Yotsuba Family. Besides having a pair of eyes that can copy any magic and martial arts, perhaps his biggest backer is his cheap mother, Yotsuba Maya. After fifteen years in the dark Fourth Research Lab, this cheap mother suddenly gave him a major task— “Although you are the Fourth Research Lab’s Coordinator Magician, you are also my child.” “Therefore, it is also your duty to bear a high-quality successor for the Yotsuba Family.” Isn't it just about continuing the family line? That's a simple matter. Are the bloodlines of the Ten Master Clans and the Hundred Families enough?

Summoned into a war between humans and demons, Eiden Cross is not hailed as a hero. He is tested. Found useless. And thrown to the front lines as expendable infantry. He dies within minutes. Then wakes up in the summoning chamber. Alive. Unchosen. Unblessed. With the memory of how he died. There is no system. No divine guide. No second-chance reward. Every death resets him to the day he was summoned. But the reset is not free. His thoughts slow. Sleep erodes. The battlefield shifts. And the enemy begins to adapt. As the Empire advances toward the Demon Castle and its promises of victory, Eiden realizes something far worse than dying— The war is not repeating. It is learning. And the more he survives, the more visible he becomes. In a campaign built on disposable soldiers and engineered triumphs, survival is not power. It is exposure. How many times can one man outlast the same battlefield— before the battlefield starts hunting him back?

[Main Quest: The Sovereignty of Aethelgard.] [Objective 1: The Conquest of the Three Dark Sovereigns.] [Objective 2: The Subjugation of the Four Light Monarchs.] However, Ozriel alone is incapable of such a feat and granted a slave system that gives him the ability to enslave both Heroines and Villainesses, Ozriel who trusts no one is forced to build trust with his enslaved partners to grow stronger and complete his mission.

When the System descended upon Earth, Arthur Suryawanshi was ready. He had read every manhwa, memorized every trope, and prepared for his moment to become an SSS-Class hero. But while the rest of humanity received swords, staves, and fireballs, Arthur received something else. He didn't get a Weapon. He got a Budget. [Class: MANAGER] [Role: Administrator of the Tutorial Floor] Trapped in the control room while the rest of the world fights for survival below, Arthur realizes the truth: The Apocalypse isn’t a battle; it’s a business. And he is the first employee. With 500 Creation Points (CP), he must design the perfect Tutorial. Too easy? The System penalizes him. Too hard? Every human dies, and he fails. Armed with a calculator, a modification menu, and a budget that’s barely enough to afford a starving Goblin, Arthur has to manage the end of the world. Welcome to the Tutorial. Please try not to die.

Do you believe in reincarnation? Some people would say yes, while others would say no. But what if it truly existed? Surely, everyone—especially those who felt like failures in life—would wish for another chance to live, right? *** Merlin Ken, a renowned editor, died while reviewing the raw draft of a popular novel titled “The Lost Hero.” But instead of moving on to the afterlife, he awoke to find himself reincarnated inside the very novel he had been editing! Worse yet, he wasn’t the protagonist—he was just an extra character with the same name, fated to become nothing more than a stepping stone for the main character. Determined to survive, Merlin resolved to defy fate by breaking the novel’s plot! By chance, a mysterious system appeared before him to help! As time passed, however, Merlin began to notice strange deviations—events that never existed in the original story. "[Ding! The first mission has been released! Awaken your Guardian Spirit on Awakening Day, three days from now! Reward: 1x Special Talent Awakening Potion!]" "[Ding! Congratulations! You have awakened the Guardian Spirit of the Ancient Dragon Empress! The reward has been delivered!]" Merlin: “What!? That’s impossible! My Guardian Spirit was supposed to be trash! How did it become an extraordinary figure instead!? Someone explain this to me!” And so, Merlin’s journey to change his fate began… *** #Note: 1. This is my first novel, so it may not be perfect. I welcome any feedback or criticism, and I’ll do my best to listen and improve. 2. The main character is a single man who has never had a partner. I’ll try to make his interactions with the heroines feel natural and reasonable. 3. This story follows the harem genre, but on a small scale—around four or five heroines. Not every female character will become the MC’s partner. The romance will develop at a steady pace, neither too fast nor too slow. 4. At the start, the MC will be a bit naive since he comes from the modern world and still holds onto his moral principles. But over time, he will adapt and become ruthless when necessary. 5. There will be no NTR, yuri, or similar elements. This will be a straightforward story. Thank you for reading, and I hope you’ll support this novel! #Tags: #Action, #Fantasy, #Adventure, #Romance, #Magic, #Political, #Anti-Hero, #Harem, #Reincarnation, #Dragon, #Academy, #Handsome-Male-Lead, #Beautiful-Female-Lead, #Conspiracy, #Magic, #Elves, #Yandere, #ObsessiveCharacter

"The masterminds are cooler than heroes," I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game. Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit. Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not? *** [Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.] What? [Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.] Wait, what?! [Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.] And, why would I do that?! [Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.] Why would I save him?! [The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?] Ah! I give up... It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things. In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker. I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need? Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though. I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse! Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is... [Failure: Destruction of the World.] It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped. If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing. [Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.] "If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne." And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.
