I don't expect many people to have read the story, so I am doing my best to make it as understandable as possible. You shouldn't need to have read the story but, it certainly would help if you have. I don't plan on including anyone that was in Richard's (the cannon's mc) harem or really interfering in Richard's overall story since it is so insular and doesn't effect the world as a whole in a super significant way early on. Our MC is born five years before the Conon MC.

Reincarnated To Evolve My Bee Empire

"Now, go forth, my mortal champion! Conquer this world—or else!" I lived a painfully average life and died by a stupid, stupid accident, but a goddess interfered, giving me a second chance in another world. There, I became royalty—the lazy kind with almost no obligations, free to live in peace and luxury for the rest of my days. Sounds like a dream, right? In reality, it was anything but—because I became *BEE* royalty. A Drone Bee, doomed to die of old age in 2 months! (A humanoid bee, thankfully, but still a bee in all the ways that matter.) The only way to increase my lifespan is to develop and grow my bee colony—a deadly task in a vicious world like this one. There are murderous insect monsters, colossal beasts trampling the earth, other civilizations, natural disasters, and the bitchy patron goddess who absolutely hates me. But as long as I have my brains, my bees, and the powerful genes my system gives me, my Bee Empire will be unstoppable! === For those who want to know more: This is a wholesome comedic story, but it has some dark moments. The focus is on kingdom building, survival as an empire, and interacting with MC’s beautiful bee wife and adorable bee daughters. The bees are all humanoid (see pictures) and human-sized. However, they are still bees in their ways of life and mentality. Although there’s a system, real growth comes from putting effort and time. Nothing happens in an instant in this story, unless it’s trouble. MC acts like an idiot sometimes (oftentimes), but he’s not actually stupid-stupid. When it comes to strategic decisions, he uses logic and reason. Even if you might disagree with it. Also, there will be no smut (ecchi is a fair game), incest, NTR, harem or BL. === Discord is up! Find it at -> https://linktr.ee/Garessta Updates: 2 chapters/day, right after the reset (with a 5% chance of running late). Reply to author's pinned review if you have questions. Also, although I realize the futility of this aim (at least right now), if this novel reaches top 15 golden ticket ranking (and stays there for a few days, obv), I will mass release 10 extra chapters! (within 30 calendar days)

The Last Godfall

They tell me I am Vencian Vicorra, third son of a noble house. They tell me I'm a prodigy: brilliant, gifted, destined for greatness. They tell me I have everything a man could want: wealth, status, a perfect life waiting to unfold. They're wrong. I am Luke, and I woke up in this body with someone else's memories and someone else's life. Now I wear his face, carry his thoughts, and must navigate a world I never belonged to while his family crumbles around me. His father stands accused of treason. His brothers desperately search for evidence to save their house from disgrace. And everyone expects me, the golden son, to find the answers that will preserve the Vicorra name. But I'm no prodigy. I'm a fraud stumbling through noble politics and ancient mysteries, trying to solve a conspiracy I barely understand. The ritual materials hidden in my room whisper of darker purposes, and I can feel something vast and hungry watching from the shadows. To survive, I must become the man everyone believes I am. I must save a family that isn't mine, prove the innocence of a father I've never met, and uncover truths that powerful enemies would kill to keep buried. Because if they discover what I really am, if they learn that their golden son is gone, then everything I've fought to protect will be lost. And I'll lose the only life worth living I've ever known. ==== Hi everyone! Thanks so much for checking out my first novel. I’m still learning, and I’m grateful for any thoughtful feedback—if something feels off, I’d genuinely love to hear about it. If you enjoy the story, that’s wonderful. If it wasn’t quite your style, I still appreciate you giving it a try. Thank you for your time and your support.

Hallyu Director's Chronicle

(Asian Themes) Lee Jihoon, a brilliant film director renowned for his innovative storytelling and cinematic mastery, meets an untimely demise at the height of his career. However, instead of fading into oblivion, he finds himself reborn in the year 2006, inhabiting the body of a notorious chaebol heir from the powerful Lee family—a world far removed from the film sets he once called home. With memories of the future and insider knowledge of both the film and entertainment industries, Jihoon sees this as his second chance—not only to redefine Korean cinema but to reshape the K-pop industry before it spirals into its darkest scandals. However, his new identity comes with an unexpected burden: the ruthless succession battle within the Lee family. Rather than becoming a pawn in the family’s cutthroat power struggle, Jihoon makes a bold decision—to step away from the fight for corporate control and instead pursue what he does best: filmmaking. With his wealth and influence as a chaebol heir, he sets out to revolutionize the entertainment industry, challenge the oppressive systems controlling idols, and craft a legacy that will change the course of Hallyu forever. A thrilling tale of ambition, artistry, and reinvention, Hallyu Director’s Chronicle explores the hidden struggles behind Korea’s entertainment empire, where one man’s vision, courage, and past life wisdom could change the fate of an entire industry—if he can survive long enough to see it through.
