Corpse Flower—a failed experimental super-soldier enhancement drug that caused the undead outbreak. Disguised—or rather, misused—as an effective morning-after pill, Corpse Flower turned incompatible women into the first undead, spreading the outbreak across the world and plunging the 21st century into a dark age. But even the darkest cloud has a silver lining. Among those who survived were women compatible with Corpse Flower. The drug turned them half-undead, granting them strength equal to genetically enhanced super-soldiers. The Energy stored in their wombs also gave them access to supernatural abilities. The women who claimed the title of Corpse Flower weren't the only ones who rose up to fight the threat of the evolving undead. Chosen men, through love and lust, earned the title of Alpha, gaining temporary power by being infected through intimacy with their half-undead lovers. And to bring hope and salvation, certain girls exist whose blood holds the power to turn the tide of the war against the undead—girls known as Lycoris.

Using his medical skills, Yue Mingxuan starts to change his fate, while the proud prince seems more and more unwilling to let him go. He wanted to survive. With love wasn’t part of the plan.

"Special Admission, Rank 1." That was the title on the golden invitation I threw into the trash three months ago. Back then, I was the Crime Lord of Oakhaven. I had money, territory, and an ego that touched the sky. Why would a King lower himself to attend a school? I was arrogant. I was foolish. And I paid the price. It took less than an hour for a single knight to turn my criminal empire into a graveyard. He didn't just defeat me; he ignored me. I was an ant beneath the boot of a god. Broken and desperate, I used my last asset: a golden letter granting me entry to Zenith Imperial Academy as "Special Admission Rank 1." It’s a lie. I’m not a prodigy. I’m a fraud with no foundation, surrounded by the strongest heirs in the Empire who want to see me bleed. I can’t cast their spells. I can’t hold their weapons. But I can steal their lives. My Authority is [Usurper]. While they study theory, I steal reflexes. While they practice honor, I copy trauma. I am not here to learn. I am here to hunt. My targets are the "Four Calamities"—four women who hold powers strong enough to rewrite reality. They think I’m their peer. They don’t know I’m the parasite waiting to hollow them out. I’m going to make them mine. Discord: https://discord.gg/FK9GfrSjtb

Betrayed. Humiliated. Left with nothing. On the night when everything collapsed, a bolt of lightning changed his fate. [System Activated] From that moment, his life turned upside down. Spend money to gain power. Complete tasks to grow stronger. Upgrade abilities beyond human limits.

And his goal? To become the world's first SSS-Ranker.

In a world where the Goddess grants elemental HEARTS to build Wardens and keep other realms in check, Killian received none of her blessings. While his twin brother became a Lightning prodigy celebrated by the state, Killian was branded a Null—a stain to his prestigious family. But on the day of his final testing, the crystal didn't reject him. It malfunctioned. Awakening a forbidden power no one had ever wielded, Killian becomes the host of the Void—an anomaly that doesn't cast magic, but devours it. [Killian Dominic.] [Element: Void] [Objective: Survive the Sun.] [Reward: Void Ascension.] It was a power to devour every element and wield it as his own, but the Void element had never been owned before so it came with no handbook. Now hunted by the very state he swore to protect, Killian must hide his power behind a D-Rank facade while traversing the realms and leveling up. But the Warden's Log knows the truth. The realms aren't prisons for monsters; they are farms for the Gods. And the Void is hungry. From the academy's bottom feeder to the Monarch of lost realms, Killian will conquer the high-ranked realms everyone fears. He will ally with the enemies humanity slaughters. And when the Gods come to collect their harvest, he'll be waiting to eat them too. [Warning: Anomaly Detected.] [The Jailers are now the Prey.] Tags: #level-up #fastpaced #awakening #evolution

Amara, a wealthy aristocrat's well-bred daughter with a secret to hide, is thrown into despair when her world is suddenly shattered after discovering she isn’t the Caldwells' biological daughter. It was incredibly convenient for her father to discard years of love, devotion, and family ties, quickly sending her as a marriage tribute to a Werewolf Prince after receiving an invitation that, according to the Peace Treaty between Werewolves and Humans, required one of his daughters. It no longer mattered that she wasn’t truly a Caldwell, nor that she was already in love with someone else. So, on the night of her planned elopement with her lover, her fate with the monster was ruthlessly sealed. Forget that the Alpha Prince is a cursed monster—yet, why is he always in her face, treating her like his perfect plaything to pass the time? But most importantly, if he truly doesn't care about her, why do those who cross her suddenly disappear or get punished? — Excerpt: Amara could feel the tension in the way Alexander stood before her—the restraint in his silence, the weight of his attention pressing against her body. He shouldn’t be this close to her after cornering her against a tree. “Do you know what happens when I want something?” he asked, his voice dangerously controlled. Her breath trembled, but she shook her head. “I—I don’t know.” “I take it.” Amara inhaled sharply as she lifted her gaze to meet his dark, conflicted eyes, burning with something that made her heart stutter. “Then why haven’t you?” she whispered. His gaze dropped briefly to her lips. “Because if I cross that line,” he said, “I won’t stop.” “Then cross it.” Her voice was barely audible. Instantly, the restraint in Alexander’s eyes shattered. He lowered his head and claimed her mouth in a desperate, hungry kiss.

Humanity awakens in response—some with sparks, some with power capable of leveling continents. Aris Ashborne was born into that world. His problem? He was too damn cute to be taken seriously! Media companies treat him like heaven's favourite mascot. Fellow awakened dote on him as if he isn't ranked among the strongest humans alive. Confessions pile up. Stalkers appear. The title "Cutest Awakened" follows him everywhere. No one seems interested in how he earned his S-rank. It's hard to command fear when people are asking what skincare routine you use. Oh well. Being underestimated has its own perks too. Truth is, Aris Ashborne is one of the few people that has transcended the ranking system entirely. He is among the few that could very well rule the world if he wanted to. But for now, he is contempt with being called a cutie. After all, monsters don't always look the part.

Fifty years ago, rifts appeared in the world. These rifts spewed spirit beasts, ancient artifacts, and fragments of lost civilizations. The human race brought forth Talent Sigils and built guilds and families for survival. These families include one of the oldest awakened bloodlines, known as "The Long Clan," said to trace its lineage from the dragons of antiquity. However, rivalries also exist within great clans. His name is Long Hao, the son of a dwindling lineage family who is ridiculed for being the embarrassment of the clan. It is not impossible for people to believe that he has only mediocre talent because the clan already labels him as the failure who does not deserve the name dragon. But on the night before the awakening ceremony, there is a prohibited awakening within him. > [Eclipse System… Activating [Forbidden Talent Detected. Origin: Dragon-Eclipse Bloodline It seems that *Heaven’s Law* itself has made Long Hao wields forbidden talent, a skill feared not only by humans but also by the heavens. The day that follows, the Awakening Stone has no talent, and the world laughs at him. But Long Hao just smiled. When the first dungeon appears out of nowhere in his high school, chaos breaks out. "The trash of the Long Clan" emerges and displays power that shocks the city. He will overcome his destiny. Above the guilds. Above ancient clans. Beyond God's own command. A dragon ought to fly across the nine heavens, and he, named Long Hao, shall smash those who come to get in his way. A dragon should soar across the nine heavens— and Long Hao will shatter anyone who dares stand in his path.

In the book, the original protagonist's parents are deceased, and she is tricked into the Lin Family, where she works hard for three years under the title of elder sister-in-law. Three years later, her fiancé returns with the female lead whom he has married. The original protagonist is manipulated by the Lin Family into becoming their goddess daughter and continues to work hard. When the male and female leads face difficulties in starting their business, she is... Upon reading this, Jiang Cheng feels that a hundred "pah" are insufficient to quell her indignation. Once inside the book, Jiang Cheng carefully plots and ingeniously sets up a fake diary to tear down the Lin Family's facade. Assuming the persona of Jiang the Rebuker, she steps in directly. "All the abacuses in the world have been perfected by your Lin Family!" "Talking money harms feelings; without talking money, how do I know you have feelings!" "I am young; you are too old. There's a high probability you won't live to see me succeed. Have a good journey." Years later, Jiang Cheng, once seen by others as a weak and naive scapegoat, has transformed into an outstanding translator, offering her expertise to major factories to translate imported equipment, providing strategies, and becoming a prominent figure in the industry.

At this moment, they are not even qualified to be envious. * Jiang Cheng walks out of the airport and spots the tall Shen Que from afar. As her smile blossoms, she is suddenly embraced by two people. "Sister-in-law, I've missed you so much!" "Sister-in-law, you're finally back!"

In the year 2047, Earth is dying. Mana rot devours the oceans, cities sink into black sludge, and humanity clings to survival like rats in a collapsing cage. Kael Eze is nobody. A Level 1 Scavenger. A corpse hauler. A man who drags the dead for scraps while the world ends around him. Then the sky rips open. A cold, mechanical voice echoes in every surviving soul: [Final Calibration Complete] [Earth: UNSALVAGEABLE] [Sovereign Selection Protocol — Activated] [1 candidate chosen out of 8.4 billion…] Kael is selected. Not as a hero. Not as a savior. As the lowest possible thing: a Sovereign Candidate with 0.0001% authority. Thrown into the Infinite Staircase — the Throne of Ashes — where death is permanent, mercy is myth, and the first floor alone is rated ×7 difficulty. He awakens as an infant in a crib of blackened ribs. A six-winged nightmare calls him “little calamity” and laughs as ash-eaters scent fresh sovereign flesh. But something broken inside Kael wakes up too. [Hidden Trait: Soul Devouring Gluttony (EX)] Devour anything. Become anything. Regret nothing. From the weakest newborn king at the bottom of infinity, Kael begins a ruthless climb. He consumes gods, steals bloodlines, devours worlds, and carves his name into the fabric of broken realities. Betrayed by fate, hunted by ancient horrors, cursed by the very throne he claims — he doesn’t seek redemption. He seeks dominion. Because if the universe decided he was trash… then he’ll become the monster that devours the trash-heap entire. Weakest start. Highest stakes. No mercy. No limits. Only ashes… and the sovereign who rises from them. Will the last candidate become the Last Sovereign — or just another forgotten name in the void?

I've spent four years as a monster broker in the largest underground market in the world. Buy low, sell high, never ask what happens after the transaction. Simple rules. Clean money. Then my ability flagged a cage in the back of Hunter Alley as an error. Classification failure. First time in four years that had ever happened. I looked inside. There was a girl. Sixteen years old. Rope marks on her wrists. She looked at me and said one word. Please. That was three weeks ago. Since then I've learned that she isn't the only one. That someone has been running a procedure for five years that turns ordinary people into products the monster market will accept without question. That seventeen people have gone through it. That six of them didn't come out the other side. I've also learned that the man behind it has a sponsor nobody can identify. That a noble house is using the results for military research. That the Church is running a secret facility and attending every auction where a human specimen is registered. And that the leader of the most powerful criminal organization in the known world has put my name on a list. I'm nineteen. I have no money, no weapons, and no plan that doesn't have at least three ways to go catastrophically wrong. But the girl in that cage said please. And I've never been able to leave a mystery alone. The system sells people. I'm going to find out who built it.

“When you read these words, I am already dead…” “Please take good care of my last will and my ashes safe.” --------------------------------------------------- During the Third Great Ninja War, Kiyohara was nothing more than a disposable pawn, a true cannon fodder. He lived each day believing death could come at any moment—if not today, then tomorrow. But unexpectedly, he received the Last Will System. With it came the ability to obtain the will of himself who had died in different versions of the shinobi world. By fulfilling the last wishes of his other selves, he could inherit their abilities, even stack their talents upon his own! Thus, Kiyohara gained the support of countless versions of himself: “Anbu Captain Kiyohara” “Akatsuki Member Kiyohara” “Missing Nin Kiyohara” “Mizukage Kiyohara” “Uchiha Kiyohara” “Ōtsutsuki Kiyohara” --------------------------------------------------- “What? My future self dies just like that? Then I must avenge you all!” “Oh, infinite futures of mine, lend me your strength! ....
