From Zero to Stardom: The Radiant Rebirth

Charlie is a nobody. In the small, forgettable town of Maplewood, Charlie barely exists. His days are spent in a haze of lethargy, slumped on a basement couch that smells faintly of regret. His body, soft and bloated, seems to mirror the weight of his apathy—a monument to years of bad decisions and the crushing inertia of laziness. His parents look at him with disappointment, his classmates avoid him like a bad smell, and the girls, even the kind ones, can barely disguise their pity. He’s bullied, mocked, and ignored, but Charlie doesn’t care. Not really. Or so he tells himself. Until one day, a moment so small and humiliating it shouldn’t matter tears open the carefully constructed wall of indifference he’s built around himself. For the first time in years, Charlie feels something stir deep inside—a spark of something raw, terrifying, and undeniable. Then, one night, everything changes. A system appears, a voice in his mind that speaks of transformation, power, and redemption. It offers him a choice: to stay as he is and sink deeper into the void of his existence, or to rise—literally—and reshape himself, body and soul. The system promises him a path, but it won’t be easy. To shed the weight of his old self, Charlie must first face the physical and emotional burdens he’s carried for so long. The path is brutal, filled with trials that test his mind, body, and spirit. But as Charlie begins to claw his way out of the pit of mediocrity, he discovers a world beyond Maplewood—a world of incredible challenges, impossible bodies, and a system that rewards transformation. The ultimate prize? A body forged by effort, determination, and resilience—a body of iron, plasma, and even the golden brilliance of the sun. But each step comes with its own cost, and the system’s promises may hide more than they reveal. Can Charlie rise above the weight of his past, or will the weight of the world crush him once and for all? I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com

I Am The Only Witch Hunter

Story rotates around killing witches, training and gaining power, grafting mutation (Owl's Night Vision, Bat's Echolocation, Gecko's Wall Climb, etc.), gathering herbs and creating concoctions, socialising (unfortunately) to buy needed materials for base-buiding. --- Hunt. Graft. Evolve. That was the core idea of a witch hunter. By grafting mutations from animals and supernatural beasts, the witch hunter ascended his own body, adding more and more power to his flesh. Sir Siderius Satterblade, a Master Witch Hunter in old age, used a Forbidden Alchemical Seal to transfer his soul to another man in another world. Aethelgard, a society ruled by witches and benefitted only to witches. Snow, a circus boy, was a victim to this society and he sworn vengeance to those that did him wrong. The circus boy traded his body and soul to Siderius for the hope of revenge. --- The MC will NOT become monstrous. The MC stays relatively human with unique appearance traits (black irises, pointy ears, white hair,...) Witches in this novel are irredeemable. Not sexy witches but disgusting and evil witches. (Well maybe a little bit hot because of their magic) MC will not accept nor 'conquer' any witches. Just straight killing. NO ROMANCE. NO HAREM. This man is nothing but a pure killing machine and survivalist. MC is ruthless but not heartless, still save people he deemed useful. NO FACE-SLAPPING NOR SHOWING OFF. MC only cares about power and survival. NO HIDING AS THE WEAK. NO ATTACHMENTS. NO WORKING TOGETHER. MINIMUM SOCIALISING. He's a lone witch hunter. Current Releasing Schedule: 1 chapter/per day Releasing Time: 7:00 AM (GMT+8)

The Exiled Merchant

Between one heartbeat and the next, Ren's life shattered—and a new one began in its place. Waking beneath a sky of swirling indigo clouds, Ren finds himself in a body that is not his own, with memories that feel like they belong to someone else. His name is the only anchor he has, but even that feels like a lie. The world around him is a tapestry of wonder and terror: rivers that shimmer like molten glass, forests that pulse with life, and shadows that whisper of ancient, hungry things. Magic flows through this land like blood through veins, sustaining hidden kingdoms and drawing monsters from the depths of the wilderness. Alone, with no allies and no way to return to his own world, Ren must navigate this strange and perilous realm. But survival is only the beginning. Whispers of a prophecy speak of a stranger who will either save or doom this world, and Ren's arrival has not gone unnoticed. As he struggles to piece together his fractured identity, he becomes a pawn in a game of power between rival factions who seek to use him for their own ends. With each step, Ren uncovers fragments of his past and the secrets of this new world. But the more he learns, the more he realizes that his presence here is no accident. To find his way home, he must embrace the magic within him—a power that could be his salvation or his undoing. In a world where trust is as rare as true names, Ren must decide who to believe, who to fight, and who to become. For in this land of beauty and danger, the line between hero and monster is as thin as the blade of a sword.

Naruto: the Uchiha Rules the World

“Kindness built upon others’ suffering is the most hypocritical kind of kindness.” — Uzumaki Kushina ——— A bloodstained Uchiha boy was carrying three human heads, walking toward the main gate. All three heads wore masks, their faces unrecognizable. This boy was Rengoku, who had rushed back from the Kusagakure after being rescued by Muku and Ryuzetsu. He exchanged one piece of intel for a special rapid treatment. He didn’t dare to stop, not even to change clothes, and headed straight for Konoha. Rengoku arrived at the village gate, and gatekeepers Kamizuki Izumo and Hagane Kotetsu immediately stepped forward to confirm his identity. “Uchiha Rengoku, mission in the Kusagakure,” While flipping through the file in his hand, Hagane Kotetsu glanced at the heads. “Did something unexpected happen?” ——— “Looks like I made it in time,” Hearing the clan meeting had just ended, Rengoku also let out a breath of relief. He had been rushing all the way, not even changing clothes, and finally made it back before the night of the clan extermination. The Uchiha clan meeting had already concluded. Konoha had already learned from Itachi about Uchiha’s planned coup. Danzo had probably already given Itachi the order to annihilate the clan. Itachi was likely contacting Tobi in the past few days, preparing to take action. But since he had made it back in time, there was still a chance to gamble. ——— Rengoku, this was just the beginning. As long as he protected the Uchiha clan, the clan members would provide him with an endless supply of chakra. The rise of the Uchiha was the path to his own strength. He would ultimately become the god of the Uchiha. And even, the GOD OF THIS WORLD. ═❀═ITS A TRANSLATION═❀═ RAW: 火影忍者:宇智波统治世界
