40k word counts before lock Satou, an ordinary guy from modern-day Japan, suddenly dies in a freak accident, he expects to find himself in the afterlife—or maybe even reincarnated as a hero in a fantasy world, complete with flashy powers and a harem of admirers. But fate has other plans. Thanks to a pair of forgetful gods who accidentally left him stranded in the reincarnation stream, Satou is reborn as the weakest creature imaginable: a baby goblin. Now, trapped in a tiny, green body with stubby arms and a voice that only produces gibberish, Satou must navigate a harsh and unforgiving world where goblins are nothing more than cannon fodder. To make matters worse, he’s surrounded by other baby goblins who see him as their personal chew toy and an old goblin elder who believes he’s the key to an ancient prophecy. Oh, and there’s also the looming threat of something called the “special selection,” which sounds about as fun as a death match. But all hope isn’t lost. Satou discovers he’s been gifted with a unique and overpowered skill: Devouring. By consuming the flesh of other creatures, he can absorb their skills, abilities, and even their memories. The catch? He’s a baby goblin with no teeth, no strength, and no idea how to survive in a world where everything wants to kill him. With the help of his snarky system assistant, Sys, Satou must grow stronger, outsmart his enemies, and defy the odds to prove that even a goblin can rise to greatness. From clumsy baby goblin to potential goblin god, Satou’s journey is filled with humor, danger, and unexpected twists.

The war between gods should have ended with victory. Instead, Odin All-Father returns from Jotunheim carrying three children— one born of thunder, one born of frost, and one… whose origin even the gods cannot see. Reborn into the Marvel world as Odin’s third son, Alexander Ashborn Odinson grows beneath the golden halls of Asgard—quiet, observant, and far too calm for a child of gods. While Thor shines like lightning and Loki walks the edge of shadow, Alexander sleeps peacefully… as if the universe itself has agreed not to look at him. But silence does not mean weakness. Hidden beneath his innocent smile is a sign-in system, awakening powers drawn from worlds beyond gods and myths. Fire that should not exist. Wisdom that predates fate. A presence that makes even Yggdrasil bend its roots in protection. As Alexander grows, so do the questions. Why can divine authority not command him? Why do cosmic beings fail to notice his existence? And why does Odin—ruler of realms—hesitate when he looks upon his youngest son? In Asgard, laughter echoes and brotherhood is forged. Beyond it, the cosmos stirs—aware that something is missing. Because some flames are not meant to burn yet. And when the world finally dares to look at Odin’s third son… it may already be too late.

Meagor the cruel returned in Westeros on different body

In a future where money no longer exists, time decides who lives and who dies.

Kai was only five years old when his father saw the collapse coming. Branded a madman, he sold everything and invested in AI—saving his family when the world finally fell. Now nineteen, Kai lives in a society ruled by guilds, monsters, and dangerous zones created after the AI game world merges with reality. While others gain powerful skills, Kai receives nothing. No rank. No system blessing. No protection. But during a deadly college incident, Kai finds something far more dangerous than a skill—an ancient relic that allows him to create and shift weapons at will. In a world where time is currency and power decides fate, Kai will rise without the system’s permission. Because sometimes, the greatest threat… is the one the system failed to recognize.

Kaelen Veridian dies at sixty-five as the weakest Awakened in history—an F-rank “Blank” mocked by every race and discarded during the apocalyptic Void War. When the world crumbles and humanity falls, a final act of defiance triggers an impossible reaction: Kaelen accidentally copies a fragment of the sealed Creator’s divine artifact, granting him a second chance. He awakens fifty years in the past, on the day of his greatest humiliation at the Astral Peak Academy, young again—but still F-rank, with no class, no backing, and no visible skill. Yet the artifact’s intelligence, Machina, has fused with his soul and reveals the truth: Kaelen is the chosen Successor Vessel of the dead God, tasked to ascend and stop the Void Incursion before it begins. His lost SSS-rank ability reemerges in a new form: Adaptive Mimicry, a divine law disguised as a trash skill, capable of permanently copying abilities, traits, concepts, and eventually Authorities. To wield it, Kaelen must rebuild his frail body, subvert the academy’s hierarchy, and navigate a world that once crushed him—armed now with future knowledge, a ruthless survivor’s resolve, and a machine intelligence built to forge gods. But altering fate is never simple. Every mimicry creates ripples. Every divergence awakens predators that never noticed him in the first timeline—ancient clans, demi-god bloodlines, angels forged of light, demons of causality, and the remnants of the Creator’s enemies. The Void stirs earlier. The timeline destabilizes. The path of Ascension demands sacrifices no mortal was meant to bear. From academy gutters to divine battlegrounds, Kaelen must steal the building blocks of divinity, one fragmented skill at a time—until the weakest Blank stands as the last line between creation and annihilation. He once lived as a failure. Now he must rise as a god.
