Second Chance: A Dark Tale of Urban India

Hawkclaw
[Anti-Hero | Revenge story] "What the fu..?! I got transmigrated?" "Holy shit… A 44-year-old M!LF, a 25-year-old sister, a 21-year-old younger one, and twin cousins my age? And this idiot was adopted? Thank you, God. I swear I'm not wasting this second chance." 'So this fool was raised like a lamb…but they have no idea that this very lamb is about to turn into a lion.' ********************************************************** Meet, Riku Higashi, a notorious Japanese hacker on the run, dies tragically.  But fate isn't finished with him. He is reborn in India as an 18-year-old high schooler, Rohit with a brand new identity and a house full of tempting opportunities. Raised as the heir to a billionaire, Rohit soon discovers the truth: this life is not a gift, but a countdown. Once he turns twenty, he is meant to be disposed of. What begins as freedom quickly twists into tension. What his handlers fail to realize is that in his past life, Riku was no ordinary criminal. He was a master mind wanted by twenty-one nations—a wolf in sheep's clothing. Given the perfect opportunity, he can return every betrayal a thousandfold. This new life offers pleasure, power, and the tempting possibility of redemption. He could erase his criminal past and live in comfort, untouched by shadows. But fate has other plans. The very secret organization responsible for his death has resurfaced, haunting his path to power once more. As his past tightens its grip, Rohit must choose: hide behind a new face—or confront the darkness head-on. To the world, he could become a billionaire prodigy. To the underworld, a relentless hunter. And this time, he has everything to lose, and everything to take back. One thing is certain. His story will not be confined within a single nation’s borders.

Lazy Salvation

“The boogeyman of Outer Gods, protector of Earth, humanity’s last stand—Miratheris’s son has returned.” I was drowning in sloth. The color of life had drained from my eyes, leaving only shades of grey. Doing anything felt like punishment. Looking for a job? A laughable idea. I did everything I could to stay disconnected from reality. Gambling. Drinking. Even suicidal stunts. Anything to escape the numbness that clawed at my mind for even a second. But everything comes at a cost. I abandoned my family. Broke the heart of the only woman who ever loved me. And wasted every damn day like it didn’t matter. I became the kind of man society throws out with the trash. But life didn’t spare me. Not even when I hit rock bottom. Deceived, shackled, and sold into another world— I spent the rest of my days as a slave. Forced to fight monsters ripped straight out of myth. At the very end, all I could do… was wish. Just one more chance. One shot to make things right. … Born a prodigy, Ashen Hart moved through life like a golden boy. What others worked for, he mastered with ease. At first, it felt like a blessing. The validation, pride, and accomplishment felt sweet. But even honey spoils when you’re drowning in it. The more success he tasted, the more hollow it all became. And when a mysterious power awakened within him, letting him see moments into the future— The world lost all color. And then all meaning… Nothing could surprise him. Nothing could move him. He spiraled. Ashen threw it all away—ambition, love, purpose— and embraced the slow death of apathy. But fate wasn’t done with him. Kidnapped by a shadowy organization and forced into a hidden war, he learned a truth: he wasn’t special. He was fodder. Cannon meat to delay the inevitable. But somewhere, buried beneath sloth and cynicism, the genius stirred. The apathy rotted away. And Ashen Hart, the failure, became Ashen Hart, the wretched. The unkillable. From a discarded pawn to the final hope of mankind. And when it was over—when even the gods had fallen— he was left alone. At his dying breath, the Earth’s spirit, Miratheris, answered his plea. She rewound time, giving him one last shot. But not without a price. She kept his memories intact… and delayed their return just enough so his younger self could bear the weight. Ashen’s second life begins now— and the monsters, both within and beyond, are about to learn what regret truly feels like. ═══⟲══════⟲══════⟲═══ All chapters are unlocked.

The sign-in system rewarded her with multiple things, including houses, money, cars, and talent scrolls, which led her to the life of the richest lady in the world. She could sign in once a day. One morning, with her eyes groggily and blurry, Xuexia was welcomed by a holographic screen only she could see. Yes, like the ones in the novels and manga. Ding! Xuexia waves her hand in the empty air and mumbles, "Noisy, I told you to turn off the damn alarm, whoever owns it!" When a robotic voice lingered near her ears saying, Signed in successfully. Congratulations to the host, and you've received [1 Million RMB in cash!] Xuexia, who is currently in need of great money, was in disbelief as she looked at the words one million and laughed. "Heh~ even in my dream, I was wishing to receive free money. What nonsense, let's go back to sleep. Yue Xuexia was about to close her eyes back to sleep when the old touch screen phone near her pillow vibrates. Bzzt~ Bzzzzzt~ "Urg~ who the hell is calling now?" complained Yue Xuexia in her half-asleep state. She picked up the phone only to see a message notification saying the following words: [Your bank card account ending with 5567 had received a deposit transfer from XXXX at 6:45 am. You had received a 1 million deposit and your current saving balance is 1,003,000.00 RMB (Autumn Field landbank)] Yue Xuaxia mumbled in disbelief and said, "Fucking hell! This is awesome." Who doesn’t like free things?~' This lady wants it too!!!

Invading His Solitude.

Two rooms. A corridor. A house shared by two strangers who don’t seek each other, but watch each other in silence. He is distance. She is curiosity. And sometimes, indifference makes more noise than words.

Marvel: All My Incarnations Are S-Class Villainesses

Sumire never expected to wake up in the Marvel universe… as a beautiful girl. One look in the mirror, one thought of Thanos’ snap, and she already wanted out. Survival goal? Stay low, don’t get caught, live peacefully. Too bad she awakened the Villainess Simulation System. By causing chaos and harvesting negative emotions, she can summon powerful female avatars like Makima, Rize, Android 18, Annie, and more… though some choices feel a bit suspicious. As Sumire gets closer to these cold, domineering, and dangerously charming women, her original dream of being a macho man starts to crumble. Somewhere along the way… she starts enjoying it. Now fully embracing her role, she becomes a walking disaster among heroes and villains alike, summoning avatars, unlocking abilities, and wreaking havoc across the Marvel universe. Tony: She blew up my armor and sold it as scrap?! Thor: Why can that mage lift Mjolnir so easily?! Nick Fury: Even Hydra got infiltrated?! Thanos: Don’t look at me. I’m Miss Makima’s dog. And as everything spirals out of control, Sumire can only blink innocently: "I swear… I didn’t mean to break the world."

D&D: The Little Dragon Who Became a Ruthless Lord

"Although I was reborn as the weakest of the five-colored dragons, and transmigrated into a little female dragon, and had a disastrous start, at least I am a top-tier race. It's better than being reborn as a maggot, right?" Jona Velli looked at the pure white dragon scales covered by blood and dust, and was forced to accept the fact that she had inexplicably transmigrated to this magical continent and become a little female dragon because of drinking. "Now that I've come to this strange world, how can I not make a big splash? Hehehehe..." ………… Seeing the awakened power of time, Jona Velli was so excited that she almost jumped up and started spinning like a Thomas the Tank Engine. Time acceleration? No, no, no, that's not a good description at all. It should be renamed "Weekend". Time has forgotten? No, no, it should be renamed [Breaking Promises], hehehe~

I Just Wanted to Survive as an NPC, But Players Made Me a Saint

What should I do if I transform into a passerby NPC in the Novice Village who may die at any time? At first, Lily just wanted to survive and increase the player's favorability. She planned to use the power of the players to increase the strength of the NPCs who were not on good terms with her. Unexpectedly, she accidentally increased the favorability. From [the player's most solid backing] to [the lonely watcher at the border], and then to [the first saint in the turbid times of the empire]. Players give full play to their subjective initiative and lift her to the throne. In the 30th millennium of the empire, a former emperor of the empire who did not want to be named loudly accused in an interview with a newspaper. "That group of undead people rushed into the palace shouting friendship and bond, and forcibly put my crown on the head of Lily, the devil. It's really a sin!" Facing the accusation, Lily was extremely indignant. "How can I be a devil? From the beginning to the end, I have been promoting love and justice. Don't talk nonsense with your eyes open... It's hard for me too. Sometimes I look for my own reasons. Have I been a good person for so many years? Why do those undead people only hit you and not me?"
