I had just finished one of the best games I have ever played, only to look up and find I was no longer in my room, but kneeling in the bloody sand of a colossal, sun-baked fighting arena. How did this happen? How did things go from playing a video game to being transported into the body of a background character within the game, who was exonerated and abandoned due to not having as much magical potential as the rest of the family? …A character who was doomed to die a very horrible death right at the beginning of the game?

Death, it seemed, had not finished with him yet. Once, he had been ordinary. A fleeting life, brief and forgettable, swallowed by the silence that waits for everyone in the end. Then came magic. A second life shaped by whispered spells, candlelit libraries, and war hidden beneath the surface of the world. It ended in green light and agony, struck down by the curse of a Dark Lord whose name still lingered like poison in memory. He should have remained dead. Instead, he opened his eyes in New York City. Not his New York. A harsher one. A world balanced on the edge of catastrophe, where gods wore the faces of men, where monsters descended from the stars, and where humanity survived only by the fragile illusion that someone stronger would always arrive in time. The Marvel Universe did not care about ordinary people. And despite everything, he was still only a wizard. No wand. No allies. No place in a story already crowded with legends. Only knowledge of what was coming. Alien invasions. Hidden empires. Machines dreaming of extinction. And, somewhere in the distant dark, a titan waiting patiently to erase half the universe with the snap of his fingers. He did not ask for another life. But if fate insisted on giving him one more chance, then perhaps this time he would learn how to survive it. ------------------------------ Hey guys, I'm Aurelius D.

The story of a man reincarnated into the world of Xianxia with the System that make him able to cook godly food

In a shattered world, where its people live at the mercy of restless seas more than the comfort of solid land, and where power comes at a cost...while concepts like justice hold no weight against authority and strength… Across the vastness of its endless ocean, sails a madwoman—Neris—drifting into the unknown, chasing something even she cannot fully grasp. On the other side of this broken world, roams a man even more unhinged than her—Axel— seeking to claim what no one was ever meant to possess. What awaits them in their relentless pursuit? What trials and chaos will they carve through? And more dangerously ... what will happen when their paths finally cross… and they reveal to the world a fate far more terrifying than its past destruction? A fate that may lead it toward ruin… or something brighter .... depending entirely on her whim. A dual-protagonist story that follows the intertwining journeys of two unstable individuals, in a world shaped by fantasy, action, conspiracies, battles, and touches of love , humor and drama.

One life ended, and another began in the grey shadows of Wool’s Orphanage. But Patrik Rosier didn't come to this world to be a victim of fate. In a realm where a single word can shatter a mind and power is the only true currency, he quickly learned a bitter truth: morality is a luxury of the dead. Armed with an ancient name and a hunger for the forbidden arts, Patrik navigates a Wizarding World that is far from a fairy tale. There is no light or dark—only the strength to impose one's will and the cold reality that Magic is Might. --------------------------------------------------------------- DISCORD SERVER: https://discord.gg/tgdTNZYVKt Join my discord and influence the story - vote on upcoming chapters, share fanfics, and chat with other readers. --------------------------------------------------------------- PATREON LINK: https://www.patreon.com/PatrikWriter The shadows are shifting...

Ace Eros was just an ordinary gamer and webnovel reader, until a truck accident sent him into the world of the novel he had once read. But instead of becoming the protagonist or even a powerful villain, he finds himself reborn as a complete nobody. An extra with no screen time, no future, and worst of all… no real strength. His so-called Talent Ability, Command, doesn’t make him instantly stronger. Instead, it grants a high boost to the abilities of those who are bound to him and follow his orders. A powerful buff, but utterly useless when he is weaker than even the lowest-ranked students at the Academy. Thrown into a world where strength is the only law, Ace quickly learns that if he can’t fight, he’ll be crushed. Refusing to accept the fate of an extra, he turns to manipulation, grasping power as he could, deception, and blackmail, using his intelligence to twist the battlefield and everything to his favor. With the looming threat of world-ending catastrophes and prodigious heroes destined to take center stage, Ace must navigate the deadly hierarchy of the academy. He will recruit, betray, and outwit both heroes and villains, because in a world where power is everything, strategy is his only weapon. And one thing is certain, he refuses to die a nameless extra. Even more, he was determined to carve out a place for himself and began his ascension to power.

After a decade on the run, fleeing from a foreign King who would see his whole lineage exterminated, Dominic had nearly given up on ever having a normal life. But when he arrived in the Capital of Cygnia, where steam vehicles and Magitech had replaced traditional ways and old magics, he saw a chance to not only stop running, but perhaps get some vengeance for the fallen Dragonkin of the Wavemates Kingdom. However, fate has a way of making the simplest of dreams into something much more complex, as Dominic was about to learn firsthand. When Dragonkin and Bookworm Princesses meet, chaos is nearly guaranteed, and romantic sparks are bound to fly. (Intended to be read standalone, but set in the same multiverse as Reincarnated With a Summoning System and The First Legendary Beast Master) discord.gg/aokiaku #Fallen Prince #Royal Drama #dragon magic #manapunk #magitech

Dr. Killian spent his life mentoring unstable minds, until one of his patients killed him. His next life begins in a fantasy world he vaguely recognizes from the same patient’s ramblings about a novel Killian never bothered to pay attention to. Reborn as Atheline Sunblade, a high elf noble from a family second only to the throne, Killian discovers his original role in the story was insignificant: he was simply the man sent to capture the villainess runaway fiancée. Determined to avoid the plot entirely, Killian plans to live quietly. Unfortunately, fate seems to have a twisted sense of humour. Instead, he casually befriends what he assumes is a normal dark elf soldier visiting the elven kingdom. She’s intense, strangely curious about him, and appears far too often for his liking , but Killian doesn’t think much of it after all every Dark elf he heard of was pushy to begin with. Until a cultural misunderstanding and several extremely unfortunate assumptions lead to one catastrophic realization. The “soldier” he’s been talking to… is actually the Dark Elf Queen. And somehow, he accidentally proposes. To make matters even more fucked up, he got a system that basically gives him useless things. ..... It will have smut scenes and I will mark them for those who don't want to read them. AUTHORS NOTE. It's wise that you read it, you might get transmigrated into the book one day if you ignore it.

Lazare Bonaparte died with regrets. A shadow engineer and former commando, he watched his country surrender its technological sovereignty to American and Asian giants. He was a soldier in a losing war. But Fate—or a glitch in the universe—hit the reset button. Lazare wakes up on October 14, 1980. He is back to square one: a cold bed in a crumbling Parisian orphanage. He is poor, underage, and nobody takes him seriously. But he remembers everything. He knows the architecture of microprocessors that won't be invented for another decade. He knows the code for the viruses that will paralyze the world. He knows the coming market crashes, the wars, and the fatal weaknesses of his future enemies. No more following orders. This time, Lazare won't just endure History. He will write it. From the muddy markets of Paris to the golden halls of the Military Academy, from illegal garage labs to the secret boardrooms of the Defense Ministry, witness the brutal ascent of a boy who decided to build an empire on sand, and turn it into silicon. He doesn't want money. He wants absolute sovereignty. Welcome to Project VOLTA.

Fantasy, in most stories, is a chessboard where the game is over, people retreat and lick their wounds or celebrate victory. The mythical wheel of destiny begins its next cycle, and this one relies on the descendants of the previous game, maybe some who survived, but in general the board is already built, the pieces and their movements defined, our job is to contemplate the new game between good and evil. Overlord tries to break with this, the story focuses on the construction of this board, the various characters have a reason for living and existing, the work already exists in another language, I, as its author, just try to make more readers enjoy it. Elements such as romance will not appear here, characters of questionable behavior, violent, greedy, kind, human in themselves, you will find them, maybe magic theories. As I said, the novel is based on reason and the appearance of all the typical characters of epic fantasy literature.

Reborn as Prince Heixinggen of the Hohenzollern family's Swabian branch, he saw the coming storm of European turmoil and decided that Europe was no longer worth staying in. In East Africa, he seized land, organized immigration and development, laid the foundation through agriculture, and step by step, leveraged crises to achieve industrialization.

What happens when a master miniature builder gets thrust into a monster apocalypse with a puppet-summoning skill? "Turn my miniatures into real soldiers. Duh!" Said Adam Clay, the Lord Commander of Earth, with a wide grin as he snapped with his fingers. Power Armored Supersoldiers, Walker Crafts, War Machines, Stellar Arks, and Legions of Men-at-Arms all appeared around him in hordes, chanting the holy name of the Emperor of the Solarium. But that's a scene from the endgame, and here's how it began... What to Expect? A Progression LitRPG with action scenes, political intrigue, humor, RTS mechanics, kingdom building, crafting, summoning, and a magic system that tightens it all up, coming from the author of the 760+ chapters long Dragonborn Saga. Inspired by WH40K’s energy, but its own beast entirely. (so not a fanfic) While it is so, you can say it is the watered-down version for those who aren't willing to dip their toes in the original madness. Where else to find this Gem?

Cassian Rosier is a failure. A near-Squib in one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight families, he’s spent his life as the family’s punching bag... mocked, dismissed, and barely tolerated. But when a simple light spell becomes his last chance to prove himself, Cassian’s world shatters in a way none of them could have imagined. Because the Cassian they knew? He is gone. In his place is a man from another world... our world. A man with no magic but a lifetime of teaching behind him, and only the vaguest memories of a “Harry Potter” series he never bothered to read or watch. Suddenly trapped in a body with a ruined reputation and no real power, the new Cassian has one goal... to survive. When forced to give a lecture on magic, Cassian bluffs his way through by teaching Lumos... a spell he doesn’t know. But something strange happens. As hundreds of people learns from his lecture, mastery floods his mind. And then it happens again, an ancient variation of Lumos awakens, along with memories that don’t belong to him. Some memories are benign, illuminating secrets of long-forgotten magic. Others are sharp, dark, and dangerous... leaving him to wonder whether he is drawing on wisdom or inviting something far worse into himself. Now sent to Hogwarts as a professor, Cassian must juggle the expectations of his pureblood family, the suspicion of fellow teachers, and his own growing power. Every spell he teaches brings him closer to mastery... and to the ancient past that might consume him. A snarky, slow-burn power fantasy about an accidental professor who teaches magic too well, unlocks spells no one remembers, and juggles ancient memories, family politics, and students who might be the end of him. What to Expect -Light-hearted, snarky tone (Cassian’s dry humor carries the story). A reluctant but clever MC navigating Hogwarts, pureblood politics, and ancient magic. Progression fantasy elements: teaching magic makes Cassian stronger over time. Ancient spells come with lingering memories... some helpful, others unsettling. A competent teacher MC (no “bumbling fool” energy here, but plenty of witty one-liners). Slow-burn romance with a single female lead (Bathsheda Babbling). Exploration of Hogwarts daily life from a professor’s POV, with banter, levity, and political scheming. Content Warnings Mild swearing (Cassian has opinions and isn’t shy about sharing them). Family dysfunction and emotional manipulation (Rosiers gonna Rosier). Canon-typical prejudices (pureblood vs Muggle-born ideology), handled critically. Occasional darker themes tied to ancient spell memories. Slow-burn romance, no harem. No gratuitous gore or smut. Warning: May contain dangerous levels of sarcasm, accidental teaching competence, and the occasional romantic subplot you never signed up for. Proceed with tea.

Yo, it's The Unseen Scroll, had this plan since last year, and as a part of my new year resulotion, I had to post it, or I was a coward, a weakling. Anyway thanks for reading, I hope you like it, Happy New Year. Immortal. Lazy. Unbothered. After winning a glitched cosmic lottery, Zeke is reborn with an immortality skill and a system that gifts him absurd powers at random. Now he’s stuck in a world of deadly Towers, dungeon breaks, and overpowered Hunters—all he wants is to sleep in. Too bad the universe has other plans. A comedic LitRPG isekai for fans of overpowered MCs who can’t be bothered to save the world.

Shota Aizawa was a tired soul in his past life, the kind of man who’d rather nap through the apocalypse than save the world. Then he died… and got reincarnated into Naruto. Now he’s born in Sunagakure, the weakest of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. The land of sand, wind, and terrible employment benefits. But Shota has one simple dream: > “To live a lazy, peaceful life where no one bothers me.” Unfortunately, lazy lives require strong villages… and strong villages require strong shinobi. So, our man reluctantly decides to make both happen but not because he’s motivated. He’s just too tired to die again. Luckily for him, he’s got a cheat code: the Quirk “Erasure.” Yes, that Erasure. The same one that cancels quirks in My Hero Academia. Except here, it cancels chakra. Pain yells, “Shinra Tensei!” ...and just stands there with his arms out like he’s waiting for a hug. Obito tries to phase away with Kamui, only to eat a Fireball Jutsu to the face. “WHAT THE HELL, THAT’S ILLEGAL!” Onoki was soaring majestically through the sky until he fell from the sky and shouted, “MY BACKKK!” Even Madara himself smirks and says, “Stop the meteor, boy!” And Shota just tilts his head and asks, “Which meteor?” -- It's original and not a translation -- No Harem -- Mc is a transmigrated from Earth with the same name as Shota

Soren Valmere, unawakened and treated as family garbage, is forced into an arranged marriage with Ethea Morvain, the once-legendary Ice Empress now completely paralyzed after a catastrophic Gate incident. Both families exile them to a modest house in a working-class neighborhood, washing their hands of two "problems" they no longer want to deal with. But on their wedding night, Soren awakens a hidden power: the Investment Authority. Whatever he invests in Ethea—time, money, care, emotion—returns to him amplified by 10,000 times when she achieves breakthroughs. Buy her medicine with his last credits? Receive a hundred million in return. Spend sleepless nights helping her move a single finger? Gain decades of martial experience instantly. Risk his life to save hers? Unlock abilities that shatter the heavens. As he pours everything into the wife everyone abandoned, Ethea slowly transforms from a broken doll into something that surpasses even her legendary past. And Soren? The "worthless" unawakened trash becomes the most dangerous investor the world has ever seen. Their families wanted to forget them. The world dismissed them as failures. They're about to learn that the greatest returns come from investing in someone everyone else deemed worthless. "You threw us away. Now watch us rise." _______ _____ _ Author's Note: Hey everyone!

During the Third Great Shinobi War, Shunsui Kyoraku was born into Konoha. already a questionable decision by the universe. Originally a reincarnated soul from Earth, Shunsui had one humble dream: become a farmer, grow crops in peace, and absolutely avoid anything that looked like a death flag. In a world of chakra monsters and war-hardened shinobi, he knew very well that without a cheat ability, he would be nothing more than background scenery. That all changed at age five. When he awakened his only cheat code, everything went downhill for the ninja world since then. He had got Katen Kyōkotsu. The Zanpakutō of the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13. And with that he could bring any of the children's game to reality. Whether it were the games that the bleach captain commander used or games from Earth like Angry birds, Monopoly, Snakes and ladders, Mario, Hide and Seek, Uno, Fire and Ice etc. And we are not even talking about his bankai yet. --Self Insert -- Story starts during third great shinobi war --MC has the appearance of Shunsui. --No Harem -- Not a translation

All he wanted was to drive home and speedrun the game before the DLC dropped. Then came the crash, a warm light, and nothing—until he woke up as Wolfgang, a poor knight from a minor noble family in the Holy Roman Empire. He thought he knew this world. However, once a butterfly flaps its wings, no one can predict where the storm will go; this world doesn't follow the game's script. Nobles plot in the dark, and being the smartest person in the room means nothing when steel decides the argument. To survive the filth and chaos of medieval life, he has no choice but to lean on a mysterious system that hands him quests, money, and access to a shop packed with skills, manuals, and items he could never have gotten otherwise. He refuses to just stand by and watch history be written without him. With modern knowledge, he will use every resource, building a loyal army, amassing wealth, and carving out the strongest empire ever with his own hands.

“Who is the football GOAT?” A question that has been asked countless times in the last decade. Is it Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi? To be fair, the question actually depended on what one wanted from a player as they were two different people and they played differently from the other. This was also the case with every other legendary player to grace the game. As a diehard fan of the game, Jason Bolu also had someone he thought to be the goat, but unlike most people, he harbored the desire to not only become as great as them, but even greater than any legend that ever graced the game. He wanted to become the Greatest Of All Legends… the GOAL. Unfortunately, fate has never cared about people’s hopes and dreams, and just like every other unfortunate human, she hit him hard across the face with a broken reality and sent him flying in another direction from his goal, yet he didn’t give up and continually persevered but, in the end, he didn’t ever make it. He wasn’t even halfway near his goal. He thought it was over… but it wasn’t. He got another chance at his dreams, and this time he was going to do more than his best to achieve his dream. *disclaimer* There is no system or cheats, just plain hard work and a past life of experience.. Also, despite the use of real-life characters, places and things, this is an artistic creation in which things wouldn't be as they are in real life so don't be surprised at some things that are unrealistic and out of place e.g. exact details, attitude of characters etc. This is a slow-paced novel.
