In Another World, I Meet Another Self

DzakySvarog
[Reborn with My Female Self: A Story of Literally Loving Yourself] Rent Kaenda expected eternal silence after his final breath. Instead, a trolling White God offered him a scam of a deal: Rebirth in the world of Aeltherion. But there’s a catch. He is not alone. He is tethered to a living nightmare. Meet Kaensista Saichi. She has his face. She has his skills. She is the female version of himself from a parallel dimension. And worst of all... she is dangerously narcissistic. "Relax, Partner! Why so serious? Look at me, I'm gorgeous! That means you're gorgeous too! We are literally the perfect couple!" Now, Rent is stuck. He wants a quiet life; She wants the spotlight. He hates himself; She loves herself (and him) a little too much. Caught between his desire for peace and the whirlwind of trouble his "other self" brings, Rent must navigate a world of magic, monsters, and debt. Can Rent mend his broken soul? Or will he lose his sanity first dealing with a woman who wears his face but has an ego bigger than a dragon? Author's Note: Genre: Dark Fantasy x Narcissistic Comedy. (Think Konosuba meets Mushoku Tensei, but the main duo is the same person). The Dynamic: Rent wants peace. Kaensista wants attention. Chaos ensues. Romance: Slow Burn. Focuses heavily on the chemistry between Rent and Kaensista in the first arc. (Yes, more waifus will appear later, but Rent has to survive this one first!) Progression: Weak-to-Strong. Rent starts with nothing but his brain and his "other self". No Cheat System, No Status Window. Pure Magic & Skill. [I am also posting this story on RoyalRoad.com under the name 『Zakisuvarogu』.]

I Leash Emperors: The Dead Shout. I Smile

The dead scream for justice. They have been screaming for centuries. In my office on the 88th floor, the sound is indistinguishable from the hum of the paper shredder. I have twelve of history's most dangerous minds in my vault—Caesar, Cleopatra, Napoleon, Wu Zetian, and eight others whose names are synonymous with the word empire. I stripped them of their crowns and their divinity and left them with the only two things that survive death intact: greed, and memory. Then I put them to work. The boardroom is their new battlefield. Stocks are their arrows. Hostile takeovers are their sieges. The First Emperor runs my supply chains with the same draconian efficiency that built the Great Wall. The Queen of the Nile runs my PR division and calls it beneath her. Caesar rewrites the legal architecture of an entire financial district before breakfast and considers it a light morning. The rules are simple. The Emperor with the highest ROI earns twenty-four hours of full sensory restoration—taste, warmth, the burn of real alcohol, everything the synthetic body cannot feel. The Emperor at the bottom earns something else: a Hell Start. Reincarnation as a beggar, a eunuch, a sacrificial lamb in the next cycle. They know this. It keeps them focused. Every full moon, the tavern opens. The millions they killed in their lifetimes gather as my Jury—compressed into a medium that runs on pure hatred, sustained by a spite so concentrated it has proven, against all known physics, to be a measurable energy source. They vote. They decide which of their tormentors leads the next charge, and which of the most venomous among them earns a temporary body to return to the waking world. Wu Zetian shed her imperial robes to kneel at my feet and beg for a private review of her HR directorship. Arsinoe—murdered by her own sister two thousand years ago—spent six weeks haunting Cleopatra's servers and built a perfect weapon before she ever asked me for the body to deliver it. Cleopatra herself believes her beauty is a currency I will eventually accept. She has not yet understood that in this building, the only currency is performance. I do not need loyalty. I need sharp blades. I do not trade in mercy. I trade in ROI. They believe this is my game. They do not ask why I need to win it. Rules? I am the rule. Harem? The highest-tier spoils of a game they don't know the stakes of. Every arc is a different world. Every world is a wound that needs closing. The Emperors do not know this. They never do. Perhaps the last thing standing between their world and oblivion is a man who stopped caring about it long ago. Let the dead shout. I smile. I have to.
