One night. One bad decision. One voice in his head that won't shut up. Elijah Ashford woke up with a hangover, a stolen car, and no memory of how he got either. His best friend says he fought his bully, kissed the hottest girl on campus, and won a small fortune betting on himself. That's not the problem. The problem is the voice. "I'm you," it says. "The version you were too afraid to become." "You keep forgetting," it says. "I was born to save you from yourself."

Neji, your death was way too tragic! While the dead-last loser has already gotten promoted, landed a CEO position, married your cousin, and climbed to the very peak of life… you’re lying quietly in your grave. Out of everyone your age, you’re the only one who died. That’s just unfair!

Every five hundred years, darkness returns to Neptunia. When magical corruption reaches its peak, the Demon King is reborn, and the Chosen Hero, blessed by the Archangel Uriel, rises to stop him. This cycle has never failed. Until now. Using a forbidden relic that reveals the future, Uriel witnesses a catastrophe: twenty years from now, Neptunia lies in ruins, the Hero is dead, and the Demon King sits upon the throne of a fallen world. The reason? A curse. The White Witch has stolen the Hero’s power before the final battle. Uriel, greatest strategist among the archangels, realizes this future can still be changed. Not through divine intervention. Not through another chosen one. But through a single ordinary human from Earth. No legendary bloodline. No hidden power. No heroic destiny. Only one impossible mission: Find the White Witch. Stop the curse. Save the Hero. Change the fate of an entire world. Wolfheart is a dark fantasy isekai about fate, sacrifice, and the idea that even an ordinary person can leave a mark on history. My book will also be available on Royal Road.

Clover's Roaring Emperor: "I'm going to prove to everyone that whether you're a pauper or an abandoned child, you can achieve great things!" Arlan: "If you want to know what else these two have in common besides being inspirational, it's that I was unlucky enough to transmigrate as Rock Lee first. Due to physical defects, I couldn't control Chakra to perform Ninjutsu. After protesting to the system, I transmigrated again as Asta, who can't use magic..."

Reincarnated into a world of magic and monsters, Victor didn't become a heroic knight or an all-powerful Archmage. Instead, he woke up as the Principal of the Abyssal Academy—a bankrupt, crumbling school for the continent's worst villains, dark mages, and assassins. The teachers are embezzling funds. The students are trying to assassinate him daily. And the "Heroes of Light" are planning to raid the school and execute everyone in thirty days. But Victor isn't sweating. In his past life, he was a ruthless corporate tycoon, and he just awakened the [Tycoon's Ledger] System. He doesn't need to fight with magic; he fights with capitalism. A student tries to stab him? Victor survives and charges them a 5,000 Gold "Practical Exam Fee." The Heroes of Light are invading the campus?

Armed with his ledger, a cold heart, and a brilliant mind, Victor is about to show the magical world that the most terrifying power isn't a Tier-9 Fireball. It's compound interest. Welcome to the Abyssal Academy. Your tuition is due.

Let's be honest. You've read this story before. Pathetic loser gets transmigrated, finds a magical system, gets into a magical academy, and suddenly every girl in a ten-mile radius wants to jump his bones. It’s trash. I should know; I died choking on my own rage while reading it. Yeah, I got that story. Except I'm not some clueless kid. I was a Yakuza enforcer. And the body I got stuck with? It belongs to the fattest, laziest, most perverted side-character I’ve ever met. My new name is Satori, and my life is a cosmic joke. My "cheat" is the [Scumbag System]. It doesn't reward heroism or kindness. It rewards manipulation, corruption, and causing the kind of chaos that makes for a damn good show. And if I fail? The penalties are... creative. And excruciatingly painful. First on the System's hit list: my gorgeous, powerful, and utterly disgusted stepsister, Natalia. The mission: seduce her, corrupt her, and make her mine. This isn't a zero-to-hero story. It's a story about a wolf in pig's clothing, and the flock has no idea what's coming. Welcome to the hunt. === ADDITIONAL Tags: No Yuri, No Ntr, Netori, Gates, Dungeons, Yandere, Tsundere, Gacha, comedy

They called the Abyss a place where even gods disappeared. Across kingdoms and ruined lands, hunters chase whispers of an unknown existence tied to vanishings, distortions, and something darker than death itself. Meanwhile, a silent traveler walks alone through the world with no memory of who he truly is. He does not know why animals avoid him. Why the forest grows quiet around him. Why people feel something wrong before he even speaks. And he does not know the most terrifying truth of all— The being the world fears may already be walking among them. As strange forces begin noticing his existence, reality itself starts reacting in ways it cannot explain. Hunters close in. Ancient powers awaken. And somewhere beyond the edges of the known world, something waits for him to remember. But the human body he walks in is only a vessel. And if what sleeps inside it fully awakens— the world may not survive it. Nihilfire Reborn: God on a Vessel — A dark atmospheric fantasy about identity, restrained destruction, and a presence the world was never meant to contain.

Owen Colt didn’t ask to be reincarnated. And definitely not into the most chaotic, explosive universe of them all: the world of superheroes. No systems. No fancy nanotech suits. No powers (or so he thought)... Armed with nothing but the memories of a past life and a burning will not to die as cannon fodder, Owen made the only choice he could: train, harden himself, and survive. From childhood, every step he took was an investment in his future: intelligence, weapons, tactics, hand-to-hand combat, military strategy. He became the perfect soldier... only to walk away just before the world was about to explode. Because he knew that once caped gods started falling from the sky, the first to die would be the regular soldiers. His plan? Stay out of it. Don’t be just another name on a grave. His reality? A corpse at his doorstep, an assassin trained like a Black Widow, and a conspiracy that drags him straight into the deadliest chessboard in the entire Marvel Universe. Because sometimes, you don’t choose to be a hero. Sometimes, chaos chooses you. And Owen Colt... is more than ready to hit back. Quick Note: Yes, he will have superpowers. The story is based on the MCU, but I’ll be incorporating elements from the comics too, including certain heroes. I have no intention of making this a harem—unless explicitly requested. At most, the protagonist won’t have a fixed partner, but rather a “friends with benefits” type of relationship. DISCLAIMER: This is a work of fiction based on the MCU and Marvel Comics.

Kaliman: I Ended Up Becoming the Strongest in Another World by Fighting with Sticks, but My Agimat Is Trash and My Class Is a Bard!
