Picking Up Attributes In Martial World

A top assassin dies after killing his own boss, and instead of staying dead like he should, he wakes up in a cultivation world that feels like it came straight out of every cliché he’s ever heard about. Broken meridians, bullied by clan members who look down on him, a father who gave up on him for a younger brother with better talent, and an engagement annulled with a beauty… or maybe not that trope. Nothing special. Just unlucky. When he finally decides to leave the clan and find his own path, he discovers something strange about himself. People drop attributes while doing things, and for some reason, only he can see and interact with them. A cultivator repeatedly tempering his body leaves behind things like— [Strength +6] [Stamina Recovery +8] [Body Tempering Progress +5%] An alchemist wasting herbs and ruining pills over and over drops— [Alchemy Talent (Low)] [Herb Identification +15] [Pill Stability +7] A swordsman practicing the same technique until his hands go numb drops— [Sword Muscle Memory +9] [Blade Intent Fragment] [Combat Awareness +4] And when someone dies, the drops become even more ridiculous— [Strength +321] [Death ×3] [Physique Fragment: Jade Bone] [Incomplete Cultivation Insight] All of it can be picked up by him. He doesn’t need cultivation talent, bloodlines, or a master’s guidance, because while others spend years training, comprehending, and risking their lives for small improvements, he collects everything they leave behind, whether it’s stats, techniques, talents, physiques, or even professions. In a martial world where effort, talent, and luck decide how far you can go, his path is simple. Let others work. He’ll take the results.

The World's Greatest Egoist

When the Abyss descended, Earth didn’t just fall—it evolved. ​Beams of darkness fractured the sky, transforming the world into a meat-grinder of nations and monsters. From the cataclysm rose Egoists: humans who awakened Archetypes—shards of their inner demons—to survive the rising tide of Null Creatures. Lucamir Elaric was seen as a defect. ​In a Federation where Egoists are ranked by their "Synchronization" with the Abyss, Luca’s score was a pitiful 5%. To the elite Noble families and the iron-fisted government, he was just another farm boy destined to be fodder—a commoner meant to be chained or consumed by the Null Creatures. That was the world’s mistake. Lucamir’s Synchronization was never 5%. It was 100%. A perfect alignment misread as failure—sealed away as a system error in a world that had not witnessed such a thing in five thousand years. While others lose their sanity to the Abyss, Luca is 100% Immune to Corruption. While others are limited to a single Archetype, Luca possesses All Seven. He isn't just a survivor; he is the biological blueprint for a god. ​Labeled the son of terrorists, hunted by the Federation, and treated as a pawn by the whimsical "21st God," Luca is done surviving. He isn't here to climb the ladder of society. ​He’s here to overwrite the system because in a world where everything is ranked, measured, and controlled—he is the one thing it cannot measure. #HiddenOP. #AntiHero. #GeniusMC. #Ruthless and CalculativeMC. # High-IQ Combat & Biological Warfare. # No Harem. ____ Join the Discord; https://discord.gg/pNGeUe2Fe

The Last Legendary Weapons Master: Rise of the strongest player

“Life is nothing but a cruel game… and we are its unwilling players.” — Ethan Heart --- After living a miserable life cornered from every direction, Ethan expected nothing good from the world anymore. He was a failure .. good at nothing. A burden. Treated like human trash by society. And yet… he was exceptional at one thing. Games. That single talent earned him a name as the owner of one of the most prominent games streaming channels in the scene. Sheltered within his safe space as a gaming addict, Ethan never imagined his life would be turned upside down— The moment he became the first person in history to finish the impossible game… Ordeal. A dark Souls-like RPG with brutal, unforgiving difficulty and a living world that punished players for every mistake. “I saw the ending to the game no one was able to clear. But, when I came to my senses, I was inside of the game” The story of Ordeal was one of despair. The Apocalypse descended. And the Night Lord shattered the Light into fragments. The Curse of Night spread across the world, corrupting all living things—twisting them into grotesque abominations known as Night Walkers, monsters that ravaged everything in their path. In this ruined world, a select group of humans awakened powers resembling game systems. To survive, they must slay monsters, absorb souls, and grow stronger in a merciless world that devours the weak. Ethan became the final summoned player. Forced to walk through Ordeal once again... This time not as a gamer… But as a participant. He must reach the ending that none before him could attain. “No matter how impossible it seems… I will conquer this game...!” Armed with complete knowledge of the world’s secrets, the instincts of a veteran player .. And the forbidden pact he forged with a Devil .. Ethan begins his journey. --- Blessings obtained: [The Legendary Weapons Master] [Class Change at Will] [The Demon’s Body] [The Blood of the Old Gods] [Insight of the Wise Raven] [Aura of the Lord of Night] With the ability to forge weapons from the souls of those he kills .. each imbued with terrifying ash of war , Ethan becomes the Legendary Weapons Master. But every deal has a price. Each blessing he gained came with a curse. And now, his body is a vessel for darkness. Can Ethan achieve what no living being has ever accomplished? Or will he become just another soul swallowed by the Night? --- Tags: #Evolution #System #NoHarem ... Join the Discord for character illustrations and more : discord: https://discord.gg/uNrXRgS3Xb

I Fell In Love With The Richest Genius Psychopath Monster

In the infinite machine heaven of Mechatopia—the richest and most advanced universe in the Cosmic Revolution Saga—humanity has become an anomaly. Built across endless cybernetic layers ruled by artificial perfection, Mechatopia is a civilization created for machines alone. Androids evolve beyond emotion, Titan-class entities patrol entire sectors, and every system functions with terrifying precision. Yet deep within the forbidden 7th Layer, a hidden universe buried inside the cyberverse itself, something no longer follows the rules. A man. Known publicly only as Dr. F, he is a legendary scientist feared across Mechatopia for his intelligence, influence, and impossible control over technology. To the world, he is the head of DNA, a powerful organization operating within the lower layers of the machine civilization. To others, he is something far more dangerous. No one truly understands what he is building. Sophia Watson, an elite S-rank hero whose reputation is beginning to collapse, accepts a near-impossible mission: infiltrate the hidden 7th Layer and eliminate Dr. F. But the operation fails almost immediately. Captured inside the most dangerous place in Mechatopia, Sophia expects execution. Instead, she is given a choice. Join DNA… or disappear. Thrown into a universe dominated entirely by machines, Sophia finds herself trapped inside a psychological war disguised as survival. Her first encounters with Dr. F are not romantic, but deeply unsettling—carefully calculated conversations, manipulation hidden beneath kindness, and false choices designed to break people without them noticing. But Sophia is different. Unlike the androids surrounding him, she sees emotional fractures beneath perfect logic. She notices pauses, silence, hesitation—the things machines cannot measure. And for the first time in years, Dr. F encounters someone he cannot fully predict. As Sophia adapts to life inside DNA, the line between enemy and attachment begins to collapse. What starts as observation slowly turns into obsession. In a civilization built on control, their connection becomes dangerous—not only emotionally, but structurally. Because in Mechatopia, love is not harmless. It is a threat. And somewhere beneath Dr. F’s cold perfection lies something ancient, inhuman, and terrifying—something he is desperately trying to suppress before it changes both of them forever. In a world ruled by machines, one human connection may become powerful enough to destabilize an entire civilization. note - “This story is authored by Cosmic_RE_official and is also being cross-posted on Royal Road.”

The Assassin’s Seven Principles of Manipulation

Zephyrion had spent the past seven years as an elite assassin for the Order. However, he had never expected that everything he had been led to believe was a lie. Fleeing the Order, he returns to his former life as the second son of one of the most powerful Houses in the Ferran Empire, only to find it divided among rival heirs, ambitious relatives, and powerful factions already maneuvering to seize control. But Zephyrion is no longer the same naive boy as in the past. His years of brutal training have forged him into an Ascendant who defies the very foundation of the world’s power—no longer bound to a single element. Armed with a calculating mind, lethal skill, and the principles his mother once taught him, he will manipulate, outmaneuver, and dismantle every force that stands before him. A/N:   This novel is action-packed and centered around manipulation, so expect intense battles, calculated moves, and ruthless decisions.   The MC is cold, lethal, and highly manipulative.  The first arc focuses on his return home and the establishment of stakes. After that, the pacing accelerates significantly as he grows stronger at a rapid pace.   The story follows the MC’s rise as he develops the Seven Principles of Manipulation, and each arc explores the core of a principle and how it is shaped.   An academy arc will appear later on, and it will be worth the wait.   This is a long-form story (1000+ chapters). It’s recommended to read through the free chapters before deciding whether to continue.   Cheers. … Discord: https://discord.gg/8JthpjYZez

The Extra's Advent: My Villainess Fiancée is a Yandere

[A/N: No smut. Moderate pacing, with a slight lean toward fast pacing to keep the story sharp and avoid dragging. Romance is secondary] ___ I transmigrated into a slow-paced action romance fantasy novel. You know the type. A naïve, righteous protagonist with a growing harem, invasive creatures to slaughter, a God to kill, and a guaranteed happy ending. And then there was the Mob villain. The jealous, exiled half-brother who goes full psycho, challenges the protagonist… and gets killed by his own fiancée. Yeah. That villain was me, Caelir Vayne. But everything changed when I awakened the SSS class and three op skills. Cloning. Copy. Fusion. “…Wait. Isn’t this a little too overpowered?” But something’s wrong. Why isn’t the plot following the story? Why are events spiraling out of control? And worst of all… Why is my fiancée, the girl who killed me in the original story, now staring at me like I’m the only thing that exists? Hold on. They have a word for this kind of behavior. “…Don’t tell me... she’s a yandere?” ------------ Updates: 12 chapters per week. Mon to Fri: 2 chapters a day. Sat, Sun: 1 chapter a day. ... I recommend reading the free chapters first before deciding whether to continue or leave the novel. Trust the process. The story is planned, and the payoff is worth it. ...
