What have I been forsaken for? Was it all so my sister could die, and I could be left on the edge of death? Will I ever truly let go of my hopes? When will I finally know what it means to live a normal life? But perhaps there is no "normal" to be found in this cursed world. Everything seems intent on destroying you, on seeing your life end as they believe it must. All the pain, all the torment... it descends upon us all at once, without mercy. Nobody will ever be perfect. Not now, not ever. Yet I will survive, carrying my brilliant ideas with me into solitude. I will thrive among the trees, forging a new life where I have been given but one chance to do so. From this day forward, I dedicate my life to being alone – entirely by my own hand. ———— (Novel Written by Nuevian) (Book cover taken from Pinterest - I think) (If you want a no-power, resilient and insanely adaptive protagonist, this novel is the best for that type of MC.)

He wanted to build bridges. Now he has to burn them. Arthur was a brilliant but overworked civil engineer who died alone in his cubicle. His only wish for the afterlife? A long nap and a boring, normal life. Instead, he wakes up in the body of Taylor von Oakhaven, the despised, frail third daughter of a poverty-stricken Count in a backward fantasy world. The land is filled with mud, disease, and starvation. The castle is falling apart. Her father wishes she was dead, her step-sister loves her a little too much, and her personal maid is dangerously obsessed. But Arthur—now Taylor—is an engineer. He has a System that rewards him for bringing civilization to this dark age. He plans to pave roads, build sewers, and invent the steam engine to buy his way to a comfortable life. It was a perfect plan. Until he found the note under his pillow. Written on modern paper with a ballpoint pen—technology that shouldn't exist here—was a message: "I know you aren't her. Fix this mess, or you're next. — A" Now, Taylor is trapped in a deadly game. She must use concrete and gunpowder to uplift her territory while hunting for a stalker who knows her past life. They thought she was just a useless noble girl. They didn't know she was about to industrialize their nightmares. Fans of "The Greatest Estate Developer"’s comedy, "Release That Witch"’s technology, and "Pretty Little Liars"’s suspense will love this twisted kingdom-building thriller.

The ashes that fell the night Raizen’s village burned weren’t black. They were gold. Nyxes - creatures of living shadow that he swore to kill - have hunted humanity for as long as anyone remembers. Mindless. Relentless. Unquestioned. The Vanguards kill them, history doesn’t want to remember them, and nobody wants to ask what came before. But something did come before. Something older than the monsters. Something that whispers inside Raizen's mind. Something that looked at him dying and decided he was worth keeping. Waiting. Silently. Now, he walks in a world built on beautiful lies. Eon turns desperation into miracles, Luminite weapons rewrite the rules of what's possible, and everywhere - buried truths that refuse to stay dead. The city says the war is simple: humanity versus darkness. But the higher Raizen climbs, the more the walls look like cages - and the more he wonders who they were really built to keep out If he wants to survive, he must grow stronger. If he wants answers, he must become someone not even the nightmares can ignore. …But to win? He may have to burn everything in his way - and pray the thing watching from the dark doesn’t remember him.

Reincarnated into an eternal fantasy realm, a fallen heir awakens a system that transforms the world into a game. With players arriving from future Earth, his path will rewrite the laws of power, death, and destiny.

True fantasy is the delicate mix of various "what ifs." What if I can fly? What if I can't die? But would it still be a power fantasy? In short, if you enjoy fresh world-building, philosophy and mystery, and hard sci-fi elements disguised as isekai, you're in for a ride. Warning: Contains graphic violence, gore, and psychological trauma. Reader discretion is advised.

A desolate Su Xier who has been divorced by her husband and betrayed by the people she loved and calls her family. What will happen when she meets someone who will mark a new chapter of her life and finds out that there are still people who love her truly?

[Author is currently editing the first ten chapters.

Now Marron gets to upgrade her cart, herself, and her companions while she builds her dream from scratch in the abaonded Meadowbrook Commons Market. Along her culinary journey, Marron discovers cooking isn't just about feeding people's stomachs--it's about feeding their hearts while unapologetically living the life she'd always wanted.

​Arata and the Secret of Tellios ​Young Arata is the scion of a lineage entrusted with a mysterious pendant. A relic of immense power, it brought prosperity to his ancestral lands—yet such blessings always demand a price, a lingering consequence for every luxury enjoyed. ​Across the stars dwells Zili, a ruthless rebel leader consumed by an insatiable thirst for dominion. He is a cosmic parasite, draining the life force of every planet he subjugates. His arrival is synonymous with the apocalypse; mercy is a concept foreign to him, and he grants none to those who dare obstruct his path. ​Currently, Zili’s shadow looms over the planet Tellios. He is driven by a frenzied desire to seize the power locked within a legendary gemstone. Tellios was once guarded by three protectors, but their physical forms now lie captive in Zili’s clutches. Their spirits, however, remain sealed within a crystalline sanctuary known as the Vault. To keep this soul-stone from falling into Zili’s hands, it was spirited away to the distant cradle of Earth. ​Fate led Arata to discover this artifact within his ancestral grounds. Upon unlocking its seal, he achieved a rare synchronization with the power dormant inside. Now, he finds himself burdened by a heavy moral debt, forced to unravel the truth behind a conflict he never asked to join. ​Beneath the weight of destiny, Arata remains a youth navigating the turbulent waters of adolescence. His world is a tapestry of textbooks, grease-stained workshops, loyal friendships, and the delicate stirrings of romance. Orphaned and left to fend for himself, Arata did not succumb to despair; instead, he forged a fierce independence. He is surrounded by a makeshift family: Kato and his father have been his anchors since childhood, while Hana, Yumi, and Sora provide a warmth he deeply treasures. The motorcycle workshop where he works part-time has become a second home; the Kenzo family treats him as one of their own. ​Yet, a life that seems too idyllic often exacts a steep toll. Arata’s journey is shadowed by Donios and his trio of lethal mechanical drones. These executioners are more than ready to reenact the ancient slaughter of Arata’s ancestors in the modern day. ​Now, Arata and the three Guardians of Tellios are locked in a desperate race against time. The fate of Tellios is inextricably linked to that of Earth; if Tellios falls, Earth follows. The hope of two worlds now rests upon Arata’s shoulders—his choices and his courage will decide the future of these cosmically bonded realms.

In the heart of the Silent Death Forest, there is a legend. The ancient beasts whisper of a terrifying entity that shatters Ironwood with a single swing, dines on the flesh of Spirit Kings, and reshapes reality with a wave of his hand. Kael just thinks he found a nice, quiet spot to build a log cabin. Reincarnated with [The Creator System], Kael has zero interest in saving the world or fighting Demon Lords. He’s an average guy who wants a simple life: a home built with his own two hands, a warm meal, and the family he never had. But Kael doesn't realize he has set up camp in the world’s deadliest restricted zone. He doesn't know the "stray cat" he fed is a Calamity Beast, or that the "lost girl" he sheltered is a fugitive high-noble.

"I just want a slow life... so why do these monsters keep bowing to me?"
