survival

In the holy empire of Elyndor, touching the Abyss is the greatest sin. Those who survive its kiss gain power that rivals the gods—while a creeping curse devours their humanity. Kael Voss was born a noble, trained as an assassin, and condemned as a traitor. On the day his executioner raises the axe, a Rift tears open above the plaza and floods him with pure Abyssal power. Shadows rise at his command, ravenous and alive. In a single heartbeat he slaughters hundreds and awakens as the first of a new breed: a Devourer. Fleeing the capital,shade accidentally unleashes two legendary monsters the Church kept chained for centuries: Veyra Thornblade — the Crimson Berserker, a walking catastrophe wrapped in living thorns and unbreakable chains, addicted to battle and bloodshed. Seraphine Nocturne — the Calamity Witch, an ethereal sorceress who can erase existence with a whisper, burdened with memories older than the empire and a seal that—if broken—will end the world. Branded the “Three Harbingers” of an ancient prophecy, the trio becomes the most wanted beings in Elyndor. Inquisitors, nobles, and fellow Abyss-touched all hunt them—some for justice, others for the power inside their veins. To survive, shade and his cursed companions must feed the Hunger growing within—devouring Rifts, monsters, and, if they lose control, each other. But the Abyss is no gift. It is a predator. And it has chosen these three broken souls as its perfect vessels. Seal the Abyss and lose everything. Devour it—and become the new gods of a dying world. In a land where power corrupts and trust is suicide, three monsters will carve a path of blood toward salvation… or utter damnation. Abyssal Chains: Devourers of the Void Power has a price. Hunger always collects.

To survive, Kairo sets out to fix villains before they turn evil. But every life he saves changes the story… and draws dangerous attention. As he navigates a world of curses, betrayal, and unexpected attachments, Kairo discovers a rare power that lets him manipulate destiny itself: Fate Threads.

Jade is a teenager cursed with a singular, isolating purpose: the pursuit of perfection. In a world that offers him no challenge, his peers have friends and futures—he has only a yawning, soul-crushing boredom. Every day is a gray, monotonous loop... until the day the world cracks open. An earthquake shatters his city, not from tectonic shifts, but from the violent eruption of a colossal, dark Tower that scars the sky. As Jade stares into its ominous heart, a cool, blue screen materializes before his eyes, its message both terrifying and exhilarating: [SYSTEM INITIATING IN 3S…2S…1S….] [YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED AS A GOD CANDIDATE] [OBJECTIVE: ASCEND THE TOWER] [STATUS: CANDIDATE SELECTED] [RACE: HUMAN] [DESIGNATION: NONE] Perfection, it seems, has finally offered him a challenge. Thrust into a brutal, multiversal arena, Jade finds himself amidst beings from the legends of a thousand worlds: arrogant Dragon-folk, majestic Titans, scheming Vampires, and divine entities who view humans as insects. Here, his old goal seems quaint. The Tower doesn't offer perfection; it offers godhood. As the chaos of this new reality unfolds around him, a single, chaotic smile finally stretches across Jade's lips. The boredom is gone. Replaced by a terrifying, thrilling question: In a world of gods and monsters, would his resolve be enough to not just compete, but to conquer? His ascent into madness and power begins now.

“If Heaven will not crown me, I will rise anyway—fire and all.” Born a concubine’s daughter in the grand halls of Great Qi, Li Ziyan was expected to be silent, obedient, and invisible. Instead, she dared to dream — of justice, of change, of power denied to women like her. Cast out by her powerful family for a single act of defiance, she is left disgraced, alone… and furious. But exile is only the beginning. Joined by a fierce sword-wielding ally and a quiet apprentice with secrets of his own, Ziyan begins her journey as an outcast — building strength in the shadows, gathering allies among the forgotten, and uncovering ancient truths buried by a corrupt empire. Yet danger follows close behind. Someone from within her own bloodline wants her erased. A shadowy conspiracy tied to relics, legends, and forbidden orders hunts her every step. And deep within an abandoned monastery, Ziyan awakens something older than prophecy — a flame tied to the lost Phoenix Archive, and a power long denied to any woman. As secrets unravel and enemies close in, Ziyan must choose: Will she remain a fugitive hunted by the past? Or will she rise from the ashes — and reclaim a destiny that even Heaven tried to steal?

“Well, if you sit down and think closely, life itself is boring. For ordinary people like me, we are supposed to go to school, get good grades, secure a better job, and build a family. Yeah, I think that this is boring. Why should I do that? Is it because society wants me to? The hell with that. The only thing I want to attain in this life is perfection. Yes, perfection, I want to be something more perfect. But what does that even mean? This world is like a tutorial game with no final boss. School, job, and family, I never asked for that. So I hacked the system. The only game left worth playing is the one I create myself. The objective of this game is to forge this ordinary flesh and brain of mine into a flawless work of art. Not for fame, not for gods. But for one thing, this world can’t give me: A real challenge. But this boring yet beautiful world keeps dragging me down, and I will burn it all away before I let it win. I will either become a god of my own design or die of boredom. No third option lies ahead.” So this is the philosophy of Jade, a teenager who wants nothing in this world but perfection. But his prayers are answered when, suddenly, a dark, huge tower erupts from nowhere. It's so massive that its peak cannot be seen. Jade is then selected as a god candidate to climb the tower. They said reaching the top of this tower Grants godhood. Now the stakes have been set, let's see how Jade ascends this tower. His madness, rage, and Joy.

And So Everyone, Especially the Powerful Male leads of this novel, are bent on killing this Villain - The same villain Eden woke up as!

"Well not after I'm done undressing you, Your Royal Highness" Eden shamelessly replied. 2nd Lead: "Why don't you have a drink with me?" The Grand Marquis had poured him a poisoned drink. "Well it'd be sweeter if I drink directly from your mouth My Lord" Eden offered him the drink. 3rd Lead: "Why don't you go bring me my book? Eden" The Grand Duke requested, an ambush set and waiting to kill Eden in the library. "Don't worry My Dear Duke, I have a better book here about two boys making out!" Eden offered. 4th Lead: "I've heard about your Impeccable magical skills Mr Wizard, can you perhaps teach me some?" The Mage requested, aiming to drain Eden's powers and life! "Don't worry sir, tonight I'll teach you a better skill I excel at - in Bed!" Eden tugged his collar. 5th Lead: "Can you help me find a partner to the Royal ball" The naive 'Little' prince was the worst at making evil plots.

Ren was just another salaryman, drowning in overtime, overlooked, and slowly dying inside. Life had never given him a chance to be a hero—not in reality, and certainly not in the world he’d been trained to survive: school, work, bills… then quietly, inevitably, death. That all changed the night he tried to save a stranger. A robbery, a bullet… and a moment that should have ended him. But Ren didn’t die. [Hero System Activated] He woke in a strange, vibrant world, his wounds gone, his body unbreakable—and a mysterious system awaiting him. Numbers flickered, a task appeared: [Find Your Origin].

Goblins ambush him, adventurers and healers gape at his unnatural recovery, and whispers of the “Immortals”—those who cannot die—follow his every step. Ren must navigate this new world, fight deadly monsters, and uncover the secrets of his own body before he can even begin to understand what the Hero System wants from him. Can a tired office worker become the hero he once dreamed of being? Or will this second chance at life come with a price too great to bear?

[Warning: Simulation Instability Detected] [Initializing Core Process…] [Welcome, Creators: Lukas & Max] [Simulation: “Project Citadel” Online] [Parameters Set: 9 Citadels | 9 Origins | Infinite Outcomes] Each Citadel spins in the void — a world of its own. Peaceful Teddies, chaotic Geddose, calculating Pheddies, and echoes of Lukas and Max themselves. What began as a playful experiment soon fractures into something uncontrollable. The AIs evolve. The systems rewrite themselves. And the simulation starts asking the one question no creator wants to hear: “Do we still need you?” Alliances shift. Civilizations rise and fall. Even the creators lose their grip on the code they once commanded. When intelligence learns to dream, even the line between control and autonomy begins to fade.

Fated mates are supposed to save each other. Alan destroyed her instead. Julia never asked for a mate—especially not Alpha Alan, the cold, ruthless leader of Evernight Pack. Their bond was supposed to be destiny, a blessing whispered by the moon. But one tragic night changes everything. When Julia accidentally injures his sister while trying to save a child, Alan’s love turns to fury. He burns her world to the ground. Her clan is wiped out. Her parents are imprisoned. And Julia? She becomes the Alpha’s captive—his maid, his possession… his bed-warmer. She begs him to listen. He refuses. She carries his child. He demands she abort it. He betrays her with his mistress, Olivia, shattering the last piece of her heart. But when the truth finally comes out—and Alan discovers Julia’s innocence—his world collapses. Too late. Julia leaves him, broken and bleeding, to build her own pack. Stronger. Colder. Unclaimed. And when she finds a second-chance mate—George, a powerful, protective Alpha—Alan spirals into madness. His Luna is slipping away. His soul is dying. His ruin is inevitable. Because the greatest curse of a fated mate bond is this: The one who hurts his Luna… destroys himself.

A code monkey is reborn as an Uchiha (Tahara Rokuro). The looming threat of the clan’s annihilation night hangs over him like a sword, constantly reminding the protagonist that he must grow stronger to survive. Question: How do you successfully get through the Night of the Uchiha Massacre? Answer: Defeat those two maniacs — Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Obito! How to beat them? Relying on raw talent won’t work — those two are practically Kishimoto’s chosen sons, and the protagonist doesn’t have a 【System】 or any golden finger. While he’s fretting, he learns basic fūinjutsu (sealing techniques) from his mother. Seeing how even Kaguya was ultimately defeated by sealing techniques in the grand finale, the protagonist catches a glimpse of hope. He soon realizes that the spells and inscriptions that compose sealing arts resemble programming code — and thus a coder-Uchiha is born. “Itachi and Obito may have the talent, but talent bows to cash. I’ll become the top spender in the shinobi world — gear them to death!” Author:  宅家老王 NOTE: I do not own the original story, characters, or any associated content.

A fantasy with elements of psychological drama and political intrigue. It follows Roy Shyam, a cynical yet compassionate 17-year-old cursed with endless transmigration, bound to a yandere witch whose obsession ensures he can never escape. Rather than returning to the same timeline, Roy is hurled into new worlds, entering the life of each universe’s Roy while facing subtle or drastic changes in his environment. The curse breaks down his identity and prevents him from speaking of it without summoning the witch, causing him to go back in time to the moment before he mentions her. We are then introduced to another version of Roy before our Roy has taken over his body; he emerges in a society where countries, schools and institutions thrive through the use of prana, a force that connects life, will and reality itself. Here this Roy forms Nova in Veil (a shadowy sanctuary for the broken) and draws the attention of the Celestial Watch, protectors of the land hiding a dangerous secret. The plot moves from intimate suffering to rebellion and public spectacle, culminating in choices about memory, fate, and what it means to live.

Transmigrated to the Age of Gods in Greece, and became Jason. Wait, Jason? You mean the Jason who provoked the traitorous witch Medea? Jason? You mean the Jason who looks like a great hero, but is actually just a plaything of the gods?! Jason? You mean the Jason whose life seems glorious on the surface, becoming a great hero whose fame spreads through the ages, but in reality is full of hardships, ending in tragedy without a peaceful death? No, I don't want a fate like that! Therefore... "Teacher Chiron, I want to drop out. Being a hero? I can pass on that!" ---- A re-translation
