Lord of Eternal Bloom & Decay

For an entire year, Scott was addicted to playing Sporos, a survival game he found online. He was addicted to the brutal, open-world simulation known for its 99.9% mortality rate, a digital hellscape defined by the "Blooming Decay Event" that swallowed humanity twenty millennia ago. He died thousands of times to the acid-drenched fangs of Spore Beasts and the lung-collapsing rot of cyclonic spore storms. Pushed to the brink of frustration by the game's impossibility, Scott spent weeks coding a balancing script—a "Shelter Core" cheat designed to defy the game’s cruel fate. However, things took another extreme turn as Scott woke up trapped in the body of a "Critically Weakened" Shelter Lord on Sporos, with a remaining lifespan of only 17 years. He is now a mutated survivor struggling to breathe in a world where the atmosphere is thick with corrosive pollen and the ground is buried beneath miles of sentient, hungry mycelial mats. However, the code came with him. Floating before his eyes is the interface that will change the fate of this rotting world. While the horrors of Sporos—the flesh-eating Biolilies and the hallucinations of the Feral Echo, Scott begins his grind. He possesses the unique ability to inject fixed experience points into his very DNA, forcing evolution where nature intended decay.

My Gamer System: Awakening As A Soulbinder

Weak, Mocked. And Cast aside in both lives.. Lucien Vale lived most of his first life in a hospital bed, his body too fragile for the world yet his mind alive in countless games. Day after day, he logged in, grinding levels, mastering systems, and losing himself in digital realms that made him feel strong, even if only for a moment. Then the fight ended. Quietly. Unfairly. But death wasn’t the end. It was a loading screen. Lucien awakens in another world— Elarion, born as the half-blood son of a human father and an elven mother. Here, mixed bloodlines are shunned, magic is everything, and fate has already stamped him worthless. Yet the boy who once lived through screens refuses to break. And on the night the sky tears open and the Rift beasts spill out, something awakens deep inside him: ▓▒░ SOULBINDER SYSTEM ONLINE ░▒▓ A gamer’s interface was born as an unmatched power. Hidden from the world, evolving beyond the laws of Aetherion, the Soulbinder System offers quests, skills, classes, and a path no mage should possess. While others wield Aether, Lucien commands something older, something dangerous— binding souls, forging contracts, and shaping power the way he once shaped characters on a screen. From the lowest division of Aetherion Academy to the frontlines of Rift wars, Lucien rises step by step— quiet, relentless, and unseen, until the world that scorned him can no longer ignore the shadow climbing its ranks. He was born bottom-ranked. He was labeled weak. He was meant to fail. But this time… he’s playing the game for real.

Lackey's Seducing Survival Odyssey

The world was cruel..... Especially for those who had lost their chances to shine. Aether was one of them.... Born with a golden spoon... yet, he was cast aside like a defective product. He longed for love, for warmth—but all he received was pain. Yet, he smiled, not because he wanted to, but because he had no other choice. With nothing but a broken heart and a hollow laugh, he stepped into the hell called society. "Can't you do a single thing right?!" "…Heh" "You're fired!!!" "…W-Wh…He" "I'm sorry, sir, but you need at least a bachelor's degree to apply." "…I-I am…Heh" "We can’t approve a loan without collateral." "…W-Why?" "Your father’s a politician, right? So, you know…" "…" The so-called society didn't welcome him very well... Yet, He pressed forward! After years of struggle, he finally secured a job—only to be reminded of his place. "Yeah, yeah… I know you got the job thanks to me. So don’t ever contact me or MY parents again," his brother sneered. "...Heh..." And just when he thought he had finally earned a sliver of recognition— "HONK!! HONK!!" Fate was merciless. A split second, a cruel twist, and his already miserable life came to an abrupt end. Yet, as the darkness closed in, he screamed into the void— “I JUST WANT TO LIVE!!!!!” A will that even the universe listened. !~Ding~! Reborn into a new world, Aether thought he had finally been given the chance to truly live. But instead of peace, he found himself in yet another struggle—not just to survive, but against something even more dangerous… Seduction!! Not just any seduction… but a mission to seduce and save the most unattainable women in existence! Seducing the Princess of an Empire! Seducing the Hero’s Mother! Seducing the Villain’s Wife?! ..... ... .. And the list only kept growing… He, a Mere slave, seduces them all.... WHAT KIND OF F## UP LIFE WAS THIS?!! But it wasn’t OVER—far from it.... These women… were even worse!! One wrong move, one careless mistake… and his life could be erased from existence! One thing became painfully clear—if he ever wanted to survive in this hellish world, there was only one path forward. He had to seduce them all. _________________ 1 bonus chap per 500PS. 1 bonus chap per 100GT. 3/5 bonus chap for reaching rank 100/80 in GT ranking respectively. Discord Server Link: 6JA46z23bw

Chat Group: Swapping Bodies with the Bad-Ending Herta from the Start

“Got isekai’d because some ‘Jailbro ghost-meme’ shoved itself in my face? No problem—watch me speedrun my second playthrough!” Having just finished collecting every Persona mask, Bai Qian discovers he’s been added to a chat group—and to make things even worse, he’s swapped bodies with Bad-Ending Herta. Bai Qian is all set to follow the old, reliable routine: use spoilers to trade for resources. But he quickly realizes the group members aren’t quite what he imagined. Kiana: “Sirin, next move you defend—I’ll attack!” Toyokawa Sakiko: “Is this funny to you? Can someone tell me why I’ve become the embodiment of the Lord of Cinder? Where’s the Phantom Thieves crew you promised?!” Talulah: “From the skies over Ursus to the farthest edge of Terra—if I can’t save it from your failure… then let Terra burn.” Herta: “Before you say all that, can you at least pair up Laogushi and Machine-Head into a set of star-crossed sufferers?” Melina: “Here, I cast aside my dignity.” … “That’s not how a chat group works! You’re supposed to chat with me first, raise my affection, and trigger special events at specific locations—only then do you get to see my special CG!” Many days later, when Bai Qian sees the notification that the group has already finished building a basement, he’s stricken with grief. “What on earth is our chat group going to turn into?!”

A Collateral for his dark desire: Indebted marriage

Celine Holmes was nine the day her world ended. One moment, she was laughing in the back seat of her father’s car, excited for her birthday trip. The next time, she woke up in a hospital bed, broken, with a bandage on her head and legs, and alone. Her parents vanished from the face of the earth. She knew instantly that life would never remain the same again. After her recovery, she was sent to a foster home, where a wealthy couple, Mr and Mrs Klein, took her in. They called her a blessing as they welcomed her with open arms and promised her a new beginning. For a while, she believed them. She thought maybe this time, she could belong again. But good things never lasted long in Celine’s life. Mr Klein lost his job, and his kindness turned into cruelty. He drank too much, gambled too often, and blamed her for every misfortune that had befallen him and his family. The family that once smiled at her began to turn. His sons, now nineteen, looked at her differently, not with brotherly affection, but with a lustful gaze. When she resisted them, their cruelty deepened. And whenever Mr Klein lost to a gamble, he took it out on Celine. Then one day, everything changed again. Mr Klein’s gambling caught up to him. The man he owed was no ordinary creditor; he was Cassian Damien, a feared mafia boss with a reputation for collecting debts in blood. When Cassian came for his payment, Mr Klein offered the only thing he had left: Celine. She overheard the deal and tried running. But you can’t outrun the kind of man who sees three steps ahead. Cassian came for her unexpectedly and took her away. He locked her away, not as a wife, but as a slave meant to satisfy his dark desires. But Cassian didn’t expect her to be the fire to his cold heart. Her defiance. Her refusal to break. And against his will, something in him began to change, trying to win her affection. Luciana, his ex, was the first to notice the way he looked at her. The way he hesitated in dishing out her punishment was unlike anything he had done before. Jealousy turned to fury, and she began to scheme. In the middle of it all, Cassian’s younger brother, Alexandro, returns. He was softer, kinder, and drawn to the same girl Cassian couldn’t let go of. In a world ruled by violence and vengeance, Celine was caught between two brothers, haunted by her past, and desired by the mafia rivals who also wanted to claim her for her beauty and spirit. But the soft girl was gone; she wanted revenge and freedom. Would she use Cassian's obsession to get what she desired, or would she be ruined by it?
