survival

In a world where strength decides who lives and who is forgotten, Arjun is forced into a brutal game he never chose. He doesn’t want power. He just wants to survive. But the system has other plans. And survival… comes at a cost.

In his first life, Li Fan found a mysterious stone by accident. He was a simple mortal who did not know that a single moment of luck would bind him to a cycle of one thousand lives. For over twenty thousand years, he has tried every path to escape his end. He has been a saint and a demon. He has been a ruler and a slave. Yet a cruel fate follows him across every incarnation. No matter how much power he gathers or how deep he hides, the world itself conspires to kill him between the ages of thirty and forty. This heavenly rejection is an inescapable cage that has crushed him nine hundred and ninety nine times. Now Li Fan wakes up in his fifteen year old body for the one thousandth and final time. The stone forged to his soul has finally shattered. The energy is spent and the cycle is broken. There are no more restarts and no more second chances. If he dies now, his soul will dissipate into the void and thirty thousand years of memories will vanish forever. Trapped in a body with bottom tier talent and no natural gifts, Li Fan stands on the edge of the abyss. He has lost his immortality, but he has kept something far more dangerous. He possesses the perfect recall of every hidden ruin, every coming betrayal, and every secret path to power. The heavens treat all living things as straw dogs.

Karma Arctis never belonged anywhere. A brilliant mind wasted in his parents' garage, living off resentment-fueled allowances, he drifted through life existentially numb—too sharp for the dull world, too bored to care. One day, a random paper on decision theory sparked something rare: genuine interest. He lifted it, read, and then... reality folded. Not metaphorically, but physically. He awoke inside Tier Zero, a sprawling VRMMORPG turned inescapable nightmare. Nothing made sense, his memories were jumbled up without clear order, as if a gaping hole were drilled in it and then surgically stitched together. In tier zero, there was no logout button, because the entire game was a deathtrap made by a psychopathic game developer — and subsequently, Karma and eight hundred thousand beta testers are locked inside it. If you die here, the neural feedback kills for real. The system’s cruel decree is absolute: only the player who conquers Floor 100 can unlock logout for everyone. In this tower of lethal puzzles, game-theory traps, and psychological warfare, ordinary minds fracture. But Karma? He was never ordinary. Among the blind masses scrambling for survival, this one-eyed genius becomes the reluctant king—dismantling impossible challenges with cold calculation, walking deathmatches with hands in pockets and a faint, knowing grin. A fractured squad gathers around him: the luck-plagued thrill-seeker, the crumbling streamer facade, the caged diplomat, the fang-flashing bluffer, the prodigy hiding shadows. They climb together, bonds forged in blood and betrayal. Yet every floor peels back more questions. Why does the code feel eerily familiar? Why do flashes of forgotten designs haunt his sleep? In a world that punishes the average, Karma Arctis may be the only one who can end the cage—or rule it forever.

Amid schemes, lies, and haunting mysteries, IAM must tread carefully through a world where reality bends and curses linger. One misstep, and he risks slipping into nothingness, consumed by shadows beyond comprehension. Powerless against beings of terrifying strength, IAM must uncover the truth. He doesn't know who or what he is. But something does—and it's watching... This is the a tale of suffering, of betrayal, death and mystery... of someone who shouldn’t matter—yet somehow does. From blood-soaked ruins to horrifying creatures, from horrible lies to strange truths, he will walk a path no one understands… not even him. And when he finally learns the truth— The world may wish he never had. **I upload twice a day. ** ** please add it to your collection even if you don't read it now, it will be very much appreciated. ** **because the synopsis doesn't say a lot, read my review down below for more information. **

No matter how hard we try to forget the past, it always comes back to bite us on the ass. It knocks on the door, and if we don't let it in, it'll break through the window. It'll be even worse when it gets here. It will reopen the wounds that have been healing for the last two and a half years. How will Delilah deal with what is coming? Can she seek support from her friend, who is also the local sheriff? Will Asher help her with the problem that has arisen again? Will he prioritise his job as sheriff or their long-standing friendship? And how does Ethan fit into all this?

Finding himself Reborn as a Saiyan drifting across space, Merun crash-lands into the martial country of the Sekigahara Confederate, a nation ruled by Martial Clans who care only for battle. Taken in by a struggling peasant family and later joining a declining clan, Merun quickly learns that in Sekigahara, the weak are trampled, and only strength determines who lives with dignity. Here, his Saiyan blood isn't enough.. He needs to learn Martial Arts. Using knowledge of his past life and using his growing status as an inhuman martial artist, he vows to change the system that keeps it citizens suffering for the sake of war. The main character won't mess with the canon timeline too much... but for the sake of his newfound family, will he? (MC has memories of his past life as well as the MU novel, most of DBZ. However his memories are hazy and he since he wasn’t a fighter, he would still need to learn the basics.) This is a fanfic of the awesome novel Martial Unity. The main character won't be super OP so easily, I'll try to retain the balance somewhat relative to Rui.

(This style focuses heavily on Luffy's unique abilities, his defiance of the rules, and the immediate action. It's great for hooking readers who want fast-paced fights and a fearless main character.) Logline: The world belongs to the strong, but the seas belong to the free. Synopsis: The execution of Gold Roger, the legendary Pirate King, didn't bring peace to the world—it started a war. Now, millions of outlaws sail the treacherous Grand Line in search of his hidden fortune: the One Piece. Monkey D. Luffy doesn't have a massive galleon, a terrifying reputation, or even a crew. What he does have is a body made entirely of rubber, a worn straw hat passed down from a hero, and a completely reckless disregard for the rules. In a world controlled by corrupt World Government Marines and bloodthirsty pirate warlords, Luffy sets out in a tiny rowboat to do the impossible. He's going to punch way above his weight class, recruit the most dangerous misfits the oceans have to offer, and flip the entire world upside down. The race for the ultimate treasure has begun, and the new era is about to get stretched to its limits!

Mia was the world’s perfect idol — platinum hair, hypnotic green eyes, and a voice that made millions feel seen. Her album Serpent Monarch wasn’t just music. It was a trap. Every track pulled listeners deeper: from “Welcome, Beautiful” to the final chant of the Nephilim. Fans thought they were falling in love with a pop star. They were joining something ancient. Now the voices in Mia’s head aren’t just fans anymore. They are a parliament of alters voting for survival. After a psychic crash, she flees to the Sanctuary — a hidden monastery where an AI known as Odin watches, doctors speak in riddles, and a one-eyed man with a cane offers the only thing she never had: a choice. But the songs are still playing. The serpent is still whispering. And the crown she helped build is coming for her. A dark psychological thriller about identity, fame, and the moment an idol realises she was never the queen — she was the bait.

APEX DEPENDENCY A New ThorneWorld Order In the gleaming aisles of ThorneMart, every purchase, every smile, every breath is scored. Kai Lennox has spent his life watching his single mother trade dignity for a better Thorne Score, the invisible chain that keeps the working class fed, housed, and obedient. When a black van arrives at 3 a.m. and selects him for the elite Apex program, Kai steps into a world of luxury, razor wire, and ruthless training in the science of control. Apex educates the gifted and forges them into weapons. Under the charismatic shadow of Elias Thorne, students learn how to turn human needs into unbreakable dependencies, kindness into leverage, ambition into chains, connection into domination. But Kai carries a rare, dangerous gift: an empathy so sharp he sees the fractures in people that the system is designed to exploit. As he rises through the ranks, Kai is forced into impossible choices, between blind loyalty to the machine that feeds the world… and the very thing that made him human. What starts as survival inside a mountain academy of engineered prodigies erupts into a global power struggle. Thorne’s elegant web of dependency clashes with rival factions: the cold obsolescence doctrine of Silas Reed, the ruthless expansion of Dragon’s Seed from Beijing, and a growing resistance fighting to break free. Lena Okoye, Kai’s brilliant and ambitious counterpart, climbs without hesitation. Theo Park, the too-perfect shadow planted to watch him, plays a game layered with half-truths. Instructor Voss walks a knife’s edge, protecting her younger brother while the system threatens to consume him. And investigator Marquez races through the collapsing world, hunting the one variable no algorithm can predict: the boy who sees every crack. From the fluorescent-lit shelves of ThorneMart #447 to the blood-soaked chambers of the Shadow Cabinet, Apex Dependency is a sweeping epic of power, fractured loyalty, and the terrifying price of seeing clearly in a world engineered to keep you blind. Some chains are easy to break. Others are built into the bone, and into the heart of what made you. The harvest has only just begun

Nobita saved the world... Then Doraemon left, and took the proof with him. Now 18, Nobita is alone, haunted by memories of epic battles and friendships that only exist in his head. He's learned how to live on his own. He's built a life of quiet anonymity, desperate to escape his past. But the past won't escape him. When a familiar face returns to drag him into a war spilling out from the worlds he once saved, Nobita must make a choice: stay in the safe, lonely world that has forgotten him, or embrace the brutal legacy of the false chosen one and fight once more.

Waking up crushed under a man, I nearly screamed—until I saw who it was. Adrian. My cold, obsessive husband. The man I spent a lifetime escaping from. In my past life, I trusted the wrong people. Betrayed the only man who ever protected me and died alone. One life ruined me. This one? I’ll ruin everyone who tries again. Now, the game is mine and I write the rules. I'll act sweet. Stay mysterious. And pit every snake against each other. And as for my dangerously obsessed husband? I will tame—wait... WAIT! I was just being a little gentle, why is this tyrant acting like a delicate princess? 'Hey, hey, stop clinging to me! What? You want cuddles? Head pats? You—You are not a cat, Adrian!' … “He’s deathly allergic to strawberries? But he devoured one from my hand like it’s a miracle elixir.” “He has sleeping disorders? But he hugged me and passed out like a lazy cat!” “He’s sulking… because I didn’t hold his hand?” When he saw me hugging my female best friend? He lost his mind. Yanked me into his arms and growled, “Mine,” like a deranged villain in love. I finally understood: no one else ever stood a chance. I was his only obsession.

Do you know what the concept “Eternal Recurrance” is? Have you ever wondered what the life of being a regressor is? Read this story to discover the answers to your questions that you may be confused at first to find out. Reality isn't often kind and can very much be cruel, some people want advice or support but can never know what to do. My purpose of writing this is to show readers that they are not alone and they can have hope even in the darkest times. This is an autobiographical book; the stories are inspired by real and actual events in the author's life. This story is also created to save that one reader in this world.

​The world, Earth, was devastated by the Great Incursion, an apocalyptic invasion by dimension-hopping monsters. Humanity's only hope now lies in Galaxy Fall, a newly accessible parallel world where they can gain strength through a System of quests and missions. ​Five hours after the Invasion, the betrayed survivor Mirabella is mysteriously reborn and gains a unique power: the [Master Account System]. Her initial skill is the deceptively simple but devastating 'Multiplier x100', which applies a 100 times buff to all her offensive capabilities, including physical attacks, spirit energy skills, and damage-over-time effects. ​Mirabella must now transform from a silent survivor into the world's most feared warrior, who was only scared of one thing, which is? "I Hope I don't run out of opponents in Both worlds."

Clara Vance had it all. Millions of followers, a beauty empire built on glamour, and a life curated for the camera. But a lost bet with her mother sends her away from a marvelous weekend trip to Mykonos and into the dusty attic of her family’s decaying ancestral manor. The catch was her inheritance. Her task? A dreary clear-out. Her discovery? A centuries-old diary belonging to her great-grandmother, Eleanor Thorne. The ink tells a story of a forgotten history. Eleanor’s forbidden obsession with her guardian and step-uncle, Casimir Guggenheim, a ruthless railroad tycoon with a heart of stone. But when Clara touches the tear-stained pages, the scent of crushed gardenias doesn’t just fill the room, it drags her back to 1879. Trapped in Eleanor’s corseted body, Clara finds herself under the roof of the very man who haunted the diary. To the world, Casimir is a cold, untouchable magnate. To Clara, he’s a puzzle she’s determined to break. The problem? Clara isn’t the timid, fragile girl Casimir remembers. She’s a 21st-century It Girl with no filter, a strategic mind for business, a total lack of respect for Gilded Age propriety and a defiance waiting for trouble to happen. While the original Eleanor was a victim of her station, Clara is ready to burn the cage down. As Clara navigates a world where a single misstep means ruin, scheming relatives see her as a pawn, and a powerful suitor sees her as nothing but a business merger. She realizes the history books were wrong. Rewriting Eleanor’s tragic end is dangerous, especially when she starts falling for the man she was never supposed to have. History says they’re a tragedy. Clara says history is about to get a makeover.

When Earth is thrown into the brutal Worlds Collide Series, every participant is forced to choose a class to survive. Hermes Laurent, the richest man on Earth, is handed what should have been a joke, the F-Rank Trash Peddler. In a world where combat classes rise like gods and the weak are meant to die early, Hermes discovers the truth first. His class is not weak. It is broken. While others fight for scraps, Hermes does what he has always done best. He buys, manipulates, rebrands, and builds monopolies before anyone else understands the market. After converting his entire Earth empire into cosmic capital, he begins buying power, selling survival, and turning desperation itself into profit. With an elite AI named Gabby at his side, forbidden genetic upgrades in his hands, and a cosmic livestream economy waiting above the battlefield, Hermes turns survival into business and business into domination. Weapons can kill monsters. Hermes plans to own the people holding them. As kingdoms, species, streamers, and desperate survivors are dragged into the same apocalyptic game, Hermes will sell what they need most, power, safety, debt, and hope. By the time they realize what he has become, the so called trash peddler may already be the most dangerous man in the series.

Her name is Lensa. A random elf girl herbalist living in a human-populated village. Easy life, huh? No way in hell, she got labelled a witch, thrown out of their home and now... Now she has to run for her life! Someone is clearly plotting, organising her life. And to top it off, even if she cannot use magic, everyone keeps mistaking her for some sort of super-powerful archmage or whatever it is.

Reborn as the Rune Coder Dev was just a coder from India. Then he died—and woke up in a world of magic, monsters, and dungeons. Here, magic is real. Mystical. Powerful. Unpredictable. People chant spells, bend elements, and fight with raw mana. But Dev… can’t. His control over magic is weak. Pathetic. Useless. Until he discovers something else. Runes. Ancient symbols carved into the foundation of magic itself. While others treat them as sacred, unchangeable formulas— Dev sees something different. Structure. Logic. Code. And unlike chaotic magic… Runes can be understood. Modified. Rewritten. What begins as survival becomes experimentation. What becomes experimentation… becomes creation. Rune-powered weapons. Mechanical constructs. Systems no one in this world should be able to build. But in a world ruled by power, bloodlines, and control— A man who can rewrite the language of magic… Is not someone they will ignore.
