Transmigrated into the world of Shadow Slave, Hermes awakens an unusual Aspect: Grand Alchemist. While others fight monsters with brute strength and lofty ambition, Hermes studies the logic beneath the system. He sees what others cannot. He inscribes what others only dream of. He breathes life into creations that grow as he grows. To him, runes are not sacred. Aspects are not absolute. They are formulas. And formulas can be rewritten. In a world where power is forged through suffering, Hermes will not simply endure. He will rewrite the rules.

Stranded. Alone. And transmigrated into the world of Pokémon. After a mysterious storm,Umihara Reiji wakes up on a deserted island—not in his own world, but the Pokémon world. No starter, no Poké Balls, no supplies. Just a sea breeze, an empty stomach… and the will to survive. But when he meets a struggling Poliwag, everything changes. With a unique Proficiency System that tracks everything—moves, abilities, even his own fishing and survival skills—every step forward is visible, measurable… and vital. It’s not about becoming a Champion. It’s just about surviving the next day... Notes regarding the worldbuilding: this story leans toward the anime version of the Pokémon world. The protagonist has watched the anime, read the manga, and played the games. He’s a knowledgeable fan. He's an adult, and will think like one—rational, skeptical, analytical. The early chapters of this story are slow-paced and heavily focused on survival—resource gathering, shelter-building, and forging a bond with Poliwag. Raw : "精灵：钓鱼佬的雨天队"

In Dwarkam, people are not born equal. Some are born Halocrats, wrapped in power and worship. Some are born Gutterborn, taught to keep their heads down and their mouths shut. Zane Atlas was a Gutterborn. Eighteen years old. Hungry. Beaten. Invisible. The world taught him one rule early: Filth shouldn’t look up. When the Golden Slab descended from the sky, it gave power to those who caressed it. Most gained skills. Some gained status. Many gained hope. Zane gained something else. Something that was never meant to awaken. Something that watches before it judges. Something that acts only when survival is at stake. [ Conflux System ] It does not reward obedience. It grows through choices. And it can merge anything Zane owns… including his body, his instincts, and his will to survive. Now Zane walks a thin line between staying alive and being discovered. Between obeying a world that hates him and becoming something it must erase. The churches are watching. The crowns are stirring. The monsters are waking. And Zane is learning one terrifying truth: Sometimes, being chosen is worse than being powerless. ——— ——— ——— Support Me - ko-fi.com/khyaal Join My Discord For Reference Arts and much more - https://discord.gg/zmUcswM2N5

Elric Voss is sixteen years old, two ranks above useless, and he wakes up one hour before everyone around him dies. The Caelith Mourne expedition has camped at the base of a sky-fallen pyramid ten thousand years old, and something sealed inside it has finally been disturbed. When the ground splits and the demons come, the thirty-one members of the expedition are dead inside of ten minutes. Elric wakes up again. Same tent, same wind, same pyramid filling the sky. One hour on the clock. He dies to the first demon in seconds. Then again. Then again... Magus Infinite is the story of a young acolyte who has nothing, no great power, no secret destiny, no teacher who believes in him, grinding the same hour of carnage until nothing in it can kill him anymore. Every death teaches him something. Every reset sharpens him. The spell that begins as a candle-flicker becomes a bolt that cracks the sky. The boy who could not survive two seconds against a single demon slowly becomes the only thing standing between the pyramid and the world outside it. The action never stops. Neither does Elric. This is not a story about a chosen hero. It is a story about what repetition does to a person. Join the discord. https://discord.gg/rrBjm4dvy

John figured death was supposed to mean peace at last. His whole life got wrecked by heartbreak and betrayal and all that loss, so the grave ought to just end it there, right? But no, he wakes in the body of a child, dragged into the clutches of the Obsidian Covenant — a secret order that forges children into weapons. At first, all he wanted was survival. But surrounded by others just as broken, John finds himself pulled into their struggle, swearing to protect what little hope they have left. The god who put him here watches with cruel amusement, torturing him just for the sake of it...or maybe not. If John wants revenge, or even a chance at freedom, he’ll have to rise through the world of Cassiopeia, uncover the secrets binding him to this place, and turn his anger into something sharper than any blade. Peace is gone. Now there’s only the vow: to kill the god. *** I would like to say This story is kind of like a chimera. so, expect it to shift and evolve as the journey unfolds, never bound to a single genre. and although the narrative introduces darker themes, the story evolves beyond them to explore resilience and growth. *** New chapter of The Uncrowned Paragon drops every week—at least one within 7 days, sometimes more. Thanks for reading and stay tuned.

A world full of unknown Anomalies, Curses and Summons, (human-spawned entities) has infested our world. The only way to prevent further catastrophe is through the work of elite curse-hunting officers. Their job is to locate the high points (sources) of the curses and eliminate them before things can get any worse.

The Third Shinobi World War has ended, but peace has not truly arrived. With the Third Mizukage forced to step down, the Three-Tails fallen into slumber after the death of its Jinchuriki, Kirigakure weakened by war, and hostile forces watching from every direction, the Land of Water stands at the edge of chaos. At that moment, sixteen-year-old Rei Kaguya steps forward. Born into the Kaguya clan and raised in the ruthless shadow of the Bloody Mist, Rei is not content with merely surviving the age of war. Armed with a mysterious rune system, terrifying combat talent, and a mind sharp enough to see through the political games of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, he seizes the title of Fourth Mizukage. But becoming Mizukage is only the beginning. To save Kirigakure from becoming a village ruled by blood, fear, and endless killing, Rei must reform its broken system, suppress ambitious clans, outmaneuver foreign enemies, and reshape the future of shinobi itself. Konoha, Iwagakure, Kumogakure, Root, Akatsuki, Uchiha Obito, Madara’s shadow, and the hidden currents of the ninja world all begin moving around him. In an era where monsters decide the fate of nations, Rei Kaguya asks only one question: “Who agrees? Who opposes?” Author ：埃尔德卷轴 Translator: Inkveil_

He was in his early twenties when the world decided to end for him. A computing prodigy, educated at MIT, someone who understood systems, patterns, and limits better than most. In his previous life, power didn’t come from fists, but from the mind — lines of code capable of shaping digital realities. Then he died. And was born again. Reincarnated into the DC Universe as a helpless baby, he grew up in a world where gods walk among humans, where vigilantes defy the impossible, and where power is rarely fair — or free. While others trusted destiny, chance, or inherited gifts, he trusted only one thing: process. Memory intact. Intellect intact. Ambition intact. From an early age, he understood a simple and cruel truth: in that world, those who do not grow are crushed. And so, far from the spotlight of the League, he began to build something forbidden — his own Artificial Intelligence, created not to save the world, but to optimize it. To make him stronger. More efficient. More prepared to survive among monsters, aliens, and symbols. While heroes were born from tragedy, he forged himself in silence. While villains sought external power, he engineered it from within. This is not the story of a chosen one. It is the story of someone who decided to become inevitable. Between code and chaos, science and superhumans, begins the rise of a man who does not believe in miracles — only in evolution. This story was inspired by a fanfiction I read years ago — a work I deeply admire and still reread to this day. Unfortunately, that story was never continued. This project is not a continuation, rewrite, or replacement of that original work. It is an independent story, created with its own plot, characters, and direction, merely inspired by the ideas and feelings that the original story left with me.
