In the world of Genshin Impact, you gain an ability that lets you go fifty–fifty with anyone. What would you do with it? Cael says—obviously, you’d live the laid-back life. After all, if you don’t enjoy life in the world of Genshin, what’s the point? And so, whenever people mention Cael, they all end up saying the same thing: “This is the guy who claims he can’t beat anyone?!” He fought Tartaglia (Childe) of the Fatui to a draw. He fought the Raiden Shogun to a draw. Even Morax—Zhongli himself once remarked that if he were to seriously fight Cael, it might just trigger a second Archon War. Meanwhile, the Traveler, Lumine, has this to say: “I’ve never seen him defeat anyone… but I’ve also never seen anyone defeat him.”

"Humanity is no longer a species. It is a resource." ​The world didn’t end with a bang, but with a system update. When the sky fractured to reveal the circuits of Yggdrasil, 8 billion humans received the same notification: [STATUS: OBSOLETE]. ​To avoid being deleted by Odin’s System, there is only one way out: The Deadly Hunt. For 14 days, Earth becomes an open-air slaughterhouse governed by Seven Merciless Laws. Here, morality is a bug and empathy is a tax that condemns you to poverty. ​Elias, an ordinary man with a starting value of zero, must navigate this technological hell. To survive, he will have to sell his humanity at the Ascension Shop, graft horrors onto his own flesh, and betray his own kind. Because in this game, you don't get stronger. You become something else. ​The first to reach the Core will rewrite reality. The rest will simply be deleted data. ​The harvest has begun. Are you the predator, or the Essence?

Jin walks a road that feeds his family—and condemns his soul. In a quiet county where law is thin and hunger is constant, Jin lives as a devoted husband and father by day and an outlaw by necessity when the sun sets. He robs travelers not for greed, but for a future he cannot reach himself—sending his son toward a sword academy that promises escape from poverty. But roads remember men who walk them too often. As patrols tighten and whispers spread through the county, Jin’s careful balance begins to fracture. Every raid leaves a mark. Every step draws the law closer. And with each choice, Jin drifts further from the man he wants his children to remember. Trapped between survival and legacy, Jin must decide how much of himself he is willing to sacrifice—before the road demands a final payment. A dark, psychological fantasy about fatherhood, moral compromise, and the cost of walking a path that never forgets.

Waking up with a new, younger body and his past erased, 47 must navigate a world where the targets are more dangerous and the stakes are global. A new variable has entered the equation. While the Avengers may save the world from the sky, 47 is here to remind them that the true work is done in silence. --- I do not own the Hitman franchise, Marvel, or any of the characters mentioned in this fanfiction (I wish). This work is intended solely for entertainment purposes, and no copyright infringement is intended. --- What to expect: - I use AI to help enhance my writing and some dialogue, so if anything feels a little “AI slop,” my bad. - Expect 3 chapters per week. - 2k+ Average words/chap - This is an AU, so don’t expect the plot to follow the original timeline. - I’m not sure yet if there will be romance. If you know 47, then you know how impossible that is… lol - There's no system. - There's a slice of life. I wanna give importance to 47's layers and give more depth to who he is beyond the missions. - 47 is better here. Imagine 47 with NZT and SSS. Well, that's my estimate of his capability in here --- If you want to read some advanced chapters, just check out my pa treon. You can support me or not, your choice. patr eon.com/ ReaderViewPoint

In a world where gods walk unseen among mortals, one young man is about to discover he was never meant to exist. Tony Code has always been different. Emotionless. Logical. Brilliant in ways that defy explanation. But he's always assumed he was just broken. Human, but wrong. He was wrong about being human. Eighteen years ago, the goddess of Knowledge defied the cosmic order. She gave birth to seventeen divine children and scattered them across dimensions, each one a beacon designed to elevate mortals beyond their appointed place. But her eighteenth child, Syntax, god of Computer Science, she hid differently. Born mortal. Raised human. Fragmented across reality in a way that should be impossible. When a library burns and Tony saves a girl he barely knows, everything changes. Gods are real. Dimensions are layered. Time flows differently for immortals. And Zeus, king of the Greek pantheon, has been hunting for him since his first breath. Now Tony must navigate a war that began before he was born. Guided by Marcus, a former messenger god haunted by a dying promise and protected by Grimmey, a narcissistic physics deity whose essence is unraveling, Tony searches for siblings he never knew existed and the truth about why his mother sacrificed everything to hide him. But Zeus's hunters don't give second chances. And in a reality where gods operate outside time, Tony's mortality might be his only advantage... or his greatest weakness. Can a god who doesn't understand emotions learn why finite existence matters more than eternal power? Can logic defeat beings who define reality's rules? The gods rule dimensions. Tony Code is learning to rewrite them. AUTHOR'S NOTE Welcome to The Gods Rule Dimensions, I Rewrite Them! If you love: - Complex power systems that actually make sense - Clever protagonists who use logic over plot armor - Mythology with real consequences - Found family between broken, flawed characters - Magic systems that double as philosophy You're in the right place. What to expect: - Slow, earned character growth (Tony starts at "I don't understand emotions") - Gods operate on different time systems, this matters to the plot - No harem. Relationships are earned and meaningful - Power system with rules. Wins and losses have reasons - Chapters vary (1000-2500 words) for better pacing What NOT to expect: - OP protagonist from chapter one (Tony's the weakest fragment right now) - Training arcs that solve everything - Deus ex machina (okay maybe once... you'll owe a god of Greed for it) Update Schedule: 3-7 chapters weekly. Quality over speed. A Request: Leave reviews and comments! Knowing what works (or doesn't) helps me improve. I love discussing lore and answering world-building questions. Spot inconsistencies? Tell me. I've built something complex here and need your help keeping it consistent. Thanks for giving this story a chance. Let's see what happens when a god who doesn't understand emotions must learn why mortality matters. Let's rewrite some dimensions together. — Tyrant Sama

Just as you go past the jungle and the old school of sector 5, on that barren land, there once stood a lovely home. A retired army officer and single mother named Alena lived with her three children. A fiercely protective mom - yeah she definitely was. Too protective of her little ducklings. But then one evening, after returning to the home she held so dearly, Alena felt a presence. Something was wrong. An intruder. Unseen yet unmistakable, It seemed to lurk behind the walls or those damned doors. You see, as her fear for her children deepened, patience soon abandoned her. The line between real danger and her growing paranoia began to blur. And soon, the curtains were pulled back. What lay hidden within the house was far darker than an intruder. A buried government secret, powerful enough to ignite an entire city. As troopers close in and citizens turn their fingers toward Alena, suspicion tightens like a rough noose. So I ask you, To the assembly, To this gathering: Was there truly someone hiding in the house… or Was Alena fighting demons she can no longer control?

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
