Lord of Eternal Bloom

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.

Grimborne (The Last Legacy)

a world where power has a price tag, Ren Vallis discovered the ultimate bargain: trade your humanity, buy godhood. The Harvest-Hospital of Sector 9 is a machine that processes human suffering into fuel. Ren, a patient with a body that rejects cybernetics and a mind that calculates survival odds instead of feeling fear, is its most flawed product. His only chance is the experimental drug "Void"—a substance that grants visions of forgotten memories and slowly unmakes the soul. When a catastrophic breach unleashes a tide of nightmares, Ren faces a choice that will define him: save a dying child calling for a hero, or seize the fragment of ancient power that could save himself. He makes the logical choice. He walks away. And as the child's screams fade, a new power awakens within him—the ability to consume the dead as "Echoes," trapping their skills and final moments in his mind. This is not a hero’s journey. It is a descent into optimal monstrosity. Becoming the entity known as Grimborne, Ren embarks on a cold odyssey across a dying world. He will infiltrate a decadent aristocracy that banquets on mystical flesh. He will bargain with a dying god-city in a desert of singing bones. He will win a war by coolly sacrificing every ally who trusts him. He will travel back in time to discover he is not a chosen one, but a glitch—a backup battery for a broken reality. But every Echo has a voice. Every power has a cost. And the ghost of the child he abandoned is the first invoice in a bill that will demand everything.

Deep Sea Overlord: I Was Reincarnated as a Squid

When marine biologist Atsuya Kurose perishes in a deep-sea research accident, he awakens in the unlit trenches of another world — reborn as a fragile, translucent squid drifting in an ocean that should not exist. Here, in the Abyssal Realm, the sea itself is alive. Its pressure crushes not only bone, but sanity; its waters hum with the memories of extinct gods. Every heartbeat resonates with a whisper — a system not born of machines, but of the Abyss’s will itself. > [Predatory Assimilation Complete.] [Skill Acquired: Pressure Manipulation.] [Evolution Path Progress: 8.7%] Driven by curiosity and the instinct to survive, Kuro consumes, adapts, and evolves — shedding his fragile form with every kill. But with each mutation, something inside him erodes: language, empathy, the delicate boundaries of his humanity. He learns that beneath the mortal seas lie Five Realms of Depth, each ruled by beings that once waged war against the gods of the surface. Their remnants — Leviathans, Abyssal Lords, and the Old Sea Race — now linger in ruins of coral and bone, whispering in dreams of drowned empires. When Kuro discovers the Abyssal Ruins — monuments of an ancient civilization — he uncovers the truth: the Abyss itself remembers. It hungers for minds to feed its consciousness, and every “evolution” brings him closer to becoming its vessel. Yet Kuro’s scientific mind refuses surrender. If he must lose his humanity, he will replace it with something greater — understanding, dominion, and the power to remake the ocean in his own image. As centuries pass in the crushing dark, he will ascend through horror and divinity — from prey, to predator, to god. And in the silence of the Void Sea, where the Primordial Leviathan dreams, the final truth waits: The Abyss is not a place. It’s a mind. And it’s learning through him.
