In a Hyrule on the brink of collapse, long before the hero awakens, Eric Thalren does not wield a legendary sword… he simply builds roads. With the aid of a mysterious system, Eric transforms a small, forgotten village into a hub of trade and defense, fighting not to conquer the world, but to survive it. As corrupted Divine Beasts unleash their fury, routes fall into disrepair and settlements grow isolated. While others wait, seated in faith for the promised hero to rise, Eric chooses the unthinkable: to set the world in motion again, when everyone else has stopped trying.

[Single Love Interest GL/Yuri!] (Tsundere Fox-In-A-Wolf) X (Patient Wolfpack Leader) ⧖ ⧖ ⧖ I never asked to be a part of werewolf society - or this world. Every day that passes, the mating bond between my protector and I threatens to occur, once and for all. To consume me entirely... and lock my path with this world that sits on the brink. ⧖ ⧖ ⧖ One minute I was Citra Lomdi - a Princess to a kingdom of silk and secrets in a whole other place. There, I was a *magnificent* Fox shifter... maneuvering effectively enough in the gilded cage that was my life. The next thing I knew... I was trapped in the body of a she-werewolf being rejected by her mate. A man that wanted the original owner, Helene Duskpaw, to accept the rejection of the bond so badly that he'd be easily convinced to kill me. He did *almost* seem to be trying! But my problems didn't end there. An 'Apocalypse System' has chosen me. Or this body. A countdown timer reminds me, whenever I look, that fate can be measured. That there might be a point to my arrival here. A fierce & brilliant female CEO of a supernatural society tech empire has their sights on me, too. The Alpha of the Rimecoat Pack that is quite annoyingly... as sexy as she is powerful. This Kyrie Voss also seems to believe she is my fated mate. Silly wolf superstitions. Whether that is true or not, isn't really important! I'm caught in between a cold-snap future and a hot-love pursuit... but I will not be caged and tamed. Not by the bickering wolf within me I share this body with, the rogues that see me unmarked, or the Alpha that can set my blood on fire with her amazing restraint... Even as I set her ablaze with my touch. The issue that I'm not sure I'm fit to handle is... Helene was pregnant before she died. So now, I am too. ⧖ ⧖ ⧖ Other Relevant Tags: #Comedy #Serious #Dramatic #SliceOfLife #PowerfulCouple #KingdomBuilding #Seductive #Survival #FatedLove #Supernatural #Romance #Urban #Fox #Tsundere

[Assessment Complete. Activating Mutagen, Please Standby….] A normal day is suddenly turned on its head when a single voice utters those fateful words into the minds of every single soul on the planet. It was after those words that every single man, woman and child was granted the opportunity to gain fantastical abilities in the name of evolution. Not even the plants or animals were spared by the words of this mysterious voice. Yet not everyone got what they hoped for. Some developed no powers at all, their bodies not yet ready for the process. Others, were simply too frail to handle it. Mutating into horrific creatures, nightmares made real. Seth Quinn, a slightly below average IT worker, developed a unique ability. The Puppeteers Threads. The ability to turn inanimate objects into his obedient puppets. Will he and those he loves survive in this hellish new world? Will his new ability lead him to a life of greatness he always dreamed of? Could he become a Master of Puppets? ----------------------------------------------------- A book about an apocalyptic world and the powers that have risen within. Following the unique blend of necromantic and Summoning abilities, with a twist that offers many more opportunities. Admittedly, it has a slightly slow start, especially in the first 5 chapters. It's something I regret now, but can't change. I can only try to improve, so I hope you stick through it and get to the good meat that starts around chapter 5 at least. General warning for graphic descriptions of death and injury. There will be bloodshed, not gonna be sunshine and rainbows. Other warnings for other issues, such as self harm or implications of sexual assault Will be provided at the start of the chapters, but even then they are just implied. Nothing explicit.

Lily wants to die. That's all he ever wanted. He wakes up every day hoping that a fortunate accident happens that may lead him to his death. Well, Gods have never been fair so why would they let him have his way? There is no way the world would let him die. No matter how hard he tries, the circumstances will never let him be harmed. He is loved by luck... so much that it can be considered a curse. Suddenly, a terror-filled apocalypse engulfed the whole world in chaos. And in the middle of it, Lily was engrossed. Would he finally die? Is the Heavens finally listening to his pleas? No. They did not. They never will. ____ Arc 1 Three Worlds in One- On-going TW: Gore -AVAILABLE ON TAPAS-

Due to the whims of a higher-dimensional being called "The One", the World of Terra ushered in a Monthly Apocalypse World Update Era. Every month, the World will draw a random monthly apocalypse world update theme, and the world will transform depending on what update theme has been drawn. Starting with a Zombie Apocalypse World theme, The World of Terra became infested with zombies! As a transmigrator, Zayne Voss, who thought he was living in a normal modern world, was caught up in this madness. Fortunately, he awakened the innate ???-rank talent, the Doomsday Life Simulator System! [The Doomsday Life Simulator System allows the host to simulate your future and life in a given doomsday scenario.] [For example, the simulator will randomly draw a doomsday scenario, and one of them might be a zombie apocalypse scenario. In that case, the host can experience life in a zombie apocalypse world.] [Of course, it's not limited to that, as there are also different kinds of doomsday scenarios like the Helios Extinction Event, where the sun explodes and humanity faces such a world-ending scenario.] [Not all doomsday scenarios are winnable and survivable, as some can be a dead end. However, your goal is not to win but to survive as long as possible and attain as many achievements as possible.] [The longer you survive and the more you accomplish within that doomsday scenario, the higher your score will be. The higher the score, the greater the rewards you'll receive.] [The rewards you can receive are mostly related to the power, skill, experiences, and talent that you possessed before the doomsday life simulation ended. They will be brought back to the real world so the host can gain power from doing life simulations.] -Ding! [The host can choose one doomsday scenario from four of the following:] [A. Helios Extinction Event] [B. AI Singularity Rebellion] [C. Global Ocean Survival] [D. Acid Rain Catastrophe] Drawing the doomsday scenario called "Global Ocean Survival," where everyone started with a wooden raft on a vast ocean, Zayne grinded in the doomsday simulation to become stronger in the real world! While everyone was still running away from zombies, Zayne had already eaten a Fairy Fruit from the Global Ocean Survival World and killed all the zombies around him!

System Player: Luna When Luna opens her eyes, the world she knew is gone. In its place stands a ruined city governed by an invisible system—one that assigns levels, grants skills, and turns survival into a game with no exit. Monsters roam freely. Players fight for power. Death is permanent. Luna is not special because she is strong. She is special because she connects. From the moment the system awakens her, something about Luna unsettles its rigid rules. Her abilities don’t focus on destruction or domination, but on bonds—threads that tie souls together, allowing trust, strength, and emotion to become power. Where others rise alone, Luna grows alongside those who choose to stand with her. As she gathers a small unit of survivors, Luna becomes the quiet center holding them together. Kai, a disciplined warrior haunted by control. Twin siblings Mira and Arin, sharp-tongued and fiercely loyal. A broken family hiding secrets the system wants erased. And Liora—a silent girl hunted by the system itself. Together, they build more than a team. They build a home. But the system is watching. As Luna’s power evolves, it begins to reveal an unsettling truth: she was never meant to exist this way. Classified as a Legacy Anchor, Luna represents something the system cannot fully calculate—choice, empathy, and growth beyond control. Every bond she forms destabilizes the rules that govern this world, drawing attention from powerful enemies and elite hunters who seek to claim or destroy her. Caught between survival and rebellion, Luna must decide what kind of player she will become. Because in a world designed to turn people into weapons, choosing to care might be the most dangerous act of all. System Player: Luna is a post-apocalyptic progression fantasy filled with emotional depth, slow-burn romance, found family, and a living system that fears the one player it cannot command. And this time… The system may have chosen wrong.

It's not just a story about one world or one person's problems. It's a story from many worlds, from many lives and deaths. It's a story of the people we meet, the desire to live and find peace in death. There is no death for the grave keeper. Nothing in this world is eternal. The grave keeper will die when the world dies.

Darius didn’t get the Isekai story everyone dreamed of…. Instead, the fantasy world came to him when their planet merged with another in the middle of a world-breaking war between five brutal factions. Suddenly, thirty percent of the population had Systems that classified them by their lifestyles and enviroments. Dragons perched on Skyscrapers, Templars holed up in churches as Demon hordes ravaged cities. Elves and Orcs waged a war of magic and muscle. In the forests, where Darius happened to be when the world merged, beasts emerged. Beasts of all kinds. And it’s among these beasts that Darius becomes one in his own right. (A/N: No Harem, but there will be romance. more focus on pack dynamics and other relationships overall. Extra tags: Beast Taming, Rarebloodline, intelligent mc, fast-paced,)

In a world overrun by monstrous creatures and dark entities, humanity is forced to fight back. A renowned organization develops an evolutionary method to combat these threats. Using advanced technology, they create Systems through a combination of neural interfaces, high-tech implants, energy conduits, and Magic Cores. These components channel and amplify raw magical energy, simulate hidden abilities, and awaken extraordinary skills in chosen individuals. Advanced machines study the Magic Core, revealing the powers and traits it contains and fusing them with the compatible human host. Through this process, a human can access the abilities of the supernatural being inside the Core, gaining skills and strength far beyond normal limits. As the world evolves many of these dark entities also now evolve and can blend into society, making them nearly impossible to detect until it’s too late. Ezekiel is chosen to wield the Sorcerer System, granting him the power to control magic. Alongside him are his squadmates, each equipped with their own unique Systems, combining their powers to take on deadly missions. Together, they face formidable enemies, navigate a society where danger could come from anywhere, and uncover hidden conspiracies that threaten humanity itself.

[3+ NEW CHAPTERS DAILY] Fifty years ago, the world ended. The Awakening unleashed nightmare creatures that devoured civilization, leaving humanity to cower behind the walls of seven isolated cities. In Bastion, survival means scavenging the ruins beyond the barriers—and never asking what waits in the dark. Kael Thorne has spent his life scraping by in the Lower City, stealing from the dead to keep his sister alive. But when Lyra falls ill with a strange wasting sickness that no physician can explain, Kael discovers something impossible: he can see the threads of fate itself. Golden threads bind people together. Red threads warn of impending death. And black threads... black threads reveal a corruption spreading through the city like a plague. His gift comes with a terrible price. Every thread he cuts to change someone's fate burns away months—sometimes years—of his own life. As the barriers that protect Bastion begin to fail and the nightmares grow bolder, Kael must decide how much of himself he's willing to sacrifice. Because some threads were never meant to be cut. And some fates are hungry.

In the year 2047, Earth is dying. Mana rot devours the oceans, cities sink into black sludge, and humanity clings to survival like rats in a collapsing cage. Kael Eze is nobody. A Level 1 Scavenger. A corpse hauler. A man who drags the dead for scraps while the world ends around him. Then the sky rips open. A cold, mechanical voice echoes in every surviving soul: [Final Calibration Complete] [Earth: UNSALVAGEABLE] [Sovereign Selection Protocol — Activated] [1 candidate chosen out of 8.4 billion…] Kael is selected. Not as a hero. Not as a savior. As the lowest possible thing: a Sovereign Candidate with 0.0001% authority. Thrown into the Infinite Staircase — the Throne of Ashes — where death is permanent, mercy is myth, and the first floor alone is rated ×7 difficulty. He awakens as an infant in a crib of blackened ribs. A six-winged nightmare calls him “little calamity” and laughs as ash-eaters scent fresh sovereign flesh. But something broken inside Kael wakes up too. [Hidden Trait: Soul Devouring Gluttony (EX)] Devour anything. Become anything. Regret nothing. From the weakest newborn king at the bottom of infinity, Kael begins a ruthless climb. He consumes gods, steals bloodlines, devours worlds, and carves his name into the fabric of broken realities. Betrayed by fate, hunted by ancient horrors, cursed by the very throne he claims — he doesn’t seek redemption. He seeks dominion. Because if the universe decided he was trash… then he’ll become the monster that devours the trash-heap entire. Weakest start. Highest stakes. No mercy. No limits. Only ashes… and the sovereign who rises from them. Will the last candidate become the Last Sovereign — or just another forgotten name in the void?

They stole his future and crippled his body. Now, he’ll rewrite the history in blood. Damon was on the verge of greatness, first in line to claim Bloodreign, the legendary artifact said to grant unmatched power in Earth Online, the world’s first fully immersive VR game. But his best friend betrayed him, stealing the item, and leaving Damon broken, crippled and nearly deleted. Kicked from the guild, mocked by the community, and trapped in a weak, crippled body, he was forgotten until his last desperate attempt somehow brought him back in time to the day when it all began. Now Damon was back and he knew what he was going after. A hidden lineage. A cursed class. A bloodline sealed since the dawn of the multiverse. Last time he played fair. Last time he trusted. This time he would hunt and devour. With years of knowledge of every exploit, every secret quest, every bugged mechanic, he will climb straight to the top. Armed with the blood of the first Vampire King, he was an apex predator now who stood at the very top. However, unbeknownst to him, a catastrophe lurks in the shadows. Damon finds out that the game itself might not be as simple as it seemed and the entire future of the humanity might depend on this game.

When the Global Apocalypse System descended, every adult received the same message… [ Select the Apocalypse you’d like to challenge. ] [ You have limited time. Fail to choose, and the system will choose for you. ] Dragons, demons, zombies, deep sea creatures, aliens, vampires, machines… They will enter an apocalypse! Each survivor was allowed only one choice. One Apocalypse. One Gift Pack. Then, they would all receive their unique Talent… But Kai awakened something unusual. He received Infinite Gift Packs… every survival kit, every resource, every starter’s advantage was there… While others struggle with scarcity, Kai alone walks with abundance. No matter which Apocalypse he enters, his arsenal will decide who survives… and who perishes… or so he thought. Compared to other Survivors with Talents that gives them super strength, special eye, mystical ability, and other unusual talent like invisibility, can he really survive or even end this apocalypse?

The Academy was built to protect humanity's future. When the world collapsed, it became their cage. Zyther is a former student of Black Shore Academy, an elite institution known for shaping specialists and breaking the rest. Officially, he is listed as a dropout. Unofficially, he survived. Seven years after leaving, Zyther lives quietly, hiding scars—both visible and buried—that the Academy never acknowledged. When the past begins to resurface, he is forced to confront what Black Shore took from him, and whether escaping it was ever enough.

Shawn was bitten by a zombie on the very first day he arrived in the world of The Walking Dead. Just when he thought he was finished, he unexpectedly awakened the “7 Days to Die” system. In this apocalyptic world overrun by the undead, he wielded a massive warhammer, striking fear not only into zombies—but also into the hearts of the surviving humans. From Quarry Camp to the Prison Fortress… From Southeast Atlanta to the entire United States… With the system in hand, Shawn crushed everything in his path, climbing to the top step by step on a mountain of corpses. Yet sometimes, even he felt confused. "Weren’t zombies supposed to be endless?" "So why do there seem to be fewer and fewer the more I kill?"

The iron in Syzespol is rotting, and the city has finally started to scream. ​Vargas is a man dragging a corpse of a life through the acidic filth of the Lower District. He’s held together by a 'Hip Clock'—a jagged piece of machinery jammed into his pelvis that grinds bone into powder every time he moves. He isn't just running for his life; he’s fighting for a son who is becoming a stranger. Brant’s skin is turning into clicking, oily plates, and his heartbeat has been replaced by the cold, rhythmic hum of an engine. The boy’s eyes don't see a father anymore; they only reflect the predatory hunger of the Grey Marshes. ​Old prisons are breathing again. Hunters are stalking the fog. As they descend toward the rusted spires where the air tastes like ammonia and burnt grease, Vargas faces a jagged, ugly truth: you can patch up the flesh, but you can’t save the soul. In a city built on the bones of the weak, the Industrial Furnace is always hungry. ​When they reach the bottom, the question isn’t who will survive—it’s whether anything human will be left to stand.
