The Kingmaker System

"The masterminds are cooler than heroes," I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game. Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit. Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not? *** [Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.] What? [Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.] Wait, what?! [Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.] And, why would I do that?! [Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.] Why would I save him?! [The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?] Ah! I give up... It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things. In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker. I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need? Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though. I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse! Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is... [Failure: Destruction of the World.] It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped. If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing. [Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.] "If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne." And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.

I Got Scammed By An Angel: Book 1

[A Year of Grace- Book 1] Nyxara When I woke up cold, leaning against a tree in the woods, I wondered if there were a few details I wasn't told by the angel who sent me here. It wasn’t long before the brothers I had lost in my past life found me—right as I was trying to find my way out of the woods. They brought me home to the parents who weren’t dead. Since I didn’t get this world’s Nyxara’s memories, I’m claiming amnesia due to trauma. When I was given the choice between redoing my own life or being sent to an alternate universe, I chose the second option. I didn’t want to deal with the shattered remains of my past. What I wasn’t told? While this is a very different life, some people from my old world are still making my life hell in this one. And now, they might have fangs, mind powers, or claws. I’m not the me in my last life, and I’m not the me of this life. So… who am I? On that note, what in the world is an alpha, beta, or omega? Looks like I have a lot to learn—and fast—if I want to graduate from the Sentinels of Accord Academy, let alone survive in a world filled with supernatural beings. It's a new exciting world just waiting for me to claim my place in it. Top 3 in the end of year competitions looks like a good start. This year is going to be amazing. (The romance is slow-burn. 5 mates in total. The romance doesn't really start in this book. All mates are introduced though.) [Daily Chapter Release and Free until completion]

Born Into Villain's Family: I Have a 200% Rebate System

Aurora Waters was overwhelmed with despair when she faced the truth about her family. She had been born into a family of villains. Even worse, her family had an unhealthy obsession with faking their identities. They took “Fake it till you make it” so seriously that it usually ended with them getting killed! Her oldest brother pretended to be a CEO just to mess with the female lead, but that backfired when the male lead showed up and threw him out. Her second brother? He was an obsessive lover who pretended to be a wealthy second-generation heir—until the real heir ended his life. Her third sister? She faked being an heiress to manipulate the second male lead but ended up being killed by him. Her fourth sister? She faked an illness to attract the third male lead’s attention, only to die from a real one. Her mother? She put on a facade of being a kind and loving mom but ultimately met her end at the hands of the male lead. Her father? He pretended to be a powerful tycoon but lost his job and was drowned by the second male lead. And Aurora? She planned to impersonate the daughter of the richest man alive, but if things went the way they always did in her family, she’d probably meet her end by accidentally falling down the stairs. However, there was one glimmer of hope in this nightmare: she had a 100% rebate system that rewarded her for spending money on her family! [Beep! You bought an eraser worth 1 dollar for your eldest brother! 2 dollars have been credited to your bank account!] [Beep! You bought a candy worth 1 dollar for your second brother! 2 dollars have been credited to your bank account!] Aurora’s eyes sparkled as an idea took shape. She began spending on her family like crazy to rake in cash. [Beep! You gave a bun worth 20 dollars to your childhood crush! 100 dollars has been credited to your bank account!] Aurora: …! That’s walking money! What Aurora didn't expect, though, was that she would end up becoming one of the technology big shots herself, in the end.

Armed with her superstar instincts and a melon-eating system that boosted her luck whenever she gossiped or reveled in drama, she was ready to flip the script.

Peeking from the door, An Ning thought she’d catch her boss in the act - after all, the grapevine said he was secretly in a relationship, and it wasn’t every day she could eat melon about her own boss. But the office was empty. Just as she turned to leave, an ominous voice from behind. “Enjoying yourself, Miss An?” She stiffened, caught red-handed.”…I was just passing by.” He stepped closer, his voice low, carrying a hint of amusement. “Passing by at midnight?” The system chimed: [Ding!Unexpected encounter detected - Heartbeat +50] (Side note:”melon-eating” is a Chinese slang for watching or consuming gossip/drama as an onlooker.

Three Lifetimes: I Finally Get My Happy Ending With You

Leanna is an orphan, with no one to depend on, and must face the cruel world alone. She once liked someone when she was still in college, but she never had any luck in life—because that man never had her in his heart. Leanna transmigrated into an Omegaverse novel and became an Omega female in that world, but her life only became worse than before. In the novel world, she became a wealthy villainess, and her misfortunes didn't stop there. The original Leanna had parents and two siblings, but she never received any affection from her family. They all adored Athania Relica—except for her mother. Athania Relica, an Omega female, was adopted by Leanna's father. No one knows that Athania is actually Leanna’s father’s illegitimate daughter. Leanna tried hard to win her family's favor, but everyone doted only on Athania. Leanna had only her mother's love and affection, and that was enough for her to keep going. The original Leanna had a husband, but he only loved Athania, his first love. She could only rely on her mother and herself. Her husband—also the second male lead—married her only as a tool to get closer to his first love. Leanna nearly fainted when she realized she had transmigrated into a tragic novel. But her misfortune didn’t end there. Having an unloved family wasn’t enough—her new husband had the same face as the boss she used to love in her previous world. Not only her husband but his entire family shared the same faces as his real-world counterparts—except for his older sister. --- Leanna stopped caring about her Alpha husband and planned to run away. But then, without her realizing it, he began to change. The Film Emperor knelt on one knee and begged for his wife’s forgiveness. He even did a live broadcast to let the entire world know how much he regretted his past mistakes. "I will do anything for you, but please forgive me, my wife." "I don't need you anymore." "I will let you split open my chest to prove my love for you." Her family also began to change—not long after she started ignoring them. "I won’t let anyone live peacefully after bullying my older sister." "I’ll buy anything for my little sister." "Leanna is my favorite daughter—who says I don’t favor her? They’ll get what they deserve." "..." --- Hugo was Leanna’s former boss—a cold and unreachable man in their country. Hugo never realized his feelings for his secretary until it was too late. She died in his arms, and her death left him haunted by unending nightmares. Then, Hugo was transmigrated into an Omegaverse novel with a second-gender concept. One day, he realized his wife not only looked exactly like his former secretary—she was his secretary. Hugo began his journey to win her back. It’s never too late for a second chance… and to reclaim their happiness. --- [DISCLAIMER: The picture on the cover is not mine.
