Jiro was just scrolling through some Naruto clips before bed, unaware that every edit was being simultaneously transmitted across all timelines of the Shinobi World. Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't bear to watch the replay of his own life. The Uchiha clan discovered their future of annihilation. Madara Uchiha fell silent as he watched "The Truth of the Infinite Tsukuyomi." Namikaze Minato trembled and wept as he read "The Life of Naruto." Naruto Uzumaki learned to form Rasengan ahead of time. Orochimaru, meanwhile, fell into deep contemplation while watching "The Complete Collection of Failed Immortality Experiments." When Jiro finally edited together his own imagined "Perfect Naruto Ending," the history of the entire Shinobi World veered irrevocably toward an unknown point of divergence.

One hundred million players. One year trapped. No way out but through. When a massive VR game becomes a death trap, every player on the EU server faces a brutal reality: die in the game, die in real life. The only escape is to clear it — floor by floor, boss by boss — and with one year gone, two thirds of the first floor's players are already dead. Max Veritas is not a hero. He's a 25-year-old father of twins who spent his first months laying low, waiting for someone else to fix things. But when the void in his heart grew bigger, he could not work a job and live a normal life. He started venturing outside the safe city walls and never looked back. On the upper floors, the race to clear the game is in full swing. Priam Castellan — first ranked, terrifyingly powerful, carrying humanity's hope like a burden — drives his guild forward while Salvation, led by a man who found everything he ever wanted inside the game, fights to stop them from ever leaving. Caught between them: Max's brother and his best friend, who don't yet know where Max is — and Max, who doesn't yet know they're up above. This is a progression fantasy about power earned the hard way, about exploration of multiple worlds and about the test that all players face, one in which they have to choose one of the answers to their predicament: Rise and fight the against the game, while risking your life, or stay in cities, work a job in a video game and wait for other players to do the work you. There might even be a third option for some people which is being content with the game world and living in it happily ever after. A fourth option exists for a special breed of players, who love the game worldnso much they will fight those who want to break out.

Lin Haoran was reborn in 1978 Hong Kong, becoming a wealthy young heir. At this time, the glory of the British financial consortiums was beginning to fade, while Chinese capital was rising rapidly like bamboo after the rain, starting to shine on the international stage. Former British-controlled giants like Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa were becoming prime targets pursued by Chinese entrepreneurs. So, with growing strength, Lin Haoran set his sights on the leading British trading firm—Jardine Matheson... Thank you for the support, friends.

Lucas transmigrates to a parallel world and is thrilled to discover that many of the classic, brilliant games from his past life don’t exist here. Eager to make his mark, he’s also burdened with an "Emotion Collection System"—where players’ emotions like joy, sorrow, excitement, fear, and anger from his games make him stronger. But why is it so much easier to harvest resentment than happiness? Staring at his point earnings, Lucas is utterly baffled. And so, his career as a game designer takes a… creative turn. In Undertale, players slam their desks and scream: "I’m the one being played by this game!" In Outlast, players shriek: "The locker moved! I quit—NOPE!" In Dark Souls, players cheerfully boot up the game, only to beg: "Leave the Fire Keeper and GET OUT! Take your damn flame with you—we refuse to link it!" In Call of Duty, Soap, Roach, and Ghost meet tragic ends; in Final Fantasy VII, Zack falls in battle and Aerith meets her fate; in Red Dead Redemption, Arthur and John are betrayed… Players collectively rage: "DAMN YOU, LUCAS, YOU SADISTIC OLD FOX! CAN’T YOU BE KINDA TO YOUR PROTAGONISTS?!" When asked by a reporter how he feels about players’ fury, LUCAS smiles faintly: "This isn’t hatred—it’s the world’s players urging me forward! This is LOVE! Thank you all; I’ll keep up the good work!"

In times of war… What is a Battle Mecha engineer expected to do? Are they expected to do research and realize their imagination? How about a Battle Mecha pilot? Are they expected to enter battle with their mechas as they display their exquisite control through bizarre and bewildering techniques? What about a member of the special scouts? Are they expected to infiltrate deep into the enemy lines as they use stellar unarmed fighting skills to suppress the enemy with a single move? Or are they expected to make use of disguises and stealth techniques to take out the enemy? And what about a military officer? Are they expected to analyze the outcome of a battle? Or are they expected to create brilliant strategies to triumph over the enemy through a miraculous move? For someone who excels in human psychology, deceit, assassination, and disguise, what happens when that person is merged with all those professions? This is the story of a cowardly, wretched, and despicable fatty.

In the year 3058, humanity has spread across the stars, fueled by a mysterious cosmic metal called MILTONS. This rare energy source powers intergalactic travel, weapons, and even DNA enhancements, creating a universe teeming with alien civilizations and superpowered humans. But among the stars, darkness stirs. The universe is ruled by the Lords of the Twelve Galaxies, fearsome beings who dominate worlds with unimaginable power—and one prophecy haunts them: a child born of a human and a legendary cosmic warrior will rise to overthrow them. That child is Ren Arashi, a seventeen-year-old with black hair streaked in silver, glowing blue eyes, and cosmic energy coursing through his veins. Raised in secret on the hidden planet Elarion, Ren grows unaware of his destiny… until the truths about his father’s death, his mother’s secrets, and his own incredible powers are revealed. Now, Ren must gather allies, awaken his latent cosmic abilities, and challenge the Twelve Galaxy Lords. Across galaxies filled with danger, betrayal, and war, a single question remains: can one young warrior reshape the fate of the universe?

A kaiju ate me alive. I felt my ribs go one at a time. Then something in the dark of its gut decided I was not finished. It started my heart with a hand that was not mine, and I walked out of the corpse on my own two feet, the only person who ever has. That was the night she bought the rights to whatever I had become. One screen. One subscriber. The screen is my life, live and uncut. The subscriber is her, and she pays whatever it costs to keep the feed running: every fight, every wound, every hour I lose to the thing growing up the inside of my spine. When I run, the money finds me. When I bleed, the bid climbs. The Defense Force has me filed as a contaminant. The corporations want me as their next headliner. She understood the part both of them missed: the stronger the parasite makes me, the less of me is left. Every night, behind one glowing screen, the woman who calls herself my sponsor watches me turn into the thing that killed me. She has never once looked away.

Test readers wanted. Please dialogue fairly. First 30 chapters - 1/day. Out in the Galactic North Frontier, survival is the main concern. At least, the Academy thinks so. It's called Sophia Academy, and it's accessible online, which is great for new interstellar students to enter their schooling years from the comfort of their homes. Cody Rivers, age 7 is one such student just starting school. Although he notices a few things odd in the process, he enters a new phase in life and strives for his own opportunities and future in a school that prioritizes learning how to learn and adaptation. Let's be honest - with his mother in dire conditions and his father in the social doghouse, he needs it. His future needs it. But there's a lot to Sophia Academy they don't tell you up front, and there's a lot to Cody Rivers he doesn't tell anyone up front either. (Note: He's not going to stay age 7 forever)

NOT DROPPED Meng Min, an avid "The Legendary Mechanic" reader, transmigrates into the world of "Galaxy". Equipped with knowledge from the novel, an NPC model, and two Esper abilities, Meng Min is overwhelmed by the initial thrill of transmigration. But questions linger in his mind. Why is he here? How should he play his advantages? How should he interact with Galaxy's main character, Han Xiao, to prepare for the looming threat of the World Tree Civilization? Hidden threats bare their teeth as he realizes he is far from the familiar Shattered Star Ring. For transparency's sake, please know that the upload schedule for this fan fiction is awful.

This is my first published work, so there are bound to be errors. If you notice any typos, inconsistencies with the story, or other mistakes, please make them known in the comments! I will address them as I can. Thank you for giving this fan fiction a chance. This fan fiction is tailored toward those who have finished 'The Legendary Mechanic' in its entirety. Therefore, hiding spoilers is not a primary prerogative of mine. I have compiled an introductory chapter to give the basic groundwork of TLM's world.

He just became the newly-crowned movie emperor when he died a tragic (actually, very stupid) death. On his way to cross the NaiHe bridge, he managed to evade Meng Po and not drink her soup. Thus keeping the memories of the life that he just had. But he would never have imagined that he would be reincarnated hundreds of thousands of years later. In the Interstellar era! If it happened to other guys, they would definitely want to be a mecha warrior. Don't most men dream of that at least once in their life? But sadly, that's not for him. There's only one goal in his mind - to be the number one star in the Interstellar era. With the knowledge and skills he got from his past life, he would definitely achieve it. But who was this annoying person who kept on pestering him? A certain prince smiled in a scary and crazy way: Cook food for me or else die. = a few months later = A certain prince leaned over and moved his face closer: I don't need food, I could just eat you. A bad tempered yandere gong X a reincarnated movie emperor shou *NaiHe bridge - a bridge that souls crossed to enter reincarnation **Meng Po - the lady on the Naihe bridge who gives out soup that lets the souls forget their memories, thus entering the cycle of reincarnation in a clean slate.

The INVERTERS. A group of people who dedicate their time to eliminating the threats of the reversed aliens. These creatures feast on what makes a person unique, they feed on a persons being and reasons for doing what they do. As they get infected by the virus they are met with an endless sensation of hunger for flesh and meaning. These creatures have levelled cities and destroyed families while begging for help to die. They cannot help themselves for their bodies succumb to the virus. And so the Inverters were created to end their suffering. Out of all these groups all over the galaxy, there lies one that is completely different. In a reality where people push you down, they push back and stand up. They are the Plasma Nexus. It’s been about 400 years ever since the Judgement order came. Our ancestors came from a place of war and finally created a system that would benefit everyone, because it was “necessary”. And so they separated their cities. The inside would consist of those who came from upright normal homes and citizens. And outside those borders, they were surrounded by Reddes zones. Impoverished areas housing every type of crime imaginable. What they failed to realise was would it be the same for our descendants? A child born into a world of peace has no reason to fight meaning the system of the J.O. did its job. They should have been decommissioned after 100 years, but they didn’t, they wanted order and peace, and that would not have been possible if they disappeared. And now in the 25th century we follow the story of The “Masked Drifter” Iver Tanaka. A 17 year old scavenger who takes on any job unless it involves drugs and taking lives. On a job gone wrong he gets saved and recruited by the Plasma Nexus. They’re an inverter organisation. And a rebellion against the J.O as well. Iver could care less about their goals, all he wants to do is find one man, and eliminate him so that he can finally chase the stars in the very same sky he looked up to for years. It’s time for an inversion on the Judgement Order.
