The Extra's Law

Adrian awoke in the world of his novel as an Extra who looked exactly like himself, from his face to his name. However, he possessed a beautiful life and had everything he had ever wanted—completely different from his previous life. He believed his novel had given him a gift by creating a happy version of himself who had it all—without his knowledge. But that happiness was not free... After a few days of searching, he finally realized that the 'Safe Zone' he was currently in was different from his main character's, and the distance between them was almost an entire continent. 'What is a Safe Zone?' A Safe Zone is a place where humans who survived the Great Calalys gathered. They built massive walls to shelter from the incredibly powerful monsters that emerged from the gates—now called First Generation Monsters. The Great Calamity scattered humanity, and the survivors believed they were the only remaining civilization. The problem was... Adrian had always written the story from his main character's point of view and knew nothing about life outside of it. He had only written that there were other Safe Zones out there. His knowledge of the plot was useless because he was in a different place, and worse yet... The plot connection between him and his main character was that his Safe Zone would be found completely destroyed, without a trace. Back then, he had written that merely as a spice for his novel's mystery, to make it better. But now he realized the consequence: He had written his own death. Now, Adrian was trapped in a writer's worst dilemma. To survive, he had to do the impossible: change the fate he had set himself as The Creator. However, in a world that ran on narrative logic, saving himself was not an action without consequences. Every deviation from the storyline could draw the attention of "World Law"—an abstract force that would attempt to "fix" the broken plot, in ways potentially more cruel than mere monsters. At the crossroads between his valuable new life and the stability of the world's story, Adrian had to decide: Was it better to die as inspiration for the hero, or to live as an anomaly that could collapse everything? This is not a tale about becoming a hero in a new world. This is an Extra's war against a death-fate like a ticking time bomb that he wrote himself. And even if he succeeds? This world, running on narrative logic, may not let him be.

The Villain's Retirement

Hello, I live in the Demon Continent. The land of ash skies, endless night, and the towering citadel where the Demon King lives and rules over everything and everybody. No one dares speaks back to him. And yet, lately, the humans, guided by their fickle gods and led by their so-called heroes have started to win for some inexplicable reason. But honestly? I couldn't care less. “Every day is so boring,” I muttered as I watched their armies breach our borders. “I feel indifferent about everything. Isn’t there anything that could make life even slightly entertaining?” From the highest balcony of the Demon King’s castle, with the smoke of war curling up toward me, the demon castle rumbled as the gates were finally breached and the fight of the heroes against the Demon King has began. While that was happening, I entertained these thoughts without urgency, without fear, just mild curiosity. Who am I, you ask? I am not the Demon King. I am not his right hand, nor his left. But if one were to rank us, I would be the second-strongest existence in this land. In a story, I suppose I would be the “Hidden Boss.” The truth is, I don’t care about the demon king and the hero's party. Unlike the Demon King, I feel nothing for this world, no loyalty, no greed for conquest or power. Unlike the Hero, I do not understand what he was fighting for. If anything, I just feel tired. I do not feel any purpose. I don’t know why I even exist. I look from the veranda and watch. Before me, I cannot see nothing but the barren lands and the dark forests of the Demon Continent. I try to remember the color in the human realm. I miss it. If there was anything I wanted to do, that was only to live in peace in the human realm. Should I kill the Demon King and leave? …Tempting, but unrealistic. He’d annihilate me before I even got the chance. So I sigh, and I wait, and I watch. Then, in a twist no demon had expected, the hero's party defeated the Demon King. Just like that, a thousand years of war ended—and the world entered an era of “peace”. And so, with nothing left to tie me here, I left. Retired from demon life.

Trash of a Wealthy Family: My Gacha System Guarantees S-Rank Rewards

Aiden was born into the wealthiest family on the Revonia Continent— the Arclight Clan, owners of an SS-rank Mana Vein. A clan that lived by a single doctrine: “Power builds legacy. Wealth sustains legacy. Family is optional.” Aiden, however, was different. Where others schemed, he showed kindness. Where others chased power, he chose compassion. The clan called him the "useless heir," a boy unfit to bear the Arclight name. But everything collapsed during the Origin Awakening Ceremony. Before the entire clan, Aiden awakened the weakest result imaginable: (F-Rank Unique Ability and Origin Heart detected) (Minor Null Field) – Causes minor disturbance in skill activation and mana flow. Humiliated, mocked, and abandoned, not a single member of his family stepped forward to defend him. By sundown, Aiden was expelled— stripped of his title, status, resources, and home. The heir of the Arclights became homeless in a single day. Yet even at his lowest, he refused to break. Even as everyone walked away, something else reached out. [Compatible host found] [Initializing System Awakening…] [Origin Gacha System bonded to host] [Minimum Reward: S-Rank] Now armed with a Gacha System capable of granting Bloodlines, Physiques, Skills, Treasures, Summons, and more, Aiden begins his rise from nothing.
