The Villian Woke Up And Chose Soft Rice

Synopsis: The Villain Woke Up and Chose Soft Rice Lin Chen was a top-tier programmer and hacker—self-taught, obsessive, and running on caffeine and spite. He spent years grinding through all-nighters, chasing deadlines, cracking systems for corporate security firms. His body finally gave out at his desk: heart palpitating, vision fading, a single thought echoing—I just want to rest. He wakes up in a penthouse suite. A beautiful woman sleeps beside him. His phone shows a bank balance with seven figures—monthly allowance. And a floating system message reads: “You have transmigrated into the novel ‘The Heiress Returns for Revenge.’ You are Shen Hao, the villain. Your fate: betray the female lead, steal her company, die in jail at the male lead’s hands. Current timeline: three days after Gu Qingyan took you as her companion.” In the original story, Shen Hao’s inferiority complex over “eating soft rice” turns into greed and paranoia. He schemes. He backstabs. He loses everything. Lin Chen, who literally worked himself to death, looks at the silk sheets, the breakfast being prepared by staff, and the utter absence of a 9-to-9 grind. Then he looks at the villain’s script. He deletes it. No scheming. No stolen companies. No jail cell finale. Lin Chen embraces the salted fish era with the fervor of a man who has seen the other side of burnout. He makes Gu Qingyan’s tea. He learns her schedule better than her assistant. He naps in sunbeams. When anyone asks if he feels ashamed living off a woman, he answers honestly: “Shame is for people who haven’t pulled three all-nighters debugging kernel panic.” Gu Qingyan, the cold, sharp-witted heiress, waits for the betrayal her instincts warned her about. But her “boy toy” has no interest in her company’s shares. He’s too busy optimizing her home network and writing little scripts to block spam calls on her phone. The male lead—destined to become her avenging husband—hasn’t even arrived on scene yet. But when he does, he’ll find a villain who refuses to be a villain, a heiress who’s starting to smile, and a love story rewriting itself one bowl of warm soup at a time. The soft rice is warm. The salted fish is unbothered. And Lin Chen is finally getting some sleep.

Evermount: I Was Betrayed By My Guild, So I Restarted The Game

For fifteen years, Rio dominated the world’s most popular VR game, Evermount. Known across the servers as the Silver War Goddess, she reached Level 243, a height no other female player had ever achieved. Raids, world bosses, hidden dungeons—Rio conquered them all as one of the pillars of the legendary guild Royal Knights. But legends don’t always fall in battle. After years of loyalty, Rio is suddenly betrayed and expelled from her own guild, all because the guild leader’s jealous fiancée couldn’t stand her fame. Stripped of everything she built for over a decade, Rio’s career as the top player ends in humiliation. Drunk, angry, and lost, she wanders home that night—only to be chased down by an annoying fan named Ryota who claims she dropped her wallet. Before she can get rid of him, a devastating earthquake collapses the bridge beneath them, sending both of them plunging into the freezing river below. Just before death claims her, a strange message appears before Rio’s eyes. “Would you like to start over?” When she wakes up, Rio finds herself fifteen years in the past, back in her high school days—one week before Evermount is even released. With all her memories of the future intact, Rio now has the chance to reclaim everything she lost and rise to the top once again. But there’s one problem. The same annoying boy who followed her that night—Ryota—has somehow been dragged back in time with her. Now the former top player must start from level one again… while dealing with a stubborn tag-along who might ruin everything. This time, Rio won’t just play the game. She’ll rewrite its entire history.

The Unwanted Prince of Prussia

Content Notice!!!! This is an alternate-history work featuring reincarnation and supernatural elements. It deals extensively with geopolitics, warfare, religion, ethnicity, imperial power, and morally complex decisions. The narrative portrays real-world inspired historical tensions and uncomfortable subjects without simplification. It is intended for mature readers interested in political strategy, historical speculation, and philosophical conflict. Not recommended for those seeking light entertainment. Although at the beginning there will be comedy, and even slight Romance. And there will be Family Building. --- Reborn as the Iron Prince In his first life, Zhang Ge was no hero. A former child performer turned engineer and logistics analyst, he understood war not as glory—but as systems, supply chains, and men dying because someone miscalculated fuel. Then he died. When he opens his eyes again, he is no longer in the 21st century. He awakens in imperial Germany — inside the body of Prince Oskar of Prussia, fifth son of Kaiser Wilhelm II. The year is 1904. Europe stands balanced on a knife’s edge. The Great War is ten years away. And this time… he remembers everything. Armed with knowledge of future catastrophes — trench warfare, naval blockades, industrial slaughter — Oskar refuses to become another ornamental royal. Instead, he begins reshaping the empire from within: Modernizing industry before rivals awaken. Reforming logistics before generals understand their weakness. Building dreadnoughts that rival Britain’s fleet. Forging elite forces that fight with tomorrow’s doctrine. Investing in technology decades ahead of its time. But power attracts enemies. Within the palace, jealous princes whisper. Within the army, old men resist reform. Across Europe, empires grow uneasy at Germany’s sudden acceleration. And in the shadows, forces that do not fly flags begin to move. Oskar does not dream of conquest. He dreams of survival. Yet the stronger he makes Germany, the closer the world drifts toward the very war he is trying to prevent. Can one reincarnated strategist alter the course of history — or will he simply forge a stronger empire for an even greater storm? --- Disclaimer This work is a speculative alternate-history fiction in which a modern man is reborn as Prince Oskar of Prussia and attempts to reshape early 20th-century Europe. While inspired by real historical figures and events, all characterizations, timelines, and outcomes are fictional and should not be interpreted as accurate representations of historical reality.

The Side Character’s Harem Route

(All Chapters are on an average of 2000 words with many being around 2500 words) Kamishiro Renji has always been the ideal supporting character — rich, handsome, academically perfect, and unfailingly reliable. In the popular galgame Love Bloom Academy, he is the tragic best friend who funds group trips, offers a shoulder to cry on, and politely steps aside so the dense protagonist can claim every heroine. Then one morning, everything changed. Renji awakened with the full memories of his previous life: a lonely, impoverished orphan who survived on dead-end jobs and escapism through galgames. Suddenly, the luxurious mansion, the loving family, and the flawless identity he possessed feel like an impossible second chance. For the first time, he realized he doesn’t have to follow the script anymore. No longer content to play the selfless wingman, Renji decided to live for himself. But breaking free from the role he was “written” to play isn’t easy. The world still expects him to be the perfect support who never takes center stage. And the dense protagonist, Hoshino Takumi, remains obliviously at the center of everything. In a story that was never meant to be about him, Renji is determined to write his own ending — one where he finally gets to enjoy the life, the family, and the girls he was always meant to watch from the sidelines. A slow-burn harem story about choosing yourself, cherishing what you have, and gently rewriting the script while also discovering that this world is much more than what Renji had previously estimated. (Just because it has the SMUT tag, doesn't mean it will have only or majority of smut chapters. Yes, there will be a very high number of that, but normal chapters will also take quite a portion to keep the story running. So, it will be a blend of both)
