He was in his early twenties when the world decided to end for him. A computing prodigy, educated at MIT, someone who understood systems, patterns, and limits better than most. In his previous life, power didn’t come from fists, but from the mind — lines of code capable of shaping digital realities. Then he died. And was born again. Reincarnated into the DC Universe as a helpless baby, he grew up in a world where gods walk among humans, where vigilantes defy the impossible, and where power is rarely fair — or free. While others trusted destiny, chance, or inherited gifts, he trusted only one thing: process. Memory intact. Intellect intact. Ambition intact. From an early age, he understood a simple and cruel truth: in that world, those who do not grow are crushed. And so, far from the spotlight of the League, he began to build something forbidden — his own Artificial Intelligence, created not to save the world, but to optimize it. To make him stronger. More efficient. More prepared to survive among monsters, aliens, and symbols. While heroes were born from tragedy, he forged himself in silence. While villains sought external power, he engineered it from within. This is not the story of a chosen one. It is the story of someone who decided to become inevitable. Between code and chaos, science and superhumans, begins the rise of a man who does not believe in miracles — only in evolution. This story was inspired by a fanfiction I read years ago — a work I deeply admire and still reread to this day. Unfortunately, that story was never continued.

--- Han Yan thought his life couldn’t get any more embarrassing after dying from choking on cheap instant noodles. But when he opened his eyes again, he finds himself trapped in his sister’s favorite BL novel as the Han family’s cannon-fodder husband, fated to die miserably in the mountains. He knows the plot. He knows the ending. And he knows he’s meant to suffer while the Male Lead basks in happiness. The problem? The fragile, tearful husband beside him is far too pitiful, and Han Yan here supposedly a “straight man” can’t stop feeling protective. Armed only with his knowledge of the story, he declares: “Forget the plot. Forget the Male Lead. I’ll survive and keep my delicate husband safe!” But survival isn’t simple when your scheming stepmother has her own plans, greedy relatives circle like vultures, and the story’s protagonist could appear at any moment. Just when Han Yan thinks life in this strange world can’t get any stranger, a mysterious cat suddenly appears, a very massive plot hole that he could only scold the silly author. Its presence pulls Han Yan and Li Xin into events far beyond their control. This story mixes lighthearted humor, warmth, and slow-burn affection with light cultivation, danger, and emotional healing as Han Yan struggles between fate and his growing feelings for Li Xin the husband he was never meant to know. ---

Yue Xuexia is just an ordinary salted fish that rarely lives in her house, but suddenly one day she woke up, received a sign-in system, and thought she was dreaming. The sign-in system rewarded her with multiple things, including houses, money, cars, and talent scrolls, which led her to the life of the richest lady in the world. She could sign in once a day. One morning, with her eyes groggily and blurry, Xuexia was welcomed by a holographic screen only she could see. Yes, like the ones in the novels and manga. Ding! Xuexia waves her hand in the empty air and mumbles, "Noisy, I told you to turn off the damn alarm, whoever owns it!" When a robotic voice lingered near her ears saying, Signed in successfully. Congratulations to the host, and you've received [1 Million RMB in cash!] Xuexia, who is currently in need of great money, was in disbelief as she looked at the words one million and laughed. "Heh~ even in my dream, I was wishing to receive free money. What nonsense, let's go back to sleep. Yue Xuexia was about to close her eyes back to sleep when the old touch screen phone near her pillow vibrates. Bzzt~ Bzzzzzt~ "Urg~ who the hell is calling now?" complained Yue Xuexia in her half-asleep state. She picked up the phone only to see a message notification saying the following words: [Your bank card account ending with 5567 had received a deposit transfer from XXXX at 6:45 am. You had received a 1 million deposit and your current saving balance is 1,003,000.00 RMB (Autumn Field landbank)] Yue Xuaxia mumbled in disbelief and said, "Fucking hell! This is awesome." Who doesn’t like free things?~' This lady wants it too!!!

Fiercely committed to a carefree single life, Aragaki Miyahito proudly swears off romance, content with writing songs and novels just to get by. But when love unexpectedly crosses his path, his unshakable vow is about to be put to the test.

Jiang Wei was an exhausted New York product tech until a black-haired woman touched him in an alley and turned him into an emperor penguin. [Penguin Evolution System initialized.] Now he earns Evolution Points by surviving what his human body never could. Pressure Heart. Countercurrent Sense. Abyssal routes. Rookery bonds. Every upgrade makes him stronger, stranger, and less certain that becoming human again is the right goal. Aylin, a princess from a world being eaten by Yokai, needs Jiang to cross worlds and break their hidden soul cores. She also failed three candidates before him, and one may still be alive. To save two worlds, Jiang must dive through haunted oceans, build a colony, survive warped history, and evolve from one furious penguin into something even gods cannot classify. The system calls him incomplete. The rookery calls him stranger. Soon, entire worlds will call him Emperor.

Leon Hart woke up in Orario with three magic slots, seven skills, and stats so bad they’d make a goblin laugh. Six months of scraping by as a Level 1 nobody under Demeter’s protection taught him one thing: in a city where gods play politics and Evilus lurks in every shadow, raw power means nothing without people watching your back. When his cheat system drops a Familia Invitation, a black letter that summons warriors from other worlds, everything changes. A holy maiden saved from the stake. A silver-haired healer who shouldn’t exist. A sword saint with no kingdom left to serve. One by one, Leon builds something Orario has never seen before: a familia of outsiders, hidden beneath Demeter’s banner, growing in the shadows while the city’s power brokers look the other way. The Dungeon doesn’t care where you came from. It only cares whether you’re strong enough to survive what comes next.

Ryoma Takeda was once a rising star in the ring, an Interhigh champion, a golden boy with fists of promise. But one bitter loss on his pro debut shattered his confidence.

[System Initialized: Vision Grid Active] “Your eyes see the truth beneath motion. Use it well.” Armed with the Vision Grid System, a combat-assist module that turns his visual perception into tactical mastery, Ryoma now has a second chance. To fix his mistakes. To chase the career he lost. To protect the mother he failed. To fulfill the hopes of those who refused to give up on him. And to finally become the man they always believed he could be. But boxing isn't just a sport. It's war of bodies, of minds, of hearts. And Ryoma Takeda is done losing.

Nineteen years old, and finally getting into university.

But things turn bad immediately upon his arrival into this new world; he's kidnapped. Will he survive his first twenty-four hours... and who's that girl he's somehow bonded with?

The annihilation of the Uchiha clan is a statistical impossibility. Let the record show that I, Uchiha Tokichi—a man of impeccable honor and irreproachable character—will gladly concede defeat the day Itachi Uchiha locates the mythical Fountain of Rebirth. Until then, we cast aside the tragic martyrdom of the past. There is no need for somber whispers of "Mikoto, do not look back." Instead, Mikoto turns to me, a blush warming her cheeks, to pose a delightfully absurd tactical query: "Do you think it would appear gaudy if I mounted a Railgun onto my Susanoo?" The late Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, once astutely observed the shifting dynamics of our lineage: "While other Uchiha awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan in their eyes, Fugaku managed to awaken his entirely in his mouth." It is a sentiment echoed with profound sincerity by Shinnosuke Nohara, brother to the late Rin, who openly declares, "The leader I revere above all others is Lord Fugaku. It was he who imparted the ultimate universal truth upon me: what goes around, comes around." Through this chaotic subversion of destiny, Fugaku—the younger brother once fated for an untimely demise—instead inherited a bizarrely prestigious tapestry of grand titles: The Ninja World’s Demonic Eye Konoha’s Supreme Hokage The True Uchiha Dance King The Divine Architect of Birth Control Driven by aggressive, state-sponsored reproductive incentives, Fugaku single-handedly engineered a demographic explosion within the clan. The Uchiha compounds are now overrun by a hyper-prolific new generation. Even the toddlers in the local kindergarten unlock their Sharingan with casual ease, their voices echoing through the streets in unison: "No one understands the true essence of the Will of Fire better than us."

Ryusuke Higo is just an ordinary boy. Not too handsome, but not too ugly. Not too smart, yet not too stupid. He is what people say is the perfect NPC. However, he has a deep secret that nobody knows. He can see the future. Not too far, of course. Just three to five seconds to the future. It looks like a useless ability, right? Cannot be used to predict anything that can be changed, and cannot be used to help him make money or improve his life. Even Higo himself has thought that way for such a long time. However, one small accident on the football pitch changes everything. By then, he finally realizes the best way to utilize his clairvoyance. To become a goalkeeper! Will he be able to thrive further? Conquer Japan? And what about the world? Follow the story of Higo, the ordinary boy who yearns to become a legend, rising from a novice to become a legend!

After dying in the apocalypse, betrayed by her boyfriend and best friend, Roanna “Rory” Smith wakes up in an Interstellar Beast World—a place where females are scarce and paired with multiple beast mates. But the quality of her mates depends on her rank. After five years of diligent work across the stars, Rory is blessed with incredible luck: she matches with nine extraordinary beasts. There’s just one problem—these nine male beasts either want to dissolve the match, ignore her, or try to swindle her wealth. Fed up, Rory decides to break all the matches and wait for a better batch. Then, suddenly, her mates come groveling for her attention, offering her all the power, riches, and status they possess. What kind of beastly magic is this?!

All Raiden wanted to do was to farm quietly. But his sheep kept fighting!! After dying in his old world and waking up in the body of a freshly graduated nobody in a world full of monsters that are bigger than the tallest skyscrapers, Raiden made a quick, sensible decision: avoiding danger at all costs. Forget becoming a battle master and monster-infested frontiers, he just wanted to take his little sister Sylvia and retire to their inherited farm to raise sheep. Peaceful, profitable, and most importantly, safe. His master plan? Buy the cheapest Woolie in the market, shear its wool, and live off the profits. Simple, right? What could go wrong? As Murphy's Law states, anything that can go wrong will go wrong. The moment he brought his adorable sheep, his cheat system activated, letting him appraise and improve the potential of anything he touched. And everything started going downhill from there. A few enhancements later, his Woolie is producing luxury wool that has fashion designers losing their minds. And unlike other sheep, this one loved to train and battle, so much that it loses half of it before the sell period. "It's fine," Raiden assured himself. "It's just a sheep. A very profitable sheep." Then it evolves. And keeps evolving. And suddenly his "harmless farm animal" is creating thunderclouds that can destroy a whole continent. He thought the problem was only with his sheep; the rest of the Terra beasts would be peaceful. The real problem, though? Every Terran he rescues thinks the same way: "Master is so kind! He doesn't force us to battle! We must train extra hard to protect him!" Now, all his supposedly peaceful, peace-loving Terrans are challenging wild Terrans to duels while he chucks pills to control his Blood Pressure in the background. His genius little sister is landing scholarships left and right, and the Continental Alliance won't stop sending him tournament invitations he desperately wants to decline. All Raiden wants is to farm in peace, pay off his debts, and maybe—just maybe survive long enough to see Sylvia graduate. Is that really too much to ask? Apparently, yes.

And when he reincarnated, instead of becoming the overpowered level 100 character with broken stats, legendary gear, and a ridiculous number of spells… He woke up at Necromancer level 1 with a single spell that can’t even properly revive the dead. Great. But, somehow, luck was on his side. The very first thing he did was stumble across the corpse of an SSS-Rank Holy Knight inside a dungeon, and out of pure desperation, he used his one half-functional spell on her. That’s when things took a turn. He unlocked a new ability that lets him tamper with people’s consciousness… so yeah, he straight-up brainwashed her. Now he’s got the strongest warrior on the continent following him around like he’s the center of her universe. Meanwhile, Mark’s stuck in the middle of it all, wondering when exactly his life turned into this mess.
