From overworked corporate slave to… the fat niece of a future villain? At twenty-three, my life ended in the most ironic way possible—drowning in a lake while reading an online romance novel. When I woke up, I wasn’t just alive—I was inside that very novel. And worse, not as the princess or the healer or even the tragic maid. No. I woke up as Seraphine Agro, the silver-haired, chubby niece of the story’s main villain, Duke Tayler Agro—the man who would one day summon a famine, experiment on peasants, and get publicly executed. Awesome. Now I’m stuck in a half-collapsed mansion with stale soup, a broken “Duke” father who’s too kind for his own good, and an entire kingdom collapsing into plague and hunger. And to make things worse, the hero of the story—the dangerously handsome knight Sir Alex Canva—is on his way to inspect our lands. I know the plot. I know who dies. And I’m not planning to go quietly. Armed with sarcasm, stubbornness, and a questionable diet, I’m rewriting destiny—one disastrous choice at a time.

Magic was never meant to be forced. In a world where spells rely on guesswork and power decides worth, magic has become unstable—and those without talent are left behind. Vedant Hale returns carrying a forbidden understanding: magic is not instinct, but language. As ancient storms stir around a lost continent and forgotten knowledge begins to surface, Vedant quietly rewrites magic itself—through structure, meaning, and precision. But when power can be measured, and spells stop failing by chance… Who decides who is allowed to wield it? Arcane Script is a mystery-laced fantasy about hidden knowledge, silent revolutions, and the dangerous truth behind how magic truly works. P.S. The book cover is AI-generated, and the title Arcane Script was suggested by my Patreon member Draco R.

As a boy, Jim grew up on some colony planet with was full of junk and highly polluted environment. He was extremely brilliant but lacked any opportunities for success. No matter how hard he tried, there was no open door for him. Eventually, he turned to a life of crime and became a villain. That's when he discovers a secret about the corporation that owns his home planet. Time passes, he is on the run, and he finds himself on another planet, a harvest planet. The people here are still in the iron age, civilizations still forming. That's when he hatches the plan to become king, accumulate power, and come back to haunt the overlords that ruined his home. Unfortunately, he discovers he'd just wandered into a competition of the rich and the powerful, and he is nothing more than a pawn in their game, and so is the entire planet. He must learn to play the game to come out on top, and maybe just free his people from this deadly game. Will he be able to do it, let's find out.

Summoner Guild Online was supposed to be the launch of the century. For millions of players, it was the ultimate escape. A world of endless adventure, legendary loot, and guild wars that would make history. But for Kai Grimer, it became a death trap. He doesn't spawn in the starting village like the others. Instead, he wakes up in the suffocating darkness of the Tutorial Dungeon—not as a player, but as the final boss. An NPC designed to be slaughtered by wave after wave of newbies farming their first XP. The logout button doesn't work. The system won't respond. And if he dies here, there's no respawn. Desperate and hunted, Kai activates his only skill, [Grand Summon]. It's a gamble: sacrifice XP to pull a random servant from across dimensions. He's hoping for something useful. A knight. Maybe a mage. Even a halfway-decent slime would do. What he gets instead is Lyra, the Abyssal Empress. [Rating: 9999 Class: World-Ending Calamity Danger Level: Apocalypse-Tier.] She's devastatingly beautiful. Unimaginably powerful. And completely, utterly insane. She despises humanity, mocks the system, and has enough power to crack continents in half. But thanks to the summoning contract, she has one unbreakable rule: absolute obedience to Kai. And somehow, that obedience has twisted into something far more dangerous—obsession. But Kai isn't running anymore. With each wave of players he defeats, he earns XP. With each summon he pulls, his army grows. Knights. Demons. Spirits. Beasts. And perhaps... more dangerous beauties who don't appreciate Lyra's self-proclaimed monopoly on their Master's attention. [You have defeated 47 Players] [New Summon Available] Trapped between overpowered summons fighting for his favor, guilds hunting his legend, and a game system that's starting to break under his existence, Kai has one goal: He won't just survive Summoner Guild Online. He'll conquer it. And if a few world-ending beauties want to fight over him along the way? Well, that's just part of being the strongest summoner.

Reincarnated into that very Novel he was thrashing at. Died a pathetic death but, gained a dreamy life. Born as the Crown Prince in a world of magic and aura, he expected hardship, conflict, and chaos. Instead, he stepped into order and peace. But he didn't want to live an idle life, so went onto make his own crazy adventures. The romance novel he once read, now unfolds far from his existence, irrelevant to his path. From the moment he begins to grow, his genius becomes impossible to ignore— talent so overwhelming that the entire continent comes to revere him. This is not the story for survival. No desperate climb toward greatness. This is the story of a life reborn exactly as it was meant to be. Perfect Reincarnation

Some things about the MC: - MC is selfish, schemes when he can, but he also contradicts what he says sometimes, as long as the situation favours him. - He is human and not a saint; he can be unfair sometimes. - He is more ruthless and unforgiving than he believes he is. - He won't waver from his end goal ever. - In the start, he will use his cheat inefficiently, but over time, he will grow in that sense.

An ordinary young man lives his life day to day, without going through any unusual experiences. He hasn't achieved anything remarkable. He has a job like any other, has a couple of close friends, but being in a similar situation, they can't go out and enjoy themselves, and he hasn't had a girlfriend. However, his life suddenly changes. He falls ill. He doesn't know if his destiny was to spend the rest of his life in a hospital, or if he would be able to recover from this illness and return to his tortuous life. But karma changes his destiny and reincarnates him in a new world, or rather, an alternate Earth. In this new world, he must start from scratch, and not just rhetorically. He must lead the village hidden in the mountains where he was reborn through a complete transformation if he wants to survive the challenges he will face in the future. Not only must he face small local villages, but he must also grow up between two great empires, only to be able to face a power greater than those lands have ever seen. The Arrival of the Colonizers. . ---- . This is a novel where the protagonist is reborn in one of the pre-Hispanic peoples, in present-day Colombia, a few years before the arrival of the Conquistadors of America. He must grow his people from a much less developed one, compared to the European powers of the time, to a kingdom capable of defending its territory from the many encounters with ships from the Atlantic. The initial development will be quite rapid and will be based on the protagonist as the leader of a new kingdom, bringing basic technologies from the future. The protagonist will have a harem, which is part of the customs of this people. In case you want to look it up, the people are called "Muiscas." I suggest using the Spanish language on Wikipedia and then translating it into your language with the translator available on your device, as the information is much more complete in this language. Also, I would like to clarify, as a curious fact, that it is thanks to this people that the legend of "El Dorado" is known. . ---- .
