Reborn as Drogon, the mighty black dragon in Game of Thrones, the protagonist soon discovers an unexpected problem— Daenerys can hear his inner thoughts. Drogon: “These two silly dragons really need proper training. If they keep dying so easily, it’ll be a disgrace to our entire dragon race.” Daenerys: “Jhiqi, don’t feed Rhaegal and Viserion separately anymore. Let them fight for their food…just don’t let them kill each other!” Tyrion Lannister: “Oh my dragon queen…” Drogon: “The Imp is perfectly capable of being the Hand of the King.” Daenerys: “Tyrion, I appoint you as my Hand.” Tyrion: “But… I’m a Lannister.” Daenerys: “I believe in you.” Drogon: “The Queen’s been a bit temperamental these past two days… is it that time of the month?” With Drogon’s brutally honest commentary constantly leaking into Daenerys’s ears, the Mother of Dragons begins to reshape her destiny—dragons, politics, and unexpected comedy all included.

"You trash!" I've been hearing that since I was born. Grandson of a hero, but a failure. My parents raised me until I was fifteen because I was the bare minimum, before I was kicked out... Yeah. My own family despises me. What's so wrong with being normal? Am I wrong for being born this way? I'm smarter than them, and yet I'm despised for having no power whatsoever. ... Of course, I'll make them regret it. With the hero's legacy, I become the villain. ------- Genre: #18+. #Smut. #Dark. #Harem. #Fast-growing. #Netori. #No NTR. #No Yuri. #Incest? #Revenge.

A world of magic. A "mage" born without it. And an outrageous f*cking crew. In the Valley Kingdom, where steampunk meets futurism and powerful magic means status, a Guild named the Black Wolves stand wildly apart. Their acting captain, Greed, carries neither magic nor nobility, only a title he never wanted and a forgotten past. Though he has no magic, he has another power that defies it—along with a crew as unhinged as they are loyal and who all have their own insanely broken abilities: A Ghost-mage whose eyepatch hides more than it covers. A powerhouse who hits like a Behemoth and naps for sport. A vice captain more promising than most high-ranking mages, but only wants to spend the days cooking. A horned lunatic with a superiority complex and an obsession for her acting captain. A cyborg. A wolfdog the size of a lyconbear. And others off on missions or prolonged duties—each with their own unique quirks. The Black Wolves only have a single goal: to live a life as meaningless and carefree as possible. But when a conspiracy threatens to swallow the Valley—and pins the crime on them—they become fugitives in the very Kingdom they called home. As they fight to clear their names and face an enemy that seeks to destroy everything—the Black Wolves, ironically, become the Valley’s last line of defense. And everyone's last hope. Expect: - Black Clover meets Final Fantasy meets JJK meets Vox Machina - NOT isekai, transmigration, evolution, system, or cultivation. Go look for that elsewhere - OP MC from the start with no magic [NOT ANTI-MAGIC], progressively gets even more OP - Harem relationships in the beginning, moderate fanservice and some sex scenes (hate me), and strong romance subplot towards the end with only one girl - Classic slow-paced story with character development, backstories, perspectives from multiple characters, stats and ability descriptions, intricate plot, worldbuilding, and of course tons of fighting - A long, ongoing story Written and conjured by J.N.

Ten thousand years ago, the world of Gaia was shattered. To stop the First King, a great and powerful man, the world's ultimate power—the Heart of Ozyra—was broken into Elemental Shards. These Shards now power the isolated, vastly different realms of the surface: the gothic knight-fortresses of Aethelgard, the streets of Synthetica, the floating sky-islands of Aeris, the illusion-filled deserts of the Mirage and Icy Glacis.

In my past life, I built an empire to save humanity. In this life, I’ll build one to rule the ruins.” Kaelen Voss was the "Architect of Order," a genius CEO who used his billions and his Level 9 'Technomancy' to build the last sanctuary for mankind after the Great Collapse. But on the eve of the New Era, he was betrayed. His vice-president poisoned his marrow, his fiancée sold his blueprints to the rival Mafia syndicates, and he was left to be torn apart by mutated beasts in the Dead Zones. But death was just a system reboot. Kaelen wakes up ten years in the past—exactly 24 hours before the "Zero-Day" apocalypse begins. He is back in his high-rise office, his treacherous inner circle still smiling at his face, and his bank account still overflowing with "useless" fiat currency. This time, Kaelen won't be a savior. Armed with a decade of future knowledge, the hidden locations of "God-Tier" power cores, and a heart turned to ice, he begins his move. The CEO: He will liquidate his assets to buy up the world's most vital resources before money becomes paper. The Villain: He will crush the budding heroes of the future before they can even awaken. The Mafia God: He will unite the underworld to create a new world order where he is the sole judge, jury, and executioner. The apocalypse is coming. The superpowers are awakening. And Kaelen Voss is already at the finish line, waiting to slap the world in the face.

They say there is no place for mixed-race slaves in Joseon. So, he decided to become the real power behind the British Empire.

A particle physicist with an eidetic memory is reincarnated into a world where magic is real. Born into the Empire’s upper nobility, Ezra Blackfyre quickly learns that power isn’t earned by talent alone—it’s negotiated through bloodlines, oaths, and brutal politics. As his family is pulled into rising conflicts and assassination games, Ezra must grow stronger fast… without becoming a pawn. Armed with modern scientific knowledge and relentless curiosity, he approaches magic like physics—testing, refining, and weaponizing it. To survive, Ezra will build technology, forge new methods of combat, and reshape his domain from the ground up—while the Empire’s great houses close in around him. --- Finally Got around to rebooting this. I have fleshed out more chapters, for those who have come across this before, yes I didn't drop this. It just really took time to organize the magic system, the world building and characters. The chapters that have been read before are mostly relevant still but there will be arcs in between the previous time skip. For those who are new, this is going to be a slow burn kingdom building novel. Please leave feedback or any comments, they are much appreciated.

They called him the Shame of the Clan, but before that, Vale Athrimir was a prodigy, one destined to lead. That ended the moment he manifested the Forbidden Mark Order. Branded, abandoned, and cast into prison, Vale was stripped of everything he has. Three years later, he was thrown into the Borderlands, a wasteland where the forsaken are worked to death and forgotten, to fight monsters and waste away. But Vale did not break. He began with nothing. No name. No allies. No power base. No faction. And yet… he built. From prisoners, exiled lords, and the discarded, Vale forged order out of chaos. What started as a desperate struggle for survival became something far greater, a growing force bound by ambition, discipline, and ruthless vision. Resources were seized. Territories claimed. Enemies crushed or absorbed. In a ruined world where strength dictates rule, Vale wasn’t just surviving, he was laying the foundation of an empire. As the Forbidden Mark Order revealed its true potential and an Ancient Inheritance fell into his hands, his rise became unstoppable. Clans and Kingdoms that once cast him aside would soon face something far more dangerous than a disgraced heir. A ruler. He will build something that cannot be overthrown.

"My family banished me to the land of death without a single penny? Perfect. I will monopolize this continent's economy and make them beg at my feet." Dying from overwork at an office desk was pathetic enough. But waking up in the body of a foolish villainess who had just been stripped of her title and banished to Winterhaven—a frozen, barren northern wasteland—was an absolute insult. Stephanie's starting capital? A debt of minus 500 Gold Coins and the threat of freezing to death in two hours. Fortunately, she awakened the [Ultimate Tycoon System]. Unfortunately, the system demanded cold hard cash she didn't have. To survive the blizzard, Stephanie's CEO instincts took over. She descended into the castle's basement and "acquired" her greatest asset: Revista, the legitimate Crown Prince cursed to become a feral beast radiating lethal heat. With just a piece of hard, stale bread and a cold-blooded negotiation, Stephanie successfully tamed the murderous prince into her personal space heater, as well as an overly possessive "guard dog." Now, amidst the threats of snow monsters, ruthless loan sharks, and a supply blockade from her own biological father, Stephanie must build an industrial empire from absolute zero. Her ex-fiancé and the family who threw her away will soon learn one absolute rule: Never mess with a Capitalist Queen.

Edward a young adult who just finished university met with an accident and woke up as an orphan in London 1977 with an AI Chip?

“In an age where knowledge cuts deeper than knives, Victoria is about to learn far more than is safe for any soul to bear.” Victoria and Robert were torn from the gentle dullness of their ordinary century and cast into a realm governed by proto-concepts—those ancient, unblinking truths from which life, death, and divinity themselves are carved. Proclaimed “Heroes” by a world too desperate to question its own choices, they were commanded to rise in strength, confront a Demon Lord, and deliver salvation to a land that had never been theirs. Robert donned the mantle with the fervour of a man stepping into destiny. Victoria… hesitated. And in that hesitation, something old—older than scripture, older than light—turned its gaze toward her. She felt its attention like a draft through a locked room. In a moment poised between terror and terrible understanding, she accepted its offer: a contract sealed in silence, a year of her life exchanged for a thing that should never have been permitted to exist. Not in this world. Not in any. She did not yet grasp that, in straying from the Hero’s ordained path, she had not merely shifted her fate— she had begun to unwrite the very scaffolding of her humanity. Now Victoria walks like a phantom through a world that has marched on without her— one year behind the celebrated Hero, yet burdened with an insight so sharp it threatens to cut her free from mortality itself. She can now trespass upon knowledge forbidden to scholars, sorcerers, or even those who stand at the pinnacle of human mastery. She commits the kind of acts whispered only of beings who have stepped beyond the human threshold… and never returned. And in a world built on primordial, immovable truths, one truth endures: Knowledge is power. But power, when mishandled, becomes a curse that devours its bearer— quietly, inevitably, like rot beneath embroidered silk.

What if death were not the end… But the beginning of a transformation beyond imagination? After an absurd and preventable accident, a professor awakens to discover that he has lost his human body. He is no longer a man. He now exists as a sentient planet, condemned to drift through the void of space, bound by universal laws that not even a god can break. Isolated, unable to intervene directly, and unwilling to wait millennia for life to evolve on its own, he makes a forbidden decision. He creates the Genesis Records— a system designed to guide, strengthen, and accelerate the evolution of all life on his world. But power is never free. Fate, fortune, and deadly tribulations become the price of ascension. Every step forward demands sacrifice. Every mistake is paid for with death. As new races awaken under these merciless rules, he watches from the shadows. He calculates. He plans. He waits. Because in this world, even gods are bound by the laws they create. And evolution… Always demands a price.

A Fallout fanatic was killed by a horrible Eldritch Horror beyond imagination, only to wake up in the Fallout universe as a 17 year old version of his favorite in game character; the great and mighty Robert Edwin House the future Overlord of New Vegas and the savior of the Mojave. Witness the rise of a mega-genius turned corporate overlord who has access to all Fallout in-universe secrets and lore, as he navigates the Fallout world before the bombs dropped, a twisted political nightmare of a world that will ultimately lead to the near extinction of the human race. Where others would falter and cry, our boy, now as the great House will see to building a proper mega-corporation that will not only dominate in a dangerous pre-war era of the Fallout World, but thrive in the nuclear nightmare that is to come with all of the fun quirky nightmarish Fallout experience remembered by those who enjoyed Fallout 1 and 2, as well as everything leading up to events including the TV show and more.

In the shadows of Konoha, the Uchiha were never defeated by rebellion. They were erased by fear, secrets, and silence. Toyoma Uchiha is not a prodigy chasing power, nor a fool blinded by revenge. He carries knowledge of a future where his clan is destined to be sacrificed—not for justice, but for convenience. As conspiracies tighten and loyalties fracture, Toyoma chooses a different path. Not blind obedience. Not reckless defiance. But careful resistance. With a handful of elders who still remember what it means to protect family, and enemies who smile while sharpening their knives, the Uchiha stand at the edge of extinction. This time, the future will not unfold quietly. This is not the story of a massacre. It is the story of a clan that refused to disappear.

Lightweight system) (Slow-heating) Aegon travels to the world of A Song of Ice and Fire and becomes Aegon Targaryen, who shares the same name. Good news: He possesses the bloodline of the Valyrian Dragon King and can ride dragons. Bad news: I didn't transmigrate into Aegon the Conqueror who conquered the Seven Kingdoms, nor into any of the Targaryen kings in history, but into "Little Aegon"—yes, the one who got smashed against a wall by the Mountain and had his head split open. To make matters worse, the Targaryen dynasty had already fallen, and a usurper had ascended the throne in King's Landing. He could only drag his broken body and rely on the system to stay alive as he fled to the Narrow Sea. Aegon thought he was getting a tragic and heartbreaking script, but what happened? Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in at the Valyrian Ruins and received 1 chance to win a prize. Ding! Congratulations, host, you have drawn the Golden Legendary item and obtained King Ghidorah (juvenile form). Aegon stared in astonishment at the grotesque three-headed beast on the system screen: "Wait... is this art style right?!" When the shadow of a three-headed dragon, obscuring the sky, swept across King's Landing, when the chaotic Seven Kingdoms were reunited under the dragon's wings, and when usurpers and traitors were reduced to ashes in the flames, the maesters who wrote the Targaryen Chronicles bestowed upon him the title "Aegon the Avenger" after Aegon the Conqueror.

Smart Protagonist Strong Protagonist Ruthless Protagonist (Multiple women, multiple women, multiple women—I'll say it three times because it's important!) He traveled through Viserys and even gained Ghidorah's favor. Is this still Game of Thrones? No, I'm invincible, do as you please.

"Caged bird, who wishes to fly high, are you awake?" "Ugh… Where?" I mumbled, the words violently tearing from my throat as searing pain rippled through my veins. "Don't scream, little bird. You have no need for a voice now that I'm here." Once a proud young man, his past stripped away and his true name lost, Evernight awakens in a world where divine light hides an endless void of despair. In this twisted realm of power, monsters, and forgotten gods, survival demands sacrifice. Humanity is a weakness. Mercy is a death sentence. To rise in this hellscape, Evernight must abandon the man he once was and embrace the only two paths that remain. Order. Or Decay. Order or Decay follows the tale of Evernight, a Pseudo Deity who has been forced into an ongoing war between two deities fighting for supremacy. But as he travels further, he begins to realise it isn't so simple as one side is bad and the other good. Both are corrupted to the brink, and as he fights for the freedom of all angels under Order's Tyranny. A single thought begins to pollute his mind to destroy the infection before it infects everything good in this world of terror.
