[Warning, this Story HAS R-18 stuff] Leon is a lower-class noble who lost the war of succession to his family's throne, and ended up on the street. Trying to make a living, he decided to become an adventurer, yet, his system only shows one skill. [Sultan's Harem]

"This is a world-first story. The history is the story. Stay with it." The world has ended before. Not in myth. Not in metaphor. It ended completely — gods unmade reality reaching for something they were never meant to hold, and existence corrected itself the only way it knows how. It took fifty thousand years to forget. Another hundred thousand to rebuild. It is about to happen again. This is not one story. It is many — stitched together across millennia, told through the eyes of those who lived inside a world that carries its own wounds forward. A nameless being waking in a summoning circle, learning what it means to exist. A woman who hesitated when she should have fought, and traded a year of her life for knowledge that is quietly unmaking her. A girl in an apothecary being handed a promise she doesn't yet understand. They do not know each other. Not exactly. But the world remembers. It always remembers. Stay long enough and you will see how the threads connect — how every choice echoes, how every name given in love becomes a weight carried forward, how the pattern emerging beneath the history is not a mystery to be solved but a wound that never fully closed. Knowledge is the weapon. History is the scar. And somewhere in the silence between chapters — You will realize you already care.

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 beginning of the apocalypse brought chaos and disaster to humanity. It tore away the mask of society and revealed the cruelty hiding beneath. Ivy Ravencroft experienced it all firsthand. Her family was unfair and cruel, and they abused her so badly that she went blind. Her lover died trying to protect her, and she spent the next five years struggling to survive, until she finally died in the apocalypse. But then, Ivy woke up again, reborn in the first year of the apocalypse. At first, she felt hopeless. If only she had returned to a time before the apocalypse, she could have gathered food, weapons, and supplies to survive better. Still, she was grateful for one thing: she had kept her special ability, the power to create safe zones. This time, Ivy made a promise. She would protect her lover, find her real family, and take revenge on everyone who had hurt her. .................................. "Huh? Why is there a bento box lying here?" Ivy asked, confused. "What bento? Are you trying to trick me again?" Silas asked, sadness in his eyes. "This one!" Ivy said, holding up the packaged meal and waving it at him. "What the... where did that come from?" Silas stared at it in shock. Ivy’s eyes widened. She realized something, only she could see these items, and when she picked them up, they became real. "Can… I buy it from you?" Silas asked, unsure. "Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay. Tell me how many gold bars you want." Ivy smiled and teased, "I don't want gold bars; they are way too cheap. I want one kiss." Silas: Blushing hard. His subordinates: "..." This wave of dog food was too unexpected! ....................................................... With the supplies, picking a superpower and a safe zone superpower, Ivy built her own residential area. She gained Kindness Energy and multiplied supplies with the help of Temporal Storage. While other bases struggled to make a simple house, she used her golden finger to make luxurious buildings and rent them out, becoming the big shot in the apocalypse.

"Immortality? That can be lonely. And in the end, everyone will die. It doesn’t matter what you do to escape it—sooner or later, all shall taste death. It is already written; it’s only a matter of when and how. But glory… glory is the answer. Glory will outlive flesh and bones. Glory is what we should strive for, not immortality." ~~~~ Robin Burton was a young man who grew up with everything anyone could ever hope for: immense talent in cultivation, a sharp mind, and a wealthy family that would stop at nothing to protect and nurture him. He had everything—except the will to make use of it. "Why should I walk the same path as my ancestors? Why must I seek strength just to defeat one rival or compete with another? That is not what I was born for!" --- “…Heh\~” Robin let out a long sigh. “Pursuing power was never my goal. I left my family and secluded myself to escape those pointless struggles for authority. I wanted to explore the universe, and to explore myself first… yet time and again, I was dragged into devastating wars. I wanted to benefit people with my knowledge and immortalize my name, yet worlds fell and hundreds of billions died because of me. Ironic, hah?”

So... after dying, I was expecting the usual. White light, reincarnation, maybe a reincarnated checklist. Instead, I got Yu-Gi-Oh. Cool, right? I thought I’d end up in the human world, duel a bit, maybe avoid eye contact with Yugi and Co. so I don’t get sucked into saving the world. Yeah—fate looked at that plan and said: “Nah.” I woke up in the Monster World. You know, where the actual Blue-Eyes, Dark Magician, and way-too-many dragon waifus live? That place. And surprise! Apparently, I am one of them. They call me Albion, the White Dragon King. I’ve got a throne, wings, and a fan club that breathes fire. Also, a human form for when I feel like slumming it with mortals. In the human world, I go by Thomas. I duel with two decks: one based on my own lore (very meta), and one full of adorable, overly affectionate dragon maids. Yes, those DragonMaids. Yes, people stare. Yes, some think I’m a perv. And yes, they have no idea they just insulted an entire race of proud, dangerous magical women who live in another dimension and regularly fight wars. There are seven great Nations in the Monster World, each built around powerful decks and factions. Mine… isn’t taken seriously. Apparently, being a dragon monarchy with an army of maids and a slightly chaotic reputation doesn’t scream “superpower.” Yet. Meanwhile, back in the human world, people are starting to notice something’s off. Yugi’s been giving me suspicious looks. The Pharaoh’s spirit is whispering warnings. And I'm trying really hard not to accidentally reveal that my human body is basically a magical avatar I summon like I’m logging into an MMO. But hey, at least I’ve got my DragonMaids. They call me “Your Majesty,” bring me tea, and cuddle me on my throne. What could go wrong? …Oh right. Everything. Because when you’re the King of Dragons, and your card belongs to a certain main character’s deck… Staying out of the plot is no longer an option. ------ MC: Thomas/Albion Ship: Thomas/Albion X Harem Race: Dragon Deck: DragonMaid and Albaz

After dying while playing her favorite game, Barbarian Conquest, she reincarnated as a female warrior of the Red Fang Tribe — one of the weakest and most despised factions in the entire world. For a brief, blissful moment, she thought she had received the ultimate second chance. Then reality hit. The Red Fang Tribe was nothing more than cannon fodder, destined to be slaughtered by players during the tutorial stage of the game. With only a few short years until the brutal War of the Plains begins, she must rise fast enough to defy fate — or watch her entire clan be wiped out once again. Thankfully, she awakens the legendary War Goddess System. Her first quest is simple: [Hunt an F-Rank Spirit Beast: 1/1] Complete! +10 Strength Skill Acquired: War Spirit Physique (C-Rank) But something was wrong. The quest refused to end. Instead, it keeps triggering over and over, fusing and evolving her physique with every completion. What should have been a minor reward spirals into something monstrous: [Great War Spirit Physique (B-Rank)] [Great War Demigoddess Physique (A-Rank)] [Great War Goddess Physique (S-Rank)] [Supreme War Goddess Physique (SSS-Rank)] [Six-Armed Demonic War Goddess Asura Physique (X-Rank)] By the time she turns fifteen, the once-weak Red Fang Tribe has become an unstoppable force. Legendary barbarian clans that once looked down on them now kneel in the dirt, their proud chiefs trembling as they beg for mercy. “Please spare us, oh Tyrannical War Goddess!” “We surrender everything — our lands, our treasures, our loyalty!” With six divine arms of shadowed divinity rising behind her and an aura that makes the heavens tremble, she stands unchallenged across the Green Plains. The glitch that was supposed to be a bug became her greatest blessing. Now, the Grand Labyrinth, the Tower of Gods, the Dimensional Expanse, the Nine Heavenly Realms, and even the distant Cosmic Sea will soon tremble at her name. She was once just a player. Now, she has become the final boss of this world. Long Chapters (3000~4000 words at the beginning) then it goes down to 2000 to 1500 words later on.

From Pig-Faced Trash to the Most Wanted Mate in Beastworld! * * * Aurora died as she lived - feared, skilled, and alone. As a world-class assassin of the 21st century, she expected death to be the end. Instead, she awakens in a primitive Beastworld in the body of a girl who shares her name but nothing else. The original owner of her body was not only overweight, despised, and carried filthy reputation, but she's so hated that even children throw stones at her. And worst of all? She wakes up straddling a bound, enraged, devastatingly handsome Alpha wolf she apparently drugged in an attempt to force him into mating. Aurora immediately realizes she has transmigrated into a complete disaster. With death looming, a ruined name, and a body that can barely run - she has no time to panic. Especially not when a mysterious System binds itself to her and issues a cold command - [Save the Beastworld from extinction… or be erased.] In a world where females are rare, weak, and dying out, and powerful beastmen rule with instinct and dominance, Aurora must survive by relying on the only things she still owns - her deadly skills and forgotten medical knowledge. But survival isn't simple. Because the wolf she tried to "assault" becomes her first unavoidable connection. And he is only the beginning. A tyrannical Snow Lion Beast King with piercing eyes that see too much. A cold and ancient Dragon King who has outlived his entire bloodline. A cunning Nine-Tailed Fox Lord who plays with hearts like games. A blazing Divine Phoenix whose pride rivals the heavens. Each one powerful. Each one dangerous. Each one drawn to her in ways they don't understand. Some want her dead. Some want to claim her. Some can't decide which desire burns stronger. Caught between survival, secrets, and a system that manipulates her at every turn, Aurora must rebuild herself from nothing - changing not only her fate, but the future of the entire Beastworld. All while unintentionally capturing the hearts of the most powerful beastmen alive. Because this time, the "trash" female they all despised is the one who will make them kneel. --- **A reverse-harem fantasy romance filled with danger, humor, slow-burn love, and a heroine who refuses to be broken.**

Recently, a special correspondent conducted an exclusive interview with Pei Qian, President of Tengda Group. Tengda Group, now valued at hundreds of billions, operates across various sectors such as gaming, internet services, digital hardware, cultural media, and restaurants, significantly impacting numerous aspects of daily life. Pei Qian himself is widely regarded as the "World’s Best Boss," an unparalleled investment genius, and a brilliant game developer. He is known for his effortless leadership style and keen ability to precisely forecast industry trends. However, during the interview, Pei Qian expressed deep frustration: “I’m truly not some kind of business genius!” “My success is entirely due to luck!” “My initial goal was merely to lose fifty thousand yuan…” See? This is exactly how a genuine business genius maintains humility and modesty.

"To protect what remains." With those words, the Hollow Knight departed. There were no more Pantheons to ascend. No gods left unresolved. No further trials hidden within the endless architecture of Godhome. The long procession of contests had reached its natural conclusion, and the place itself possessed nothing more to offer. So the Shade Lord left. They did not depart enlightened. They departed thinking. But not immediately toward Hallownest. There was no longing drawing Them home, no duty compelling Their return. They wandered, and in wandering measured what followed the end of purpose. Only much later did They return. But not because Hallownest could still be saved. That possibility had long since passed beyond even consideration. They returned because another truth had revealed itself: Hallownest is beyond salvation. But it may still suffer violation. ——— For the image cover, credits to "Descent" on Instagram. Image edited — by me.
