In a World of Beast Tamers, I Awaken the Dead

Rifts shattered the world, unleashing monsters that drove humanity to the edge of extinction. Survival came only through awakened talents—and among them, Beast Talents rose above all others, granting power, authority, and control over the new world. Beast Tamers became the pillars of civilization, commanding living companions, conquering dungeons, and shaping empires. At the Awakening Center of Red Leaf City, prodigies emerge one after another—rare talents, high ranks, and promising futures. Then Kael awakens. The crystal turns black. The system hesitates. F-Rank Talent: [Grave Compatibility] Dismissed as weak and defective, Kael is labeled a failure in a world that worships living beasts. Even he believes it is nothing more than terrible luck. What Kael doesn’t know is that his talent should not exist. While Beast Tamers command the living, Kael awakens the power to command the dead—necromancy, resurrection, and corpse evolution in a system fundamentally designed to reject it. His talent is not ranked low because it is weak, but because it is incompatible with the world itself. As dungeons deepen, factions clash, and hidden truths about the awakening system begin to surface, Kael’s power grows—from solitary undead to evolving legions, from ignored outcast to an existence that terrifies nations. They call him F-rank. But in a world built on flawed rules, the most dangerous power is not the strongest one— It is the one the system was never meant to contain.

Eternal Mastery: Slime Trapped in Time

Yet again, Earthlings were summoned. A dying Time God, already half-corrupted, descended upon Earth with nothing but a single, blinking eye. No body. No mercy. Before he could explain why the other world was collapsing—or what happened—he died. The chosen were cursed. Each Earthling aged from 12 to 60 was reincarnated into another world. Each was trapped in an isolated time loop. Each was abandoned without answers. Ganesh chose to reincarnate as the weakest race imaginable: a slime. Not for survival—but because the system offered him a trait, very powerful: Eternal Mastery [Mythic]. With every death, his body reset. With every loop, his masteries, learned techniques, and pain carried over. He awakened in a slime farm, where slimes were bred like cattle, harvested for food, and burned alive for amusement. He learned quickly. He died quickly. Again. And again. And again. Across loops, Ganesh experimented with his own existence— Fire Slime {Uncommon}. Water Slime {Uncommon}. Acid Slime {Uncommon}. Elemental Slime {Rare+}. Spirit Slime {Legendary}. Dragon Slime {Mythic}. Even Primordial Slime {Divine}. But strength revealed truth. Humans had erased their own history using sealed artifacts. Demons were branded as betrayers. Gods fought unholy beings elsewhere—leaving their failures behind. Beneath ruined cities and sealed fortresses, eldritch creatures waited— Rituals granted power along with a curse. Artifacts erased wills. Faith was devoured before it could bloom. And the deeper Ganesh went, the clearer it became: The world had lost hope and was corrupted with Eldritch. Even the sun and moon were taken over by Eldritch. Now, as gods fall, timelines fracture, and ancient wars resurface, Ganesh must decide— Will he save the world Or will he follow the same path… and become something unholy himself? Dark Fantasy • Time Loop • Eldritch Horror • Progression Fantasy Daily Updates A dark progression fantasy with time loops and psychological erosion (for readers who enjoyed the despair and repetition of Re:Zero). No one 17 and under admitted is due to gore and dark... And an important note, something happens near the end of Arc 3, this is for those who feel limitless loops have no tension....because he can still loop—but every reset tears his soul apart. The truth behind this wound is revealed near the end of Arc Three. {Read it to find out}

Summoner Online: I Became the Tutorial Boss with a 999+ Villainess

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.

The Villain's 100x Refund System: I Paid The Heroines To Leave Me!

Xerxes Blackwood hates two things: Poverty and Dying. Unfortunately, he just transmigrated as the trash-tier villain destined to die bankrupt in Chapter 50. ​His opponent? Alistair, the "Child of Destiny" protected by the plot. His survival plan? Simple. Liquidate his assets, pay the Protagonist to leave him alone, and retire to a private island. ​But then, the [Supreme Philanthropy System] awakened. ​The Rules: ​Spend money on a "Child of Destiny." ​The more they misunderstand your intentions, the higher the Refund Multiplier (10x to 1000x). ​Receive God-Tier Rewards instantly. ​The Plan: Bribe the Hero, Alistair, to quit being a hero. The Action: "Here is 10,000 Gold. Stop training and go enjoy your life." The Result: Alistair trembled. "He is testing my resolve! He wants me to overcome temptation! I must train 100 times harder to be worthy of his rivalry!" [System Reward: 1 Million Gold + Holy Sword.] ​The Plan: Banish the Heroine, Lena, to a foreign continent. The Action: "Here is 50,000 Gold. Pay your debts and leave me alone." The Result: Lena blushed. "He is sacrificing his fortune to protect me? He is sending me away to keep me safe from the war? I will serve him forever!" [System Reward: Soul-Binding Contract.] ​Now, Xerxes has a problem. The Hero treats him as a mentor. The Heroine has moved into his bedroom as a "maid." The local City Lord thinks he is a saint. And the System keeps rewarding him with "Radioactive Items" like Demon Generals and Dragon Eggs that attract even more Protagonists. ​Xerxes just wanted to buy his way out of the plot. Instead, he accidentally bought the entire world. ​"System, I don't want a Harem! I just wanted a refund!"
