Trash of a Wealthy Family: My Gacha System Guarantees S-Rank Rewards

[Chapters lock after 50,000+ words] Born into unimaginable wealth, Aiden Arclight was the heir of the most powerful clan on the Revonia Continent— Owners of an SS-Rank Mana Vein. The Arclight doctrine was absolute: Power builds legacy, Wealth sustains legacy, Family is optional. But Aiden never fit. Where others plotted, he showed mercy. Where others chased power, he chose compassion. To the Arclights, that made him worthless. Everything shattered during the Origin Awakening Ceremony. Before the entire clan, Aiden awakened the lowest result in history: (F-Rank Unique Ability and Origin Heart detected) (Minor Null Field) Causes minor disturbance in skill activation and mana flow. Laughter followed, then contempt, then silence. When Aiden needed them most, not a single family member stepped forward. By nightfall, he was cast out— stripped of his name, inheritance, and home. The golden heir became a homeless exile in one day. Yet even at rock bottom, Aiden refused to break. And when the world turned its back on him… something else answered.

The Unwanted Prince of Prussia

Power decides fate— but what happens when fate makes the worst possible choice? Reincarnated war-nerd Zhan Ge, whose only real-life experience with conflict was driving military supply trucks in Ukraine “for research purposes,” suddenly opens his eyes in 1903… inside the body of Prince Oskar, the awkward, ignored fifth son of Kaiser Wilhelm II. In the German Empire, he’s supposed to be noble. Disciplined. Patriotic. Elegant. Instead, he’s: – socially anxious, – addicted to military history, – speaking German like an Austrian action hero, and – climbing palace trees to hide from responsibility. Branded “the strange prince,” never taken seriously, Oskar becomes the forgotten Hohenzollern— the prince nobody needed. But Zhan Ge knows something no one else in 1903 could even imagine: Germany is racing toward a catastrophe. The world’s first global war. A disaster that will shatter empires, redraw continents, and erase millions. If he does nothing, the German Empire collapses. He loses his title, his home, his future, and—worst of all— his chance at a peaceful life with a wife, money, food, and absolutely zero trenches. To survive, Oskar must change history itself: strengthen Germany without unleashing darker futures stop the world from repeating its greatest tragedies outsmart rival princes, generals, ministers and avoid accidentally starting WWI early with an Arnold Schwarzenegger one-liner. Armed with a century of historical knowledge, modern logic, and a dwarf attendant who constantly questions his sanity, the most unwanted prince of Prussia stands at the dawn of a new century… Determined to reshape the fate of Europe— or die trying (again).

A Different Middle-earth: A King's Tale

[ CURRENT STATUS: 222.538 Words ] [ Status: Ongoing - Long Chapters (2500-4500 words each) ] --- There are thousands of worlds, each with its own stories and legends. Every storyteller has a different motive: some seek power and wealth, others love and revenge. Some strive for adventure and passion, while others fight for justice and peace. In one of these many worlds—a distorted version of Middle-earth—a young man’s journey begins. However, the peace of this day is a deception. Our hero was once an ordinary teenager who died protecting a friend in a gang fight. He wakes up to find himself in a Middle-earth that is vastly different from the tales he knew. In this realm, Elves, Humans, and Dwarves share the land with darker shadows: Vampires, Liches, Werewolves, Hydras, and Basilisks. The history of this world is not what was told in the books. While our hero sets out for the Shire to find Gandalf and Thorin, he acquires a Kingdom Building System, turning his survival mission into an epic quest to carve out his own destiny. --- ⚠️ WARNING FOR TOLKIEN PURISTS: This is a Radical Alternative Universe (AU). While the foundation of this world is built upon Tolkien’s original work vast parts of history and lore have been fundamentally rewritten. You will encounter familiar landmarks and themes, but the origins of races like Orcs and Dark Elves, and the inclusion of entirely new creatures, mark a deep departure from the original books. Fanfiction is about exploration and "What if" scenarios. If you are looking for a story that strictly adheres to the established canon, this is NOT for you. If you want the original story, the books are always there to be reread. --- What to expect: Grounded MC: No overpowered protagonist. Success is earned, not given. No Harem: While the MC remains loyal to one person, you might encounter side characters or world elements where harems exist. Strategic System: The system is for management and kingdom building, not a "cheat code" for instant strength. Complex Hero: A slightly chaotic yet serious protagonist. A Multiverse Twist: Potential appearances from different anime universes and John Flanagan’s works. Alternative Universe: This is a radical departure from the original Hobbit and LOTR canon. Strictly no LGBT content. --- the world where the novel takes place is middle earth as seen in the hobbit and lord of the rings books. [author of the books: john ronald reuel tolkien] but i made some changes. sites that are my sources of information about the world: for map: http://lotrproject.com/ for information: https://tolkiengateway.net also some characters from john anthony flanagan books will be in my novel.

A Luna for Alpha Kieran

Alpha Kieran Never Took the Same Woman Twice... Until Her! Exiled. Betrayed. Broken. Autumn knew love was a luxury,a blunt lie...until the most ruthless Alpha in the realm claimed her as his mate… only to publicly reject and humiliate her before his entire pack. But when the moon rises, his hands tell a different story. Night after night, he drags her into his bed, his teeth grazing her throat as he growls: "You are my property, little thief.Never forget that!" Secrets lurk beneath his cruelty. Lies poison their bond. And when Autumn discovers her long dead sister is alive...and wearing Kieran’s mark.. she will have to choose - Trust fate, trust the Moon Goddess who never favoured her. Or trust her guts! [ Disclaimer : There might be scenes that resemble or are near r*pe scenes. But definitely not in the exemplary way. They are there for a reason in the story. It reflects some reality of the brutal world they live in. It unfolds as we move ahead. If it bothers you, please stay away. And please keep in mind, this is a story about a kickass female lead, despite all her suffering, she still kicks balls. So if you want someone whimpering, shy submissive...stay away from the book. One more thing to keep in mind is the fact that Alpha Kieran isn't our typical 'hero' material. He has a disturbing past, is morally gray sometimes, takes rash decisions... And is severely flawed... But definitely this creates a massive scope for growth and character arch ( you are free to hate him but give him a chance to tell his story as he lives through the highs and the lows) . PS : This book will gradually introduce you to other supernatural creatures and lores that might not be typically connected to werewolf books. Though the story primarily follows a single love story, it is plot driven. Which means you will be introduced to several supporting characters on the way. So keep an open mind and try to immerse yourself in the experience. ( keep a look out for bonus side stories too ) Now, if you are ready...grab your seat belts and lets go on a ride. #HappyReading everyone

LOTR: Children of Refusal

At the Waters of Awakening, an elf is born with memories that don’t belong to this world. When the Valar arrive with their shining offer - salvation, eternal light, a paradise across the sea — he sees what others cannot. A price hidden beneath divine promises. Safety traded for freedom. So he does the unthinkable. He refuses. The Avari-the Unwilling, the Refusers, the ones history will forget — follow him into exile. What unfolds is not a tale of wandering wonder, but of building: walls raised against the coming darkness, weapons forged without divine guidance, a kingdom carved from nothing but will and determination. Because in Middle-earth, freedom is never free. And darkness always comes to collect. ━━━━━━━━ ⟡ AUTHOR’S NOTES ⟡ ━━━━━━━━ Lore-heavy beginning: The opening chapters introduce many Tolkien terms, names, and worldbuilding elements. If it feels dense at first, don’t worry - each chapter ends with a mini-glossary to help you navigate everything easily. Long-form chapters: The chapter count may look small early on, but every chapter is substantial (3,000+ words minimum, often much longer). AU & apologies to lore purists: This is an Alternate Universe kingdom-building story set in Tolkien’s Middle-earth. I apologize in advance to hardcore LOTR fans for any lore liberties or naming mistakes - I’m doing my best to honor the source material while exploring new possibilities. Constructive feedback is always welcome (kindly, please)! Give it a chance. The Avari are waiting!!!

The Prime Biocrat:I Become The God Of Evolution.

Title: The Prime Biocrat Synopsis: Silas is a coward. His only power is Fusion, and it is pure agony—a feeling of his cells being shredded and haphazardly stapled back together with foreign biology. A crocodile scale grafts over his eye. A rat’s leg fuses to his ribs, twitching uselessly. He can’t control it. He just survives it, screaming and sobbing through each regression in the System Apocalypse. After six lifetimes of dying early, shivering in the dark, and fleeing from pain, his seventh run is different. He lasts a decade. He learns the secrets: the 30-day countdown before the Descent, the location of the first safe zones, the true, cosmic horror of the Harvesters. He becomes a living encyclopedia of survival... and despair. His final death isn't by monster, but by his own traitorous power—a forced fusion that tears his body apart from the inside. In that last, excruciating second, a Transmigrator seizes the broken vessel. He awakens on the bathroom floor as Chronos. The coward’s memories are his. The impending doom is his. But the power is utterly new. Where Silas had a volatile, painful Fusion, Chronos awakens Extreme Biokinesis—a sovereign's control over flesh. He doesn't just fuse; he understands, optimizes, and commands. The crocodile’s scale becomes flawless armor, woven into his skin without a single misfired nerve. The eagle’s sight is integrated as a perfect, painless upgrade. He has thirty days before the world ends. Thirty days to use a coward’s memories and a god’s talent to build something that won’t just survive, but rule. This is the story of two men in one body. One, a broken regressor who knew only fear and pain. The other, a cold architect who sees biology as a tool. Together, they will turn a Hudson Valley winery into The Bastion—not a hideout, but the heart of a Neuro-Sovereignty, a hive-mind collective strong enough to face warlords, dungeons, and the sleeping hunger of the earth itself. Will the knowledge of the coward and the will of the transmigrator be enough to break the cycle? Or will the very power meant to save them, become the final nightmare? --- Tags in this story): Transmigration, Regressor, Biokinesis, KingdomBuilding, ProgressionFantasy, Apocalypse, Action, Adventure, MaleLead, IntelligentMC, Sci-Fi, System, Survival.

The Echoes Of The First Turning

Echoes of the First Turning In a world shaped by ancient promises and repeated failure, peace is never permanent. When Princess Elmyra of the Human Kingdom of Valewynn vanishes without a trace, the balance between the Five Kingdoms begins to fracture. No army invades, no enemy claims responsibility—only a cryptic letter is left behind, bearing an ancient symbol and a riddle that speaks of broken promises and a world caught in a repeating cycle. Desperate, King Alaric IV summons fifty of the realm’s finest knights and swordsmen, promising any reward to whoever brings his daughter home. Among them stands an unlikely figure: Kael, a human boy with no title, no crest, and no combat renown—only the son of a humble swordsmith. As rivalries ignite and mistrust spreads among the chosen warriors, Kael uncovers the truth behind the kidnapper’s riddle, leading a small, uneasy group to a forgotten shrine buried beneath the earth. There, Kael awakens an ancient relic—a sword bound not to royalty or strength, but to resolve. Through visions of the First Turning, Kael learns the terrifying truth: long ago, the leaders of the Five Kingdoms chose to seal away a great darkness instead of destroying it. That decision fractured the world’s fate, creating a Cycle in which evil returns again and again—each time stronger, more patient, and more aware. Now marked as the bearer of the first relic, Kael becomes a target of forces far older than any kingdom. As the Cycle advances, ancient races stir beneath oceans, forests, mountains, and stone. The kidnapper watches from the shadows, their identity unknown, their purpose tied to the same ancient failure that doomed the world centuries before. With the princess still missing, the kingdoms on the brink of war, and the truth threatening to unravel everything humanity believes about heroism and destiny, Kael must walk a path no crown can guide—one that may finally break the Cycle… or complete it.
