villain

Lu Yang transmigrated into a ruthless cultivation world—and straight into the ranks of the most treacherous demonic sect of all: the First Saint Sect. His only cheat? A mysterious treasure known as the Book of a Hundred Lifetimes, granting him limited rebirths with all his accumulated power, treasures, and awakened talents carried over into each new life. His initial plan was simple: lay low, cultivate in secret, and never leave the mountain until he achieved true immortality. But in a sect where every disciple is a predator and every senior is a potential murderer, staying unnoticed is harder than it looks. Life 1: Brutally murdered by his charming senior sister. Life 2: Killed the sister, only to be hunted down by an even crueler senior brother. Life 3, 4, 5… Death after death, scheme after scheme. After a hundred lifetimes of surviving betrayal, mastering forbidden arts, and outmaneuvering demons and saints alike, Lu Yang looked around—and realized something terrifying. He was no longer hiding in the shadows. He had become the Shadow itself. The demonic titan they now called… the primordial Saint. Support the book on patreon.com/WangLing338

[Warning] This story contains mature themes including dark romance, obsession, power play, and elements of BDSM. Expect emotional manipulation, shame dynamics, and unconventional relationships. Reader discretion is advised. If there was one person Evangeline Hidalgo would kill,it would be Vincenzo Del Toro. But for the sake of her purity,she knew the only weapon she could possess should not have his blood on them--his tears would make a good substitute. *** Obsession is a damning fate and Vincenzo willingly walks towards it. From his expensive purchase of his bride to the sickening need to possess every breathing inch of her-Vincenzo finds himself in a one man cult.

He was thirty-two, invisible, exhausted, and already finished with life. Betrayed by the two people who defined his misery—his wife and his cruel boss—he seeks refuge in the only place that ever gave him peace: Yggdrasil, the dying DMMORPG scheduled to shut down at midnight. With nothing left to lose, he creates a new character and logs in for one final escape. But the end never comes. A mysterious old woman. A forbidden item. A countdown to oblivion. When the servers fall silent, he doesn’t wake up at his desk. He awakens on a ruined throne beneath a blood-red sky—reborn as the Elder King in a world that should no longer exist. No interface. No logout. No second chances. Only power… and the terrifying truth: This world remembers him.

After dying in a fire, a librarian finds himself before Geshich, the god of stories. Desperate for another chance at life, and avoid the dread of death, he pleads for a second chance. Geshich agrees, on one condition: this time, his life must be worth telling. Reborn as Caleb Lightbane, he finds himself in a medieval world turned on its head, where women are superhuman warriors and men wield magic. Determined to avoid a dull and uninteresting life, Caleb searches for a narrative worthy of divine approval, unaware that his desire for a good story may get him into more trouble than its worth. When he accidentally kills several figures he believes to be bandits in the woods, Caleb stumbles upon a horrifying discovery: a trunk containing a strange and alien substance and the dismembered bodies parts of young girls. Wracked with guilt and curiosity, he spends months studying healing magic, eventually succeeding in restoring them to life. But when the girls awaken, Caleb panics and invents a lie. He tells them they were sacrificed by an evil cult devoted to a god of Entropy, casting himself as a chosen savior: the Prophet of Light. Trapped by his own fabrication, Caleb’s situation worsens when he carelessly creates a clone of himself, one who eagerly volunteers to play the role of the Evil Prophet. From opposite sides of a sometimes carefully constructed myth and sometimes random bullshit they came up with, Caleb and his clone begin to shape their followers into warriors and zealots, forged by faith, lies and gas-lighting. To sustain the illusion, the two prophets engage in deliberate theatrics: staged confrontations, fake prophecies, and calculated displays of mercy and cruelty, all designed to be seen and remembered. And their antics may have caught the attention of more than just Geshich. (2-3 Chapters a week. Usually on Tuesdays and Thursday, sometimes Saturday. But there will be a hiatus between volumes.)

Aegon's soul from another world merged with Acnologia, the Black Dragon King of Fairy Tail, giving him knowledge of future events. He was invincible from the start and wiped out the dragon race four hundred years ago, ending the war between humans and dragons. Acnologia: "Dragons, I'll show you who truly is the chosen one of this era!"

**WARNING** CONTAINS SCENES OF EXTREME PHYSICAL VIOLENCE AND SEVERE DISTRESSING PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA● My tears fell in silence, without even daring to sob… until his tall shadow fell across the threshold. He stepped inside. Slowly. Heavily. His eyes… locked onto mine. The same eyes people said carried the scent of blood, burdened with a dark and haunted past. I was afraid of him… everyone was afraid of him. And yet, I was certain that behind that predatory gaze, another truth existed. His fingers, trembling with hesitation, reached for my face. His touch was so gentle that it was hard to believe those same hands had once clenched the cold hilt of a Jiàn (剑), [a double-edged Chinese sword]. He stared into my eyes… but he did not see me. I could sense it. His gaze passed straight through me. With longing, he pulled me against his chest, as though he wished to chain my soul to his own. That was when I heard it; the fierce, thunderous beat of his heart beside my ear. My fear dissolved. I was calm. I clutched at his clothes and found stillness in the chill of his embrace... yes, in the arms of the devil! He carried secrets too heavy for the earth to bury, and perhaps some men are better left forgotten!

[Reincarnated Villain] + [Merit System] + [Game World] + [Gender Bender] + [Fallen Noble] + [Villain MC] + [Multiple Female Leads] Wensley Fauce was born already ruined. His family name is a joke, the nobles mock him to his face, the commoners whisper behind his back, and the crown princess he adored since childhood publicly crushes his heart. His story ends in disgrace and blood. Then he opens his eyes again. Memories come rushing back from another world, from another life, and the pieces finally line up. This is not reality. This is a girls’ love game he once played, a world built for beautiful heroines and their happy endings. And Wensley is not one of them. He is the most hated villain in the story, a disposable male obstacle fated to lose everything, spiral into madness, and die in a way that makes the heroines shine brighter. His only purpose is to suffer, to be killed, and to never be mourned. Worse, the game’s true heroine has already lived through that future once. She remembers the role he is meant to play. To her, Wensley is not tragic. He is dangerous, a ticking time bomb that must be removed before he can ever explode. With no allies, a shattered reputation, and a script that demands his execution, Wensley should have no way out. Until a strange system awakens. It does not measure power or levels. It measures Merit. Acts of genuine kindness and selfless choices quietly fill an invisible gauge, unlocking sealed bloodlines, hidden strength, and fragments of authority that the Church worked very hard to erase from history. As Wensley tests the limits of Merit, he uncovers a buried truth and a forgotten role the world once depended on. In a kingdom that worships false narratives, and brands villains long before they sin, an impossible path opens: the rebirth of a sage line long believed extinct, and a transformation that will turn the doomed villain into the very kind of woman this world is meant to love. In a story that never planned to save him, Wensley Fauce will prove one thing: he was never the villain to begin with. And this time, he refuses to die just to decorate someone else’s happy ending. ----- Small Reminder: Early chapters focus on description and worldbuilding. The pacing is slower at the start, but it picks up as the story and characters get moving. [GMT+8:00] 2 Chapters are updated daily. 50 Power Stones = 1 Extra chapters per day

Death makes exceptions for all the wrong people. Malfrasius wasn't trying to destroy the world. Even as everyone called him a Dark Lord, he fought to save them. Unfortunately, the Heroine didn't believe him, and his life ended with a blade between his ribs. So when he woke up six years in the past on his way to magic school, he decided that he was going to do things the right way, and without attracting attention. But the butterfly effect has a funny sense of humor. Thanks to his clumsy changes to the timeline, he's in a team with two members of the Heroine's party. The academy's top prodigy knows that he's her equal, despite his F-grade core. And his loyal maid is getting suspicious of his sudden personality shift. Malfrasius wasn't trying to destroy the world. It’s just a shame the world seems so intent on destroying him. --- What to expect: - No numbers. Not a LitRPG - Slow burn, character-focused storytelling - Grounded, steady power development - Dysfunctional character dynamics - Hidden identity shenanigans It's basically a westernized version of korean-style regression novels. If you enjoyed stories like The Regressor and the Blind Saint or Trash of the Count's Family, you'll probably like this.

Planet Earth began to drift away from the sun at a terrifying speed; the world changed, and people struggle to keep up with this shift. But the cold did not only freeze the surroundings; it froze human hearts as well, often driving them to commit acts of extreme evil.

How much are you willing to stake to ease your past guilt? If given a chance, a glimmer of hope, how would you seize it? Are you willing to stake everything for that goal? Lucian's answer will always be the same: in order to meet his parents again, he is willing to stake everything—his life, or even the lives of others. Will he fall or succeed? He doesn’t know. For him, this dim spark of hope is enough to chase after the impossible. But if he were to face the Fragments of the Heavenly Dao that had regained consciousness themselves, could he still say the same?

Excerpt Aristia could not help but stare at the platinum blonde a few steps in front of her. She seemed to sparkle with a glow that drew people in around her. Something that only happened to the main character of a novel. [Is that stupid book sure I'm the female lead?] She thought, her jaws almost going slack. At this point, she was sure she was deluding herself— or the book was deluding her. She didn't know why, but she already disliked the girl. [This is definitely not jealousy.] She rubbed her brows, watching how the innocent, naive looking girl exuding female lead aura was being flocked around already by others despite her low status. "F*ck, I'm really in deep shit!" — Aristia Andrews had just returned home from work and prepared to go to sleep, when she was given a novel. Nothing strange about that though, huh? But just after she had completed the novel, she woke up to find herself tossed into a whole new world. Taken from her world and the life she deemed perfect, and tossed into a not-so-ideal world. She becomes Aristia Amberale, the beloved five year old daughter of the only Grand Duke and Imperial Prince of the kingdom, said to be loved by all in the kingdom. Now part of royalty, she has to get accustomed to living in a backward world of Kings and Queens, Dukes, Marquises, Earls, Viscounts and Barons. Just the titles and hierarchy were enough to make her smart head spin. With beautiful and loving parents and relatives, a hopelessly adorable younger brother who just might be a sis-con, loyal-to-the-death servants, and a smart brain, join Aristia as she enjoys eating and making delicious cuisines, forms unique friendships, and creates successful businesses. However, she finds all is not as she thought it was; there just might be something bigger than she expected that the book did not reveal— something that could turn her well balanced world upside down. First of all, she discovers that her character is actually hated and not loved. Then, she finds out she's not really the female lead. Now... she has a lot of mysteries surrounding her to unfold, secrets to uncover, and a sad fate to avoid. But... "Hey, why are you looking at me with those eyes? The female lead is over there." "You, stop following me around, will you? You're supposed to hate me!" "Stay back, all of you! What's wrong with you?!" But most importantly... why are these obviously important characters not leaving her alone? And why was the cold, unloving soon-to-be Emperor husband of that powerful Empire paying attention to her instead of the female lead? It wasn't supposed to be like this...

Life is a clash of desires, of wants, of musts… What is good? What is evil? Is one who saves his sister in place of hundreds, evil? Is another who sacrifices his sister to save hundreds, good? Life is no idealistic fairytale. Unique, it so easily gives and takes opportunities. For me? Life had taken one, and given another— two lives. This was no longer earth. On Sanctum, the ‘Wheel of Fortune’ decides how we start, but not where we go. As I woke, I knew not who I was, where I was, nor where I came from… Even my name eluded me… Yet I did not care. I knew my purpose. To find her... To find the strength to protect her... To build a reputation she would embrace, as the hero she'd always envisioned... On the 22 floating islands of the Arcane, knowledge is one’s most powerful weapon, and at the same time, greatest vulnerability. The web of lies and deception spread far in this world, some even woven and hidden by the very gods. The abyssal mysteries— those who near them get swallowed within the endless fogs that speak tales of Sanctum’s inevitable doom. For the sake of the world, I envision. This won’t do… Dearest Nina… ___ Dearest Joseph… ******** THERE WILL BE ABSOLUTELY NO HAREM IN THIS NOVEL!! I actively despise it as it slows down the story for no reason and serves NO purpose other than self insert fantasy slop. If you're here for diabolical activities that make sense, a smart MC who isn't naive for the sake of plot, where everything has meaning, leads to things without downtime and empty chapters, a story not about just an OP MC self insert fantasy, character development and morality, a mysterious world and plot twists, you've come to the right place. AUTHOR NOTE: Hey, It's Drip again. You may know me from my work on The Great Demon System The first few chapters will be on earth, then it will transition into fantasy after where things will really pick up (before chapter 10). The MC will be very unique in the way he interacts and develops, things aren't always as they seem on the surface, so I hope you look forward to it :)) As is common with my novels, my MC is NOT a morally ideal person, but it all has meaning so be prepared, or excited! I've been really busy with university work lately and have been cooking this novel up. I feel like it'll be something special. ______ Tiktok: MobyDrip Discord: https://discord.gg/Ps7hXbEJRf

The world keeps turning. Nations wage war for their own interests, rich men flaunt their wealth and enjoy life, and then there's me—Diopha Hitari—someone with nothing special going on, spending my time playing video games and staying up to date with the latest manga chapters. In short, I live a boring life, along with my studies… or at least, that’s how it was supposed to be. My life, once mundane and repetitive, changed in the year 3005 due to a major event that led to the death of more than half of humanity. This irrational event, one no scientist or intellectual could have predicted, was named the "Dungeon Break." What was a tragedy for many turned out to be something entirely different for me—it broke me out of that routine and allowed me to become the most powerful slayer, known as "Artemis," capable of challenging the heavens.

Valentina Vitale returns to Sicily carrying two masks, her new identity and her hidden badge, because her mission demands both. She has come to dismantle the empire of Enzo Domenico, the ruthless kingpin who has poisoned the island with drugs, violence, and an untouchable network of power. She expects danger, she expects lies, and she is prepared for every form of corruption the underworld can throw at her. What she does not expect is Salvatore Esposito. Salvatore is a mafia heir with a spine of steel and a moral code forged through scars. His reputation precedes him, a silent warning to anyone reckless enough to cross him. Valentina knows he represents everything she has sworn to bring down, yet Domenico's rising ambition soon threatens to crush both of their worlds, forcing them toward an alliance she never planned to make. As she goes undercover and he becomes a reluctant target, the one truth neither can ignore is that Domenico stands as the enemy of them both. Drawn together by necessity and bound by secrets they cannot reveal, Valentina and Salvatore step into a fragile partnership where every move is a risk, every truth is a weapon, and every moment between them pulls her deeper into a world she was meant to destroy. She wears her cover like armor, but his gaze cuts through her lies with unsettling precision. Enemies but united in their desire to see Domenico fall, they find themselves on a collision course where loyalty can kill and love can undo everything. As Valentina pushes deeper into the heart of this dangerous game, she must decide which threat is greater: the kingpin she came to hunt or the man who might ruin her heart. Because in Sicily, the line between hunter and hunted, between loyalty and love, is far thinner and far deadlier than she ever imagined.

An ego that demands the summit, a moral compass spinning in the dark, and a "Restriction" the world used to cage him... only for the universe to give him the key. You put all that into a brother who would burn the world just to keep his siblings' hands clean? What do you think you get? A monster? No... Insanity. Toji Fushiguro’s greatest legacy wasn’t a Cursed Technique—it was his firstborn son. Born with a Reverse Heavenly Restriction, Fushiguro Kuro possesses the body of a god and the zero-presence of a ghost. But Kuro carries a secret the world of Jujutsu isn't ready for: a System that allows him to defy the laws of the universe and manifest the very Cursed Energy he was denied. He doesn't care about the balance of the world or the "strongest" title held by the man who killed his father. He has only one goal: Protect his family at any cost. With his twisted sense of justice and personality, of course. ___ Original: 咒回：伏黑家天与的复仇 This is 80% translation and 20% my own input; for example, the MC here isn't a transmigrator but an OC who gets future glimpses in his dreams.
