Damon Kells was a delivery guy drowning in debt, right up until he survived the explosion that supposedly killed Zero, the strongest SSS-rank Hunter on the planet. Now everyone thinks he is Zero… suffering from amnesia. There’s just one problem: he has no mana, and his physical condition is absolutely pathetic.

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!

She is sold into an engagement to settle her family’s debt and endures the humiliation quietly until the night she comes home from work and finds her fiancé announcing he wants to break their engagement… to marry her beautiful sister instead. Humiliated and shattered, Ophelia runs down to a neon-lit street and into a place she was never meant to enter. Before she can leave the strip club, a powerful stranger pulls her down onto his lap, hands firm on her shoulders, voice calm and commanding. “You’re late, wife.” She plays along long enough to survive the night, then he lets her go with a warning to forget everything. Two years later, the world explodes with scandal. Billionaire CEO Dante announces his engagement to the woman long believed to be his secret wife. When she steps into the light, no one recognizes her. She is elegant, poised and beautiful. The Ophelia no one knew. The world calls it a love story years in the making but only they know the truth. Because while some marriages are a match made in heaven, others are born from accidents and lies.

In this otherworld where plumpness is beauty, being thin means being worthless. Megrie was once the lord’s daughter, until her father’s death stripped her of everything. Robbed, starved, and abandoned, she died of hunger. But death was not the end. When she opens her eyes again, she is no longer a girl meant to be trampled— but a top-tier chef from the modern world, the mind behind a chain of successful restaurants. No status? She’ll earn dignity with food. No power? She’ll make the world bow to her flavor. Starting with a single bowl of noodles, she will reclaim her life, humiliate those who wronged her— and conquer this world through cuisine.

Eli Herman is invisible—until he wears the Mask of Pride, a cursed artifact tied to one of the seven deadly sins. With it on, Eli becomes fearless. Respected. Dangerous. But every sin demands a price. As Eli relies more on the mask, Pride begins to shape his words, his choices, and the way he sees others. With other sin masks lurking in the city and unseen eyes watching his rise, Eli must confront a terrifying truth: The mask doesn’t give him power. It decides who deserves it.

They called it a divine apocalypse. Rax called it a liquidation sale. ​When the System initialized, humanity screamed. Rax, however, just checked his margins. Gifted with the Infinite Grimoire, Rax has the unique ability to turn anything—beasts, spells, and even gods—into tradable cards. He doesn’t want to save the world; he wants to corner the market. ​But an infinite inventory comes with an infinite cost. ​It’s called "Conceptual Backflow." Every time Rax forges a card, he doesn't just capture the monster; he absorbs a piece of its nature. Capture a Greed Demon? He becomes too stingy to buy potions. Forge a Paladin? He suddenly develops a suicidal urge to protect strangers for free. ​Now, Rax is fighting a war on two fronts. Externally, he’s battling vindictive Tax Commissioners, rival Guilds who want to burn his shop to the ground, and a System that is actively trying to bankrupt him. Internally, he’s fighting to keep his own sanity before the very cards he sells rewrite his personality. ​Accompanied by Miri—a cute, gluttonous spirit beast who eats his profits and evolves based on what she consumes—Rax must navigate a multiverse of bad deals and worse gods. ​He has the most powerful deck in existence. If only he could stop himself from selling the winning card. ​WHAT TO EXPECT: ​Ruthless Economy & Kingdom Building: The MC is a merchant first, a fighter second. Expect tax evasion, market manipulation, and the struggle to keep a business afloat in a magical apocalypse. ​ Unique "Sanity" Mechanic: The MC is OP, but his power has a psychological cost (Conceptual Backflow). He has to balance his deck to avoid losing his mind to the traits of the monsters he captures. ​ Deep Card & Deck Building System: Fusion, evolution, and dismantling. See how a "Common Slime" and a "Legendary Inferno" can be fused into something ridiculously profitable. ​ Monster Evolution (Miri): A sassy, gluttonous companion who grows from a cute mascot into a terrifying calamity (while still demanding snacks). ​ Real Stakes: No plot armor for his assets. Shops get burned, taxes get raised, and friends get hurt. Every victory comes with a bill attached. ​ Dark Comedy: Bureaucracy is the true final boss.

At the end of the world, Zayne stood alone against the Outer Gods. He was the last survivor, the jagged edge of humanity's resistance. He failed. But death was not the end. Zayne opens his eyes to find himself back in the White Room—the beginning of the Celestial Nexus, the brutal tutorial that started it all. He is stripped of his levels, his titles, and his strength. To the system, he is just another F-Rank mortal destined to die in the first wave. But the System made a mistake. It didn't scan his soul deep enough. Zayne didn't come back empty-handed. He brought a fragment of the Void—the very power that destroyed his world—back with him. [System Error.] [Unauthorized Bloodline Detected: Void Sovereign.] Now, armed with the ability to analyze the fundamental laws of reality and a mind sharpened by a thousand years of war, Zayne has a new objective. He isn't here to save humanity. He isn't here to make friends. He is here to speed-run the apocalypse. While others tremble at the sight of a goblin, Zayne sees a resource. While others form parties to survive, Zayne hunts the hunters. In a game of gods and monsters, he is the only constant. *** **[What to expect]** * **Rational Protagonist:** The MC is calm, calculating, and ruthless when necessary. No whining, no hesitation. * **Solo Progression:** No party drama. The MC relies on his own strength. * **Overpowered (OP):** The MC starts with a massive advantage and only gets stronger. * **Technical Combat:** Fights are decided by strategy, physics, and exploiting weaknesses, not just screaming attack names. * **No Harem:** No romance subplots distracting from the grind.

Look, I’m Riven Kael. Twenty-eight, data analyst, zero ambition beyond paying rent and avoiding small talk. My life was spreadsheets, instant ramen, and the occasional ghost I pretended not to see. Then one mandatory company gala, because of course it was mandatory, turned into the universe’s worst prank. I touched a cursed amulet. I just touched it. Next thing I know, I’m waking up in a penthouse that costs more than my entire bloodline, sporting a glowing marriage sigil on my wrist, legally and magically hitched to Azryth Valek. Yes, that Azryth Valek. The CEO of half the planet, a walking sin in a three-piece suit, an ancient demon lord who was literally sealed inside said amulet until I accidentally set him free. He says we’re bound. Separation means both of us die slowly and painfully. Soul-consumption optional but very much on the table if I’m stupid enough to fall for him. Which, newsflash, I am not. I’m not. Shut up. So now I’m living with an unfortunately hot CEO from hell, dodging assassination attempts disguised as corporate mergers, banishing spirits that show up at my desk like unpaid interns, and pretending we’re a power couple for the cameras while he smirks like he knows exactly how much I want to strangle him. Or kiss him. Or both. Brain, we are not doing this. I didn’t sign up for boardroom battles, multiversal rifts, or the terrifying realization that the arrogant demon who ruined my life might be the only one who truly sees me. But here I am. Still complaining, still fighting, still falling, against every shred of common sense, hopelessly, stupidly, irrevocably in love. Because when the universe marries you to the devil, it doesn’t ask for consent. It just hands you the ring. And damn it, I’m keeping it.

My fated mate rejected me under the Blood Moon. I died screaming his name. I woke up in hell—and the Moon Goddess is waiting. The Lunar Veil isn't the afterlife. It's a trial ground for broken wolves, where Luna strips away everything that makes you human until only truth remains. Ten trials. No mercy. Fail, and your soul burns to ash. My guide? Astro—a fallen Alpha with silver scars and secrets older than sin. He's supposed to help me survive. Instead, we're breaking every rule Luna ever made. Each trial I survive makes me stronger. Each touch between us burns hotter. And the red thread linking our fates? It's the one thing the goddess can't control.

A mysterious clan who had lived in total isolation for almost 2 decades had to adapt to the outside world.

Nothing in this world is immortal. I learned that lesson the hard way. I used to believe I was above death. I made worlds, wrote laws, and watched lives rise and fall like waves beneath me. I thought eternity was my right. Then I died. Now I’ve been reborn as a human baby named Noel Cromwell—weak, helpless, and unable to even move on my own. I can’t use my power. I can barely feel mana. Most days, all I can do is sleep and listen to voices I don’t yet understand. It’s humiliating. It’s frightening. And somehow… it’s warm. A system watches me, measuring my worth with cold numbers. It tells me my strength is zero. That I am nothing. And yet, it brands me with something it shouldn’t: UG Tier — Ultimate God Tier. A reminder of what I once was. A hidden trait awakens soon after— God’s Memories. I can learn faster than anyone. I can understand things no child should. But every time I push myself, my body screams in exhaustion, and darkness creeps in at the edges of my vision. Worse, I’m not alone. Something is watching me from the shadows. The system itself seems uneasy, as if my existence is a mistake it doesn’t know how to fix. This time, I’m not a god. This time, I can truly die. And if I want to live long enough to understand why I was reborn— I’ll have to survive this fragile life first, one breath at a time.

In a world where everyone is expected to follow the normal routine, it takes courage to stand out, especially when life itself seems determined to pull you back into line. Obaseki Nkiru Adilia has never been ordinary. From a young age, she refuses to follow protocols simply because everyone else does. Strong-willed, self-disciplined, and fiercely goal-oriented, Adilia believes in carving her own path. By the age of fourteen, she has already mapped out her life goals, convinced that determination alone can shape her future. But life is rarely that simple. As Adilia grows older, she is confronted with unexpected hurdles, conflicting loyalties, and pressures that challenge everything she believes in. Dreams begin to clash with reality, and the price of being different becomes painfully clear. Standing at a crossroads, she must decide whether to conform to the normal way of life or pursue her dreams, no matter how difficult or uncertain the journey becomes. This is not just the story of an African girl. It is the story of anyone who has ever felt torn between expectation and ambition, of anyone who has been told their dreams are unrealistic or impossible. It is a story about courage, resilience, and the choice to believe in oneself, even when the world says otherwise.

Author : Hold it right there, yes, I'm talking to you, I promise this won't take more that a minute — If you're a fast reader. Oh you stayed, wonderful. Here's the thing, I requested a webnovel contract for my story — yes this one — and it was rejected, but unlike the other people who would cry and take up a new story, I'm pissed, they had the guts to tell me my story isn't what the audience are looking for and I say fuck that! But I'm not giving up, I can't, my pride won't let me, I know what I had planned for this story and am telling you it has the potential to be on the top 10, no I'm not being delusional. So here's what's up, I want to proof them wrong and I need your help in during that, since we can't go golden or best seller. I say we dominate the power rankings. I'll upload the entirety of volume 1 here—not all at once, obviously —and then we'll move to patron for the others. Now you can continue, see you on the other side.... Godspeed Soldier. The Force Of Ender Remains With you. .......... We were deceived…. We all were. They never said that the Rapture would unleash these kind of monsters unto the earth. They never mentioned what would crawl out from the aftermath Rapture or what would be forced to crawl back in. The entirety of the earth was terraformed in an unrecognisable way, so much that it could not be called earth anymore…… Maps became things of old. Directions lost meaning. Even the sky stopped pretending to remember us. *Sigh* I did want I could to survive, but…. they died, one after another… Not all at once. That would have been mercy, mercy I would have begged for... People screamed. Some adapted. Others smiled before they broke. I kept count until the numbers started staring back at me. But things — things never go the way I plan… Or maybe they did— and that’s the part I don’t want to admit. As for me…. It turns out, I never really knew who I was. Not before the world — 'They' came for me. Not before freedom and survival demanded pain and sacrifices. I changed….. I became the very thing that I— Promised I wouldn’t. Feared I already was. *Sigh* Or hoped I was. I don’t know if someone is but— haha who am I kidding, I’m not that special I know that. *Sigh* But on off chance there is — If there’s someone out there writing my story…. Please… Drop the pen… Because I’m tired… *Sigh* so tired. _______ For images and discuss... Any suggestions you may have is most welcome, dm me up on discord.
