Reborn to Roast the East India Company with My Emperor System

In modern India, Vihaan Roy, a 28-year-old workaholic businessman running his family’s sprawling import-export empire, dies in a tragic car crash. Obsessed with Indian history and trade, he regrets burying himself in work, yearning for a life of joy. As he fades, he wishes for a second chance to truly live. Reborn in 1600 Surat as Jai Vora, son of a middle-class spice merchant, he awakens with the Emperor System, a mystical interface granting stats (Power, Stamina, Endurance, Health, Wisdom, Agility, Perception, Luck, Charm), starting with Wisdom=100 and Charm=1, and the Ability Detector to scan others’ stats and loyalty. Jai spends his early years savoring life’s pleasures—market games, street food, family warmth—in his bustling port city. But when the East India Company’s ship Hector docks in 1608, his past-life memories flare: these foreigners will plunder his homeland. At age 8, with Charm=7 and a knack for rallying allies, Jai vows to roast the EIC with wit, trade, and sabotage, building an empire to rival theirs. The Emperor System fuels his rise, offering quests (e.g., recruit followers with stats above 10), stat-stealing (with risky backlash), and loyalty perks (x2 learning at +10 loyalty, system benefits at +50). Normal folk have stats of 8-10, elites hit 20-25, prodigies boast 40-100, and nobles range 20-80, but Jai’s stats can soar un-constrained, marking him as a legend. From charming street kids to outsmarting Mughal nobles, Jai grows from a clever boy to a trade titan. He faces cutthroat rivals, EIC schemers, and rare prodigies (like a Power=80 warrior), using his Ability Detector to recruit or steal stats. Quirky moments—like “branding” spices or tossing modern slang into Mughal courts—clash with heartbreak, as betrayals and losses (family, loyal allies) test his resolve. By his 20s, Jai commands trade routes, influences emperors, and battles EIC fleets, his Charm and Wisdom turning foes into followers. Will he rewrite history, balancing joy and duty, or will the system’s temptations (stat-stealing’s cost) doom his dream? Reborn to Roast the East India Company with My Emperor System is a thrilling blend of historical intrigue, game-like progression, and swaggering defiance, as Jai Vora becomes the GOAT of India.

Levelling Up, I Became The strongest Dragon Elementalist

You live in the United States? Imagine if blue mana rain fell and dragons descended from the sky, lifeless, straight into your city or at your doorstep? Tell me what's gonna be the outcome? Lemme guess; mana fuses into everything, including life forms and the non-living and plants will be like, "I will kill everything", or even four-legged mammalian animals fused with mana begin to grow wings. It's gonna be a damn chaos with a bunch of weird stuff everywhere, I've been there and guess what? I saw a monkey with three asses. Hilarious right? But to me it was terrifying, like, what does a monkey need three damn ass for? But what if this all Mana situation was controlled? What would the results be? Evolution right. Yeah, humans are way too smart to let such an opportunity pass them by, but the same Homo sapiens were devious and selfish; they want all the good things to themselves. In this world, I am Jayden Logan, rejected by my father because I didn't get a great SAT score, but don't worry, I'm a genius. My SATs were low because of these devious humans, you can call them the weapon fashioned against me, but don't worry, I conquered. Eventually, I break through the tough bars of this world of beast taming and gain a beast with potential greater than anyone else's, and I even found true love. But my biggest rival was a scientific organisation, MAGEO and the man in charge? Guess who it was? The United States governor, body and soul. Swears, I was damn fascinated when I realised. They were sure planning something big with those dragons, I wasn't certain of it, but I knew it wasn't good. I don't really know how my story is gonna end, but one thing is certain, I'm gonna cultivate my beast and kick some ass.
