Oliver Halter’s life is already a chaotic mess—between his leaky apartment, judgmental neighbors, and a landlord ready to bite his head off, the last thing he needs is some shady notification spamming his phone. But one accidental tap later, Oliver finds himself bound to a mysterious Stardom System that insists he’s a contestant in a cutthroat journey to fame and fortune. Armed with nothing but his sharp tongue, killer fashion sense, and a virtual assistant with zero patience, Oliver must complete bizarre tasks to climb the ladder of stardom—or face deadly penalties. Fame has never been this dangerous, and failure isn’t just embarrassing—it’s fatal.

[A REWRITTEN VERSION OF THIS STORY IS BEING PUBLISHED WITH SAME NAME, YOU CAN CHECK THE AUTHOR PROFILE TO VISIT IT, ALL UPDATES WILL BE THERE] [ WARNING: SEXUAL CONTENT AND LEMONS ] Born into the prestigious Li family of the Ancient Immortal Realm, Li Fang Ren awakens to a mysterious system that seems to defy all logic. The Lazy Cultivation System grants him a shocking ability: the more he stays idle, the stronger he becomes. No effort needed. No training required. Simply existing is enough to grow infinitely powerful. To everyone's shock, he receives an Ancient Sacred Body at birth—a physique that breaks all heavenly restrictions and eliminates all cultivation limits. But his family wants to hide his talent, seal his power, and keep him safe from those who would exploit him. Li Fang Ren, however, has other plans. While his family worries and his enemies scheme, he simply chooses to do nothing. He reads. He sleeps. He wanders through life lazily, and with each passing moment, he inches closer to immortality. A thousand years pass like fleeting moments. Generations rise and fall. Emperors become legends. Yet Li Fang Ren remains, seemingly dormant, secretly the most powerful being in existence. When the heavens finally decide to intervene and cosmic forces threaten the world, he must rise. But by then, the question is no longer whether he can win—it's whether anyone can even stand before him.

In a world where the Blessed are gifted divine interfaces that unlock unique powers, Neil Thorne is born into one of the strongest noble lines. But on the day of his awakening… nothing. Though rare, a systemless heir isn’t unheard of. Neil’s family refuses to cast him aside; instead, they train him the old way. But when Neil witnesses the brutal death of his little brother at the hands of a god-like being, something inside him fractures and awakens. Not a system. Not a blessing. An anomaly: The Framework. (First arc moves fast; hold on.)

Once, Serein was a Guide—devoted, loyal, and in love. She gave everything to her guild master, believing his promise of marriage when they reached the top. Instead, she was betrayed. Abandoned in an S-rank gate, left to be devoured by monsters while he escaped with another. But death was not her end. When she opens her eyes again, it’s the past. Before the guild. Before the lies. Before she became a Guide. This time, Serein swears to live quietly—an ordinary office job, lazy weekends, and a life far away from Hunters. She almost succeeded… until a single mistake exposed her powers. Now, every path she takes draws the gaze of S-rank Hunters. - Zane, her dangerous new neighbor, the cold guild master who believes Awakeners are more than weapons. - Kai, the reckless trainee who knows her secret. A foolish but brave soul. - Sylvan, the relentless CBAA officer who will never let her go. - Elias, the shining idol who dragged her into the spotlight. - And Deimos, the enigmatic crime lord of Maledictus, who sees in her a power worth possessing. Once a forsaken Guide, now the most hunted woman alive. Will Serein find the peace she craves, or be claimed as prey by the very Hunters she swore to escape?

In a modern world where rifts appear out of nowhere, unleashing invading monsters, the Jaeger Company is the country’s worst-rated hunter outfit: always late with reports, constantly on the brink of bankruptcy, yet inexplicably the most effective when it comes to critical missions. At its head? Captain Elias Mercer—24 years old, charismatic, a tactical genius… and a pathological slacker. He spends his days loafing around in his smoke-filled office while his vice-captain, Mara O’Connel—a regulation-obsessed stickler—cleans up all the messes he leaves behind, or at least tries to… --- Schedule : 2 chap per day Discord : https://discord.gg/UYB2T7Ez

Ethan's life was going well... sort of. With three months to his wedding and almost enough savings to finally quit his stripping job, everything seemed almost perfect… Till his fiancé suddenly dumps him, and he loses everything he's ever built... in the span of one week. Standing at the edge of a storybuilding, he's about to throw himself off to end the suffocating pain when he suddenly gets a call... for an interview with a high-ranking company he never applied to. A company under the renowned Alpha Aurelian Vale. The S-tier Alpha who would change his life forever, and just may be tied to Ethan's present and past in more ways than he could even begin to imagine. The Alpha he THINKS he doesn't know. ******* "Why should I trust you? Isn't playing games the core of your business? Everything is a game to you. Even this... "He says, and I step closer to him... pushing myself against him, as I see fear return to his eyes. "You don't know me, Ethan. "I remind him, and I watch the anger in his eyes melt into stubbornness. "And you also don't know me, Mr. Aurelian! "He retorts, and I smirk. That's the Ethan I like. Feisty. "But I do know you. "I say, and he visibly gulps as beads of sweat begin to form across his forehead. "You're impulsive, stubborn, and daring. You are broken and hurting inside, but you mask all that pain with a smile. Never really healing from them, but burying them. Praying the day doesn't come when they rise from their graves. Your humour is your defence mechanism. It makes you feel stronger when you're intimidated or scared. "I continue, and his jaw drops as he gawks at me. I lean in closer to him, enjoying the heat of the proximity, as I drop low enough for my lips to brush against his ear, and his delicate orchid scent fills my lungs. "Am I wrong? "I question him, and he just blinks back. Visibly stunned by my words. I smile in satisfaction at him before stepping away from him, and once again I hit the emergency stop button. "I know you better than you think, Ethan. The sooner you understand this, the better. "I add before reaching for a cigar in my breast pocket and lighting it. I know it's against the rules, but I don't care. "You might want to cover that. "I say, pointing at the bulge in his pants, and he immediately turns red as he tries to drag his shirt down to cover it. Just then, the elevator doors open, and I smirk as people pour into the elevator, looking between Ethan and me. I see the stink eyes I get because of the cigar in my hand, but I only step out of the elevator because of the infant I see a mother carrying. As I leave Ethan behind, I send him a text. *Meet me in the car.*

Levi never expected anything good in life as a rejected orphan but he could never had imagine that he would be one of the ones chosen by the midnight spell where he has to face and complete trials that would determine which divine powers he would be blessed with.

It’s the age of superhumans! Genetic modifications, Cybernetic enhancements, magic enchantments- the choice is yours! For the right price, you can rise above the masses and gain power only ever seen in myths! For the right price! No matter how far humanity advances, power will always fall in the hands of the wealthy few. It was a truth Dante learned at a very young age and with it came a burning hatred for those who use power to oppress and dominate. The flames grew stronger once he found himself faced with the cruelty of those who rule from above. Left all alone in the world, robbed of everyone he cherished, Dante swore revenge on those who hurt him, but true power couldn’t be fought with hatred alone. In his search for a weapon that could help him take his revenge, Dante crosses paths with a certain Artifact, his fate taking a turn he could never have anticipated. =================================== This is not a Fan Fic.

“I gave you my soul in my last life. In this one, I’ll settle for your crown.” ~ In my first life, I was the devoted Queen. I waited two months for my husband, King Lauren, to return from the front lines—only for him to walk through the palace gates with a beautiful young maiden by his side and a decree in his hand: ‘She would be the new Queen’. And because of that evil beauty he brought to our kingdom, I died a discarded "nobody," executed for a crime I didn't commit. But death didn't take me. It sent me back. I woke up on the morning of his return. The crowds are cheering, the flowers are blooming, and my husband is about to humiliate me in front of the entire kingdom. But he doesn't know I've changed. He doesn't know I've returned with a special skill that makes me the most dangerous woman in the room. Before he can introduce his "New Queen," I hand him the one thing no one in this kingdom has ever dared to ask for: Divorce papers. In our land, a Queen asking for divorce is an abomination punishable by stoning. But Lauren thinks I’m bluffing. He looks me in the eye, tears my petition to shreds, and growls, “You are my wife. I will never stamp those papers.” He thinks he is keeping me trapped. He doesn't realize he has trapped himself in a palace with a woman who knows every one of his secrets—and is prepared to burn his kingdom to the ground just to see him sign his name. My goal is simple; I will make him fall... not in love, but to his knees. Since he spent my first life making me cry. I’ll spend my second making him bleed.

Transmigrating into a Yuri-themed Xianxia world, Ye Anping found himself as an unnamed cannon fodder with poor cultivation aptitude, a cannon fodder who is destined to meet a tragic end at the hands of a minor antagonist when he was fifteen. Ye Anping felt a sense of despair. Fortunately, he was only four years old now, and by his side was a junior sister with exceptional aptitude. Ten years later, the junior sister had grown up, becoming not only more beautiful but also stronger, and she caught the attention of the dashing female protagonist. Then, instead of going with the protagonist, his junior sister pin him down to the ground instead, and began to strip. Ye Anping: "Junior Sister, I am your senior brother, you-"

When I opened my eyes, I realized I had been reincarnated into a cultivation game. But not as some heaven-defying protagonist, nor even a notable side character. No, I became a nameless NPC with trash-tier spirit roots—doomed to die at the age of fifteen at the hands of a minor villain. My name is Ye Anping. And yes, I was despairing. Fortunately, it wasn’t all hopeless. At least... I was only four years old. Even better, I had a junior sister—an ordinary NPC according to the game lore—who was actually blessed with peerless talent. A natural genius who could make the heavens weep. Ten years passed in the blink of an eye. My junior sister grew up. She became strong. Beautiful. Radiant, like the moon hanging high above the mortal world. And then, the protagonist noticed her. And then… my junior sister push me down to the bed!? Ye Anping: “Junior Sister, I’m your senior brother, I—!” (Spoiler: it didn’t matter.)

She’s building her future from nothing. He’s running from everything he was born into. Whitney is grit, code, and sleepless nights. David is wealth, legacy, and a life that feels like a cage. When their paths cross in New York City, two opposite worlds collide—igniting a romance neither of them expected and neither of them can control. Because sometimes, the greatest love stories begin where comfort ends.

a world forever altered by the emergence of mysterious monoliths and the Awakening of superhuman abilities, seventeen-year-old Max Morgan lives in the shadows of New York, haunted by the scars of a past life he can scarcely forget. Reincarnated from Alex, a battle-hardened special ops agent betrayed and gunned down by his own team after forty-seven years of unwavering loyalty, Max has vowed never to let anyone close enough to wound him again. Trust, to him, is a fatal weakness—a lesson etched in blood from his former existence, where camaraderie turned to treachery in a haze of gunfire and desert dust. Orphaned young and raised by his elder sister Elena, a confident Awakened warrior thriving in her guild's dungeon raids, Max feigns normalcy as an unremarkable, unawakened teen. But when his own system finally activates, granting him the unique skill "Administrator Rights"—a daily Administrator Point convertible into a thousand stat points or a hundred skill points—he glimpses a path to unparalleled power. Capable of eclipsing seasoned Awakened through sheer, effortless growth, Max converts his points in secret, boosting his stats to godlike levels while testing his might in low-level dungeons under a ridiculous paper-bag disguise to avoid detection. Yet, even as he unleashes brutal fury on monstrous foes, . Max's isolation deepens. Paranoia from Alex's betrayal keeps him from confiding in Elena or forming bonds, turning his gift into a solitary curse. As whispers of greater threats loom and fleeting encounters hint at potential allies, Max must navigate a world of heroes and horrors, all while guarding his heart against the one enemy he fears most: vulnerability. In this tale of reincarnation and redemption, power comes easy—but trust may prove impossible.

'Kai, you're a boy, but you're so good with Mystic that I'm going to enrol you in the Mystical Class.' 'Can I refuse, Madam Principal?' "Hahaha... "You want to reject it, then? I'll give you a choice: you can either be expelled and become test material for the Imperial Mystical Tower, or accept my recommendation." 'I'd go for the latter.' It was an offer I couldn't possibly refuse. My name's Kai von Salvador, but that's not my real name. I was at the best magic academy in the empire, which was actually in Yuri's game, 'Scarlet Butterfly Chronicle'. It's a game where men don't feature at all, because in the world of the game women are more talented in Mystica than men. So, in this world women control the government. It's a unique setting that combines Victorian-era steampunk with magic. I'm the only guy in the special class at the moment. Oh no! 'I just want peace…'
