In a world where spirit roots dictate destiny, Lu Haotian is discarded as trash. At the Lu Family’s Spirit Root Test, his mortal-grade roots and lack of affinity strip him of favor. Once a promising direct disciple, he is reduced to menial labor while his cousins rise. He endures betrayal in silence, quietly honing his mind and observation. Then comes an opportunity. Something awakens within him, shattering his limitations and granting boundless potential. He conceals it completely, returning to his errands as the same invisible boy. From the shadows, he begins to build and watches the world with cold patience. He trusts nothing blindly. He schemes without mercy. He rises without announcement. In a realm of explosive talent and brute force, the forgotten disciple will prove true dominion is seized in silence—through ruthless logic, patient foresight, and an abyss-deep will.

Aurel Mortis was a necessity that the world did not realise it needed. Under his rule, order reigned and progress flourished. But fear followed in its wake. Aurel was ruthless to his enemies and tyrannical to his subjects. There was peace. There was stability. But there was also terror. And terror drove innovation... nearly leading to Aurel's demise. The kingdoms that once knelt now knew how to hunt. They built weapons capable of killing a 'god'. They called him a tyrant, a monster hiding amongst men. They believed he was obsolete. They were wrong.

The gods have watched over the mortal realm for eons, untouchable in their divine splendor. They have seen empires rise and fall, heroes come and go, challengers broken and forgotten. But they've never seen this. Reincarnated into a corpse in a world where gods reign supreme, a modern soul finds himself wielding powers that shouldn't exist. I died. That should have been the end. Instead, I woke up as Kaelen, a corpse left to rot. Pale skin, cold flesh and very much in a world that isn't mine. A world where gods are real, cultivation is power and death magic is the ultimate taboo. Great! Just great. But here's the thing about being dead: you don't have much left to lose. And when a shadow entity bonds to your stolen soul granting you dominion over the restless dead, you start getting ambitious. Armed with knowledge from my past life as Shen Yue and necromantic powers that shouldn't exist, I'm building something impossible, strength that makes even divine beings pause. The gods who rule this realm from their celestial thrones think I'm an anomaly. Something to observe from their heavenly seats and perhaps eliminate when convenient. They watch me with calculating eyes wondering what I'll do next. Let them watch. Let them wonder. Because while they're debating whether I'm a threat, I'm mastering powers they thought they'd sealed away millennia ago. I'm learning the one truth this world forgot: Gods bleed. They just need the right blade. In a realm where divine law is absolute, the gods thought death was their domain. They are about to learn it belongs to me. My name was Shen Yue. Now I'm Kaelen, the corpse who refused to stay dead. And I have one mission: Replacing their ego. I'm just getting started.

He once ruled as a feared dungeon boss. Now he’s raising a human child. After abandoning his collapsing dungeon, Zortheus never expected to find an infant alone in the wild, or to become her father. Disguised as a quiet villager, Zora, he gives Lila the peaceful life he never had, burying the monstrous past she must never learn. But with her growing dream to become an adventurer, the outside world inches closer to the very truth he fights to hide. And as old threats stir again, their quiet life stands on the edge of a secret away from unraveling. The world remembers him a villain. She only knows him as Dad. Two truths that cannot meet… or everything breaks.

Karsa, the Supreme General of the Great Sun Empire, survived six years in the hellish Lower Continent—an exile earned by a bloody path of slaughter. The world thought him dead, and he thought his hope was lost. Until he saw the "Star Newspaper." The headlines shake the realms: A commoner girl from the tiny Kingdom of Nolan has made history by entering Atlas Academy—the most prestigious institution in the world. To the world, she is a miracle. To Karsa, she is the daughter he thought was gone forever. Now, the General must infiltrate the very elite he once fought. In a den of geniuses, legends, and spies, Karsa must hide his monstrous power to protect his daughter’s future. But how long can a general of sun remain a shadow when his blood is under the spotlight?

Every week, a man walks into the police station and confesses to a murder that hasn’t occurred… yet. When the crimes inevitably come true, the authorities are baffled. Is it luck, coincidence, or something darker?

Something is tearing through the farms of Windshore—something fast, ruthless, and impossible to track. Giles survives its attack by sheer luck. The men who find him don’t believe him. Branded a murderer and dragged toward judgment, Giles is forced to run—hunted by soldiers, stalked by a monster, and haunted by a secret that already made him a criminal long before the creature ever appeared. To survive, he must uncover what’s truly killing the countryside… before the noose—or the beast—claims him first. A dark fantasy of pursuit, secrets, and survival. New chapters: Monday, Wednesday, & Friday.

A world of magic. A "mage" born without it. And an outrageous f*cking crew. In the Valley Kingdom, where steampunk meets futurism and magic means status, one Guild stands wildly apart: the Black Wolf Knights, or rather—the Black Wolves. Their leader, Greed, carries neither magic nor nobility, only a title he never wanted and a forgotten past. And his crew is as unhinged as they are loyal: A Ghost-mage whose eyepatch hides more than it covers. A powerhouse who hits like a Behemoth and naps like it’s a sport. A vice captain calm enough to fool any con artist. A horned lunatic with zero sense of danger—because she is the danger. A cyborg. A wolfdog the size of a lyconbear. And others just as—if not more—chaotic. The Black Wolves survive on grit, loyalty, and a collection of insanely broken abilities. But when a conspiracy threatens to swallow the Kingdom—and pins the crime on them—they become fugitives in the very nation they swore to protect. Armed with a strange power that defies magic. A crew ready to leap off any cliff with him. And a memory fighting to resurface. Greed, the Black Wolves, and a few allies must face enemies the Kingdom never saw coming. The Valley never believed in them. But they might be their last hope.

"You really think you can just hide forever? From them? From me?" "Do you really think we can be together?" she whispered, her voice rougher than she meant. "No. We can't. It just won't work." Zayden tilted his head, his thumb brushing against the frantic pulse under her jaw. "Why?" His voice dropped low, dangerously smooth. "Why can't we make this work, huh?" She swallowed, the movement making her throat press harder against his hand. "Don't forget, You're----" “Say you love me…. Or I’ll fvck that stubbornness right out of you.

His hand tightened around my waist. The jacket slipped down, stopping just above my belly, and suddenly he was too close hugging me from behind. I was shorter than him, and without meaning to... I felt safe. But wait. Why was he holding me like this? Everyone was staring. Even Jimin, mid-laugh with his friends, froze and looked at us. "Yoongi..." I whispered. Was it because we told people we were dating? I needed answers. "Your joggers," he said softly, his voice low against my ear. "They're stained with blood." My breath caught. What if others saw it? What if someone took a picture? My hands trembled. What would he think of me now... a girl who can't even take care of herself? Before I could answer, Jimin ran toward us.

In a world ravaged by the Great Fall, cities lie in ruins, and the lands are shrouded in ash and shadows. Monsters and demons roam the desolate territories, while secret cults worship the darkness, striving to gain a power denied to ordinary humans. Ancient gods watch over the world, intervening only rarely, and a constant sense of unease and danger hangs in the air. In this grim and cold world, every place holds its own secrets, every encounter could be the last, and magic and strength determine who survives and who is left forgotten in the wastelands.

Kaelan Wynn’s life was a cosmic joke, and he was the punchline. Cursed to be the universe's personal punching bag, he navigated a world of falling objects and perpetual misfortune with a practiced smile. That was, until a plane decided to introduce itself to his apartment building. Dying? An unexpected inconvenience. Waking up in an endless white void before a low-tier god who tells you your entire life was a clerical error? That’s just insulting. Offered a second chance, Kaelan is reborn as Zero Ashworth in Aetherion—a magitech world of sparkling runes, political strife, and deep-seated prejudice. The catch? He's now an Archdemon, a member of a feared and hated race. His grand ambition isn't to conquer the world or claim a throne. It's to run a quiet café. His divine gift isn't a legendary sword; it's a Gacha system that lets him summon clones of fictional characters from his old world. The plan is simple: stay hidden, serve coffee, and let his army of avatars handle the messy parts of life.

There existed a tribe of deadly creatures masquerading as humans; the Threadrippers. To survive, they had to devour others alive. Eventually, they were deemed too dangerous, and an extermination order was issued. Just like that, all Threadrippers had been wiped out. All except for one - Ori. But Ori… He wasn’t exactly mentally sound. He hid away in a monster infested forest, determined to never get close with another person - human or otherwise - again. To never repeat his past mistakes. But life is not predictable. Never has been. As if to spite his efforts, Ori was spotted doing something rather unsavory by a group of overly curious adventures: “Umm, hi?” “…” …I’m so fucked.

When the apocalypse gamified Earth, turning reality into a deadly System with monsters, levels, and dungeons, everyone scrambled to survive the brutal new rules. But former QA tester and legendary speedrunner Ethan Cross sees something others can't—the System is a buggy, unfinished mess. Where others see an unbeatable boss, he sees a pathfinding error. Where others pray for luck, he executes frame-perfect exploits for guaranteed drops. His unique [ANOMALY] class and [Glitch Vision] ability let him perceive the cracks in reality itself. Now he's building a guild of misfits called the Beta Testers, making enemies of pay-to-win whales, and drawing the attention of the System Administrators who want to "patch" him out of existence. In a world governed by cruel rules, he's the only one who knows how to break them.

After dying one of the most shameful deaths imaginable, I was granted a second chance. I reincarnated into the world of Akame ga Kill, an anime I’d watched ages ago. Not as the main character. Not even a side character. Just an extra. But Lady Luck decided to drip her love nectar on me, blessing me with a lost, undocumented Teigu; the Absolute Hypnosis Teigu. And as if that wasn’t enough… I now have a big dick. With this newfound power, I’ll do whatever the hell I please, things I’ve always dreamed of. I’ll fuck whoever I want, and I’ll cuck that pathetic excuse for a main character who never had the balls to do what needed to be done. “All the heroines’ pussies shall belong to me, only I have the right to fill them with my cream!”

"Dragons and their spawn rule the skies, the land, and the seas... humanity survives in the cracks, dreaming of a comeback." _____ Power comes from the beast you tame. Wolves, hawks, snakes, spiders, chimeras, the stronger your summon, the brighter your future. Too bad for our protagonist. When everyone else summoned salamanders, eagles, troll dogs(not doge) or tigers, he got… Well, let’s just say the only thing lower on the food chain is dirt. Laughed at, bullied, and living as the butt of every joke, he’s not exactly winning. But giving up isn’t an option... His aging parents sold everything for his "failed" chance, and he won’t let it be for nothing. But hey, this is his story. The weakest beast tamer? Here’s the thing about being at the bottom: it teaches you how to climb. And dragons? Turns out they start small too. As kingdoms crumble under greed and external threats, the weakest tamer begins his rise. Follow his path as he unlocks a potential so rare, so terrifying, it leads to dragons… Every evolutionary line leads to the strongest ‘SSS Dragons’. _______ Warning: Contains world-ending dragons, ridicule-fueled underdog revenge, dragon-scaled protagonist, morally questionable nobles, insane creature evolutions and enough twists to make you wonder if weakest really means luckiest. A MC who’s out to prove everyone wrong… even if it kills him. Spoiler alert: It won’t. For those who love a whole lot of fun, this one’s for you. If you’re looking for a darker story, look somewhere else (Maybe Utopian System (;) This one’s about having fun and taming expectations. _______ We will use the same Discord from my first book, come join! https://discord.gg/W3CjfC2cw4 _______ Silly tags that seem to matter a lot to some readers: No Yaoi, No Yuri, Possibly Harem (Vote! I can write either, and in any case, there will be multiple girls. The only difference is whether he chooses one in the end or goes the "liberal" route.... democracy is yours!), No NTR.
