Nightmare Express

Myths about the Nightmare Express state that whoever rides the train between 11:00 p.m. and 11:59 p.m. will be sent to another dimension. A scary one. Others thought it was probably just a way to scare teenagers into coming home early. But office workers like Ren had no choice. Overtime pay is the most important, and so he rode the train at 11:11 p.m. to go home, back to his cheap apartment. This situation was what greeted the crazy-but-not-too-crazy villain from another universe, who was also named Ren. He just had his soul transmigrated into the salaryman's body after pathetically dying in the hero's hand because he forgot that he was supposed to resist. It's better to die quicker, anyway. There's just no fun in that world. That righteous insect keeps on winning for some reason. It was so tiring for a villain like him! From then on, Ren had to face and survive the nightmare instances given to them by the "Nightmare Express" together with his newly-found-worthy colleagues and pig teammates. -- An excerpt from the novel: [Congratulations, player no. 250 Ren, for successfully finishing the instance! Here's your reward.] [Item: Red Envelope (Hong Bao)] [Rank: F (Trash)] [Sorry, I can't give you money. I'm so useless, ah.] Ren opened the envelope and fell into silence. "..." Fuck, it was indeed empty. Then what was it for?! -- A promise of daily updates, a story that will focus on the plot more than romance (this is, in fact, a no-romance novel), an unconventional protagonist who will not have a female lead but would rather enjoy every instance while creating a team of strong colleagues along the way, no harems and mindless simps, every character will have their own development and personality, and the twisted mysteries! Beware of mature contents (not really that bad, but it's better to be warned). Not the sexual kind of mature content, though. More like, gory and other bloody themes. But not too bloody.

Becoming a God Starts with Acting

A world without gods struggles against cunning and dangerous monsters from another realm, teetering on the brink of collapse—until… Silvanus never expected to die at the peak of his glory. He was on stage one second, accepting his third consecutive Best Actor award. The next, he was dead—crushed by a falling glass stage light in a tragically ungraceful demise. But the worst part was yet to come. He didn't indeed die. Instead, he woke up in an entirely different world, one on the verge of being swallowed by darkness due to an overwhelming invasion of monstrous creatures. [Beep—Acting System activated! Greetings, my god. Please create your character and start collecting Acting Points!] Thus, humanity discovered that they now had gods, divine protectors who guided them in their battles against monsters… A god who feared everything yet could foresee the future. A narcissistic deity who commanded water and life itself. A depraved being who, despite his corruption, remained undefeated against even the strongest creatures. No one knew they were all the same person. "Worship me. Believe in me without end. And one day, I shall truly descend upon this world…" /// /// [Volume 2 - God felt emptiness—so He created a world. That world needed life, so He granted it rivers and trees. But the world should be more vibrant, and thus, God created the races... The Celestials, who proclaimed themselves God’s apostles, ruled the heavens and carried legends of a kingdom in the sky. Small in stature but great intellect, the Hobbits built an invincible mechanical empire. The Elves, who accumulated the wisdom of hundreds of thousands of years, possessed a civilisation that would never decay—masters of intellect, with legends claiming they could foresee the entire world's fate. The Undead, warriors who traded their lives for immortality. The Demons, actual monsters of the age, wielding the power to destroy all things—creatures who lived purely by their own nature. The Dragons, colossal beings of overwhelming might—existences none could dare violate. The Merfolk, rulers of the seas, are invincible within the ocean’s depths. And the Humans, the diligent honeybees of the world, endowed with an unending capacity for learning—destined to advance their own era eternally.] You can start reading from either Volume 1 or Volume 2.
