Edward Hill was an old man, content with his lot in life as a godfather and preparing for retirement when an unexpected ambush ruined his plans. Stepping through a portal of light was dangerous and foolhardy; stealing the destiny of a young man was tasteless. But when the choice was between that and death, he was willing to take the deal. Now stranded in a new world, alone and without support, surrounded by people treating him like a commodity, he must choose: toe the line, or once again create his own path. And then there is this mysterious system calling him a hero — what a ridiculous idea.

Nero has been transported to a world built on fantasy instead of physics — a society focused on self-improvement and cooperation, with competent administration and opinions based on rational argument. He's not prepared for any of it. While the world is big and full of characters, Nero would mostly prefer to ignore what's going on around him and focus on learning magic. Allies will assist him and mentors will guide him, but the leveling system he keeps trying to avoid turns out to be far more complex than it first appears. A slow-burn story following an internet troll with a heart of fool's gold, forced to grow up by circumstance and the people around him.

Some girls are reborn as chosen heroes. She was reborn as the thing heroes are sent to kill. Waking up with scales, claws, and the overwhelming urge to steal treasure wasn't exactly the second chance she'd hoped for — but Barjuchne, the last dragon, the legendary terror, is hers now. And she is done being small. Gold fuels her evolution. Gems sharpen her scales. Every level she climbs pulls her further from the frightened human she was and closer to something ancient, powerful, and magnificent. The world wants her destroyed? Let them come. There's just one thing nobody warned her about when reincarnating as a dragon: the princesses. She's collecting those too, now. Mostly by accident. Whether she's stumbling through stammered confessions or accidentally declaring war with a misread gesture, her hoard of remarkable suitors keeps growing — and somewhere between protecting her treasure and protecting them, the most terrifying thing imaginable is happening: they might be falling for her.

A new Dungeon comes into being beneath the ground of Nerian-Silex. Following its strange instincts and system, it expands, grows, and tests those who enter its domain. Yet something about this Dungeon is different — something it doesn't know itself, yet instantly noticeable to those beyond its border. That strangeness may be the key to breaking through the barrier of nine, or the spark that ignites a continent-spanning war. For now, though, it is busy carving out an underground castle and has little time to listen to the cacophony overhead.

Running on three days without sleep and sustained by coffee and looming bills, Liam stumbles face-to-face with a portal — and jumps through. The destination turns out to be Crystal Skylights, a universe of his own creation. Now Liam must confront that he is merely human in a world where gods walk the earth. His only edge is his knowledge of this universe — knowledge that makes him a prime target.

Walter's normal life is turned upside down when the human race is judged worthy of Ascension — granting powers beyond comprehension to those who complete Trials as an Aspirant. The Trials are run by otherworldly abominations who view humanity as little more than amusing playthings. Walter has been chosen by the Absolute Luck System and has infiltrated the Trials as a Lord Arbiter. The problem: he must now balance life as both an Aspirant and an Admin, and he's doomed if either side finds out he's not who he says he is. Navigating this double life with wit, smarts, and a little luck, Walter must survive long enough to become an Unwilling Eldritch Horror of Fortune.

A cyborg transhuman escapes her corporate indenture and, through unfathomably unlikely circumstances, ends up in a fantasy world full of unique magic, angry people with sharp implements, and the whole flavor-spectrum of divine entities. Hard-ish sci-fi meets hard-ish magic in a rational, character-driven story that explores dark themes — including slavery, speciesism, and questions of identity and consciousness — while remaining darkly funny and occasionally absurd.

Being drafted into a demon army wasn't on Hayden's bucket list. But when his soul is shoved into a human soldier on the eve of a new invasion, there's no appealing the decision. Around him, demons are excited and ready — for them, the invasion of Berlis, a classic sword-and-sorcery realm, promises a feast of souls and new growth. Hayden's human status puts him at the bottom of the totem pole, cannon fodder meant to die first. But as he plunges into the carnage, he discovers he was born for the madness.

Due to some unfortunate circumstances, Azalea has been unceremoniously thrown into the world of Pokemon. Sure, she can have a fun adventure — but this isn't the kid-friendly anime world she knows. Constant mortal danger is par for the course. A self-insert story about building a dream team while using meta knowledge to navigate a world that's far more dangerous than it looks.

The Great War ravaged the earth many years ago. In the years that followed, the world rebuilt by mixing machinery and magic into something new — great blimps belching steam above metal city-states that sprouted like weeds across the desert. Angel, a talented mage, scours the desert endlessly in search of lost knowledge. When it unexpectedly falls into his hands, he quickly realizes the world is far larger — and far more deadly — than he ever predicted. No amount of danger is going to keep Angel from seeking greater strength and claiming the greatest treasures the world has to offer.

Struck down in battle, a Hero and a Demon King meet their end at the same moment. As their souls linger on the edge of the afterlife, a mysterious force intervenes — merging their fragmented souls into a new being: Rusty, a living suit of armor. Affected by the memories and presence of both predecessors, Rusty embarks on his own quest. Will he seek revenge for the Hero's betrayal, fulfill the fallen Demon King's desires, or forge an entirely new path?

Waking up as a dungeon heart in a fantasy world you know nothing about would be bad enough. Doing it with only one chance to get things right makes it worse. The dungeon's new controller must figure out how to manage his growing domain while grappling with a disturbing power: his dungeon acquires minions by transforming sapient beings, leaving them mentally bound to his will. He does his best not to abuse that power — but the story explores what it means for both him and those who find themselves changed, in mind and body, by their new place in his dungeon.

The world is a wide, wide place — and that's without taking into account the many creatures that inhabit it. When a new Dungeon Core is born deep below the surface, it faces challenge after challenge in a world that is anything but welcoming. The only question is whether it is up to the challenge of surviving.

The gods are dead, killed by a summoned hero. Exiled from his goblin tribe, Stump finds himself in a world reeling from an isekai — deity corpses litter the landscape, their guts imbuing the world with magical power, and their killer has become the new god. Stump carves out a small home in the slums of a city locked in twilight, in the fungal graveyard of a murdered divine. There he harnesses light magic to illuminate a small corner of his darkened world and starts a mercenary company to piece together his fractured neighbourhood through quests big and small. But there are those who long for another hero and the destruction they bring, willing to stop at nothing to recreate the apocalypse of the past.

Erika may have been born lowly, but she knows she is destined for glory and greatness. Street rat, trash, orphan — these labels are mere fetters to be shattered. One step at a time, Erika will claim everything that is rightfully hers. And what the world cannot give her, she will take by force. A darker, grittier, and more realistic take on Pokémon with xianxia elements and a unique power system.

From indebted orphan to forced guide to decoy king, Jack has a lot on his plate. It isn't enough that there are murderous elves on the horizon, or a nation filled with sneering academics ready to topple the kingdom he is supposedly in charge of — in a few decades the world will end unless a bunch of maniacs designed to fight each other can somehow work together. What's a player to do without saves and retries on the highest difficulty: reality?

The gods are real and incorporated. Providence is a profitable global monopoly — but its chief executive is a corrupt authoritarian, the combined might of the divine powers ignores humanity's problems, and Helpdesk service is, frankly, terrible. In this corporate fantasy, it's up to history's most maligned immortals to step up and sort things out.

Among Hakon's people, strength is everything — weakness means death. When he finally completes the Rite, he expects at least a modest Ancient Power. Instead he awakens something his tribe scorns: a Power of the Mind called Enhanced Comprehension. To those who value brute force, Hakon is nothing. But he sees what they cannot — patterns, weaknesses, possibilities. As tribes stir and ancient grudges reignite, whispers spread of a prophesied Warlord born from the blood of his enemies. Hakon decides to become that man, claim his father's seat as chieftain, and unite the tribes — but first he must survive long enough to master his Power.

When isekai'd healer-turned-saint Eric Mercer dies watching his world crumble under a godlike titan, he expects peace or oblivion. Instead, he wakes up fifteen years in the past, summoned once more into the world of Elyndor — memories intact and the apocalypse inevitable. Stripped of his strength and starting again at level one, Eric must rebuild everything — alliances, power, and trust — before the end returns. Healing and protection won't be enough to stop the apocalypse. He must abandon the sanctity of his old magic and embrace something far darker. Every choice reshapes fate. And every decision draws him closer to redemption — or ruin.

Transmigrated into a fifteen-year-old farmer's body, the protagonist finds himself in a xianxia world before sects, before elders, before any of the usual structures — and without a System, a golden finger, or a cheat to help him along. Cultivation exists, but no one has mastered or systematized it. Warlords conscript farmers into meat grinders, and cultivators operate like weapons of mass destruction. Armed with knowledge of three hundred cultivation novels and a commitment to rational thinking, he must throw out every trope he ever read. No convenient cave with an ancient manual. No sect to join. Just a world that needs someone to introduce a little common sense — and build the institutions from scratch.
