Rise of the Lord

Thunder Surfer

C54/100
Gerald, born a Viscount's son, spent most of his life since age six as an enemy Duke's "ward" — nothing short of a hostage. Until a shocking letter arrived requesting that he be sent back to inherit his father's territory and title. Now he must return and rule the ruin that is his family's lands. Bandits roam, enemies leer, conspiracies brew, and wars rage. Gerald must rise with his house from the ashes.

Otherworldly - Between the Dusk and Dawn

alloralee

C54/100
Eunora Dawn is born a noble in the kingdom of Maeve. On her 8th birthday, when she unlocks the System, memories of her past life as a strong-willed, fulfilled woman flood her mind and all but overwrite her personality. Filled with existential dread and grief over losing her past loved ones, she must find something she cares about — anything — to get her out of bed. Sent across Maeve as an exile, Nora must rein in her anger at her family and the Gods, or risk losing herself again. Armed with a Rare Class and a depth of life experience, she faces cursed forests, her own body betraying her, and the slow work of growing into who she wants to be. A slow-paced, character-driven isekai following one woman's second chance at life in a world that keeps testing her.

The Dark Summoner

Andrei Tkachev

C53/100
When you're the sole surviving noble of a junior lineage, don't expect much of a future — or so some might think. Not Gregor. The way he sees it, being the last of a line means he can dispense with social niceties and do exactly what he wants. And if any unwelcome visitors have a problem with that, this summoner's got one or two surprises for them.

Dragon Core: The Dragon-Girl Evolution & Princess-Collecting Dungeon Core Isekai

D.M. Rhodes (Razzmatazz)

C53/100
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.

The Turning

Kenny King

C53/100
About four weeks ago the world simply turned. One day: iPhones, Mickey Mouse, hamburgers. The next: magic and monsters. And humans became players — with levels, items, and classes. Pretty ironic considering how many times parents told their kids to quit gaming and experience real life. Then real life grabbed everyone by the throat, and it was the gamers who were prepared. A story about a guy, his best friend, a loyal golden retriever, a little girl, and her beloved cat — plus copious amounts of gore, legendary weapons, and a lich king who needed slaying.

It's the end of the world, and all Dave wanted was to eat his eggs in peace. Thanks to a talking bird, he's been transported to another universe with only a few years to either grow powerful enough on his own to save his home, or find someone who can help him do it. With new friends by his side, Dave pushes against a System that keeps nudging him toward dangerous experiments, working to understand the rules of his new world before time runs out.

Veos, The Story of a Dungeon

V_Storm

C53/100
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.

Forced to venture on desperate quests to find one another, mother and daughter each embark on magical adventures across a continent rife with power struggles, where ancient kingdoms and guilds scramble to adapt to the sudden arrival of magic. A hardware engineer by trade, Sloane must use skills learned over a long career to craft any edge she can against beings who have thrived using weapons long since obsolete on Earth.

Until death? (Old Version)

Andur

C52/100
Ever been a god? The protagonist was — until death and a divine tribunal sent him packing. Apparently the other gods took issue with his faith being the only true one, and the Apocalypse (admittedly his fault, if unintentional) did not help his case. Now condemned to a "vacation" as punishment, he must navigate existence in a new form in a world far removed from his former divine station.

Library System Reset

K.T. Hanna

C52/100
The Library of Everywhere once stood as a beacon of magic and power. For 500 years, it has been broken. Quinn can barely handle her own life, but when the Library discovers her compatible magical signature, she becomes the sole potential Librarian — and the weight of the universe falls on her shoulders. Before things can be quiet and peaceful, she must battle engorged bookworms, repair centuries of damage, figure out why there's been no Librarian for five hundred years, and begin collecting the Library's 18,042 overdue books. There will be a helluva lot of late fees to process.

First Line of Defense

BenjaminKerei

C52/100
Earth was invaded, conquered, and humanity was subjugated — 400,000,000 people culled in a second, without any chance to fight back. The Peacekeepers claim to be benevolent: they don't want to rule Earth, they just want humanity to stop playing around with AI and genetics. Willing or unwilling, Morgan and the rest of humanity are now members of the Collective. And like every species in the Collective, they have to learn to play the Game. When an AI offers you the opportunity to play the greatest tower-defense game the universe has ever created, you accept — and figure out the rules for survival later. Morgan certainly thinks so. But when aliens are attacking your station and giant six-eyed rats are eating your robotic face, doubts start to creep in.

Integrated Universe

David J. VanBergen Jr.

C52/100
It started as an average day. Jeremiah was minding his own business when Earth was forcefully assimilated into the Integrated Universe. All diseases were cured, the aging process was halted, and everyone gained access to near-unlimited power — with one problem: the planet is now filled with terrible monsters. When Jeremiah miraculously survives an encounter with a deadly creature, he becomes the first person on Earth to earn Elite status and is awarded his own personal trainer. Now the only things standing between him and ultimate power are a planet full of terrifying monsters and ambitious humans. It's a race to become King of the World.

Farming Livia

Xander Boyce

C52/100
Matt is running from a life he no longer wants, and he has found a solution: logging into the newest game, Livia, where he gains chances he cannot get anywhere else. He heads to the frontier town of Tallrock and, as soon as he gains his class, the newly minted Cycle Mage has one goal — farming. Given a starting parcel of virgin land, Kastigan must decide what to grow, what animals to raise, and who to hire — all while surviving in wild monster-infested territory, dealing with a Legion Commander who hates him for no apparent reason, and uncovering lost relics from a forgotten time.

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?

The Heart Grows

Damaged

C52/100
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.

Blade & Sheath is a fully immersive VRMMORPG where some players complete quests and fight monsters — and then there's Josh. He needs the money, so when he gets a job as a town builder, he can't believe his luck. The land is untamed, he starts with no skills and no resources, and two fellow builders are his only help. Together they'll build Blade's Rest — a haven for weary adventurers to relax after a day of questing. A cozy, slice-of-life town-building LitRPG where fighting isn't the only way to level up.

Not (Just) a Mage Lord Isekai

Draith

C51/100
Perry liked being a mechanic. Now he's a mage lord. When Perry is transported into the body of a young noble with newfound magical powers, he must choose between surviving on the Front — a mystical battleground with sky-high mortality — or pledging an oath to become a Magus Dominus. He chooses the title, but the responsibilities are punishing: he must develop and protect a domain in the hostile north with a shaky grasp on magic, a loyal servant, and a tempestuous Storm mage half-sister. His most potent advantage turns out to be his experience from Earth — and his mindset as a mechanic.

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.

The Emperor Without An Empire

Drew Royston

C51/100
They stole his empire, his cultivation, even his name. Their mistake was leaving him alive. Now going by Shen Taros, he carries seven hundred years of experience in an eighteen-year-old body with the spiritual capacity of wet parchment. A god-like cultivator will hunt him within the year. In the meantime, he is opening meridians one painful breath at a time, learning alchemy from a terrifying mistress, and picking entirely avoidable fights with powerful people who consider themselves beyond justice. Between all of that, working in a decrepit fish warehouse, and dodging loan sharks, he is making remarkable progress. They wanted this Emperor permanently retired. He intends to disappoint them.
