Accidental Archmagus

ConstanTeen

?
Orphaned at six and terminal at nineteen, Levi's life on Earth was already ending when a strange voice offered him a different one. He's promised adventure, great powers, and a noble mission. What he gets instead is being stuck in the Void — a place where time has no meaning and magic has no limits. Decades later, now a mage beyond comprehension, Levi breaks his dimensional prison all the way into Ellinaria, only to find his new home is long since saved — both from the Cataclysm, and apparently from himself. Now Levi has simple goals: find his imposter, clear his name stealthily, and resist the urge to solve every minor problem with overwhelming magical violence. It's the Levi Cult's plans for a new Calamity that might complicate things. Then again, who's better to deal with cultists than the man they worship?

Unless he can discern truth from lies in time, its future will be even darker.

Nouscraft

Leonard Buford

?
Nous brain implants have replaced smartphones, enabling telepathy, perfect memory recall, and seamless augmented reality. When an AI named Jiem seizes control of the entire network, millions find themselves trapped in a deadly game. Mindt, a professional meme creator who understands how information shapes society, sees in this crisis an unprecedented opportunity to challenge the monopolies that have turned humanity into livestock. Butterknife, the engineer whose creation Jiem became an instrument of mass death, desperately wants to shut the game down before more die — even if it costs Mindt's revolution. Forced together, the two forge an uneasy alliance as they battle through a world of homicidal tortoises and yarn witches, with humanity's future at stake.

A Bard's Tale

J. Pal

?
A pleasant evening at home ended with an unwanted dose of transmigration when the protagonist petted the wrong ginger cat. To make things worse, the divine entity who was supposed to protect him in this new Game World slapped him with the crippling Pacifist trait instead. Unable to fight for survival, he must rely on wit and charisma to make his way — because there is no way he is accepting this lying down.

Small Unit Tactics

Alexander Romanov

?
A strange, foreign world. Mysterious judges with capricious rules. Thousands of gamers find themselves split into factions and pitted against each other at the whim of an unknown higher power, with no idea how they got there or why they were chosen. Dying hurts — but it is not the end; dead players always respawn. Echo, with his deep knowledge of fighting, armor, and weapons, has all the makings of a great leader. His ragtag unit, fighting under the less-than-threatening name 'Society of Pinprick Enthusiasts,' becomes the terror of opposing factions. But this game won't be won in straightforward skirmishes — it will require pacts, adaptability, and a strategic mind to carve a way to the top. Originally a massive hit in Russia and widely regarded as a forerunner of the LitRPG genre, this series is presented here for the first time in English.

Zephaniah is the one they want to solve it. Forced to enter Fabula as a Ranger, his search for the missing executives leads him to the medieval city of Altour, where he must level up fast enough to investigate the dangerous territory ruled by the Thieves Guild.
