Dabu's life has been far from easy. Born with a crippling lung illness, he has never been as strong as his father or brother, both of whom disappeared after attempting to challenge the Trials of Ancients. In the wake of the Tyrant King's war, his village has fallen under the control of the Purus, a vicious gang of magically enhanced cutthroats.
The Trials offer the promise of power to any who can clear them, but Dabu has been forbidden from entering. After a violent encounter leaves his family in danger, he faces a difficult choice — leave to challenge the Trials or stay and risk starvation.
The Trials are monstrously difficult, filled with dangerous beasts, deadly obstacles, and tribes of challengers who control the areas within. But if he can make it out alive, Dabu will gain the power he needs to drive the Purus from his home.

Ancient powers are about to collide. The world is on the verge of changing, and all Levy wanted was to start leveling. Stuck with a specialization mostly used for buffing in towns for coin, Levy doesn't see it as a disadvantage — even if everyone else does. He expected to take the road most traveled, but it looks like he'll have to carve his own path and be the first enchanter to reach max level.
First he'd better learn everything he can about the system of mana that seems to have a grudge against mankind — and may even have something to do with the burgeoning war.
The battle against the Kobar Empire was utterly lost, and as Luca lay dying a strange blue screen appeared: he had the aptitude to be a Player, and if he accepted, the game would reset. He accepted — and the reset went wrong, leaving him as only a partial player: Active Players: 0.4.
Luca is neither clever nor strong. He will die. A lot. But with enough resets, he'll learn and grow. A slow-burning, character-driven story about an underdog using time-loop deaths to inch toward something better.
Sergeant William Remington, a decorated Coalition Marine, is displaced by a lazy celestial being's mistake and placed into a new body in an unknown world. His interstellar life aboard the Valkyrie is gone, replaced by a wild west fantasy setting full of magic, skills, monsters, and ancient revolvers.
Skeptical but driven to survive, Will falls back on what he knows — weapons and hunting down criminals — now with the added challenge of monsters. He's no elite soldier, just a grunt with experience, learning to adapt to a world that operates by entirely different rules.

This is the story of a child who should be dead — for nothing survives what she fled. She escaped true horror and was rescued through a single extended arm, an act that broke prophecies and shattered Truth.
Now she faces the grim reality of survival: not just staying alive, but learning to live in a world she was never meant to inhabit. It is a world of fantasy, where magic exists and marvelous creatures roam the lands — but the reality is neither fantastical nor forgiving. It is an Empire built on the ashes of war, ruled by the Imperatrix, where power belongs to the wealthy and the ruthless.
Fantasy collides with the modern world in an epic struggle for power and survival. An emperor born from divinity and a dragon harbors aspirations for godhood. In a twisted act of ambition, he orchestrates a deceitful pact with a devil and sets in motion a quest to harness unclaimed souls from another realm.
His pathway to divine ascent takes an unexpected turn when a rift opens in Ohio, bringing him face-to-face with a resilient human community unprepared to bow to a new deity. As magic clashes with machinery in the skies and fields of Ohio, alliances are tested, friendships forged, and the true cost of ambition laid bare.
Demon King Erizen thought all Heroes were insane. For one thousand years he ruled the continent of Thalmyra while lunatic bands of Heroic Chosen Ones tried and failed to end his reign — until a random peasant girl from a back-end village manifested the Holy Sword, led a Crusade to his door, and ended his life before dying herself seconds later.
As he died alongside the smiling Heroine, Erizen could not understand: why did heroes not care for their lives? What gave them such suicidal strength? When the System offers him reincarnation, he makes the only choice that makes sense — he will reincarnate not as a Demon King, but as a Hero.
If even a peasant's heroism was enough strength to kill him, then this heroic Demon King vows to become nothing but the strongest.
She killed all the malevolent gods, and now she deserves a break. That's what Godkiller Shallies planned when she started running a tavern to fulfill a promise to an old friend.
What was supposed to be a humble establishment for common folk quickly morphs into a gathering hub for the new generation of heroes waiting to be trained. Shallies knows peace will never last and that the gods will never truly stay dead — so she trains these new heroes, preparing them for the next Divine War.
One meal at a time.

In a cosmos fractured into human subspecies — shaped by extreme worlds and locked into brutal caste and race-purity hierarchies — an RPG-based System reigns supreme. Its second law forbids all automation: every machine, every spell, every tool must be guided by a living hand.

Hurled onto an Earth-like planet full of grass, clouds, and color he has never seen, he must heed the ping of system messages, hunt and be hunted, and level up in a place built to test him. The planet-side survival arc gives way, in time, to the spacefaring world of feudal space pirates that defines his fate.

Nox is an alchemist by trade, but he dreams of magehood. Fate dealt him unfavorable cards, yet he has learned to compensate with scholarly pursuits, tenacity, and sheer grit — qualities that catch the attention of Woodson University's scouts.
The Department of Dungeon Studies values the mind and its ability to overcome all limitations. After all, they stripped the divine of their titles, turning gods into Dungeon Lords and their domains into Dungeons. The department will give Nox the tools to achieve his ambitions, and his limitations will push him to the forefront of arcane discovery.
More immediate challenges remain, though. Nox lacks the means to pay the university's ridiculous tuition. Only alchemy and smart business deals will earn him the hundreds of gold coins he needs.
A tired mage drops something. A flickering soul picks it up. Earth-Bet will never be the same again.
A World Rune falls into unexpected hands through OC reincarnation — and what follows promises to reshape an entire world.

The Protagonist's Sister Is Actually The Strongest

A struggling author transmigrates into the world of Solo Player, the massively popular novel she read to improve her craft. She doesn't become the protagonist or a villain. She becomes the protagonist's sister — the most worthless character in the story, a burden universally hated by readers, and someone fated to die no matter what path she takes.
Armed with full knowledge of the story's events, she has one goal: not only to survive, but to surpass every limit and rewrite the terrible ending. Her ridiculously overprotective brother — the world's strongest solo player — is the main obstacle. The Constellations watching from above are another problem entirely, bombarding her with gifts and sponsorships as though she's a top-tier celebrity streamer.
In a world where monsters inflict violence and terror as a part of daily life, only those endowed with extraordinary powers can stand against them. For Charlene Devardem, the thought of becoming an essentia magician — one of those gifted few — was never something she expected.
Now that the opportunity dangles in front of her, she finds that she wants it. Not for the heroism, the fame, or even to follow in the footsteps of her two prodigy brothers. Charlene wants it simply because magic makes people beautiful.
She will find that these abilities are more than she knew, that people in this world are not kind or simple, and that she will have to change if she is to survive.

Her mother a Spellblade, her father a Talismartist — so why did Astrid have to be a Warrior? Inspired by her mother's tales of defending Humanity's Bulwark, she sets out to become a delver in the Dungeon, earning enough levels and experience to protect her borders and countrymen.
Her plan didn't work out, and now she's all alone — no planned allies, no family support. With just her skills and armor, and not a lick of magic to her name, Astrid Warrior intends to show the world exactly what a nonmagical fighter can do.
Bringing rest to the unquiet dead is not an easy task. It requires compassion, wisdom, patience, strength of arms, and suicidal courage — qualities Paladin Cole, a warrior sworn to the god of death, possesses in full.
Surviving beneath the shadow of undeath takes a different set of virtues: intelligence, caution, determination, and the occasional moment of extreme daring. Natalie Striga, a barmaid raised under the vampires' boot in the mountain town of Glockmire, knows these truths well.
When Cole arrives tasked with putting the undead to rest, events push him and Natalie together as hidden schemes among the vampire nobility threaten to boil over into disaster. As they unravel a series of mysteries, Natalie slowly realizes there is much more to the world than Glockmire — and much more to Cole than meets the eye.
Awakening somewhere completely foreign, with no memory of how or why, a new consciousness finds itself flooded with biological knowledge — how life forms adapt, how cells divide and heal, the microscopic patterns underlying all living things. This strange existence as a hive mind is both a gift and a burden: seeing through countless eyes, feeling through countless senses, understanding each creature within its domain as an extension of itself.
In the sequel, reborn into a world where war is the only memory, the hive mind fights, bleeds, dies, and rises again — carrying every lesson from the drones it controls. Having crushed the dregs of the Triumvirate, it now prepares for the greater storm to come.
