Magic Murder Cube Marine

Alex Karne (TheDeliciousMeats)

A79/100
Francis Francis Francis the 3rd was one hell of a Marine. He died doing what he loved. After being vaporized in the line of duty, Francis is transported to a new world full of gods and magic. Too bad Hades is trying to kill him for declining a job offer and the System holds a grudge for what happened during character creation. At least his new patron deity seems nice. Armed with nothing but his lucky pink booty shorts, a pair of matching flip flops, and nineteen years of Marine Corps experience, Francis must find a way home to his fellow grunts — or be listed as KIA forever.

A79/100
Cynthia doesn't quite get him. He knows things he shouldn't, doesn't know things he should, and is definitely not somebody she thought she'd end up journeying with. Really, it was just his Buneary that was way too cute to leave behind. An OC-insert fic told from a young Cynthia's point of view.

Path of the Deathless

OstensibleMammal

A79/100
Whatever kills Shiv only makes him stronger. An outcast in his town, considered an unholy omen, Shiv has spent years fruitlessly hunting monsters on his own — the System seems to spurn him and the authorities refuse to grant him a Path. When his town is attacked and Shiv is murdered in combat, he finds himself bestowed with a Unique Path possessed by no one else: the Path of the Deathless. Resurrecting upon death, he is cast into the Abyss. In that dark and wondrous place, he is finally free to chart his own destiny — if he can survive its countless dangers. In a world that stands against him, death is not the end. For Shiv, it's just another source of power.

After being killed, a somewhat intellectually and empathically disadvantaged young mage wakes up just in time for the start of semester exams. He has been marked with the brand of time — cursed to return upon every death until a coming calamity is prevented. If only he could listen to his survival instinct long enough to find out that a calamity was even coming.

Immortality Starts with Generosity

Plutus

A79/100
A lost soul from Earth transmigrates into a world of cultivation and finds himself in the body of a playboy noble who is wasting his life. He has no memories of being this person, cannot let anyone know he's not the same individual, and is immediately entangled in a conspiracy involving the downfall of a prominent young genius.

Evil to Eden: Turning a Haunted Castle into a Bed and Breakfast

Tater Prince

A78/100
Gideon's life is going nowhere fast until a letter arrives telling him he's inherited a castle from a distant great-uncle he never knew. The only problem: his ancestor isn't dead, he's undead, and the castle is falling apart. When Gideon realizes the former evil lair sits along an important route through a treacherous stretch of mountains, he gets a new idea: instead of keeping people out, maybe it's time to invite them in. With a grumpy undead mentor trapped in a magic mirror, an animated suit of armor, and skeletons learning to make pancakes, Gideon learns new magic and levels up — one cozy renovation at a time.

Discount Dan's Backroom Bargains

James Hunter

A78/100
Dan has accidentally 'noclipped' into the Backrooms — a bizarro extra-dimensional world cobbled together from twisted carnivals, abandoned shopping malls, janky laundromats, and condemned insane asylums, overrun with horrific nightmare creatures known as the Dwellers. No one ever gets out. If Dan wants to survive the week, he's going to need to harness the strange game-like magic of the Backrooms, make some very sketchy allies, and carve out a little safe haven to call his own — and fast, because the Flayed Monarch of the 999th floor has marked him for death.

The Snake Report

wercwercwerc

A78/100
When life ends, many believe a soul is judged — warriors go to Valhalla, saints to heaven, and evil-doers to hell. But what about someone who doesn't fall into any of those categories? Some of them end up reincarnated as a tiny snake. This is the story of one such soul: a winding path through a fantasy world toward something like existential redemption, told with comedy and heart.

Heretical Fishing: A Cozy Guide to Annoying the Cults, Outsmarting the Fish, and Alienating Oneself

Haylock

A78/100
When summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would strap on their boots and get ready for their stats to start climbing. But Fischer isn't like most MCs — he doesn't want to be a hero at all. Fame, fortune, power? He had enough of all that in his old life. Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal within scritching distance is more his speed. Unfortunately, cosmic forces rarely care for mortal feelings. He's hounded on all sides by inept cults, conspiring nobles, and magical misunderstandings — and even his dutiful pet crab is firing energy blades like an anime antagonist.

Beware the Trickster

Mangowo

A78/100
Life was perfect: naps in sunbeams, stolen snacks, and expertly timed accidents to torment her favorite human. So when licking a strangely alluring gemstone suddenly flooded her fuzzy head with memories of her former human existence, Clover — now a fox — simply filed it under "things to not give a damn about" and went back to napping. Fate had other plans. When the curtain of her pampered ignorance was ripped aside, revealing a world steeped in ancient horrors, eldritch hungers, and flesh-warping occult progression, she reacted with remarkable calm. Because the real horror was anything threatening her nap-snack-torment equilibrium. Now this newly enlightened vulpine has a simple goal: get stronger — not for glory, but purely to achieve peace through overwhelming power.

Dropship Cultivation - Dao of Delivery

JollyJupiter

A78/100
Lee Song always dreamt of becoming a proud cultivator — roaming the plains on horseback, fighting villains, righting wrongs. But during his initiation ritual, a terrible mishap brings him face to face with something even more frightening than an Eldritch Great One: a Canadian. With his plans for a life of righteous fame in jeopardy, Song must find his way in a world that isn't quite what he expected. New friends, new places, new food — and a new destiny, apparently in mail delivery. A cozy coming-of-age cultivation story blended with Lovecraftian themes, set in a world local to the protagonist.

Arthurian Cultivation

BenBurch

A77/100
An Arthurian legend, Fae lore, and cultivation mash-up. Taliesin had one plan: escape the Harkley family, dodge their blood curse, and live a quiet life far from trouble. What he got instead was death (briefly), an arranged marriage gone wrong (knives were involved), and a volatile new power — the dreaded death glamour. Armed with his magical lute, a dry sense of humour, and a loyal but chaotic group of Knights, he's determined to carve out a life as a bard in a dangerous world. But political intrigue, ancient prophecies, and a Divine Cultivator conspiracy all come calling. Set in a Europe-based cultivation world where Ki is Glamour and connected to the Fae realm, the story follows a competent but decidedly non-overpowered MC whose progression stems from effort, reflection, and the occasional death.

With an ever-growing family of mischievous sisters to babysit, Emily tries to stay under the radar — even as her reluctant "evil empire" grows larger than she ever intended.

The Riyria Chronicles

MichaelJSullivan

A77/100
Royce Melborn, a cynical ex-assassin, and Hadrian Blackwater, an idealistic ex-mercenary, couldn't be more different — but desperate times make for strange partnerships, and sometimes the best friendships are bound by blood. The three volumes posted here follow the rogues-for-hire duo known as Riyria through a series of increasingly dangerous jobs: foiling the assassination of a mysterious noblewoman in an ancient corner of the world; tracking a wealthy baron's missing daughter through the mist-filled streets of a city full of old-world secrets; and racing to stop a disgruntled master craftsman from obliterating the legendary towers of Drumindor. Witty, action-driven, and built on the chemistry between its two leads, these standalone adventures reward both new readers and fans of the broader Riyria world.

Bainshie

Terrans are not the strongest species in the universe. They are not the fastest. They are most definitely not the smartest. But Terrans are the loneliest — willing to befriend anything that moves and several things that don't. After humanity nearly made themselves extinct with a "Terran brand oopsie," billions of Terrans awaken from stasis and set themselves upon a galaxy teeming with alien life, each writing their own story among the stars. Stories of compassion, anger, revenge, and justice. But mostly stories of Terrans looking for the one thing all beings desire: friendship in a lonely universe.

The Unconventional Heroes

L. G. Estrella

A77/100
Timothy Walter Bolton — Timmy — has spent most of his life as a necromancer. When his latest creation, a zombie hydra-dragon-bear, tries to eat him, he decides it might be time for a less dangerous career. He is a wanted criminal with powerful enemies and a bone to pick with the Everton Council of Mages. Hope arrives in the form of a new law: war is coming to Everton, and the Council is desperate. In exchange for help, Timmy might earn a pardon. To get it, he must assemble a group of unconventional heroes — most of whom want nothing more than to mangle him. His team includes an obnoxious apprentice, a bumbling bureaucrat, and an elf who is basically the bogeyman. Wonderful.
