Her situation worsens when a powerful snake beastman claims her as his mate and refuses to leave her side. As danger closes in from both the wildlands and the system itself, Shen Ningning must find a way to live in a world that demands strength—whether she is ready or not.

[Warning: Mature Content] Tags: Regression, Beastmen, Beauty, Monsters, Futuristic Doomsday, Storage Space In every era—be it an ancient dynasty or a modern nation—the collapse of the world has often been blamed on beauty. A single smile that toppled a city. A single face that ruined a kingdom. All hastened by a hero's obsession. But what if— What if, for some absurd and ill-fated reason, the end of the entire world began right after a girl’s plastic surgery? The 31st century. An era of advanced civilization and cutting-edge technology. Who could have imagined that such a future would be swallowed overnight by something wild, savage, and primitive? Seo Hyejin had lived what most would call a perfect life. She came from a powerful family. She possessed a naturally beautiful face. Someone so dazzling that people once crowned her the Nation’s Crush. And yet, the reason she chose to alter her face—to carve it, refine it, and replace what heaven had given her with something artificial— Was not vanity. Nor insecurity. It was a reason no one would ever think of. As if it was a curse she quickly wanted to get rid after regressing. Say, the world will rot and end by tomorrow. How could a sane person take care of appearances instead of stocking supplies? "Seo Yoojin... Do you also think your sister is crazy?" SY: ... Hmm. Good. *Thumbs up* (My future wife can't be bullied but fighting Noona also means courting death. At worst, I'll have to give up marriage to take of a tiger and dedicate my youth peeling shrimps. Ha... The youngest's life is woeful.)

I had a plan: blackmail my extremely powerful boss, Malachai Shaw, into marrying me to get back at my family. He needed a wife to secure his inheritance. I needed a man impressive enough to humiliate my cheating ex. It was a perfect, professional arrangement. Strictly business. Until that kiss in the museum and… everything after.  I accepted that he’s the head of a criminal empire. I don’t care if his family always looks like they’re on their way to a funeral. But why didn’t anyone tell me he’s a demon!?

Transmigrating into the DxD world, Sai Akuto awakened the Villainous Protagonist System. As long as he acts in ways befitting a villainous protagonist, he earns system rewards. Starting as the Red Dragon Emperor, Akuto steps onto the path of a villainous protagonist. Amano Yuuma: “Who just kisses someone right after they confess? And worse, I couldn’t even resist!” Rias: “Akuto is the boldest man I’ve ever met… he actually dared to sl*ep with me right in front of Grayfia.” ... Traveling through countless anime worlds, Akuto gathers retainers one by one, step by step building his own dimensional empire. Miyamoto Rei: “He didn’t even hesitate—just blew Houji’s head apart. I straight up pissed myself on the spot.” Akame: “What do you mean you ‘have a way’ to keep Esdeath off the battlefield for ten months?” Erica: “Never have I seen such shamelessness! The Witch of Sardinia gave him an inch and he climbed straight onto the bed.” Minamiya Natsuki: “The hell?! How did all the Blood Companions meant for the Fourth Progenitor, Nagisa, get stolen by you?!” ... DxD, Highschool of the Dead, Akame ga Kill, Campione, Strike the Blood, Jobless Reincarnation, Eminence in Shadow, Date A Live, Danmachi… Each world arc won’t drag on too long.

Aegon Targaryen was meant to become the Dragonbane, a broken king crowned in ashes, remembered only for the extinction of dragons and the slow decay of House Targaryen born of the Dance. But fate has erred. Armed with knowledge of what is yet to come, Aegon rises amid ruin: his mother’s enemies still draw breath, the Greens’ poison festers in court and council, and traitors, lords, and would-be kings circle like carrion crows. If House Targaryen is to survive, it cannot return to what it was. It must rise as it was always meant to be... unyielding, unchallenged, and forged in fire and blood. Note- This is a translation

0 Budget. -12 Points Deduction. A Squad of Rejects. And a Manager who sees the world as code. They said Kenji Sato lacked "aura." They called him a "data nerd" fit for a cubicle, not a dugout. They were wrong. Kenji possesses a secret weapon: [The Prism]. A neurological anomaly allows him to see reality as a stream of data. Muscle density, morale, injury risks, and tactical flaws float in the air like a game interface. When his desperate friend Emir buys the bankrupt Blackriver United, Kenji finally gets his stage. But this isn't just football. It’s a survival game. His squad? Mercenaries who only care about money. His solution? The K-Point System. "Score a goal? +500 Points. Miss a tackle? -200 Points. Reach the top of the leaderboard? Win a porsche." In a league dominated by money, Kenji doesn't rely on luck. He relies on the numbers. Let them laugh at the rusty stadium. By the end of the season, they won't be laughing. They will be calculating their survival chances.

Yusaku joins a Yu-Gi-Oh! playtest… and a flash of light later, he finds himself isekai’d—right into the game. This is a world where dueling rules all. There are native “locals,” and there are players from elsewhere the locals call “despicable outlanders.” Local A: “Trying to win with a Blue-Eyes deck? That build’s ancient… wait—why is your Blue-Eyes running a full ‘Sangen Summoning “C” + Spright’ package?!” Local B: “Do you know the pinnacle of Fusion—the limits of Branded? I’ll stop you before your Rank-… hey, what—why are you on Tearlaments this turn?! It was my turn!” Player A: “Ever heard of the Fourth Calamity? Watch what real power looks like—wait, what do you mean that deck isn’t even released yet?! Bro, stop, I was wrong!” Player B: “Weren’t players supposed to stomp NPCs? Why am I the one getting farmed?!” After this keeps happening for a while, Yusaku unknowingly collects a pile of titles— including but not limited to: Famous Fake-NPC Role-Player, Savior of Satellite, Veteran of the Six Summons, Guardian of the Tops, Player Harvest Reaper, Incorrigible Onee-san Chaser… (and 108 other titles omitted). (Reupload: Mainly focus in duels and duel spirits, there are some known characters but there are lot of OC duelists)

Jaeho Han's father was his hero. A man built like Hercules who worked multiple jobs to give his kids the education he never had. But after the twins were born, the workload became too much. His father's health deteriorated silently, refusing help, hiding his condition even from his wife. He died when Jaeho was thirteen, leaving behind a grief-stricken mother who could barely look at her children without drowning in guilt. She lasted four years before she disappeared. At seventeen, Jaeho became the sole guardian of his five-year-old twin sisters, Jia and Serin. He worked multiple jobs like his father before him, scraping by on scholarship and sheer willpower. School became a nightmare—bullied for being poor, for being an orphan, for being a year older than everyone else due to his late admission due to making sure his sisters' education came first. But he endured it all without fighting back, because one wrong move meant losing everything. The debt piled up. ₩737,500,000. Over $500,000. Loan sharks circling. Bills suffocating him. He smiled for his sisters every day, but at night, he was drowning. One morning, desperate and broken, he helped a recently divorced woman at his laundromat job. She couldn't pay but promised to refund him once her banking app stops acting up, so he transferred his last ₩50,000 to help pay for whatever it was she wanted. Hopefully, it would return with a nice tip. A cyan screen appeared in his peripherals.

Every won he spent on mature, lonely women came back multiplied His father told him that as long as you keep moving forward, things will work out. Jaeho's about to find out just how far forward he can go. --------- Content Tags → Smut / R18+ → Harem, Comedy, Slice of life → System-Elements → Slightly towards Netori [Mc stealing and using others wife] → No Yuri → No Netorase / Yaoi / BL → System + Worldbuilding Driven

Whispers Between Two Souls is a sweeping romance set in a world of luxury, ambition, and dangerous secrets. Trevor Hale is invisible to society—broke, underestimated, and fighting his way through the underbelly of the city with nothing but raw intelligence and relentless hunger. He believes wealth is earned, not inherited, and he is willing to sacrifice everything to rise. Fate intervenes the night he crosses paths with Emma Sterling. Emma is the enigmatic heiress and CEO of Elysium Parfums, a fragrance empire built on elegance and illusion. Though she lives surrounded by silk gowns, boardrooms, and flashing cameras, her heart remains untouched. Her closest ally is Lisa Monroe, her fiercely loyal best friend and personal assistant, who guards Emma's secrets and senses danger before it arrives. That danger wears a smile—Andrew Whitmore, Emma's powerful fiancé. To the world, he is perfection; behind closed doors, he is control, manipulation, and ambition disguised as love. As Trevor climbs from obscurity into influence through bold risks and a dangerous alliance with venture capitalist Victor Langford, his growing success brings him face-to-face with Emma again—and again. Their connection is instant, forbidden, and impossible to silence. In whispered moments stolen from glittering galas and shadowed penthouses, two souls recognize each other. But in a world ruled by money and power, love is a threat.

Once a common human, thrown into the ancient world of the Higher Vampires as one of the very first of this illustrious and dangerous species, and after almost an eternity passes, the Convergence of the Stars is upon him. But will he just accept being dragged around by the cosmic forces of a celestial cataclysm? Follow the story of an ancient Higher Vampire reborn into the world of The Vampire Diaries. Witness his growth and how his existence shifts the whole supernatural ecosystem. The ultimate apex-predator against magic and curses, werewolves, vampires, and witches. Though the world is not as simple as he once thought. Intricate political games, various vampiric bloodlines, diverse wolven lineages, and so much more. [WARNINGS: 1ST: Regarding 'The Vampire Diaries' this sticks STRICTLY to the SHOW, I will not take the books into account as I have not read them. KEEP THAT IN MIND! 2ND: The main character gets REBORN (like the title says) early in the story, the phase before that is to give context to his origins and how a HIGHER VAMPIRE got into TVD and didn't just simply pop up in there. 3RD: While what happened in his rebirth can be considerad a 'nerf' it is NOT a nerf. Higher Vampires grow stronger as they age, if I had simply popped him into the world it would take MILLENIA for him to grow strong, rather than a few years. 4TH: I have taken many creative liberties during the writing of this book, I have kept it all as realistic as I possibly can, so no need to worry about nonsensical stuff happening.] (I do not own anything in this fanfic besides my original characters and customized backgrounds and settings for the world. This is a work of love for the original stories and an intricate what-if scenario.) Hope you guys enjoy the story!

In a world where every person is born with a unique skill, the ultimate goal is to nurture that skill until they attain God-level power. ​Characters are officially ranked from weakest to strongest using the following hierarchy: ​Level D ​Level C ​Level B ​Level A ​Level S ​Legendary ​Every individual begins at Level D from birth and gradually climbs upwards. However, on extremely rare occasions, an individual can be born with Level C stats, a phenomenon so rare that only five such births have ever been recorded in history. ​The stat ranges correspond to these levels: D 10 to 90 C 100 to 990 B 1,000 to 9,999 A 10,000 to 99,000 S 99,000+ to 100,000 Those who surpass the absolute limit of their innate skill ascend to the Legendary rank. These individuals achieve the ultimate expression of their power by creating a Soul Palace—a personal realm or domain unique to their perfected skill. ​Though a Level S figure poses a significant threat to an entire planet, the power of the Legendary far eclipses this, cementing their status as true Gods. Only fourteen Legendary figures are known to exist across the world, each one said to possess the capability to destroy the universe. ​The story begins with a child named Leon. From the moment of his birth, Leon was an anomaly, possessing a stat reading that simply displayed: NULL. ​In this world, only those who own a stat reading can perceive it, or through the use of a specially designed reading machine. Every machine registered his stats as "NULL," leading the administration to conclude his power was simply too low to register. But Leon knew the truth: he was the only one who could see his genuine, baffling stats. ​Adding to the mystery, Leon could also see a woman dressed in a maid uniform. She was only visible to him—unless he specifically willed her to be seen by another. She attends to all his desires and needs, her existence a complete mystery to him. While she holds the answers to his origins, she is forbidden from revealing them. ​While everyone else is obsessed with the climb—leveling up and advancing their skill,Leon is obsessed with self-discovery. He needs to understand why he is different, why he is the only anomaly in a world built on quantifiable power. ​"Who am I, and what the hell is this stat?" Leon muttered, staring at the midnight sky from his window, the enigmatic maid standing silently behind him. ​Note to the reader: If you're into fantasy, high-stakes powers, mysterious leveling systems, and a main character unlocking a hidden destiny, this is the story for you.

Napoleon Bonaparte shaped Europe with wars, treaties, and new laws. His name filled maps, thrones, and textbooks. His son had none of that. Born in a palace, raised behind guarded walls, he never commanded armies or held power. He lived under supervision, watched by diplomats, used as a symbol, forgotten by history. The father became an emperor. The son became a rumor. A modern engineer opens his eyes in a dim royal nursery in 1811 Paris. Turns out, he was reincarnated as Napoleon the Second. And he knew the fate of the child of Napoleon, about his short-lived life, or if there was a life for him at all. Refusing this fate, he would alter the course of history using his modern knowledge in history, politics, and science.
