Noah, an omega hated by his own family, fought his way into a prestigious university for geniuses. To pay his tuition, he worked himself to the bone… only for his elder brother to steal every coin he saved. Noah followed him to a luxury hotel to retrieve the money, but Noah walked straight into a trap. His brother had planned to sell him to three powerful men. Cornered and drugged, Noah used nothing but courage and wit to escape— but he ran straight from the frying pan into the fire. Because the man he crashed into was stronger, colder, and infinitely more dangerous… and Noah had no idea he was the Alpha President of Wesnot Country. --- Adam Reynolds, the iron-blooded Alpha President, was on a diplomatic visit when his rut unexpectedly broke through. With no medicine, he was rushed to a nearby hotel suite to suppress it. He intended to endure the pain alone— until a sweet, irresistible omega pheromone drifted past his door. Instinct snapped. He dragged the omega inside… and lost control. --- When Adam learned the next morning that the omega he touched was a civilian student, he prepared to at least make up for what he had done, quietly. But Noah was not the fragile omega everyone assumed. The next day, headlines exploded across the nation: “President of Wesnot accused of forcing himself on a young omega!” To protect himself—Adam is left with only one choice: Marry the scheming little omega who had exposed him.

In her previous life, Han Ruochen was tricked into marriage and was forcibly made the wife of the foolish brother of her husband. She failed to escape, and her legs were broken by her cousin, Han Ziyan, who not only stole her husband but her destiny. She thought that after giving birth to a son and a daughter for the fool, she would be allowed to leave, but unfortunately, fate had other plans. She was killed by her foolish husband, who beat her up until she died, and her entire family was razed by Han Ziyan, whom they had kindly adopted. Han Ruochen hated Han Ziyan to the point that she couldn’t even close her eyes even when she died. However, when she opened her eyes, she was reborn in the nineties, before she lost everything. Armed with the knowledge of her previous life, Han Ruochen started to guard against Han Ziyan and her mother, Meng Yunhan, for she knew that Han Ziyan wasn’t her cousin but her mother’s illegitimate child! And the two of them were determined to snatch her father’s fortune and ruin her siblings to fill the pit made by Han Ziyan’s biological father. But by a stroke of luck, Han Ruochen gained a ‘Golden Finger’. Not only did her strength increase by leaps and bounds, but the sea also became her golden fishing ground.

With the money and strength, she straightened her siblings and made them walk on the righteous path, where they started to respect the elders and care for the young. Thefts? Corruption? What was that? Come here and let your sister straighten you up with her fishing rod!

“Unlucky” would be the nice way to describe Lucas’ luck. He wasn’t just down bad. He was practically cursed. As someone who never asked to exist, he’s had to experience medical torture, imprisonment, and eventually death. And that was just his first life. Then, just as he thought of escaping his fate, he transmigrates into the body of the Empire’s most useless Flower Vase. Great, now he should have status, wealth, and beauty, right? Wrong. Because his new body, Young Lord Luca Kyros, was a vegetable. And what’s worse was that no one else seemed to know the truth. To everyone else, he was just your typical rebellious heir. He wouldn’t have minded that. He was used to being called a harlot or similar names for being a defective Guide. But the problem was he woke up right smack in the middle of the Royal Military Academy’s Assessment test. And his double body, the one who should be attending school, perished in an ambush. So now, he’s forced to resolve his existential crisis while attending a school he never even enrolled in. He’ll have to conquer his flimsy body, his brooding roommate, and his picky-eater “dungeon”—all that on top of surviving impending doom. Someone definitely needs a miracle.

Bound together by a mysterious Soul Sync System, Laurel and Ling Xuan must learn to share one body and survive the end of the world. With her grandfather’s Yin-Yang necklace as the key, Laurel unlocks strength she never had in her past life. While she wants justice and a fresh start, Ling Xuan wants power and dominance. As chaos spreads, secrets unravel and enemies rise. Laurel is no longer the soft-hearted girl they once betrayed. She’s rising from the ashes, stronger, smarter, and far from alone. This time, she will survive. No matter the cost.

[WARNING: R-18 | Contains Adult content, suggestive and implied explicit scenes] I died… and then found myself standing in a complete void, outside time and space, face to face with an all-powerful entity who claimed to oversee infinite realities beyond existence itself. "I wish to grant you a second chance at life" He said. "I will reincarnate you into a reality where you may indulge in all your moral and immoral desires." Honestly, it was a no-brainer. I took the offer right away. Why would anyone in my place say no? It was either this… or complete erasure of my soul. "Since I find your soul… interesting, I shall grant you five wishes to carry into your next life." And just like that, my reincarnation began. I awakened in a world exactly as promised, a reality where every craving could become real. Power, pleasure, adventure, danger, love, war, monsters, demons, dragons, forbidden delights, twisted fantasies, impossible dreams… everything existed here. A world where I could become anything. A world where nothing was off limits. And this time… I intended to live exactly as I desired. --- Additional Tags: [Demons], [Vampires], [Angles], [Werewolves], [Dragons], [Gods], [Yokais], [Fantasies], [Mythologies], [Harem], [Incest], [R-18], [Wars], [Kingdom Building], [Battles].

Steve crossed over to Misaki City in the Bubble Era of the Type-Moon world, but he found that his start was somewhat peculiar. Except for possessing a world-shakingly brilliant mind with super learning and invention abilities as his initial cheat, he had no mysterious powers whatsoever. So, after painfully giving up on the idea of pushing the original story's main plot, this man could only look up at the stars. In any case, let’s start by saving the world and racking up enough achievements to enter the Throne of Heroes. For more info visit: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/typemoon-my-iq-is-over-9000/

A year after transmigrating, Lucas Blade, forced by circumstances to become a trainer, accidentally passed the Champion Exam. Immediately afterward, he announced his retirement on the spot, stating that, having once suffered through the 996 grind, he now just wanted a leisurely and peaceful life. However, just as he invested a huge sum to buy land and planned to build his farm, his long-delayed golden finger (cheat ability) finally arrived. At this time, the Tera orb had not yet been developed, and Sada/Turo had not yet become completely obsessed with the research of Area Zero... On one hand, there’s a special hint system in his chat group secretly helping him grow stronger; on the other, there’s the increasingly bizarre farm, thanks to the random appearances of strange people and Pokémon. On top of that, he still has to deal with the various students with different personalities at Naranja Academy, where he works... From that moment on, Lucas’ peaceful life began to stir with new waves. PS: The setting of this book combines anime and games, with some original elements. The golden finger (cheat ability) is relatively low-key.] Tags: Pokémon, slice of life, making up for regrets, relaxing, heart warming novel

Ren Yamamoto is a young student who suddenly finds himself forced to survive on his own after his father dies, but everything changes when his dreams begin to reveal a parallel world.

'Cyberpunk Edge', 'Madoka Magica', 'Shigatsu Kimi wa Uso'... it made everyone type "question mark" amidst laughter...

Rebirth + Era + 1960's - Femine + System Space + Military + Powerful Male protogonist At seventy-eight years old, she died with nothing but regret. Only at the end of her life did she learn the cruel truth— the world she had struggled through was nothing more than a novel. And she… was cannon fodder. Her father, once a Squad leader, was falsely branded a traitor and executed. Her three brilliant elder brothers were crushed one by one, stepping stones for the novel’s so-called “female lead.” Her family’s blood paved the road to the heroine’s glory. She could only watch helplessly as the heroine’s family prospered while hers was destroyed. Powerless. Broken. Too late. But fate was not finished with her. A falling flowerpot ended her life— and opened her eyes once more. 1958. She is thirteen years old again. Her parents are alive. Her brothers are alive. Everything has not yet begun. In the turbulent 1960s era, she awakens with memories of her previous life and an unexpected System Space that grants her resources and hidden advantages. This time, she will not be cannon fodder. She will not allow her family to be sacrificed. She will not let the so-called heroine step on their corpses to rise. Amid famine, political storms, and the shifting tides of the era, she quietly builds strength, gathers supplies within her mysterious space, and protects her family step by step. And standing in the shadows of the military compound is a powerful, sharp-eyed man— a future commander whose destiny was never meant to intertwine with hers. In her previous life, he stood at the peak of power. In this life, he watches her change everything. This time— She will become the author of her own fate. (Original) PS-: The Story is taking place in the parallel world, so although the historical events are same, characters are fiction.

His life’s mostly just mundane day-to-day stuff… but said little girl’s clearly playing tricks with his luck, since he’s inexplicably drawing heroines. Alternative Universe. A lot of nonsense ideas, questionable logic, and a plot that might or might not exist. Honestly, I’m not even sure this thing deserves to be called a plot. webnovel app was a free thing to use unlike the other apps n webs ,I could just connect my AirPods and listen to the story. Hence This story was never written to satisfy any readers. webnovel platform treats everything you post as public by default, so I can't make this story private at all. In fact, I wouldn’t even strongly recommend this fan fiction. It exists mostly as something I wrote for myself, a way to pass time and explore a few ridiculous “what if” ideas. To be completely honest, this fan fiction is basically just a creative experiment. It’s not meant to be taken too seriously. It simply exists to answer a random “what if” scenario that crossed my mind. This is written in a light novel style, and the pacing is slow. Friendly reminder for anyone who fancies themselves a “critic” (*´・ω)/(；д；). If that’s not you, feel free to skip this entirely. Most importantly: I’m not interested in hearing how this story “should” be written. “This should happen.” “That should change.” “I hate this.” “I hate that.” First of all… this is my own nonsense. So instead of trying to lecture someone else about how they “should” write, why not write your own story? It’s shit, I promise I’m writing this chaos for my own reasons, not to meet someone else’s personal checklist of standards. Peace out. Why publish it? Simple. I wrote it, so I published it. Not for approval, not for views, and certainly not to babysit fragile opinions. If the first chapter made you roll your eyes, feel free to quietly leave. Don’t stick around to sprinkle bitterness and unsolicited “feedback” across my work. This story exists on my terms, not yours, and that’s the point. For anyone who still doesn’t get it: I’m not here to entertain essays, rants, or mental gymnastics designed to prove how wrong you think I am. If your goal is to yell, argue, or display your misunderstanding at full volume, congratulations—you’ve found the wrong stage. Automatically blocked. Feel free to shout into the void somewhere else. Freedom of expression is wonderful… especially when it shows just how little someone actually read. I publish so I can experience my own story, hear it in audio, and know it exists outside my head. That’s it. End of discussion. [Well, I used Libby, Sonia, and Ryan voices for the audio at 1.0 speed.] And just to be extra clear: this story doesn’t revolve around random reader who think their opinion is law. Real readers understand that not every story is for them. Fake critics? They think every story exists solely to cater to their fragile sense of authority. (っ－＿－)っ I wrote this because I wanted to visualize the absurd ideas that cross my mind and learn along the way. I’m no author,just someone exploring writing and the English language.
