When something in the void speaks to him, everything changes. It gives him one of the Nine Chronicles—cosmic laws that when recited grant unique supernatural abilities. And from that moment on, Emory’s caught in a game that was rigged before he was even born. He’ll go to war and begin to question whether he's fighting for the right cause, or just a cog in the system.

Half a half-century after the events of the Crown of Stars, Terra stands transformed. On Terra, the shattering of the Grey— the mystical veil that once hid magic from mundane eyes—has fused two realities into one. Cities now share their skylines with floating citadels, arcane ley‑lines hum beneath once‑quiet streets, and ordinary Terrans awaken to powers they never dreamed possible. In the vacuum left by the fallen regimes, the mage‑conclave Octagram and the chivalric order Golden Dawn broker a fragile new world order alongside the rulers of the former Hidden World. Amid the upheaval, Samantha Sinclair—reborn as Asha’Yee, Keeper of the Divine Flame—guides the newly awakened through their first sparks of power. Together with Emily Legens and Rex Pendragon, she turns her focus to a deeper enigma: the vanishing of the legendary AurenIdril Empire, whose secrets may hold the key to stabilizing (or toppling) the newborn age. Every clue draws them closer to the mythic Eclipsed Vault, a place whispered to house the empire’s final legacy—and the reason the gods themselves fear Terra’s rise. Far from home, Leonard Haravok—now a full demigod—has returned to the Divine Federation and vanished from public sight. Rumors hint at celestial trials, forbidden bargains, and a destiny that could either save Terra or condemn it. As cosmic forces converge on the planet, Leon and Sam’s intertwined fates edge toward an inevitable collision—one that will test old loyalties, spark new alliances, and decide whether the light of the new era will blaze or be snuffed out before it can truly dawn. In a world where the veil is gone and the gods are watching, the greatest secrets lie in the shadows of the Eclipsed Vault—and unlocking them may cost more than anyone is willing to pay.

Elias "Grim" Kingsley, a self-made billionaire who rose from homelessness, dies alone in his mansion. Instead of finding peace, he meets an irritated God of Balance who holds him responsible for a catastrophic butterfly effect his investment will cause. As punishment, the annoyed god reincarnates Grim into a world of magic and swords as Grim van Ambrose, the last heir of a fallen noble house. Born as his mother dies in childbirth. Grim must navigate his new life in a fantasy realm where elemental magic rules and the family name he inherits has lost its former glory.

A Journey Across Time, A Battle for Freedom What if you could go back in time? What would you do? Stop the world war? Stop slavery? When Joseph Situma, a modern-day man, is thrust back to the year 1542, he is reborn as Khisa Lusweti, the son of a village chief in Eastern Africa. Struggling to bridge the gap between his past life and his new reality, Khisa must navigate the brutal tides of history. But as he uncovers the looming horrors of the transatlantic slave trade, he realizes that fate has given him a chance—an opportunity to change the course of history. Armed with knowledge beyond his years and the trust of a people who see him as both a leader and a boy, Khisa must unite warriors, outthink ruthless enemies, and fight for a future that was never meant to be. But history is not so easily rewritten, and with every victory comes a greater challenge. Will he defy destiny, or will the weight of the past crush him before he can break the chains of oppression? A gripping tale of resilience, strategy, and the unyielding spirit of a people on the brink of war.

Ari Igurashi was a gloomy loner who despised insects—especially ants. Bullied for his relationship with a girl named Keiko, his resentment toward the world only grew. After a heated argument with her, he stumbled upon an ant nest and destroyed it in a fit of frustration. But fate had other plans. Moments later, Ari was hit by a truck and killed. When he awoke, he found himself in a strange new world—reborn as an ant. Stripped of his human form and forced to survive in a brutal colony, he soon realized that the very creatures he once loathed now surrounded him. Will his hatred for ants waiver? Faced with merciless training, towering enemies, and a past that haunts him, Ari must navigate this unforgiving new life. Will he succumb to his hatred, or will he rise above it and carve out a new purpose in a world where survival means everything?

Born with wealth, power, and luxury, he had everything—except interest. Life was dull, predictable… until it wasn’t. One day, he dies—only to wake up in a world he never even finished writing. That’s right. He’s been reincarnated as a character in his own unfinished novel. The problem? He has no clue what happens next. No overpowered abilities, no divine guidance—just a world filled with unknown dangers, political intrigue, and an empire waiting to be built… from scratch. But hey, at least it’s not another cliché power fantasy, right? Or is it? Armed with his business acumen, quick wit, and a talent for avoiding hard work, he sets out to survive, scheme, and somehow build a kingdom—all while trying to figure out just what kind of story he’s trapped in. After all, who needs destiny when you can make your own?

Rael screwed up badly. One reckless gamble later, and his guild's entire emergency fund was gone. With debt collectors ready to harvest his organs, his only hope was a single, desperate gacha pull. Ding! [Congratulations! Player: Quarterpounder69 has obtained the (Divine) Grade item, Eye of the Beast!] [Divine Grade item obtained! All Stats +250] [First Divine Grade item obtained! All Stats +100] [New title unlocked! [Heavenly Attraction] (Divine)] With no other choice, he consumed the item—only to be thrown into a situation no player had ever faced before. [To ensure fairness, please select a random number. This will determine which boss monster variation you become.] 'Uh, I don't fucking know? 69... hmm, maybe not...' [Confirmed.] 'Wait—' [Congratulations! You've chosen the Special-Type Boss Monster Variation: The Pay-to-Win Boss.] [Congratulations! You've become a Boss Monster!] Armed with broken perks like [Premium Leveling], [Premium Evolution], and [Premium Shop], Rael was thrust into the world of the VRMMORPG game he had been playing.

Reborn in 2022 I died full of ideas... but without time to make them a reality. Now I'm back. 2022, Mexico. Back in my university body, with everything ahead of me and everything I learned in my other life: the rise of digital commerce, cryptocurrencies, artificial intelligence... and the mistakes I won't make again. No one knows I'm from the future. This second time around, my goal is clear: to become a mogul, from the public university classroom to the skyscrapers of Mexico City. With a little vision, a little technology—and an artificial intelligence I brought with me—I'm going to seize every opportunity before the world even knows it exists. Because this time, I'm not here to survive. I'm here to win.

Fate is a lie. Destiny is a chain. But there are those who shatter both. When gods take sides and kings become pawns, the battlefields shall burn with the fury of the ages. Celestial blades will sever the sky, warriors will tear through fate itself, and dharma will drown in an ocean of blood. But in a war where righteousness is an illusion and power is the only truth, who dares to claim victory? Who dares to defy the will of creation itself? Let the heavens tremble. Let eternity burn. For when the final arrow flies, even the gods shall kneel.

In the grim, war-torn future of humanity, a young girl named Lili witnesses the brutal fall of her world. When the Plague Demons of Lord Pesti´s descend upon her planet, the skies darken with a toxic green cloud, and soon, the infected rise—transformed into zombies with grotesque smiles and weeping eyes. As her parents become monstrous husks, Lili’s strength and resilience shine through, as she alone survives the chaos, guided by a mysterious, warm light that resides within her. As the last bastion of humanity fights back, Lili is taken under the protection of a battle-hardened Sergeant and his squad of Imperial Guard soldiers. Together, they find refuge deep within the abandoned metro tunnels, surviving for years as the world above is consumed by the infection. But nothing can last forever. When the time comes to fight their way back to the surface, only Lili and the Sergeant remain. In a final act of bravery, the Sergeant sacrifices himself, giving Lili a grenade and a chance to survive—though she, too, is left at the brink of death. But Lili is not gone. Her light, a beacon of life, keeps her soul tethered to the void, where she encounters the Sergeant’s soul, adrift in the darkness of space. In an impossible twist of fate, their bond is so strong that they are pulled through time and space, crashing into the year 1870—smack in the middle of the Franco-Prussian War. But the journey is not without its consequences. The Sergeant’s soul, now intertwined with Lili’s, takes on a new form as Lilis identical twin. And now they are two blonde-haired, blue-eyed, six-year-old girls. Together they must now navigate this strange new world—an ancient conflict, a new identity, and the remnants of their previous lives all converging as they fight to survive once more. Lili’s light may have saved her once, but in this new time, will it be enough to alter the course of history? Will they fight for a better humanity or accidentally destroy it? And in the process, will they ever uncover the true nature of their bond—and the destiny that awaits them? Will they be good girls or not so much so?

The latest offering from the pen of the creator of "My Military Branches Can Evolve Infinitely", Bimo Zhijian. --------------------------------------------- The world has experienced a radical transformation. Source Qi has awakened and the apocalypse has descended. This is a catastrophe and also the beginning of a new epoch. Tang Yu somehow obtained a domain system, and while summoning warriors, producing equipment, developing his domain, drafting rules...as he looked back, he discovered that he was already standing at the apex of the era.

Everyone transmigrated to the High Continent and became a Lord to participate in the conquest between Lords from all the other races. A few lucky Lords would receive Lord Talents. “Hah! My talent is the Knight’s Hall, a Diamond-Tier Lord Talent! My subjects can job change into a unique warrior class, the Combat Spirit Knight!” “My Lord Talent is the King of Abyss. I can summon demons to become my subjects!” “I have a lot of subjects who are scientists! I can create advanced technologies!” “My Talent allows me to cultivate! I’ll become a celestial!” Zhou Zhou received a Legendary-Tier Lord Talent — 100% drop rate! Not only could he see the things he would receive from an enemy, but his enemies would drop all of their loot when they were defeated. “Watch as I make you drop your Talents!”

Duncan Abnomar was transmigrated to a magical world. Most of the lands of the world had sunken, and the surviving humans could only live on islands. Due to an unknown reason, the world was also contaminated and strange phenomena and things would randomly appear. Humans had developed steam gear technology, and the islands were connected through boats. They survived by studying strange phenomena that happened all around the world. However, as the captain of a scary-looking ghost ship, Duncan was facing a huge challenge. "How the heck do I steer this ship?" Highly recommended by experienced editor: MC is transmigrated to a world mostly covered in water and far from civilization. He becomes the captain of the ghost ship, the 'Homeloss'. He steers through the fog and adventures through the broken world and the unknown deep sea. As he discovers the ruins of abandoned civilization, he would also stumble into the war between the strange phenomena and the devil gods. The story takes place in a combination of ocean and Chutly mythology world, a new and interesting background. It’s an attractive story to read due to the author’s sense of humor and mastery over the ambiance of the story. --------------- Another-style introduction: "On that day, a thick fog engulfed everything. On that day, he became the captain of a ghost ship. On that day, he crossed the dense fog and faced a completely overturned and shattered world – the former order was completely gone, and peculiar phenomena dominated the endless seas beyond civilized society. The island city-states and the fleets challenging the sea have become the only lights of civilization left, while the shadows of old days still lurk in the deep sea, waiting to devour this dying world again. But for the new captain, there's only one pressing question – Does anyone know how to sail this damn ship?!"
