I have been reborn in France, and luckily, I have the identity of the Crown Prince. The downside is that the current king is Louis XVI, and in two years, he will be guillotined. Since my father and the ministers can’t be trusted, I’ll have to take matters into my own hands and reorganize France myself. First, I’ll make some money, just enough to solve the financial crisis that has plagued the country for centuries. Then, I’ll strike hard at the nobles with ill intentions who seek to usurp power. After that, I’ll seize the vast lands held by the church, which sits idle. Industry, technology, agriculture, and commerce will thrive together. I will be the greatest Crown Prince France has ever seen! Thank you for the support, friends. If you want to read more chapters in advance, go to my Patreon.

Cornered after a decade-long hunt, Ignotus did the impossible: At the cost of his life, he injured two of the three most powerful Runebearers in the realm. In a fit of rage, Hora, the Queen of Time, attempted to undo the humiliation, casting an ancient spell to reverse the clock and erase his final strike... But her arrogance was his salvation. Ignotus regressed to the day of his Ascension, the very day he received his first Rune. This time, he would choose another and set out on a new Path, all to rewrite his Fated future. Armed with the Heretic Saint System bestowed to him by the Gods, Ignotus will step out of his family's shadow, tear through the realm's higher strata, and drag his own House to the Heavens! But... Ding! That would've been too easy. — {HERETIC DETECTED!} [Nex, of House Death, has sensed the Soul that escaped his scythe.] [Hora, of House Time, has seen the stain left on her clock.] [???, of House Light, has witnessed the birth of a Twisted Light.] [YOU ARE BEING HUNTED.] — The hunt had resumed... An unending game of cat and mouse... Would he survive this time? — {Author Of Misunderstood Villain} {Alternative Title: Father Of Luck & Calamity} Discord Link: https://discord.gg/bGGfgMfu48

When eighteen-year-old orphan Alex dies in a meaningless construction accident, he awakens before a goddess who offers him a second life, but of course, not without a condition attached to it. Reborn in a beautiful yet broken world where women vastly outnumber men, he soon discovers the truth behind this fragile paradise: most men can no longer produce heirs. Noble houses are desperate for bloodlines. Churches guard forbidden secrets. And countless women live lonely lives in a society built to deny them love. Gifted with a mysterious system that rewards intimacy, loyalty, and growth, Alex suddenly becomes the most valuable man alive. But power attracts danger. As his influence spreads and a devoted harem begins to form around him, Alex realizes this mission is not merely about saving a dying world. Beneath the political struggles, corrupt clergy, noble intrigues, and unseen threats lies a far darker reality. He was not chosen by chance. He was brought here to fix a mistake the goddess cannot afford to reveal.

He isn't a hero. He's a man who watched his country fail his father and decided he couldn't stay quiet anymore. What he built a party, a platform, a movement he didn't plan costs more than he expected and survives longer than anyone predicted. This is the story of a country that almost became what it was supposed to be. A Nation's Tale Some things have to be built before they can be won.

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 leftover gacha pull. And to his genuine surprise, for the first time in a while, he actually won something. Ding! [Congratulations! Player: Quarterpounder69 has obtained the (Divine) Grade item, Eye of the Beast!] [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 f*cking know? 69... hmm, maybe not...' [Confirmed.] 'Wait—' [Congratulations! You've chosen the Special-Type Boss Monster Variation: The Pay-to-Win Boss.] [Congratulations!

The issue was, he went back in time, specifically, 150 days before the launch of version 1.0.

Once known as One-Eye, the Mercenary King fought for fifteen years beneath another man’s banner, uniting brutal companies and carving order from endless war. He did it for a single promise: land of his own, where his people could live free from nobles and crowns. The promise was broken. He was betrayed and left to die. In death, he met the Goddess of Fate, who had watched him from afar, loving his story before it was cut short. She grants him a second life, releasing him back into the world so she can watch his story unfold once more. Reborn as Aesa, abandoned and unwanted, he rises again from nothing. As he grows, he discovers the ability to see the gravity of fate itself and, with effort and consequence, bend it. Lives, reputations, and destinies begin to shift wherever he walks. This time, the Mercenary King will not fight for another man’s dream. He will gather warriors shunned by tradition, defy the knights who claim sole right to honor, and carve out land that is truly his own. Not even fate will decide his ending.

In 2068, the United States was moving toward a second frontier era, a second Manifest Destiny across the solar system. Then, one day, thanks to a strange alien signal, they discovered a hidden facility on Mars. The signal was transmitted through a device considered an ancient decoration but turned out to be a portal to another world. With a series of events, the United States sent one of its most elite teams to this world to investigate, Combat Fire Team-1, also known as Comanche, and discover why the people of Alagore opened a Bridge to their world. Comanche must explore the connections of this new world and the wonders discovered on Mars, confront the darkness known as the Unity in its global conquest, and above all, protect the US and the rest of Earth from this new threat. However, will they be able to discover the secrets of this war or fall victim to all that had come before?

At the Waters of Awakening, an elf is born with memories that don’t belong to this world. When the Valar arrive with their shining offer - salvation, eternal light, a paradise across the sea — he sees what others cannot. A price hidden beneath divine promises. Safety traded for freedom. So he does the unthinkable. He refuses. The Avari-the Unwilling, the Refusers, the ones history will forget — follow him into exile. What unfolds is not a tale of wandering wonder, but of building: walls raised against the coming darkness, weapons forged without divine guidance, a kingdom carved from nothing but will and determination. Because in Middle-earth, freedom is never free. And darkness always comes to collect. ━━━━━━━━ ⟡ AUTHOR’S NOTES ⟡ ━━━━━━━━ Lore-heavy beginning: The opening chapters introduce many Tolkien terms, names, and worldbuilding elements. If it feels dense at first, don’t worry - each chapter ends with a mini-glossary to help you navigate everything easily. Long-form chapters: The chapter count may look small early on, but every chapter is substantial (3,000+ words minimum, often much longer). AU & apologies to lore purists: This is an Alternate Universe kingdom-building story set in Tolkien’s Middle-earth. I apologize in advance to hardcore LOTR fans for any lore liberties or naming mistakes - I’m doing my best to honor the source material while exploring new possibilities. Constructive feedback is always welcome (kindly, please)! Give it a chance. The Avari are waiting!!!

This is a fan translation of 求你让我上英灵座吧 The original author is 洛州白马 Art is by @km_mechi Edit is by ClayTL Please support them! === "I transmigrated into the Nasuverse and gained recognition from the Root itself. As long as I can manage an unnatural death, I’ll ascend to the Throne of Heroes—becoming its master, stronger and freer than any of the Seven Grand Servants." "So, I started courting death all across the Nasuverse." "I openly insulted the King of Heroes to his face, challenged the almighty Zeus in Greece, abducted Scathach in broad daylight in the Norse realm, declared in Israel that Solomon was a demon god rather than the Son of God, and in Britain, I went so far as to publicly side with Morgan..." "But tell me—why am I still alive?" ... Fuyuki, 1994. A man of many names: the third companion of the Oldest King, the First Vizier of Mesopotamia, the favored of the Greek gods, King of the Giants in the Norse lands, the divine incarnation who awakened Solomon’s humanity in Israel, the prince’s right hand in Camelot... Rovi, whose face was young but whose eyes carried the weight of ages, sat atop the Fuyuki Bridge. With a weary sigh, he looked at the people before him. “So, where do you think it all went wrong?” He lowered his voice, half-pleading, half-desperate: “How about... you kill me? Just let me ascend to the Throne, please—I’m begging you!” Emiya Kiritsugu lit a cigarette, glancing at Artoria beside him, who’d raised Rhongomyniad; at Gilgamesh, whose Gate of Babylon shimmered ominously behind him; at the blood-red spearhead emerging from the shadows of the Land of Shadows...The hand holding his cigarette trembled, just a little. === discord.gg/wisetl

"History says nations are built on speeches and slogans. History is wrong." "Nations are built on plumbing, supply chains, and systems." Bilal, a cynical game developer from 2024, knows exactly how the “game” of British India ends—with the fire and blood of 1947. When he wakes up inside the mind of Muhammad Ali Jinnah (Father of The Nation) in 1930, he realizes that following the historical script is a death sentence for millions. The Quaid-e-Azam (Father of The Nation) of the textbooks—the distant, immaculate lawyer—needs a patch. Forming an unlikely partnership, the modern systems thinker and the Edwardian barrister abandon the politics of London and Delhi. Instead, they retreat to the forgotten backwaters of Montgomery to attempt something dangerous: Project Sandalbar. Their goal is not rebellion—but construction. To build a functioning prototype state inside the belly of the British Empire. Armed with modern knowledge of logistics, communication networks, and resource management—wielded through Jinnah’s razor-sharp legal mind—they begin engineering a sanctuary against the coming storm. The Mission: Turn a dust-bowl estate into a self-sustaining fortress. The Tools: Sanitation protocols, radio networks, cooperative economics, and a militia disguised as farm guards. The Obstacles: Feudal lords, imperial suspicion, religious extremism, and the ticking clock of history. They are not fighting for independence. They are building a lifeboat. Can a game developer and a lawyer “mod” the operating system of the Raj before the server crashes?

In the far future, her world died. Under a gray sky and a broken sun, cities became skeletons of steel and concrete. Demonic invaders devoured the land, the forests turned to ash, and humanity survived only in ruins and sewers. She was one of the last. A nameless girl called Blondie by the soldiers who rescued her. A battlefield survivor. A healer born from a world that no longer grew anything. She learned to fight. She learned to hide. She learned never to trust. And then she died. When she opens her eyes again, she is no longer in a wasteland. She is inside the body of a kidnapped girl in the year 2006 — in a world overflowing with green forests, running water, summer air, and something she has never seen before: Normal life. But she is not normal. Her wounds close before your eyes. Her body heals from anything. Her presence feels… wrong. Silent. Observant. Unreadable. She doesn’t understand school. She doesn’t understand money. She doesn’t understand friendship. But she understands survival. Now stranded in a peaceful modern world that feels more alien than the demons she once fought, she must decide: Will she remain a weapon shaped by war? Or will she learn how to be human again? ---- Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

The year is 1459. Constantinople has fallen, and the Romans are no more. Nearly fifteen hundred years after its founding, the greatest empire the world has known has ceased to exist, swallowed whole by the Great Ottoman tide. In the dying embers of the Byzantine world, its last rump states stand on the brink of collapse. Their fall will mark the end of any remnant of Roman rule. Nestled in the mountains of the Crimean Peninsula, the tiny Greek Principality of Theodoro clings to a desperate existence, living in the shadow of Byzantium's destroyers. Its fall is not a possibility; it is a historical certainty. Dr. Nikos Karagiannis is a History professor ripped across worlds into the body of Theodorus, a bookish third son in a disgraced house with a prophetic name, but little prospects. Nikos has no magic or divine blessings. What he does possess is the knowledge of the political blunders, the shifting alliances, and the military tactics that will lead this land to ruin. "The city is fallen and I am still alive." – Constantine XI Palaiologos, the last Byzantine Emperor. What to Expect: Historical Kingdom-Building: A gritty, grounded take on rebuilding a nation where logistics are king, supply lines are lifelines, and battles are won with strategy, not superpowers. A Brutally Realistic World: The protagonist is not the center of the universe. Allies and antagonists have their own ambitions and plans, and will act accordingly. Meaningful Character Arcs: A story where characters are forged and broken by the crucible of war and politics. Dramatic and tense character interplay abounds, and no one is safe. You have been warned.

Who knew that there was a world of uncertainty out there and that it could clash with a normal gilr who just lost her mother. Now she faces a new destiny. Will she make it?

The first vampire, Cain, ruled over the continent of Rampiel, the land of blood, with an iron fist. For hundreds of years, he fought battles against the humans to rid them from his land, to which he succeeded. However, Cain's arrogance grew with his recent victory. He believed himself to be far more superior to the humans, which drove him to attack Seraphim, the continent of humans, with all his might. After decades of war, Cain eventually disappeared completely, which led to the army he brought with him to be completely eradicated from the face of the world. With a couple more years passing, humans finally took their chance to seize Rampiel for themselves, sending in mercenaries as meat shields, with the royal army following close in pursuit. Eventually, a group of mercenaries stumbled their way into restricted area, finding a crypt that would change the tides of war ever more. Updating once every other day.

18+ Content Val Vorkard didn’t get hit by a truck. He didn’t save a child or meet a goddess. He was sitting in his bedroom when a claw the size of a skyscraper ripped through reality, grabbed him by the waist, and dragged him into the broken world of Aethelgard. He wakes up staring into the golden eyes of Ferrer, the "World Eater"—an Ancient Beast of apocalyptic power who has been sealed for centuries. But she didn't summon a hero to slay her. She summoned a battery. "My power is leaking," the massive wolf growls. "I need a soul dense enough to hold my leash. I need... a Master." Val has two choices: be crushed by the pressure of a dying world, or accept the pact. He chooses the pact.

Garrett Cole was never a good person—just a functional one. He learned early that society had rules, and following them was easier than explaining why he didn't feel what everyone else seemed to feel. People were puzzles. Relationships were transactions. Engineering was perfect because systems made sense where humans didn't. He spent fifteen years in war zones rebuilding infrastructure, not because he cared about the people he helped, but because broken systems were interesting puzzles. He had colleagues, not friends. Professional respect, not affection. A reputation for cold competence that served him in boardrooms and failed him everywhere else. He died at thirty-four saving eleven workers from a building collapse in Turkey. Not heroism—spite. Someone had corrupted his work, substituted substandard materials, turned his design into a deathtrap. The insult overrode his survival instincts. He went back for one more person because stopping felt like losing. The ceiling came down. His last thought was fury at himself for breaking his own rules. He died angry. He woke up the same way. Garrett didn't land in a random corpse. He woke inside Kael Ashford—Thornveld spy, traitor, and mass murderer. Ashford had been ritually executed by the Ascendancy, but before death, he'd made a deal. His body was promised to a fire entity older than the church, payment for services rendered. Now Garrett is squatting in contested property. The entity wants its vessel back. Ashford's enemies want revenge on a face they recognize. Ashford's handlers want their asset returned. And the body itself carries abilities that haven't yet awakened.

Have you ever wished you exactly knew how to accomplish your dreams? Not feeling the slightest doubt anymore? Being aware at any time how every choice, action and decision of yours affects your future? That's what happened to Jake Wilderth, a procrastinating young man without ambition. When a mysterious silver spaceship, popping out from nowhere, delivered to each Earthling a bracelet containing an AI introducing itself as the Oracle, their destiny changed.

But when everyone became equal to face the future, he soon realized no gift comes for free.. Just a warning. Volume 1 sets the atmosphere in a Earth slowly degenerating into chaos and can be considered as a big prologue. It is slow and not as rewarding for the readers than mainstream stories on this website. If you can push through it will be worth it.
