"Argh, how did my life end up like this?!"... more>>

There was once a boy who's well-loved and popular with his peers. His smile could melt an adult's heart and his easygoing and sweet nature attracted a lot of girls who became his admirers.

Little did he know that such a blessed life wouldn't last forever.

Now, he is an ugly, overweight adult, working a job he doesn't like, and leading a life he doesn't want. No women want to be near him, let alone be his girlfriend, or even his wife. He is an oversized gear in a machine that doesn't even welcome him.

When he gets fired from his job, it is the last straw from him. He remembers his life as a kid, and now good and beautiful it was.

"I don't want this. I don't want this anymore!"

"I would be better off dead than having to live like this for a second longer!"

Suicidal, he passes by a flooding river, as there is a storm that day. He immediately thinks of throwing himself there, ending it once and for all.

And he does. But not because he actually has the balls to kill himself via drowning, but because he sees a little girl being carried down the river by the strong current.

In a split second, he decides that it would be better if she lives, even if he has to die in the process.

And he does. He saves her, throwing her into the side of the river. But then his legs, rarely ever used, suddenly cramp. He can do nothing as he is swallowed by the waves.

"Aah, it would be nice if I could be reincarnated into a fantasy world, like in those stories... I can do it all over, and do it better this time around..."

His wish is granted. When he wakes up, he's no longer his old, adult self. He's a baby, living in an entirely new world.

This is his story.

------

This story would have both happiness and hardships, heartwarming and sad moments, as well as romance that doesn't just end in a kiss. This is a harem story that will end up in a genuine polygamous relationship. It's also an adventure story, though it would stay as a slice-of-life for a good while as MC grows up.

What would you do if one day you were told you were one of the chosen who would have to battle to save the world?... more>>

Akio was an average guy, having moved to the big city from his humble town in the mountains. Sure, his IT freelancing job wasn't making him big money, and he wasn't exactly a hit with the ladies, but life wasn't all that bad... until one day a mysterious angel-like being visited him to tell him the Earth was in danger. Many would be chosen to fight this fate, but would any succeed?

Of course, if one could have the usual cheat skills everything would work out, wouldn't it? So why was his skill like a garbage pay-to-win mobile game? Akio would have to not only hone his skills and build his Astral Empire, but he would need to raise money, secure land and become a player on Earth too! Facing this challenging task alone would surely be impossible, so Akio needs to make strong and beautiful allies to take on all those who would oppose him.

Who would that be, you ask? The old myths of Earth are returning, alien invaders are waiting outside on the Astral Tides, Cultivators are looking for their next faces to slap, Demons are whispering poison into the ears of anyone who would listen, and whoever was trying to save Earth by granting various people powers were making some really awful choices...

Join Akio as he starts at the bottom of the ladder, clawing his way to the top and discovering one can change their destiny, so long as they work hard (and have a boat-load of money!).

[This story is a modern world LitRPG where I try and balance the real world, the other world and various character-development scenarios. The pace can be described as 'measured', as there is a lot of 'slice-of-life' style events to balance 'number-go-up' and Territory capture]

What can you expect from this story? MC and side characters who are flawed and make mistakes, but ultimately grow and change, bettering themselves and the world around them. Yes, the MC does start off a bit weak and whiny, but he does get over it as the story progresses. It's a slow burn though.

Likewise Harem and romance. it is most definitely harem, though again it's a slow burn and not easy to reach. There are some r18 scenes with them, but these don't happen until a fair way into the story.

Real-world consequences of power. I'm trying to explore this slowly, so expect politics down the line.

Base-building in both the real and the other world, growing power, money, influence and more. it's a slow burn but a focus.

Cultivators, Faeries, Demons, Gods and more, though again, it takes a while for more and more of these to appear.

===========================================================
Warning:
1: MC won't engage in rape but there might be scenes of it in the background or as part of the story, Not everyone is nice in the wasteland.
2: The first couple of chapters are pretty small but they should reach a steady 3-4k
3:MC will barter with goods for sex at some point in the story, Although he will never force someone to do anything sexual, he might influence people's decision by offering something sweet. For example if he found someone starving he would never blackmail her into anything. But after feeding her and ensuring her immediate survival he could offer the choice to part with some more supplies in return for a sexual favour. This won't happen at the start of the novel since he is still good mannered and a bit naive but as he develops in such a brutal envoriment he himself start to be flexible as well. Naturally he is still from a modern world and there will be certain lines he simply doesn't want to cross.
4: MC Will engage in slavery: This includes buying combat orientated slaves and having them fight for him, Compared to the wasteland he will be a good master but compared to moral standards it is still quite questionable at best. Although he might feel guilty at the start he will grow to live with it and won't free them.
5: The MC needs time to develop himself as a character while I develop myself as a writer/author. Please be patient with this, The MC for example will start off a little bit Naïve.
6: The MC won't be overpowered nor will he be doing everything by himself he will be happy to rely on more capable individuals. He isn't afraid to admit that a girl (potentially one of his) is better suited for something then he is.
7: Although I'm not planning on it there might be Yuri (Female X female) smut in the story at some point same goes for BDSM and other things not everyone is into. Will post a clear warning before a chapter if this is the case.
8: Art isn't mine, Please reverse search it to find the artist, If anyone wants to claim credits or have it removed contact me ;)
9: Although the novel is categorized as " smut " it does have actual plot. <<less

In a small coastal town, there were rumors of a lonely young man who lived in a beautiful mansion alone.
The town hardly had any... more>> youngsters who wanted to come to live there. The young people who were born in the town almost always left for the big cities, only to come back in the future to retire or help out with their parents. Sometimes they’d bring with them wife and kids, the odd time their friends would also follow along. The ones that did stay only stayed because they didn’t have grades to compete within the city, or they wanted to do their parent's work such as farming or fishing.
Hence, it was strange. One day a young man came off a bus at the pitstop and didn’t get back on. Instead, he searched for a real estate office and ended up buying a large mansion fitted with side buildings. Afterward, the town only saw him when he went out for groceries or the odd coffee.
There were many ideas about this teenager, and hence tales were told through whispers and over drinks.
“He’s obviously a criminal. Why would such a handsome young man choose to settle down here?”
“Is he handsome? I haven’t seen him before!”
“Oh my, he’s a handsome fellow! That boy asked me where the real estate office was. I thought he was planning on inheriting land or something.”
“I heard from my friend that he sent someone to the hospital.”
“What if he murdered someone?”
“Haven’t you heard… The kids told me that the mansion lights were on for half the night! What could he be doing up so late?”
“Now that you mention it… Isn’t he jobless? Is he running a shady business somewhere?”
Shin Jun had no idea that moving to a small town would cause him to be misunderstood so badly. He’d simply found a cute little, silent town on a bus ride and decided to settle down. <<less

During the incidents with him, they had been secretly monitored by something he secretly had in the whole time. So those evidences he got would be used as revenge on the girls who made false accusations.
Will his revenge plan work? If so, will the people he knows including the false accusers apologize to him? And thanks to the girls who betrayed Youjin, he finally became cautious. So everyone around him are suspicious for him, but… <<less

YES THEY ARE BOTH YANDERE.

When a meteorite struck the earth's surface barely a million humans were left alive. All the laws became useless as people started doing whatever they wanted, and no one was there to stop them.
But soon a power started awakening in 10 years old called Ether.
Each person has a single power which can become very deadly depending on how they use it. After an orphan rose in power and created a Kingdom for the leftover humans, brutality died down but was not wiped instantly.

The King had two children from one of his wives.

' Keiran and Luna '

Born as royalties, they were provided with everything, everything but love. Love had no place where humans were trying to survive. when they turned 10 years old their lives turned from heaven to hell, they were declared to have an useless power.

Thrown into an arena of death, a nightmarish battleground where alliances were fleeting, and trust was a rarity, Keiran and Luna confronted harrowing challenges. Their father, consumed by lust for power, had cast them into this hellish arena, hoping they would emerge as formidable survivors. In this area there were no rules only winners and dead bodies.

Amidst the savagery of the arena, a guiding light emerged in the form of an enigmatic system. Whispers of guidance reached out to them, offering cues that led to survival opportunities, alliances, and ways to manipulate the arena's dynamics.

Lucas Grey was an orphaned child, raised by his army veteran grandfather after his parents and older brother were taken from him by a drunk-driver while he was too young to even be able to spell his own name. His roughneck grandfather made it his mission to teach Lucas whatever he could; survival skills, self-defensive combat, basic automotive maintenance, and, most importantly, how to be a good man. Lucas has two goals in life, make his grandfather proud and have a happy family with lots of children. Then the unthinkable suddenly crashed into reality. The first bombs fell while he was driving home from university, erasing the mountains on the horizon and sending a wave... more>> of fiery annihilation racing his direction. A searing white flash is the last experience of Lucas' short life. Then the pain begins. A post-apocalyptic survival harem 300 years after the collapse of civilization. The women are fierce, the wildlife is monstrous, and life is brutal. More importantly, the men are scarce, being only 10% of the known population.

NOTE: There will be smut as the story progresses, but all adult content depicted will be consensual and absolutely no NTR. Relationships will primarily be romantic and long-term. MC will be an adult mentally, but his teenage hormones will affect his better judgement sometimes. This story is written with a clear ending in mind, but reader input may lead to alterations in the process of reaching that end.
