"The internationally renown game company Crestfallen Industry has finally revealed the release date of Rising Essence!!"
"O-o-ooh?! What is this?! CEO of Crestfallen Industry, aka K. Crestfallen, has just revealed the release date for RE?! Just 3 weeks! In 3 weeks the 1,500 years of technology and planning has now come to being! We, the citizens of the New Earth in the 20th century will be the first to witness it!"
"K. Crestfallen has revealed the date for Rising Essence this morning in his account at 9:37 am, did he thought he was slee..."
"The most advanced technology will see light in 3 weeks at..."
...
'Huh?'
Eyes opened wide, disbelief crossing his entire being, the man with a regretful life made a call from the ultimate generation phone he never uses and traditionally throws away after a few days.
Heavy but slow breathing sounded and the tone of the phone marking, then picked up. "M..."
"..."
"..."
"...Yes?"
Taking an inaudible deep breath, he continues. "M-Mom, I'd like to get something..."

Something he had not the need nor will to ask for in more than a decade was once again heard from his mouth.

[R-18, Mature Element Warning!] [Multiverse!]... more>>

A young man with a questionable job dies, eaten by a shark. To his surprise, afterlife was a spinning roulette that decided his next world and powers, with an annoyed Goddess supervising the process.

The Gamer System welcomes him with open arms, and he shivers in the endless potential it holds. If used right, he knew The Gamer could step beyond even Godhood. Beyond God.

Out of desperation, that was exactly what his goal became. The Goddess was a snitch, and now she and her fellow Gods wanted him dead. What, and why?

In the end, [Soul 799], soon to be renamed as [Neji Hado], becomes a Cursed Soul.

Lust was reduced to the point of being a sin.

Is it really a sin?

If it is a sin then there is no next generation or not future at all.

……………

I was betrayed on the very day I let my guard down,

Sold to thugs and became the bitch of many,

Got my revenge using my body to gain prestige on the dark side of the world?

On the day I was fucked my 10 thousandth dick target, I got two invitations.

One is the will of lust and the other is to enter the real word.

……….

So the world I have lived till now is a sanctuary,

There is the real world and a fantasy world.

All the fantasy worlds are literary works like movies, anime, and other stories.

From the will of lust I got the special perverted patch for the fantasy system.

Perverted fantasy evolution system is online <<less

When everything in existence suffers a change, or welcomes it, and what is to come has finally come - would it beget with its origination the terror, deathliness, tragedy, torment and devastation? Or would it, by any chance, differ from its authentic nature and reality?... more>>

In the deepest of the first starless dark blue night, its point of origin vastly different from the one where everything 'began'... a beautiful hand reaches to taint the most fearsome. Would its origin bring chaos to it all?
--- *** ---

What are the words that hold the utmost power? What are the thoughts that break it all? Which are those who shine brightest, gloom darker, and explode defiantly against reality who prevail?

Any lifeform of the world, no matter how advanced and evolved; all become subject to terror for the very same ones:

One, afraid of the dark. Two, of the violent forces of Nature. Three, of Injustice.

It's not about having the reason on your side; it's not about having the power to demand for subservience and is not whether one is right or not... It's about taking it all with your own hands!

No darkness is gloom without light to obverse it; no light shines brighter without endless emptiness. But it is only one that is; only that has been; only one that can; that will; that KNOWS.

One little grain of sand can evolve into a dried-up sea; one little animal can become a monster; one sole thought can become reality... But can any of them regress, lose it all, suffer nonsensically, and beget — 'all that exists and there is'?

Would they be willing to? ...Can they do it? ...Do they understand?

Synopsis for dummies:

Born in a world where every imaginable thing is so advanced even the earth one can step on moves and thinks, met with the pureness of nature at birth, and touched by the unimaginable.

To see the future is for fools. To long for the past is too late. But to see ahead is the only road.

What might be a long and arduous lifelong objective for one can be a simple step for others. What others can't see might be sensed by someone else. And to walk as one never betrays themselves... is glory.

When the bells ring, the heavens change, the world trembles, and a change is called upon... Will there finally be that something that has been missing? What the world had lacked all this long? What... the world deserves? Will a person change that? Will they do it all alone, terribly consumed in coldness and leaving horrors wherever that person walks? Or will there be a returning change that the world has even forgotten for... ever?

Even the smallest of rebellions and uprisings... can be the start of everything.

Gods are, generally speaking, not fans of directly putting their fingers on the scale. This is for a variety of reasons, ranging from cautioun to amusement, but is generally because after a few hundred millennia and enough prayers to fill a hollow Earth, you're bound to learn the art of delegation. Luckily, among the unwashed masses, there exist the exceptional, the gifted, those with the potential to become Heroes.... more>>

Useful pawns.

Thus, the Gods adopted a more laissez-faire policy.

Quasi Eludo has been a Hero. He did the whole "save the world” rigmarole, came home, and mulled over his magical journey. It was amazing! A whole lifetime as the destined savior, with magic and monsters, love and adventure, lifelong friendships and heartfelt goodbyes. There was so much, and yet, gone so soon.

It wasn’t enough. It was never enough. He wanted to do it again. And where wants coincide, there's a market, so he sold his services to the lazy, wanton Gods.

Quasi Eludo, Hero for Hire. [No world too big, no quest too small]
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Now, after countless subjective centuries of Hero-ing, and several awkward conversations with the IRS, an odd God has come to Quasi with a unique request: Destroy a world, minimum payment of several million dollars on completion.

Quasi sees no reason not to accept.

*$50,000 USD minimum charge plus expenses for all fetch quests. Extermination requests subject to environmental review.

Dyne Valiant is a frustrated gamer.
But as one of the best special ops agents that the world has, his superiors and the government itself ensured that he won’t be able to play video games because of his addictive tendencies. And so he lived and fought without ever being able to play beyond the nostalgic PS-One games.
Fate was cruel as he finally meets his end after exacting revenge on those who killed his family. But on his dying moments, another dying man with strange magical powers appears.... more>>

But unlike Dyne, justice was not served for this man. He then offers Dyne a chance to satisfy the greatest regret of his life… To play the videogames he loved back when he was a kid. Using the enigmatic god-tiered artifact, the Imaginarium Bond, Dyne is revived and sent to the world of cultivators where he must reach for the peak and challenge the gods of that world.

And while the path of Immortality and a second life was a great gift, Dyne's joy was elsewhere.
Within the Imaginarium Bond were three worlds that the mysterious man created with the last of his powers. These worlds were based on three PS-One classic games and are designed to help Dyne in his Path of Cultivation.

Soon, Dyne will reach the Cultivation world and fight the wicked Kings, Saints, Devils, and Gods that now control it.

Soon, Dyne will awaken the Genesis Trees of Legaia.

Soon he will conquer the many nations with his Rune Knights in the continent of Forsena.

Soon he will be reborn as an Endless to battle gods and dragons and slay the founding Emperor of the Fou Empire.

Dyne was deprived of gaming all his life. But now his life depends on his gaming. Witness the tales of Dyne Valiant in his adventure as a Nostalgic Gamer in a Cultivation World.

Mokami Yaoyorozu, born as Momo's twin brother with advanced Quirk that allows him to create even living things. With the ability to change the structure of everything, he tries to become a hero in his second life.... more>>

But one day he sees his father's dark deeds and realizes rich people all around the globe are part of something big and dark. To protect his family and innocent, he starts to get stronger while scheme through their ranks, so he can destroy them from within.

Join Mokami in his exciting life!

What to expect;

Strong Romance; MC is romantic type of a guy that abhors to use women. There will be many women around him but he will woo them with love.

Harem(Incest); There will be many women from the anime and some OCs. Momo and their mother will also be part of the harem.

Slow Pace; It is not going to be meeting and fucking in an instant. I like to take my time and build up the romance before getting into the action so if you are looking for quick fucks, this story is not for you.

Strong but not Overpowered MC; He is always stronger than average but not omnipotent. Expect him to fallback and lose things just to rise on his feet stronger. Although the main theme is not power, the novel has some.

Some dark truths about world that may trigger you. Abuse of minors and worse. Never done by MC, will never be done MC but as MC discovers more about the Dark Organization, the nastier it will get. If you are a snowflake, I don't recommend you to read.

For now the publish schedule is a chapter on weekdays and two chapters on weekends. <<less

Synopsis :... more>>

The MC transmigrates into Narutoverse in the body of a civilian orphan. Luckily for him, the transmigration results in chakra being unlocked. Follow the story of the MC as he grows in power and stabilizes himself into the world of ninjas and trains to be the strongest.

Warning :
1. The MC won't be op for a long time. All his power would be gained via hard work and training over years (so if u want an op mc right from the word go, this one ain't for you)
2. No harem (probably no romance either)
3. There will be a lot of killing (maybe gore too, not sure if I can do gore right though)

What to expect :
1. Smart and consistent MC
2. Lots of training
3. MC manipulating the plot to his advantage
4. A lot of original arcs.
5. Plot will mostly stay the same (at least till Shippuden), but I won't repeat any scenes/dialogues that took place in the manga (as I'm assuming you've already read it).

Disclaimer : I don't own Naruto or it's characters (except the original characters I create)

PS : It's my first fanfic, I'm hoping it turns out good. All reviews and constructive criticisms are welcome. Grammar and English should be fine, but I'm not sure how good the dialogues and scenarios will be. Hopefully I'll improve as this fanfic progresses forward..

Waking up only to find that she's reincarnated into a world very reminiscing of a game that she used to play, Yuki is suddenly thrust into a worldwide conflict. To ensure the longevity of her newfound motherland, Yuki will have no choice but to flip this war upside down. If only to finally has some closure for past life also.

So buckle up, strap your helmet tight, and keep your rifle loaded and on safe. This is not your bog-standard story about overpowered characters on a battlefield, no. This is a story about warfare in all its bloodied glory, the leader that calls the shot, the soldiers that execute them, and the nation that's backing them up. And along the way, sprinkle those a healthy dose of beautiful maidens, lily/futa romances, and build a harem.

This is not gonna be a quick and decisive run, no. We're in this one for the long haul. Hail, Ironblood!

I did not own some of the world settings, but the remaining is all my own creation.... more>>

In any world there is no villain or protagonist instead there are people with various levels of luck and opportunities.

The final winner among them becomes a hero or the protagonist while the remaining people that became the stepping stones for the protagonist become the villains.

The villains are actually formed because of the mistakes of the so called good and peace loving people.

…………..

A good man that was darkened by the seemingly good people became a villain.

Finally after achieving his goals of revenge on the society he died happily while the people that killed him only has despair because of the after math.

When he opened his eyes he was already 2 years old kid that got his head bumped.

Most probably he died at that time and the soul of this villain replaced the kid.

The most shocking thing is that there is a strange creature taking care of him.

He has seen this creature in a movie in his previous life.

Can’t villain see a movie with his mistress?

This should be Kreacher.

Immediately the memories of the kid returned to his mind.

Immediately he understood he is the son of Sirius black and Mary Goldsman.

He is called Jonathan black.

He is currently in the black house under the care of his grandmother Walburga Black a pure blood enthusiast.

“Ding, congratulations host you have obtained the villain choice system.”

At chapter 121,

The tutorial world for the villain has completed.

The system successfully upgraded and was ready to choose a better function for the host by reading the thoughts of the host...

Before the system could complete calculating he opened his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him.

“Hey the people look familiar.

Wait this is Minato and Kushina, fuck no….

Why am I still in the Naruto world?

Wait this scene of them dying.

This means…fuck I am Naruto….”

Ding

The system detected that the host has too much emotional fluctuations.

So the system has decided to give the host emotional villain system.

The system would bring back the consciousness and memories to the host when he turns 3 years old…”

“Fuck you system…”

Darkness filled the consciousness.

This is the start of the novel,

A good man that was darkened by the seemingly good people became a villain.

Finally after achieving his goals of revenge on the society he died happily while the people that killed him only has despair because of the after math.

Congratulations host, you are the best person suited to become the host of the villain system.

Your first world of entry is the Naruto world.

Do your best to do all kinds of evil and suppress the protagonist and villains of the world.

What? I am the step brother of Fugaku but was living as an orphan.

My mother is from the Senju clan.

So that is how it is.

“Ding

Host make you first choice as a villain.

Option 1: steal the food from the orphanage’s greedy officials; you will be rewarded with the 100 villain points

Option 2: live a normal life and with the low quality food provided; your stomach would have digestion problems.

Attack on titans, fairy tail, and one piece, harry potter…….. These are the fan fiction worlds,

While there will be other world with urban, city, martial arts and cultivation worlds too after the Naruto world.

Especially when he saw familiar figure a heroine from anime from his previous world. At that moment, something rose in his mind. Kouta felt an annoying itch inside him.

And he was most likely a thick-headed deaf protagonist. With just that many girls liked him because he was just nice to them.
