I reincarnated as a demon lord and now I have to steal all the harem members so that I won't get killed.

My name is John, and I used to be a tester of the VR-RPG fantasy game. One day I got fired because robots and AIs replaced even my job. So I went to the pub and got wasted.... more>>

Just as I drank my tenth whiskey, my hallucination materialized as a young punk; told me I live in a simulation and sent me twenty years back.

What? It's this a simulation, or time-travel? Whatever. The goal? Get money and fix the future, maybe. How can a normal tester get rich, you ask? By exploiting THE game! But why the hell is my character locked as a girl priest? Will I change in the reality too?

My name is Charlie, and I am The Exploiter.

A forbidden relationship with the most popular girl in school is the last thing Chloe Lee expects when she begins bartending. Especially when she doesn't even realize she's gay herself. ... more>>

Desperate for money for her mother's surgery, Singaporean student Chloe Lee illegally serves drinks at a local bar. When equally underage RJ Shin--the richest and most popular girl in school--shows up as a customer, they already have something in common.

Their fateful encounter sends both their lives out of control. Chloe's money-making plan is soon derailed by RJ's insistent involvement, a growing hostility at work, and an unfortunate entanglement with RJ's family's politics. Worst of all, Chloe is slowly discovering her sexuality as she falls for RJ. Hard. Suddenly, sacrificing everything for money is no longer an easy choice to make.

As secrets unveil and feelings surface, Chloe is forced to reevaluate her life goals and decide what she is willing to sacrifice for love--and what she must sacrifice for herself. If she holds on to more than she can take, she might end up losing everything she values.

Life is hard, but love is harder.

Mavis is a lonely soul; after coming out, she lost the remnants of what had long been broken. Social anxiety, the fear of being judged and scrutinized, and her self-hatred are paralyzing her more and more every day. ... more>>

Eyes that seem lifeless, a motionless body, an aura wrapped in sorrow and depression; that's how she lies there in bed, the same way she does every night. Only the warm tears—glimmering through the full moon night—running down her face prove that she still has a spark of hope in her soul.

But with every night that she cries herself to sleep, the spark is extinguished further and further. Only the moon knows what happens then.

____

We see Mavis at the low of her life. Don't expect fluff and sunshine in the early chapters!

This story is about Character Growth, about a person who will get stronger and stronger. Who will find love and acceptance where she would never have expected it.

**Content Warning**

This story will be considerably sad in the beginning. Lots of depression and dysphoria, hate, etc.
But of course, there will be nice and fluffy moments as well. The road to get there, though, will not be an easy one.

There will be borderline/outright suicidal moments/thoughts. Especially the beginning will be dark and emotionally heavy.
It also contains lesbian and transgender themes, so if you don't like it, don't read it. Hate comments will be deleted. <<less

Maxwell got hit by truck-kun while trying to run to his special person ― but she was never in any actual danger. Instead, he found himself being sent into another world where he's given some abilities, items, and ... nothing. No mission, no major lifetime quests, no nothing to say what he 'had to do' or even 'should do'.... more>>

In a rambling discourse, the lazy god Keigo the God of Responsibility only said what his own problems were ― prayers from those who say one thing and do another, or a slavery magic being too 'OP'. Masters use and abuse their slaves any way they wanted, get them pregnant and abandon them to die ― even order them to their deaths so slaves cannot refuse. Only a deity can overrule or override these acts, so ... this lazy god is getting overworked and desperate for help. He set Maxwell down in a grassland bordering four major kingdoms, gave him a building system, a slave management system, and a 'skill reorganization' system. Then the aloof and passive god left Maxwell more or less to himself. In the end the God of Responsibility is ... _irresponsible_?!?!

Keigo isn't the only deity around ― the other one being Genki the Goddess of Activity ... who is currently frustrated with the lazy god. She too has reason to poke and prod at her husband to 'do something'. Because even if she has her own followers to manage, his passive nature detracts from their mutual godship over all peoples, and thus in recent years their number of 'followers' all over are on the decline.

Set down into a grassland, Max takes stock of all options and what he has. One scout from a kingdom comes to challenge him but is forced off; then a second group comes ― but it's a bandit party being chased by yet another kingdom's soldiers. The bandit queen first asks for safe haven, which Maxwell considers. Well, if he's gonna be here and has a building system ... he needs to gain villagers for his new village, right? RIGHT??? Also that part wolf bandit queen is looking at him like she might want to hold him for a while-

After bartering a ceasefire with the bandits and soldiers, he's left with twenty bandits, three quarters whom are female ― former adventurers or mercenaries. His major obstacle in the beginning is figuring out what to do in this world. The lazy god left a few hints as to slaves being mistreated; so Max wants to provide a haven for all he can find and obtain ― make a kingdom of his own-

- and do all of this ... by obtaining the abandoned or mistreated slaves, and treating them right.

Those who are as different from other men as the soul from the body or man from beast are slaves by nature. For them it is better to be ruled in accordance with this sort of rule, if such is the case for the other things mentioned. It is not advantageous for one to be held in slavery who is not a natural slave, for such a condition is sustained solely by force and results in enmity. ... more>>

Not all slaves are in chains.

Not all slaves even realize that they are slaves.

Fortunately (or unfortunately), it was not over for him.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself possessing the body of Lee Sujin, 28, a debt ridden failed idol trainee who had to become an entry level manager in a talent agency to meet her ends and almost died while protecting her star charge from a stalker.

She was only meant to be one of those people who watched with amazement and worshipped the "Heavenly Being" who walked on the same ground as her. The "Midas Hand" whose triumph knew no bounds.

But they both now had a debt-ridden family to take care of! Making the MC shine does not clear all their debts!!!

One was a game developer, another one was an idol manager. With their mismatched skills, how could they even hope to succeed?

Well, they couldn't just let the second chance they got in life go to waste now, could they?

Standing in front of Honda Shuuya was one of the well-known Maeda twins of their Inarizaki High. A senior two years older than her, until now—besides seeing him in the school grounds sometimes—she didn't have any contact with him at all.

So why was he looking at her with a heated gaze full of emotions, as if they'd spent years cultivating feelings for each other?

She couldn't help but feel wary.

"I'm sorry, I don't think you and I are possible."

"It's okay, can we be friends instead?"

"..?"

"—close friends. Best friends. Don't be afraid to depend on me."
