Once a revered professional gamer, Aaron lives a secluded but modest lifestyle; playing video games and occasionally working on computer programming in his off-time.

Janus Campbell can't fight. And unfortunately for him, that's the only way to survive.... more>>

Upcoming physicist Janus Campbell is trapped in the world of Tersaia, where shadow monsters lurk the streets, anyone can be monitored at any time and fighting is the best way to make a living; either through the Rumble Circuit, a world-wide ranking of combatants that keeps track of participants' wins and losses in competitive duels, or through slaying the constantly spawning Essencima that terrorize the population.

Unfortunately for Janus, he doesn't know how to fight. No special moves. No signature techniques. Not even a basic grab.

However, there are two people that might be able to help him out. Itzel, an avaricious woman with the ability to manipulate the wind, and Gurk, a man-crocodile hybrid of few words that can control ice, are the ones that will have to help Janus if they ever want to leave the harrowing alleys of Labrisson and rank up in the Rumble Circuit.

Earth was in a crisis. ... more>>

As a nexus point in the fabric of reality, it had to bear the weight of every universe, multiverse, and random plane of existence within its sphere of influence.

One day, the Gods of Earth started to panic as more and more realities began to pile on top of one another. The weight was beginning to become too much and so, they started to siphon it off onto the denizens of their universe.

This gave birth to comics, mangas, movies, video games, almost any piece of fantasy could be traced to some world out there in the void. However, the Gods knew this still wasn’t enough and that eventually, their Earth would collapse under the mounting pressure.

As they couldn’t just leave the Earth to fend for itself, they chose a mortal and gifted him a portion of their powers, before having him perform the task in their stead.

This mortal just so happened to be James.

Peter Parker: What? They’re making a game about me?!

In the year 20XX all online games suddenly got erased out of existence as if Thanos snapped his finger and formatted every existing game, then from its ashes the virtual-reality game [EPIC of THE GODS] came Online shortly after, The masses knew that the company behind ETG was the one responsible for such atrocity, but ETG was inevitable and is now the one and only game industry available to the masses. It was being distributed all over the world like a fuckin terminal virus and the world couldn't stop it. Its even safe to safe the leaders didn't stop it. They allowed such a shady game to proliferate into the market, destabilizing the entire gaming... more>> community.

WAIT THATS A SPOILER! Anyways, I was planning on making this a little bit comedic. Im not writing a fuckin doujin ok? I repeat this is not a doujin or an H.
Maybe it'll have a little sex jokes and sarcasm here and there but besides that I won't outright fuck up my MC... WELL I will fuk him up but... UGH forget it this FLIPPIN SYNOPSIS is a fukin SPOILERRRRRRRRRR, there happy? Now you know the whole plot of this novel with the flippin summary!

OH no... Anyways my writing style always gets influenced by external factors and stuff so if you feel that there is no consistency in my novel please Tell me... I'll improve... Im plannin on finishin this one... Once and for all.

You might've noticed the odd esports tag, well of course... After a little adventuring is done the PVP and tournament arcs are my specialty.

Also be warned things might or might not get a little geh, so if you flippin bombard me with homophobic reviews I will flippin copy-paste this synopsis and spam it on your review. hayzzzz with all the shit Im puttin in this synopsis I should've went with the concise route. Short simple and understandable... But oh well...someone told me that being concise and humble won't make people come and read my work.

Also judging by the cover ehhhh? well I don't mind you can read on your own volition, My drawing is as messy as my writing style but at least you get the picture with the cover right? RIGHT?

Hope that people actually reads the synopsis.

Some people get a second chance, late in life, and jump on it. Other people are on their third before they turn twenty.... more>>

One was given everything they wanted, and threw it away on principle. One earned their place, but could never afford to pay the price. One never failed, right up until it mattered. One encountered nothing but failure, instead helping others achieve success. One never believed themselves worthy. One is crushed by the past, afraid of what might repeat itself. And the last never had a goal to begin with.

But while nobody cared and no one was watching, they each decided to carry on in their own ways, even when that made things worse- and they did, usually, get worse.

Arrows Through Reality, or ATR, is the world's first full-immersion Virtual Reality game, a MOBA by Granduon incorporated that didn't blow its competition out of the water, but did provide a new entry point that had millions trying their new game. Two years later, the player base has only grown, and everybody knows the most effective tactics... but while a cutting-edge AI supposedly runs the game's balance, it hasn't patched anything a single time.

Well, the most effective way to do anything is subjective, right?

What would an ordinary gamer from southern California do if he ended up isekiaed into another world? A world where his modern scientific knowledge was useless and only his love for video games, anime, sci-fi/fantasy stories and engineering were the only reliable tools he could use to help him survive. ... more>>

In the summer of 2026 ZeeEye Gamers’ Guild launched Arcane Hunters Battle Royale (AHBR), a highly immersive and competitive video game that redefined professional e-sports forever.

A boy by the name of Josh is forced to move after his junior year in High School to a faraway place in the suburbs. He was forced to change school, and state, taking him far from his friends. ... more>>

After one year of being painfully lonely, he learns of the new full dive gear being released by Penumbra Inc. Not wanting to spend the summer wasting his life away alone, he is eager to play the accompanying game Order and Chaos: Magical Awakening, which supposedly teaches skills applicable in real life.

Little did he know just how important this game would become for both himself and the rest of the world.

What to expect:

- This will be a coming-of-age story; characters will mature and change over time

- There will be romance. However, it will not be a large focus of the story, more of a side element

- This story lacks a LitRPG tag for a reason, do not come in with the expectation of numbers. If at all possible, there will not be a system interface at all

- This story will build up the characters and the world they live in, be prepared for both

- The MC will be the main viewpoint of the story. I do intend there to be some peaks outside of this for the purposes of both the world and character building, but they shouldn’t be too often

- I do not intend this story to wholly focus on the gender-bend; it's a character trait, not THE character trait.

- This story is a power fantasy, but it is one that is heavily reliant on character growth for any real power

- It shouldn’t be too dark, particularly for the first few arks. However, when a particularly important event happens… well, let's just say there is a reason why it’s important

- this story will be cute at times; it will have moments of deep introspection; it will go to dark places; it will have loving and caring moments; and it will have all the important moments in between

--------------------------------

Warning: insecure author ramblings below, read at your own peril

Fair warning: I think this story will be fun, I have plans for it… but those plans are intentionally vague. This is because I have a tendency to plan out story ideas that seem really good, I’ll add lots of detail and make a really cool magic system. Then I will believe that the story concept is really good… And then will be afraid that I can’t live up to the potential of it. As such I have ensured that this story had no such problem by writing the first chapter the same day I wrote the concepts underlying the story. This does not mean that I don’t know where the story is going, it means that I know snippets of where it will go, as well as some events that will happen, but how they come together is for both you and me to discover.

With all that said, I think I have cooked up something interesting, if maybe a little less unique than I like my stories to be. Though it’s still petty different and incorporates some of the basic concepts I’ve developed over the years to differentiate from the pack. So I hope you're willing to come along for the ride, and if the warnings scare you, well I hope you’ll find you’re way back when this book manages to succeed (I hope)!

With all that in mind, I hope you're ready and want to read.

See you in the first chapter! <<less

Alan Thomas’s parents met while his father was stationed in Korea.... more>>

He spent his entire youth moving across the world from one army base to another. His irregular lifestyle was meant to come to an end with he started college, but during his freshman year. He was scouted by a Hollywood Associate Producer.

The role he was scouted for was Genghis Khan’s son in a movie about the famous Khan’s demise. His acting career ultimately peaked with this role, as he quickly discovered there weren't many opportunities for a Korean-American actor in Hollywood. Particularly one who was too white to play Asian roles and far too Asian to play white roles.

Because of his distinctive appearance, bulk, and stunt work, he was in enough demand to make a living. Most of his castings were as generic bad guys, but as he neared forty, he began to see the writing on the wall and started looking for other careers.

He was offered him a job instructing Korean Idol Trainees in acting, English, and Western entertainment culture by a former acquaintance.

Alan Thomas leapt at the offer, seeing the job as a chance to make easy money in his twilight years.

Who could have predicted that he would soon find himself the host of a system that would drag him into the darkest corners of the industry.
