Make the best of what you have, they said... But what I am supposed to do when the best I have are red-eyed freaks, a child who's supposed to be the jailor of the most dangerous being in the world, a snake bastard with serious boundary issues, and a whole world of super soldiers with licences to murder.... more>>

And you know the best part? None of them like me so much...

Oh shut it, old man! Take that Will of Fire and shove it up your—

Yeah, this second swing at life isn't panning out...

"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.

[I was reborn too weak to be an adventurer, so I opened an item shop by the dungeon instead!]... more>>

Reborn into a fantastical RPG-system based world, Fresh is offered a second chance at life. Initially glad to have escaped her old life, she quickly realizes that this new one might not be much better. Her new body is too frail to follow any grand dreams of adventure, her new mind is too dulled to allow any meticulous planning and this new, seemingly colorful, kind world is anything but.

Needing a way to survive in this horrible place, Fresh bands together with some unusual people and they take on an entirely new challenge; running an item shop just outside of the dungeon!

Summoned after an unfortunate accident in hopes they could protect the world from a coming threat, Ben and his classmates are gifted another chance at life. With fame and fortune promised to whoever is willing to fight for the sake of the world it doesn't seem like a bad deal, there's just one small problem. Ben wasn't blessed with any magic or combat skills, just crafting and enchanting. While the skills themselves aren't useless they also aren't seen as being necessary to the coming war.

Hi I'm ProbablyATurnip, just a guy doing some writing for fun. You can expect chapters twice a week from me on Sundays and Tuesdays while I experiment with figuring out the right number of commas to use at any given time. Let me know any thoughts you have I look forward to chatting in the comments

The Guild Master of Dewhurst has had a rough life. After many years of failure he rises to face his destiny and transform his decrepit Adventurer's Guild into the greatest Guild in all the realms. How? By filling it up with cute female adventurers who get powered up from making love to him, of course.... more>>

Using nothing but his massive intellect, a sharp sense for business, a pair of magic eyes and a dick blessed by the Goddess herself, he'll transform a growing harem of misfits warriors into a team strong enough to defeat the Demon Lord... If the over the top town of Dewhurst doesn't kill them first, that is. <<less

It was a freak accident. Someone ran the light at an intersection and before I knew it... my world turned black. But I didn't die then. Instead, I was forced to lament and regret over all of my failures. Lament about how this so-called genius was lower than dirt even at the very end.... more>>

And that should have been it. After my consciousness faded, I should have disappeared.

But I woke up.

A different world, another life. A fresh start.
This time, for sure...!

My bad habit kicked in. I've been rereading and watching Mushoku Tensei recently and got the itch to write this. Kind of self-insert, but not really. Extremely self-indulgent though, so if things don't make too much sense... er, sorry in advance?

I'm also trying putting this out on Webnovel too to see how that works, though updates there will be slower than here. <<less

WARNING!!! The mc of this novel is weak(mentally) and thus unlikable. The story also has a tag SLOW-PACE. Which means there won't be a lot of actions going on from the get-go.... more>>

Erlig, a senior in a respectable college lived his whole life without knowing such a word as trouble. Stable life with no accidents, great parents, and a good friend. Gaming was his hobby.
But when he tried a new game something happened to him.
He was trapped in a new world as the protagonist of this game. The worst is that he was cuckolded, humiliated, and beaten down. Not knowing how this happened he now forced to live a different life.
Those things, that looked like fiction in the game turned out to be much more real. He is forced to confront the dark and grimy world that looks much harsher than what he always saw. The only things that left in his changed world, is his meager knowledge of the game and his, own, self.
Given such a miraculous opportunity, he is forcibly taken out from his bubble and placed between a choice.
To break and fall or to forever change his fate, his life, and everything around him.

A little description to give a better understanding of what this story is about. It's my vision on a fusion of Korean fighting manhwas and Korean r-18 romance manhwas with the protagonist that is not typical to those particular works.
Author's note: As this is my first novel and English is not my native language any criticism would be appreciated.
Release schedule: At least one chapter every week.

Harutos life isn't going so well.... more>>

Sisters locked up

1 parent dead, 1 in a coma

Childhood friend/girlfriend cheated on him

Best friend slept with gf

He's single heartbroken but he's a nice guy. He's just wants everyone in his life to be happy.

Can he do it without becoming an asshole?

NTR protagonists always get robbed. They get the short end of the stick. Forced to lead a life of obsession for something they can't have, but what happens afterward?

The nice guy MC always doing the right thing and always gets disrespected and looked down on.

The waifu gets dicked down and drowns in pleasure while the cucked MC caters to her. But, what happens when love tries to steal the MC from her?

After reading over 100 NTR novels I have achieved NTR-NIRVANA and this is my attempt at a new genre. RNTR!

"REGRETORARE".... where the female that was stolen regrets her decision. This isnt about revenge, or the MC seeking justice. Its about a nice guy who was raised to love others AND DAMMIT HE'S GONNA DO IT.

(This is my first attempt at writing, beware of incest, horror, trap, and netorare tags. MOST NTR happens in flash backs because we are starting after it happened,
growth is very slow, the main point is MC didn't break and stopped taking shit from others.) <<less

I had a regular boring, lonely life. HAD as in past tense, I woke up in a box not really remembering anything until it happened a date, followed by a name and it all came to me.

I'm not a hero, I don't want to be one, yet... why is it fun to swinging through New York.... more>>

After dying, a man is tasked with destroying a corrupt empire and religion by the very gods that oversee this other world. The races have gone stagnant and need to be balanced again. Thanks to the Goddess of Chaos, he, now she, is starting from level 1 as a female vampire, the last of her kind. ... more>>

Not afraid to kill to protect what she chooses and with emotions and thoughts that sometimes run contradictory to themselves. Together with companions she meets or that are forced upon her by the gods, she must become strong enough to kill her enemies without becoming hated by the world. Eventually, creating a home worthy of a Vampire Queen.

Warning, this story will contain strong language, gore, sexual abuse, and mental illness. This is not an erotic novel and does not include explicit sex.

The vampires in this story are also not the traditional blood-crazed or evil vampires of some stories. They are simply one race among others, that have unique characteristics such as needing to sustain themselves with the blood of monsters, and a severe weakness to light. Please don't expect any vampires to go feral, lose their sense of reason, or have other similar reactions.

The story takes place in a marvel universe that is fusion of 616 in the comics and the MCU. Some of the Marvel characters are warped a little, but not much. Some of the situations that Marvel characters have to deal with would never happen in a comic or the MCU because it just wouldn't sell. BUT the characters do react in a way that is entirely plausible considering the characters' backstories. I don't correct actual grammar mistakes because I do them on purpose for writing purposes, but I do enjoy people correcting spelling/ editorial mistakes that slip through the software (I do go back and delete those comments though since they take up too much space). If you have comments, questions, or suggestions, then the comment section is the place (I do make super long or irrelevant comments into spoilers. I haven't had any actual spoilers, but I'll delete the comment if that's the case)

Li Yun grew up with a system that gave him useless gifts. He wanted a reward that could prove the existence of the system, but ended up with abstract gifts like culture.

One fateful day, a caravan was passing by the village of Teira, which had been raided and set ablaze by bandits. Within the burning rubble, a young woman found a baby, the sole survivor of the attack, and decided to take it with her and raise it as her own. As she was leaving with the little child in her hands, two falling stars lit up the night sky, and she named the boy Asterios. ... more>>

Years passed and he grew up in a caring and warm home, developing a passion for all magical beasts, choosing the path of a Summoner as his way of life. While his love and knowledge also grew boundless, his practical abilities clearly pointed out his complete lack of compatibility with that school of magic, but he never wavered in his resolution.

Follow Asterios as his life of perpetual failure suddenly takes an unexpected turn, after just seconds short of his death, a powerful summon answers his call and saves his life. Wait... doesn't it look like... A GIRL?! Are those animal ears and tail?!

"There is no Good and Evil. Only Power."... more>>

At the tender age of ten, Kagami Ken was thrust into a life of excruciating pain, burdened by a unique illness that haunted him relentlessly.

Years later, a severe episode renders him comatose for six whole months!

Good news, he wakes up. Bad news? An unshakable intuition foretells that his days were numbered.

Driven by an irrepressible longing to seize the moments he's always been denied, he sets about doing things that he'd always wanted to do, but never could. In a twist of fate, a surge of altruism compels him to make an astonishingly generous donation to an unsuspecting charity organization.

Little does he know that this act of kindness will capture the attention of a God-like being!

With aid from fate and his powerful acquaintance, he now finds himself reborn as Reivan Aizenwald — the half-human, half-warbeast baby of the Aizen Kingdom's royal family!

On his second lease at life, how will he choose to live? What goals will he aspire to achieve? What chaos will he bring to this new world!?

Join me on this captivating journey and discover the untold tale that awaits within these pages!

Synopsis #2:
Tired of cookie-cutter isekai protags whom you care nothing about?

Well, have I got news for you!

[Glimpse of Eternity] is a character-driven [Reincarnation Isekai] story where I — the author — aim to have YOU care about the main character!

Feel happy when good things happen to him! Become saddened by the tragedies that afflict him...

Laugh along with him as he laughs and cry when he cries!

What are you waiting for? Give it a shot!

====================================
Disclaimers and Miscellaneous Information:

[This story is quite a slow burner, especially since 200+ pages are dedicated to his life before getting reincarnated. It's like that thing One Piece did. Y'know, 25 years of filler? Goddamn. Except here, it's just 200+ pages.]

[Chapter Length: 2000 (It can only be MORE, never less. Except for bonus/extra or interlude Chapters)]

[Chapter Release: Sunday, 11:46 pm(GMT+8). Depending on certain factors, I may post more.]

[I have sworn to the heavens that I will write this story to completion. Unless my story ends before I can finish this one, I will continue.]

[If you absolutely cannot stand stories too similar to anime/light novels, then please don't waste your time and find something else. The story's not actually styled as a light novel, but it shares some themes. Hell, the MC is Japanese. The signs are already there, so don't ignore them.]
====================================
Hello! I'm Lire, and this is my first fiction! (Started on May 9, 2022!)

Correction suggestions are appreciated. Same with general grammar corrections. English isn't my first language, so it would help me improve.

I'll try my best to make as few mistakes as possible though!

Constructive criticism is also very welcome.

Anything to make my first brainchild, the best it can possibly be!

Never underestimate the guy who has so much Mana it should kill him...... more>>

Nathaniel's bus ride was supposed to be just another boring commute. But now, he, 23 fellow passengers, and a corgi named Biscuit are stuck in a "Hell difficulty" tutorial, battling monsters and leveling up.

Easy difficulty, anyone can handle. Normal difficulty, you've got to put up a fight to get by. Hard difficulty is where only the tough ones last. And Hell? That's where you have to be a bit out of your mind!

With his terrifying talent for mana manipulation, Nathaniel decides to invest every stat point into mana. Attribute imbalance be damned. It will either kill him before the monsters and his enemies can, or turn him into one of the most powerful beings within the system.

By some strange turn of fate, my soul travelled to another world when I died from stupid bravado. (I know, cliché, right?)... more>>

I woke up with a new body and an existential crisis, due to my soul merging with that of Raynold, the owner of said body and the youngest son of a duke, who was stupid to the point of being mentally challenged, was only good at swinging a sword around, and had passed out after seeing his erect dick for the first time.

However, although this world's pretty much a prime example of generic fantasy isekai, there‘s a catch. For the people here, fat means beautiful, at least when talking about females. Indeed, they like fat, greasy women, with huge noses, bulging eyes and puffed up lips.

So, what am I to do when I see slim, gorgeous girls being bullied and shunned by society? I save them, of course!

...I just didn’t expect them all to fall in love with me and be completely fine with sharing me!

A super-soldier is reincarnated as a child in another world, one full of new people, places, and opportunities.

Dave died and surprisingly reincarnated with all his memories.... more>>

Unfortunately, it seems to be earth. Japan to be specific. Naruki City. Hmm sounds vaguely familiar. Maybe it was on the news or something. Oh well. Worse yet he has to learn Japanese from scratch, he has no special powers or system. What kind of lame reincarnation is this? No isekai, no powers, no system? Why even reincarnate. Also it seems to be the past, no smartphone and computers are backwards as all hell. Things just can't be worse.

That is until he unfortunately dies again. However as he lay there bleeding out and slowly dying he finally realised he wasn't reincarnated on the real Earth. This was the world of Bleach and he was attacked by White and infected by his hollowfication poison. Can't he catch a break? He doesn't even get a chance to become a regular spirit and maybe a Shinigami. Just a mindless hollow.

"Survival of the fittest is easier said than done...why couldn't I have been reborn a bit bigger, huh?"

If waking up in a new world wasn't bad enough, an idealistic teen starts her new life as a newborn dragon not by being embraced by a loving family, but having to escape two hungry kobolds wanting some grilled lizard for breakfast. Now, status screens obscure her vision in a hostile forest filled with vicious magical monsters, as two concerning Titles welcome her to her new life.

Equipped with fragmented memories from her past life and the game-like mechanics of her new reality, the young dragon must face trials and tribulation, undeterred by the reaper's scythe inches from her neck. Despite her challenges, she is determined to find civilization. For nothing will stop her from fulfilling her one true desire: to become an Idol.
