A group of rookie adventurers enter an ancient tomb in the hopes finding treasure
Within they found something priceless but it is not something they expected
Within lay an egg that held a species that existed since life began
A species wiped out long ago
A species that only lives in tales, songs and legends
A species that can become more powerful than any other
With the opening of the tomb the adventurers will release this creature out into the world
They will release me into their world
In my past life I was powerless and abused
Now I can become more powerful than any other
And I am very hungry...... more>>

Ann, a corporate slave in the modern life, suddenly couldn’t resist her body’s drowsiness and fell asleep after working non-stop for... who-knows-how-long. Her sleep wasn’t a good one as she was overly worried she wouldn’t be able to finish her work. When she finally woke up, she was greatly shocked. ... more>>

An unknown room, an unknown man with his icy expression, and moreover, the man addressed her as “Arlea”, and not “Ann”.
And then she finally realized. She somehow ended up in the body of “Arlea”—a villainess in the fantasy/romance otome game she had played in the past, when she still had free time to relax. To make things worse, she remembered that in the next one year, she—Arlea—was fated to die.

‘In such a situation, what should I do?’
‘Let’s think seriously of a way to overturn the situation?’
‘But hold on, what if I can’t change the scenario? Why bother?’

Having lived her days in the modern life as a serious and restrained woman who became a corporate slave to her death, Ann finally decided... to spend her additional 365 days to live well, and to cross out some of her bucket list that she could still do!

'If I can avoid my death, it's good. If not, at least I've enjoyed my additional time here in this fantasy world where magic and monsters exist, where I don't need to slave away my life ridiculously for the corporate!'

Little did she know that her decision would cause everyone who knew Arlea to be very surprised and alarmed with her change.
What happened to the villainous, hateful woman called Arlea? Why did she become like this? What is she scheming now??
Let's see how long she can keep up her pretense!

Can she avoid her death flag, or will she be able to survive more than the designed 365 days?

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.

General Summary

High School student Leila has always been a fan of fantasy novels. From romance to dark fantasy to humorous parodies, she's read them all. But being such a hungry reader has turned her into a critical one who is not afraid to dock a five-star novel to a three. One such novel to feel her wrath is a high-ranking, best-selling grimdark series whose ending made her want to puke. Angry about the characterization of the female lead turned villain of the week, she gives a scathing review and berates the author publicly. Going to bed right after, the teenager expected to wake up with a response and maybe some upvotes. 

Instead, she finds herself being cursed to live in the story she dunked on as the character she watched gets written into an utter dumpster fire. Cleo is described as a seductive and skilled assassin prodigy whom the main character fell for at first sight. The definition of the best girl and Mary Sue. But by the end of the series, she's number 100000 of a nameless harem of badass but sub-servant women, one of which's taken her place as the MC's fiance. Leila awakens right where she stopped reading and the worst scenario possible: her execution.

Leila must not only survive till the original series' main character, the crown prince, is five feet under, but she also has to take down every obstacle in her way. Because the plot isn't going the way it was planned, enemies are around every corner and if she loses, she never returns home. <<less

[I was reborn as a dungeon-core and forgot what life was really about until I remembered that it was obviously about violence! (So I made a grand colosseum for the greatest champions of humanity to fight to the death in)]
__________________________
Being taken from another world, the soul named Munera finds itself reborn as the beating heart of a wild dungeon – an entity known as a Dungeon-Core. With nothing to do but watch humans fight against one another and against itself, confused about its new purpose in this other world and ‘body’ – that is actually a complicated network of underground tunnels and chambers rather than a simple construct of flesh and bone –... more>> Munera comes to the obvious conclusion that life is about nothing else other than gratuitous violence and the assertion of dominance over lesser beings!

Taking this to the next level, it sets out to find out everything about fighting, combat, and the ascension to power and purpose through raw strength, cunning tactics, and sly strategy by creating a grand arena, a colosseum. In this newly formed underground labyrinth, the blood-hungry entity imprisons countless humans, monsters, elves, and all manner of beings with the intent to make them fight against one another with sword and magic and in contests of cunning and wit in order to prove the validity of the pursuit of purpose through raw power of many shapes.

Will its confused quest and methods succeed in pressing out the distilled essence of life from the bones of its new gladiators through the filter of challenges and nightmares? Or will it lose control over its prisoners as they band together with one another, its own domain crumbling with this violence turning its way instead? Find out in the latest novel from trending fantasy and isekai author D.M. Rhodes!

This story is a commission I was hired for by KnightAether and am now continuing by myself. <<less

A world of swords and magic, where the strong survive and the weak... revive. A world in which one's strength is determined not by birth, but by skill, creativity, gear, luck, skills, and your class. A world where your imagination is the limit, unless the sadistic system decides to say "haha nope" for no reason. ... more>>

There're more hidden mechanics and aspects of this world than anyone can imagine, each with the power to overthrow any semblance of balance in nature or in society. What happens when such a thing lands in the hands of a weak, depressed, and lost teen, who is almost entirely uninterested in this world?

And when the Demon Lord wants to have fun at the expense of the human race, what better way than to get them to kill one another and, in doing so, turn them into demon-like beings? Perhaps make them fall into a sense of complacency before shattering their hopes, dreams, and peaceful lives with such a death game?

"I only started playing because it was my brother's last wish, why did I have to get trapped in a years-old VRMMO after the 2.0 update?"

Updates will be slow and sporadic (you can see when each of the chapters was released so far, it'll be like that in the future too lol), due to long-term health issues. I write as a means to pass the time when I'm up for it, so if I'm feeling bad, I might not even get a single word into my drafts for a month or two, but I'm not dropping this or my other main project, ever.
On a different note, I have plans for 6 books of this story, so... we're in for a long one here. <<less

To heal the sick, and save those from near death; anyone would desire such power. Vernisha is a battle healer, but unfortunately, she can only heal monsters—or rather, only monsters can endure her healing powers without dying.... more>>

Vernisha lived her whole life being looked down upon, hated, and feared because of her powers, something abnormal. She accepted it, but she hated it. When the day finally came for her to become an adventurer, she made up her mind to become strong—so strong that no one would ever disrespect her again.

With her healing powers and monsters under her control, she will climb to the top. After all, what is scarier than a monster that keeps getting back up? <<less

Fate Grimsever was just your average filthy rich young master. When Fate was killed by Truck-kun while playing a video game called Final Countdown.... more>>

Fate could not believe the irony of dying to a video game. Well, he should have known better since Fate is an extremely paranoid and prepared individual.

Now Fate finds himself reincarnated into the novel world Blissful Paradise. Where he plays the mob character of the hated Duke Fate Grimsever.

Someone who shares the same name as Fate. In this world, the hero Nimrod Bloodsworn is surrounded by all kinds of green tea bitch heroines.

These heroines are simply cheap substitutes for the real discarded heroines. The author was not happy with how powerful he made them so they were discarded and disgraced like trash.

But these older discarded women are Fate's targets for his harem. Because Fate is the legendary MILF Hunter.

Someone who will soon surround himself with some extremely powerful but mentally unstable women.

But Fate would not have it any other way. Now Fate has decided to just sit back and relax as his new harem brings the world to the brink of destruction.

All for the man who healed them in mind, body, and soul. Well, maybe not so much the mind part. But that's just a minor detail.

When Kai woke up, he was the cursed villainess of a bad otome game, Medusa Demonias. He was pretty upset about this development, but given the fact that he was not at the Imperial palace and instead being given to a witch to raise, he assumed he was in a childcare fanfiction. However, when he turned ten years old, he discovered that was not the case.... more>>

After being thrust into the story, he has to come to terms with the fact that he's now an Imperial prince and has to act like it. He does not want to act like it. He wants to run away. It won't be long now until he has to be sent to the Holy Empire as a hostage, and attend the academy. Really, though, he's not all that bothered by it. He already changed his gender, and all he has to do to avoid being put to death is not act like a prick. This can't possibly go wrong.

In a world ruled by female dominance, a true matriarchy, where 'Essence' determines one’s societal standing from birth, Eric Leonhardt awakens. Carrying memories of his... more>> previous life as Haruki Sawano and a love for the otome game "Eclipse of Destiny," he finds himself in a realm that mirrors the game's matriarchal structure and fantastical elements.

As he navigates a world fraught with danger from Rift-born creatures and complex social dynamics, Eric's journey is a delicate balance between the pursuit of power and navigating the otome-themed intrigues of love and alliances.

It was a hot night in August when the unthinkable happened. A night that would go down in history as the best thing that had ever happened to some, and the absolute worst event possible for everyone else. Portals appeared on Earth and people all over the world were transported into video game worlds. Some players obtained great power inside the portals they entered. Many others were not as lucky. ... more>>

Due to strict parents, Redmaw was never allowed to play video games. Raised in an abusive and neglectful household, he was rarely allowed off his parent's property in rural Connecticut. With most of his knowledge of the outside world learned from outdated books, he struggled to survive the chaos caused by the portals. Unfortunately for him, others had already set their sights on the poor Iksar. Surrounded on all sides by new characters that competed for his attention, Redmaw needed to select his companions carefully. The decisions made by him, and those that surrounded him, could have disastrous ramifications for the entire planet.

This story will follow Redmaw as he travels around Earth and enters portals to obtain items and power. The video games played are REAL games that exist in our world right now. Redmaw starts off in an Everquest portal, but any and all games are possible in the future.

This story will be dark. Humans that are spontaneously granted super-powers are already at high-risk of abuse. Add in the collapse of the government, the lack of clean water, the disappearance of easily accessible food, and the world will quickly delve into barbarism. Like a zombie apocalypse, but with fewer zombies. Players in this world will either be strong, obey the strong, or die. Death is not necessarily an escape either, since Clerics with Revive magic and Necromancers with Raise Dead spells exist now. Many characters will not find an escape from this hell. For some, death will be a luxury that they will never be able to afford.

This story is meant to be interactive. Readers can suggest video games for Redmaw to visit and gain benefits from.
Readers are encouraged to dig deeper into the story to unravel the mystery occurring behind the scenes, but it is NOT required. Not all portals Redmaw enters will be crucial to the story, but some of them are incredibly important for his future. <<less

After the death of his father, Shen Zhihao succeeded him as the leader of the Yinhai sect. A prestigious position that should bring admiration, and perhaps envy, from his peers. Due to his beauty and demeanor, everything indicated that Shen Zhihao would become a role model for the rest of the disciples.... more>>

However, few anticipated that Shen Zhihao would be a two-legged rat (not literally) who didn't hesitate to impose his will (literally) on all those he considered inferior. A true tyrant.

A dictator who did not foresee that the day would come when his banished older brother would return from the dead to seize his throne. And, finding himself without a clear way to defeat him, Shen Zhihao would have no choice but to venture into the unknown, traveling to another universe to find the chosen one who could assist him in his fight.

He did not count, however, on the fact that once he arrived in this other world, the promised ally had been dead for thirteen years. And that, in his place, there was only an individual named Zhao Xian, a descendant of the man who was supposed to help him, and whose combat skills could be rated between zero and none.

As if that weren't enough, the portal through which Shen Zhihao arrived on this mission of seeking help closed, and with no way to communicate with his clan, how could he return?

Will Zhao Xian be his salvation after all, or on the contrary, will they both end up being each other's downfall? <<less
