A mysterious young man falls into a small unknown world after surviving the terrifying void, barely recovering. However, the heavens punished him with a mysterious seal, sealing his powerful and terrifying strength and even restricting his body strength, turning him into a weak mortal, a cripple in the end. ... more>>

Feeling somewhat desperate and uneasy, he will begin to explore this small but interesting and unknown world, realizing that not everything is what it seems and that much knowledge he had ignored in the past was more important than it seemed.

However, his heart that had been sealed and indifferent to almost everyone for his entire life, will gradually begin to open up when he meets people who will unexpectedly break the barrier in his heart easily but mysteriously, creating strong bonds that he never thought he would have had after the tragedy. Even memories from his childhood that had been forgotten or sealed away seemingly began to slowly emerge after a long time, realizing that his apparent origin was not simple either.

With his power sealed, but with his knowledge and experience of thousands of years will gradually push him to the peak once again, even discovering unparalleled secrets and knowledge to step into the heavens and succeed in becoming an existence above the universe!

It is my first novel that I started a long time ago and that I write with some slowness but always trying to give the best of me. I love very much these themes of cultivation and fights, romance and soft slices of life, so I decided to create my own novel that maybe could be enjoyable and charming for some or boring and disappointing for many, but it doesn't matter.

In the beginning you will find a lot of clichés and tropes similar to almost every novel, even in the first 200-300 chapters, because I didn't know how to give an original and unique start. But I'm always aware of your comments, criticisms and complaints, which help me to broaden my horizons and perspectives and give a better writing and story to the novel.

My writing and consistency at the beginning can be ugly with many mistakes, but as the story progresses I have learned from my mistakes and corrected a lot, even changing the way of narration a little as the story progresses and I write gradually.

PS: Don't get carried away by the names of the chapter titles, some will seem to say the MC's cultivation or that he will start planning or have objectives against others, which is completely wrong. Sometimes I can't think of a suitable title and just write the simplest one, hehe.

*****************************

While on a plane ride, Shuuta Fenton and his classmates are whisked away to a fantasy world by Holy Lord Meruria. She reveals to them that they are to be her Soul Warriors. Most of the students display extraordinary skills after opening their Soul Crystal, but Shuuta is the only one to not have any potential, being cursed with a 0-Star Soul.

After a sham trial to decide whether or not he can be useful to her, in which his own sister argues for his sacrifice, Holy Lord Meruria banishes him to the void, an inescapable realm of unending torment, to recoup the Holy Mana she spent on summoning him.

While his body was destroyed, Shuuta's desire for revenge keeps his soul intact long enough to gain the attention of an unknown entity. It alters his essence and turns him into a chimera, something viewed as a blasphemous abomination that grows stronger by consuming others.

After his soul is summoned again, and this time by the imprisoned Dark Lord of Tyranny, Shuuta frees her and throws away his former identity to become Lyudmila Springfield, the future Transcendent Dark Lord that will spill the blood of her enemies.

*********************************************

Content Warning: Throughout this story, you can expect instances of abuse, child endangerment, rape, sexual assault, and talk of suicide, amongst other things. Shuuta's past before becoming Lyudmila Springfield is especially dark and cruel. I will have Content Warnings at the beginning of such chapters

What to Expect - Overall: This is a story about revenge, of course, as well as Mila learning to be a chimera. We'll follow her on her ascension to power, and it won't all be sunshine and rainbows. She'll fail, she'll mess up, and she'll learn from her mistakes to take full advantage of her second chance as Lyudmila Springfield. Her growth of power will be mostly steady, though there will be some jumps here and there as she assimilates certain beings and monsters. And while she will grow to become the most powerful, that will take a long while.

What to Expect - Romance: Mila will have multiple love interests, so while it might technically be a harem, she won't sleep with anyone woman that happens to look her way. Since she's a chimera, Mila's lovemaking will probably get weird. The sex scenes? They will be explicit.

What to Expect - LitRPG: Yes, this is a LitRPG, but the primary focus isn't on hard stats, but instead on skills. Levels are still important, though, but don't expect a detailed update after every little chapter.

What to Expect - Tags: Some of the below tags won't necessarily show up until later. For example, while the main character has fun with male and female genitalia with their lovers, and maybe once or twice with both before swapping back to what they're famililar with, they don't officially become a futanari (and maintain that status/identity going forward until the end of the story) until Chapter Eighty-Five - Part Three. It does happen late, so I want to be up front about that.

Cover Art: It is temporary until I commission a cover for my story, but Mila will take a form similar to that in Arc 4. I found it on Pixiv. URL: https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/91478900 <<less

Erind Hartwell, a first-year law student with psychopathic tendencies and an obsessive compulsion to follow an arbitrary set of Rules, tries to live a normal life in a world where superhumans battle eldritch horrors invading minds. Society frowned on different, and she was content with playing along if the world didn't bother her. That was one of the many Rules she followed.... more>>

Unfortunately, the world couldn't help but bother Erind's normal life. On the brink of death, an entity offered powers to save her. Left with no other choice, she accepted it, changing into a new form—the first of many that'll allow her to bother the world that bothered her.

Slimes are stupid!
Annoying little pests that don't think about anything.
How would they? They don't even have a brain.
They don't even think about what they do, dissolving anything in their reach.
That's worse than a beast acting on instinct, that's just following a program.
A plague of mindless balls of goo.
If it were up to me they should all get eradicated.
At least that’s what I thought.
Until my life was turned into a mess.... 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?

I woke up naked and all alone in a summoning circle, the only clue to my past is a demon summoning book and the hazy memories of a world very different from the one I find myself in now.

After all, I'm apparently the Origin of Succubi, my actions will shape my new race in this world and all I know for sure is that I'm horny as hell.... more>>

I update twice a week on Sundays and Wednesdays!

Note: This novel contains a rape scene early on in chapter 8, this is not a frequent occurrence and it is not glorified or treated lightly. This is an event that affects the protagonist though so there are occasional references and allusions to the event throughout the series. The novel is loosely a genderbender but the Trans tag is for a character other than the protagonist.

The series primarily features anthropomorphic characters including the protagonist which may be a turn off to some readers. The references to things like snouts and muzzles happen relatively rarely though, so you may be able to picture the characters as monster girls instead.

5 chapters a week, one every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday (each minimum 1.5k)

What to expect:

- An edited story cleaned up around chapter 235 and then reposted

- 2 protagonists, leaning more toward one at the start and with more added later, but only ever one plot thread

- A power set where the main characters are intricately linked with each other, rising and falling as a group

- A fast paced story without much extraneous fluff

- Intrigue and manipulation (Describing one of the main characters, one of my readers wrote: I think this might be the first time I see a "reincarnated" spy in a webnovel that actually feels like she does intrigue and manipulation, instead of just solving all her problems through brute force)

- Dragon Ball Z level power scaling, with the main characters able to blow up planets by chapter 250

- A very, very slow burn romance

- Common webnovel tropes normally done poorly twisted for the author's amusement to make more sense and work in the story

- Main characters without the best morals

Content Warning:

One lead in the story is suicidal at the start and undergoing a pretty bad breakdown, while the other is possibly even more messed up, only better at hiding it. Their need for therapy is a plot point, and, given the nature and length of the story, they mess up a lot before they get better. <<less

After flubbing a powerful incantation, meant to give newly coronated Demon Queens the wisdom of their ancestors, Devilla Satanne awakens to memories of her past life as Jacob Divington, a human from Earth. Having gained a new perspective on life, she quickly comes to a rather horrifying conclusion: she's been a complete and utter brat! No wonder everyone hates her!... more>>

And then there's the fact that she's apparently been reincarnated as the villainess of Tower Conquest, a lesbian porn game with a surprisingly intricate plot. One in which the Heroine conquers Dimona Tower, turning Devilla's people against her in the process. In victory, the Heroine brings about a glorious age of peace between demons and humans for the first time in millennia. ...Which actually sounds pretty good for her people, come to think of it. Devilla knows her terrible behavior is beyond forgiveness, but maybe she can still make up for her past mistakes? She just needs to make sure the events of the game unfold correctly. Though there is one little detail she'd like to change - the part where Devilla herself is killed or enslaved!

***

This is a story about interpersonal relationships and inner struggles - a mix of comedy and inner drama. It follows a woman who has realized her own mistakes and doesn't think she can ever be forgiven for them, but who's still determined to try and make up for them. Devilla might be powerful, but there are some problems that can't be solved through magic and might alone.

It's worth noting that while this is a reincarnation tale, it's one where the current life's personality remains. Rather than becoming Jacob, Devilla simply learns from his memories and gains a new perspective. As such, no matter how much those memories have helped her change, Devilla feels that the mistakes she's made are hers alone.

In a world where humans and demons were constantly at war with each other, one that the demon queen brought ruin and destruction to wherever she sent her army of demons, desiring to invade and conquer the world, a hero was born!... more>>

A hero recorded in the legends that held the power to slay the demon queen and relieve this miserable world of the ruin and destruction that it had long desired!

Unfortunately, the demon queen wouldn’t accept the existence of a possible threat, nor would she easily follow her predecessors in dying at the hands of the hero. To stop her fate of dying to the hero, she sent her beautiful but lewd daughter to end the very existence of this hero.

However, when it truly came to the princess killing the hero, she decided against it! She had a better plan! Why not body swap with the hero and use his incredible powers?

She would live as a man, and the hero would live as a lewd succubus, forced to live a life as a demon and slave of the hero for eternity!

Now, will they decide to fulfill the purpose of a hero and slay the demon queen, or will they instead conquer the world and be feared by all? Either way, the journey ahead of them will be filled with lewdness and love!
