When my curiosity got the better of me in the afterlife, I ended up reincarnating with several things I wasn't supposed to have, like my memories. But I got a second chance at life, and I wasn't going to waste it. Making a nice home in a dungeon, adopting an abandoned girl as my little sister, for someone who died alone, poor, and full of stress, I had everything I wanted and all the stuff I hated were gone.... more>>

But while my back was turned, immigrants and refuges?! Land management and negotiations?! Why are you making a country in my backyard?! And everyone wants me to be the leader?! And while I desperately tried to get peace and happiness to my new life, now someone wants my admin powers?! <<less

He had lived a good life. A man who traveled the world, saw the cultures, learned the languages. For a period, he had even discovered a historical preservation of a martial art practiced by the Samuri and Ninja in Japan that caught his interest. He learned it until he had attained a level of mastery worthy to instruct those back in his home in the United States.... more>>

Before he settled down to become a teacher, he first became a nurse. It was too late to go through the intense schooling to become a doctor, but he had been inspired by the Indian and Chinese traditions of the strong link between the ways of healing and the ways of body mastery that are the core of the martial arts.

He settled down and had his family, opened his school, and taught several students. It was a good life, his 60 years. But then, when he had finished the children’s class one day in which his own grandaughter was a student, he decided to take her for icecream. That was when it all went wrong.

He was fine after the accident. His grandaughter… was not. In that moment, someone claiming to be a fallen goddess promised him the ability to take the consequences of his mistake entirely onto himself. He would die, his grandaughter would live on in perfect health. In this moment of weakness, he could not possibly refuse.

The last thing he knew in his life was that his precious granddaughter had been saved. The first thing he knew in his next life was that he was in the womb, and he was a twin. A twin he would later discover was the very goddess who helped him to save his granddaughter.

Hermit’s Note: My take on the kingdom building genre, which often suffers from weak characters, low stakes and contrived challenges. Buildup will be slow, with Book 1 focused on business managment, Book 2 focused on a battle for succession and only Book 3 getting into the depths of kingdom building. There’s plenty of inventions before that point though, so if you’re here for the clever use of modern tech you’ll find quite a bit even early on.

Sam Serra was your typical loser. But somehow, he caught the attention of the most popular and gorgeous girl in school, which ultimately caused his death. ... more>>

He reincarnated in a new world, but a world of sword and sorcery. Being a reader of fantasy novels, he realized that he was in one. However, the rules of the world applied to him differently.

For one, he did not have the same abilities as the local people, who cultivated special abilities according to the skills they were born with. Instead he found himself choosing skills like in a game, with typical D&D skills.

However, as he chose to be a mage, he found that the spells he chose did not work the way he expected.

For example, one of his skills is to summon familiars. But as the world and game system had no reference to summon any familiars, it summoned instead characters from movies or TV shows that he had watched.

But in order to summon familiars, the game system was unsure of how to do so, so it searched the only way humans could procreate.... sex.

And that was one of the many differences in how his skills would work.

Not only did Sam now have a tremendous advantage in this world, but due to the differences in understanding by the game system, his time in the world would not be as straightforwards as expected. <<less

Are two heads better than one?... more>>

For Kevin, who is sharing a body of a two-headed ogre, the answer is a resounding no. Hell no. That's because the other head is a cunning character with a mysterious past she doesn't want to reveal. Whether through sorcery or subterfuge, neither had any choice in the matter. They are quite literally stuck with each other and need to survive in a world of monsters.

This is the story of a teenage girl, Cassie Smith, who, after her death, was recruited into Universal Mercenary Company. Something akin to a ‘Rent A Hero Service’, this mercenary company is one which offers its services to deities, devils, and basically anyone who can afford their service fee.... more>>

To put it simply, they commit the acts which the gods or devils can’t afford to be bothered with doing themselves. Stopping apocalypses, getting rid of universal troublemakers, killing extremely overpowered, non-affiliated of course, demi-gods, etc. Sometimes, they are even tasked with ensuring that a planet falls apart or that chaos ensues; naturally, to them, it is just another job. If the paycheck is big enough, anything is possible.

This story is about how Cassie goes about coming to terms with her new job, serving as a supernatural mercenary for the first time, to be exact. Her first assignment, after going through 10 years of training, was quite simple.
Assassinate a few big name officials. Be it Presidents, Mayors, Governors, Senators, Generals, etc. It did not matter, she just had to kill them and get away with it.
Next was killing off a few of the Planet's Demon Lords. Naturally, those would be much more challenging in terms of elimination.
Lastly, she just needed to make a name for herself in any way shape or form. Going down the line of a hero, or going down the line of a villain. It was up to her to decide whether she wanted to become this world's saving grace or become this world's worst nightmare.

With those few select objectives assigned to her, she was launched into this Fantasy like world.
All she had at her disposal was a biological assistant A.I., a high potential in Shadow Magic, and an itchy trigger finger.

This is the story of this mercenary’s first time in another world. <<less

It seems I've reincarnated into a fantasy world as a cat. What now?... more>>

This is my first publically published story, and I would love feedback in any form as I have no idea how well the quality of my writing holds up.

This story will have light litRPG elements, though I won't dig into numbers much, since I don't enjoy fiddling with them.

The tone will be generally light, and I willl probably try to throw some comedy in there as well. The beginning will be Slice of Life, and unless I come up with a longer plot that I like it will stay that way. <<less
