"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.

Now their home is facing an invasion of monsters and extraterrestrial forces, but it's no longer their problem.

They're dead and soon to be reborn as monsters. Instead of saving their world, their job will be to destroy another one.

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

A misunderstanding allowed Orion to be summoned before the goddess of war instead of his best friend, who had initially annoyed the goddess. ... more>>

Luckily for Orion, the misunderstanding was cleared by the goddess’s sister, who also allowed Orion to understand the true reason behind his summoning.

With his mind made up to not only live as he pleases but also prevent the two goddesses from fading into obscurity, Orion’s soul safely transmigrated into the game world.

Upon waking up in this new world, Orion discovered he had woken up in the body of a prince who also happened to be a villain in the game.

In the game, Prince Orion Azvameth was fated to not only lose his half-sister and her mother but was also destined to lose his personal maid, who sacrificed herself for him.

As if the cruelty he was meant to suffer wasn’t enough, his kingdom was destined to be plagued with both internal and external problems while he was destined to die at the hands of the protagonist after being used as a puppet by a Greater Demon.

With all this weighing on his mind, Orion vowed to not only change his fate but also that of those he cared about.

However, his actions were bound to create a butterfly effect, and what better way to defy the odds than by ruling the world. <<less

Well... every story has the starting part, the middle part and the final part, the SCP part is in the middle, but we will start from... the start actually, no silly shenanigans this time :/
The protagonist will indeed go to the SCP universe and will do some things there, but most likely will be a short stay
_____________________________
Our protagonist find themselves in a unknown place in the middle of a forest, going with small steps each time, watch as they go on a adventure on new "places" and meet different people, growing both as a person and in power while doing so. Will they become somebody important in the grand scheme of things or just somebody powerful, or maybe neither and live in a secluded farm somewhere, you can find out as the story unfolds itself before you, but the only grantee is that they will become something else as the story progress.
____________________________
Useful information:
-This is a quite fast paced story
-Except for the things i created in this story, i do not own anything, like the character from other "places" for example.

Worlds visited:
First: is a Original universe and will take some time to leave it(some in universe time)
Second: Decided but won't reveal as it would be a spoiler

I will be not only be accepting suggestions for this story such as places and events to bring attention to, i will also do the same for characters you suggest to bring attention in the story, so your tips and suggestions will be very appreciated.

I will post irregularly a chapter a week if i am able to, but each chapter will have at least 1k words, and between 1,5k and 2k words if possible, i am both new and bad at this kind of stuff so if you have a good suggestion or you spot a error you're welcome to show to me in the comments :) <<less

The world devolved into chaos as a game-like system reduced the population to a series of statistics and screens. Confusion reigned as everyone struggled to survive in this new reality. Everyone but one man. Anthony Franklin had a secret. One that gave him an edge. He had lived through this exact series of events... 99 times in a row.... more>>

Anthony needed to take advantage of all he accomplished over the past centuries: every play, shortcut, and strategy, to save as many lives as possible by the end. He would contend with vicious boss monsters, elude the ever watching eyes of the system administrators, and watch his back from the scheming players that wanted the game to go their way no matter the cost.

In a world where every individual has their own goals, dreams, and fears, shepherding them won't be easy. Anthony must use all of his considerable experience to gain a powerful class and put the scared populace on the right track and take out threats before they become too big. There will be no more chances; win or lose, his 100th run shall be his last.

An enemies-to-lovers vampire romance... more>>

When the man I loved left me at the altar to run away with another woman, I thought there was nothing worse that could happen. I was wrong.

To save the family from financial ruin, my father married me to Viktor Volkov, a mysterious foreigner I only met once. I had to leave everything behind to live with a captivating but enigmatic husband.

Viktor's icy blue eyes were both alluring and intimidating, and despite the tension between us, I couldn't deny the attraction. As we navigated our complex relationship, the desire grew stronger.

One night, I made a shocking discovery in his bedroom: Viktor was a vampire. I knew I should escape while I could, but instead, I found myself longing for him to acknowledge and claim me as his own.

Could I really be in love with a creature of the night? If I fled, I'd lose the man I craved. If I stayed, I'd be forever changed. Would I resist temptation or surrender to my desires?

Bite Me Forever is a passionate romance set in Scotland during the Regency era. It tells the fated love story of Lucy, a strong-willed human, and Viktor, a mysterious vampire harbouring numerous secrets.
