With the help of a friend, they will venture into the fantasy world, moving from brothel to brothel, experiencing elves, flame beings, succubuses, and more.... more>>

Of course, things wouldn't be so easy. They have no money after all. But there is a solution: getting into brothels that are contracted with the adventurer's guild(s). Instead of being paid with coins for completing quests... they can be paid in sex! Despite how nice that sounds, these brothels have a ranking system, meaning
Jackson would have to grow stronger and level up as an adventurer to constantly progress to greater brothels

They will be going into brothels in cities made of fire, underwater, in other dimensions, on floating islands, and many more. <<less

Author's Notes:

A world that used to be normal where people lived and died in an ordinary way. Then suddenly, gates appeared around the world. From where monsters are spewed out and - sigh. BORING!
It always has the same formula, every time, the world gets screwed up, a guy appears, usually from Korea, becomes overpowered, and does things that make the gods notice him while making a team in which he has one or multiple love interests.
Let's shake things up a little.
This story is not about a hero who will save Earth from the monsters from the dungeons.
This story is about someone who is born and lives in a dungeon.
Someone who was... more>> dealt a truly bad hand.
Someone who shall become a baron, a ruler.

Andrew Shade is an introvert high school student, gamer and streamer. At school he didn't stand out by anything, scoring average marks on everything and losing nights on games and streams, things he was good at. He lived his life like a side character until a mobile game changed his life, not his but everyone elses.
The game 'Oath of Orion' had stunning graphics and content for a mobile game, catching Andrew's interest. When the game started the whole world changed into the game, or to be more precise, the world is the same, but people became players and the only way to live is to pass the scenarios.
Let's see the adventure of Andrew as he changes from a side character to the MC while trying to survive, fight and control his corrupted power who is telling him to destroy everything in his path.

Kairos had an average appearance, while his mother was one of the most beautiful women on Earth. He couldn't understand how she had given birth to him. The only explanation he could come up with was that his father must have been an ordinary person, but he had never met his father.... more>>

Now, he and thousands of other people from all over the world were summoned to another world.

Kairos discovered that his mother had also been brought to this summoned place. So, now, he and his mother embarked on their journey in this new world.

In a world where heroes are known for their righteous valor and unfaltering kindness, Keiran Greystone shatters expectations. His life, once deemed ordinary and unremarkable, takes an extraordinary turn as he is unexpectedly transported to the realm of Eteria. Charged with the daunting task of saving this imperiled world, Keiran discovers an eccentric and seemingly ludicrous ability: the power to mimic others' skills through a rather unconventional means—spitting on their faces.... more>>

While Keiran harbors a burning desire to unravel the enigma of his past life, he embarks on a perilous journey across Eteria. Armed with his cunning and unwavering determination, he sets out to accomplish the seemingly impossible. This is no tale of the pristine and honorable hero, but rather an account of a pragmatic savior who recognizes that unconventional methods and unorthodox tactics are sometimes the keys to salvation—even if it means resorting to occasional face-spitting.

As Keiran challenges the norms of heroism, he proves that in a world on the brink of devastation, true valor can emerge from the most unexpected and untraditional sources.

(Caution: There's an abundance of face spitting. If you're not fond of it, it's best to stay away.) <<less

A man on a mission to conquer the world…of coffee!... more>>

Ryu, a 20-year-old shut-in working a dead-end job as a barista, dreams of a lavish lifestyle being waited on hand and foot (some cute maids would be nice). When a freak accident delivers Ryu an untimely death, he is unceremoniously transported to the world of Cerulia where knights, dragons, and faeries alike are not concepts of old or creatures of fantasy, but very real and particularly dangerous.

Ryu finds himself in the peaceful Kingdom of Kaffa, far from the conflicts of warring states. In this kingdom, the currency is coffee, status is coffee, and fame is coffee. It’s the dream of every aspiring Coffee Brewer here to join the ranks as one of the monarch’s Royal Brewers. It’s a place ripe for the taking with his skillset.

There’s just one catch: outside the kingdom lay untamed wilds that defy the laws of nature, populated by strange and savage flora and fauna. Sourced in these wilds, ingredients for coffee are difficult to come by, and foraging for them is a perilous undertaking. Can Ryu manage to navigate this seemingly treacherous lifestyle? Or will he succumb to the dangers that lurk within the Wildlands?

Testing out a new series. Feel free to comment with your thoughts as this is my first attempt at an Isekai/LitRPG (Please be nice). If people enjoy it I'll serialize it daily since chapters are fun and easy to write for me. <<less

Portia has lived a difficult life on Earth.
Born with a large birthmark covering her left eye, she is seen as 'imperfect' by her parents, unlike her sister Marigold, who can do no wrong.
Throughout her life, Portia has suffered tribulation after tribulation as she showed no talent in any subject she was tested for.
Her imperfections were only worsened by the environment that surrounded her:
Parents who demanded excellence; A sister who was wholly exceptional; and a society that mocked her efforts.
Every day is hellish when it seems that no matter how hard you try, it is ultimately meaningless.

One day, however, Portia and the rest of her class were suddenly transported to the world of Effigia.
Thinking this is a second chance for her, Portia looks upon the situation favourably.
Only to be cast away and sent to her death due to her lack of ability.

Left for dead Portia has nothing.
Her hopes of surviving are quickly destroyed when she is almost killed by a monster that appears from the surrounding forest.
Portia resigns herself to death as she loses against even the weakest of monsters: A slime

Only this encounter will not be her end; rather, it is just the beginning.

What if on everyone’s birthday, they got a skill card encapsulating their past year? And what if it's [Resist Hunger] seven years in a row?... more>>

Renalia had dreamt of gaining new abilities and lifting her parents out of poverty with her new Deck. But none of her skill cards help the family peat harvesting business.

Her Deck interests others though, as the Baron recruits her into his entourage. In a bigger town, she finds ways to make money, aided by her Deck’s hidden ability to loot skill cards from monsters.

The money helps but she has to learn that it does not wipe away all debts nor buy the happiness that she wants. And it certainly does not deal with the increasing appearance of monsters.

 - Slow-burn coming-of-age story with decks of skill cards.
 - Very light game mechanics with skill cards. No stat boxes, experience points, health, stamina, etc.
 - Young and weak protagonist, but proactive and not whiny. Eventually strong.
 - Please note that this story is more focused on characterization, rather than the deckbuilding and LitRPG elements. The latter is so light that I'm not even tagging it as a 'LitRPG'.
- Contains tragic events. Not meant for kids even though the MC is a child.

Weight of Broken Promises is an attempt at trying to tell a story of making a life in a hostile and decaying world. Expect an incredibly long story and a slow burn.

Relationships will be plentiful but often strained, tested, and outright messy. (Also queer. Did I mention queer?)

This is a story less about answers and more about making the most of desperate circumstances. Complete with a lot of feeling delicate and vulnerable afterwards.

Partial knowledge of most story threads are widely known, debated, and often twisted to suit agendas or perspectives. Most characters are working from fragments of an understanding or trauma most resonant to them.
