Sabrina was murdered on an ordinary night. When she opened her eyes again, she wasn't home anymore. A newborn in another world, her first sight was a glowing bar floating above her mother's head. In this realm, people live and die by their class. Most get one path and never stray from it. But Sabrina's new power breaks the rules. She can party up with others, share strength, help them evolve, and even merge classes into something new. Every bond she forms changes her, shaping what she becomes. Every dungeon, every ally, every fight pulls her further from the frightened girl she once was... and closer to something the world has never seen.

Luna was raised in the Elysian faith to believe that maiaaks are monsters that threaten humanity and must be destroyed. When she is ordered to escort a maiaak prisoner named Lyzal to Athanasia to face judgement, she obeys. But early in the journey, Luna encounters another maiaak, named Saros, and hesitates to kill him. Her compassion leads to a reluctant alliance, bringing him into their already tense group. As the three travel across the countryside, they notice shadows moving and strange light that feels more like judgment than safety. These haunting forces seem drawn to conflict and fear, stalking their every step and complicating the already dangerous mission. They also learn that these forces aren't the only things that haunt the living and that there are darker secrets in the world that even maiaaks fear. By the time they reach Athanasia, Luna's purpose has changed. She carries the truth she has witnessed and seeks answers from the Solarch himself. But the closer she gets to the heart of her faith, the darker things become. She questions whether Elysian is truly guiding humanity, or if the Solarch's vision for humanity may be far more monstrous than the maiaaks she was taught to fear.

Jake Rivers was always a parasite. He just didn't know it could be literal. A forgotten god caught him cheating at carnival games and decided to make the metaphor flesh. Now Jake is microscopic. Blind. Starving. A brain-eating worm in a fantasy world where magic is real and death comes from inside. Every creature he enters dies within weeks, neural pathways consumed one memory at a time. But first, they become legend! Jake takes one ability from each host. They gain all of his. Symbiosis and murder, always together. And he's getting addicted. Simple animal thoughts were bland. Complex minds are intoxicating. Intelligent consciousness tastes like nothing he's ever experienced. Every memory he consumes is better than the last, and the hunger grows stronger with each kill. The locals call it the Whisperer's Blessing. Power and death, arriving as one. Naga serpent-lords take notice of the pattern. But Jake is seeing something they can't: he's been everyone. Both predator and prey. He experiences reality from every angle, and reality is breaking. Magic is corrupting. Concepts are bleeding together. Something eldritch is pushing through the cracks between worlds, and the scattered civilizations of Ouroboros can't see it coming because they've never been anything but themselves. Jake has been everything. Knows languages no single being should speak. Understands magic from perspectives that shouldn't exist. He's becoming something unprecedented. Something necessary. Something monstrous. The god wanted him honest about what he was. Be careful what you wish for. This parasite might be the only thing that can consume an apocalypse. Dark progression fantasy. Visceral body horror. An addict climbs the food chain toward godhood.

Its words speak of salvation - of seven lost souls who once embodied virtue but turned to sin. Now, hunted by corrupted gods and haunted by their own pasts, Lysander and his companions must journey across a world ruled by darkness to redeem the damned... or die trying. "To save the world, he must redeem the fallen."

The main character is already decided from the very beginning. No matter how hard a background character tries, that's all they'll ever be-just a background character.

The Holy Sword, destined to descend upon the Hero of Prophecy, came to him instead. No talent? No money? Not even a noble background? Fret not!

Life was never the same since the pandemic for Maya. She broke up with her boyfriend, became distant from family, and now lived in a tiny studio apartment doing the same routine work for measly pay. The only ember of light in her terrible life was her favorite video game, Synthetic God, into which she had poured her heart and soul for the last two years. So much so, one could say she was the most powerful character in the game. So, when she found herself in the body of her character, she was ecstatic to say the least. However, the feeling didn't last long, for the world of Synthetic God is divided into two: one ruled by the Order of Gods and the other by the Institution of Mankind. Neither of them like powerful individuals. It just so happens that Maya chose a class that is hated by both factions. Within the rules of the game, Maya was just another character who played a role in the story. But now embodying the character whom she loved so dearly, her powers rivalled those who sat atop the hierarchy, and the gods do not like being challenged. While her journey is fraught with danger, Maya's true battle is on the inside. Burdened by the memories of her past and the events of the present, her two worlds collide. Amidst the chaos, Maya must confront herself or else risk becoming a husk of her former self. Chapter 5 days a week. Every Mon, Tue, Wed, Thurs, Fri

POWER ON is a character-driven fantasy epic about destiny, identity, and the clash between ancient powers and modern hearts. Blending explosive elemental battles with quiet human moments, the story follows Juichi Nakamura-a young man thrust into a world not his own, bound to forces far older and more dangerous than he can comprehend. Juichi isn't a warrior. He's not gifted with natural charisma or perfect judgment. But when he arrives in an unfamiliar land, chased by shadows and haunted by fragmented dreams, he learns he is the vessel for not one, but multiple Elemental Dragons-beings of unimaginable power tied to the primal forces of fire, wind, water, and earth. This is an impossibility in a world where even bearing one elemental spirit is enough to change the fate of kingdoms. His existence upsets the balance. Some see him as a miracle. Others, a threat. And at the center of it all is Juichi, the boy burdened with too many dragons and too few answers. But this isn't a tale of one hero saving the world. It's about people choosing to stand, even when their world no longer makes sense. It's about navigating pain, embracing uncertainty, and daring to love when everything seems destined to fall apart. POWER ON excels in mixing moments of light-hearted comedy-like nosebleeds and awkward confessions-with moments of intense drama, revelation, and cinematic tension. It's a world where enemies may become allies, forgotten names may shape the future, and even monsters may dream of becoming something more. It's not just about defeating evil. It's about asking: What makes someone worthy of power? And what do they become when they finally have it? POWER ON invites readers to follow Juichi and his companions not just on a journey across landscapes-but across identity, memory, fate, and choice. And as the winds shift and prophecies stir, one truth becomes clear: This world will not survive unless its forgotten past is brought to light.

This is the story of an Insane guy trying to achieve complete Immortality and true Invincibility a.k.a. Eternal Life. "I wish the world gets infested by zombies," "I wish I got reincarnated in a magical world." "If only I had the power to turn back time." Everyone has probably had these kinds of thoughts at least once in their life; Aleric was the same, but not for long. He decided to work on himself, and soon he became content enough to not dream about a zombie outbreak, rich enough to not dream about regression, and studied science enough to not be seduced by the wonders of unrealistic magic. But complete immortality and true invincibility were still nowhere near attainable. Decades passed, but the wish didn't come true, but what did come was an opportunity. An opportunity to break the limits of humanity, to change the world instead-into a place where the strong, with a flick of a finger, can split mountains and seas; a world where a single human can eradicate a whole planet; a world where no nuclear arsenal can land a single scratch on you; where immortality is not just a legend but a goal. What to expect : -- This story has everything and when I say everything I mean everything, probably all the tags you can find here, it is also very long (probably around 5k+ chapters) -- Nearly everything in this story has proper logic and lots of thinking behind the reason, good amount of time has been spent on worldbuilding. -- Smart MC goes from weak? to strong? -- Contains both extreme & unflinching and mild moments, along with necessary detailed descriptions. Unlike your usual LitRPG, this one goes both hardcore and softcore depending on the part of the novel. So beware of baffling ups and downs -- LitRPG elements from around third chapter -- slow burn probably, the story starts a bit slow. The first few chapters are alright but until the years of the old arc is over it is quite slow. So please bear with it till then. (around 15 chapters)

Do you know your own worth? This story is about a young boy who grows up in a small port town. Trapped in the violence of everyday life he grows learns and travels discovering new things new adventures and new horrors

Geya was just an ordinary student when her life came to an abrupt end. On a rainy night of her birthday, of all days, she was crossing the street when a truck driver, drunk and drifting into sleep, lost control of the wheel and struck her. In an instant, her life was taken. But death wasn't the end. For a moment she opened her eyes, she found herself staring up at a sky full of shimmering stars. In that quiet, endless night, she whispered one final wish on her birthday: "I... want to... live." And that wish was granted and Geya was reborn, not as a human, but as a seed of the World Tree, Yggdrasil.
