Outcast. Freak. Disgrace. These are names Prishe Onva heard on a regular. It was the lingering curse of being who she was. She was all that she shouldn't be in Asteris: intelligent, independent, half-breed. After moving to Daichi, a distant continent, to start anew, things don't seem to change. She was Asterian bred. A cold-hearted murderer.

Her only hope to any form of acceptance is if she does the impossible: become a part of ARTEMIS, a league of inventors that is admired by all on her planet.

But just when things begin to look up her, a series of murders leads to the mass exodus of an ancient race that she holds ties to. With no where else to go, she stays with the other fearless people of her race and finds herself tangled in the mess.

And it seems her professor is the only one who can help her.All Rights Reserved

Til Death Tears Me Apart Once Again [Discontinued] by Neverxinagain

"If I'm going to die anyway, there's no point in trying to live." A typical reincarnated into a villainess story, except the protagonist isn't your typical 'I want my happy ending protagonist', but a death seeker. XX 《'Til Death Tears Me Apart, I Will Always Love You》is a very successful otome game. As much praise and admiration the game recieves, it is also, however, notorious for being absurdly difficult. One wrong step and the player would be drowning in an ocean of death flags, for both the Heroine and the Capture Targets. Anything short of perfection wouldn't even get the player a glimpse of a happy ending for the Capture Target the player chose. Enter me; Just a simple, normal girl reincarnated into a game as dangerous as that, as the villainess no less. Destined to die no matter what, I think there's no point in me trying to fight fate. If I'm going to die regardless, might as well die sooner rather than later. But that desire for death causes more than just a few changes to the definite plot; From little ones that have no effect at all, to life changing ones that may destroy the world of Arraxus. So the God of the world makes a deal with me: They'll give me a peaceful and happy afterlife, as long as I get a happy ending for myself. "Let the game begin!" -- Discontinued.

The Villainess Won't Play by IronyDreams

Selena Ashford's life was nothing but a monotonous shell-until one fateful morning, she wakes up as Seraphina Ashenveil, the villainess of the very fantasy romance she despises: Whispers of Hearts. Known for its twisted plots and the inevitable death of its villainess, Selena's new life is a nightmare. Ugh.. Why this stupid book!? As Seraphina, she is surrounded by two figures who mark her doom: her ruthless father, Aldric Ashenveil, and the male lead, Caius Valerian, whose cold indifference promises only betrayal. But fate throws her an unexpected twist-she crosses paths with Killian Valmond, the second male lead, a fiercely loyal and annoyingly arrogant knight who dies in a most pathetic yet stupid way for the female lead. Tsk, Cliché. But he is not leaving her side. He sticks with her like she's something which either needs to be guarded or protected. She can't tell which. Stupid Man. Seeking refuge, Seraphina hides in a small village, where the kind-hearted locals accept her without asking questions. Despite her growing frustrations with Killian's persistent presence, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about her new reality. Something is off-no one seems to be playing by the rules of the story, and the characters seem eerily alive, drifting away from their roles as if the book itself was a mere myth. Or Maybe.. Is it? Slowly, Selena uncovers unsettling truths that suggest her life, the worlds, everything might be a lie. As the lines between fiction and reality blur, Seraphina must decide if she can carve her own path to survival or if she's destined for a fate far worse than the book ever predicted.

Villains Don't Say No: Villain Has A System by mynowrites

The chilling rain mirrored the sudden, bizarre storm that stole her friend, swept away not by floodwaters, but a truck-a memory that now haunted the young girl, a girl with a secret: a compulsion to steal. That single, tragic accident was just the tremor before the real catastrophe. Shaken but still whole, her reprieve was brutally short-lived. A devastating, seismic shockwave tore through her world, a cataclysmic earthquake that didn't just rattle the ground, but swallowed her entire lineage. Her family-gone. Her life-extinguished in the rubble. But the darkness wasn't the end. Her conscious mind faded, only to snap back to life, reborn into an existence utterly unfamiliar and cold. She is a survivor in a world she doesn't recognize, her very essence forever altered by the sudden, violent losses of her past. She carries the scar of the secret thief and the ghosts of the wreckage-a woman now navigating an unknown landscape, burdened by a history that threatens to pull her back into the grave she just escaped. Who is she now? What dark purpose led her to this second chance? The mystery has only just begun.

Already Inside by Distiller85

The year was 2115. Space travel had been pioneered beyond what anyone in the Old World could have realistically imagined. Humans spread far and wide, across planets and solar systems, transported by robust starships. A new age arose for humanity, one filled with hope and potential. The humans silently swore that the mistakes from the Old World would not be repeated. The unfortunate truth was that one had already been made. A burning curiosity for what is not known, inevitably leads the beholder into the jaws of danger. But danger didn't immediately come then, it waited patiently, until the perfect moment. Among many humans stood a few. Rather usual humans, ones you could find anywhere. Like many, these people flew among the stars, in hopes of safety and stability. What you are about to read has been verified as a first-hand account from one of these individuals. While he is no longer with us, he had requested for his documentation to be published after his passing. --------------------------- Already Inside is a novel adaptation of the online social deduction video game, Among Us.

"Why bother? you've survived so long and you're just going to end it by your own accords? simply idiotic"
