When Benjamin Rhine is reincarnated in another world, he thinks it's just another video game. Everything reminds him of the VRRPGs he had played over the years, from the HP bars to the monsters roaming the world.
Unfortunately, nothing is simple. Ben quickly finds himself in one of the biggest messes in the world he's in, along with several other idiots who know to do nothing: A girl who knows nothing about video games, a mage who can only make things explode. The most (and only) competent member of their group is a soldier from the militia. In order to prevent the complete destruction of their new world, they must defeat a being known as the Demon Lord.
He quickly finds out that this so-called video game is a game, sure-but one of survival. Because here, death is permanent.
You get one chance. Use it wisely.

Rimelion: The Exploiter
What is reality? I was John-now Charlie, a woman with a VR game tester's cunning and a professional whiskey enthusiast's attitude. But then AIs have risen, and my job evaporated faster than last night's drink. Just when I hit rock bottom, this punk kid-barely old enough to shave-dropped a bombshell: "Reality's just a simulation." Sure, buddy. I laughed it off. Until I woke up twenty years in the past. Now, thanks to a hacking mishap, I'm a regular girl in reality-with a debt and an attitude-navigating Rimelion, the VR game I once mastered, as Charlie, an elven priestess with more than a few tricks up her sleeve. Seriously though, fighting in high heels? Will I claw my way up the nobility ladder? Dominate the rankings? Outwit the government and their plans to exploit us all? Maybe. But something's off. The game feels too real. My memories don't line up, and everyone has their own version of what's true. Simulation? Reality? The lines are a blur-and I'm stuck in the middle. If I want to stop a dystopian future, I'll need allies, both in-game and out. Oh, and avoid ticking off the AIs hunting me for bending the rules. Survival's a long shot-but I was never one to play fair anyway. *** What to expect: - Light LitRPG story with an emphasis on strategy and world-building - First-person perspective (and occasional close third POVs) - A witty protagonist with a conversational sarcastic, humorous and often self-deprecating voice - A sci-fi world with mysteries sprinkled with fantasy elements - A rich game world system with kingdoms, rules, exploits, and challenges - Supporting characters with personal goals Schedule: * Posting on RoyalRoad and Scribblehub, here after bulk is done

It starts out with the basic setting of a fantasy adventure world but I assure that as things continue, you will be in for quite a surprise : Book 1 (ongoing): Over the course of time, countless heroes have risen to defeat the demon lord. Their names, recorded in history. Tales of their achievements are known across the land. But what about the demon lords who have fallen? What of their side of the stories? One such tale is about a young boy born of Dark. What would he do now that all the powers of the old demon lords of the past belong to him? Would he pursue the path of Dark he was destined to? Or would he reach out to the Light at the cost of his own life? There is no other path. And yet he seeks it, insatiably. Book 2 (in process of story development):Complete
The Devil's Masquerade
Ever heard of the saying 'Don't dance with the devil?' Well, you better pray you don't have to Dance with the She Devil. ------------------------------------------------- They say history repeats itself in an endless cycle until humanity learns the lessons being taught. Just like an endless dance; People meet, waltz, fall in love, marry, and then die a tragic death. For thousands of years, humans lived and thrived with the naive belief that they were the only ones who existed. There were humans that did believe and sought to find out the truth. It is rare that a human is aware of the world that lives among them. Silent and ever watching as eternity stretched out before them. ------------------------------------------ UPDATED NOTE: Hey guys, I am so sorry I just disappeared for a while. Life went chaotic so mental stability was not in the plan for a long time. Now, this is going to be going through some adjustments because it has been so long since a lot of the original events that I planned actually happened in my life plus a lot of new ones. So, bear with me, I hope the ones who liked my book so far still stick with me as I struggle through this. Thank you so much and let us hope 2022 goes better in terms of my writing! I still cannot believe I started this when I was seventeen. I will be twenty-one this year. Yes, this has a new name, I will be tweaking things just a tad but not too much! Lots of love, Rose Mayday![Hacking the Game Didn't Go as Intended [Part One] (Discontinued)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/362534227-256-k253197.jpg)
Hacking the Game Didn't Go as Intended [Part One] (Discontinued)
As a player, imagine having the power to reset your stat points at will - one moment, a warrior cleaving through enemies; the next, a mage wielding devastating spells; then an assassin vanishing into the shadows. No limitations. No weaknesses. Just absolute dominance in any scenario. You would be unstoppable. A god. The cost? To escape a life of poverty, Daisuke attempted to hack the world's first VRMMORPG, Sehreneti Online. But things take an unexpected turn and he's transmigrated into the body of a newborn NPC - stranded in one of the most lawless, cutthroat regions of the game where ambition and cruelty reign. Fasten your seatbelt and follow Daisuke as he carves out his own piece of paradise in a broken world and forges his name into legend. What to expect: » Slow start, leading to an immensely satisfying power-up » Dark & Brutal Beginnings » Unlocks abilities at chapter 33 & the atmosphere becomes a bit more vanilla » Weak To Strong Male MC » Fast Leveling + Rare Magical Items » Stats + Hidden Abilities + LitRPG System » Explosions, Special-Grade Monsters, & Epic Battles
The Marionetteʼs Puppeteer (Volume 1)
I don't know if I died or not, but the moment I regained my consciousness, I was already standing on a field full of grass and surrounded by trees. "W-what is that...?" A screen was floating in front of me. 「 Welcome, new adventurer! 」 "Adventur...rer?" But..... I'm so small! My body is the size of a 9 year old kid! And I don't even know what the hell happened to me. After I read some information on the screen, I was amazed that the world I was in was like a VRMMORPG. Magic exists and so does the level. "Huh?" When I look at my status, I'm not neither a mage that cast magic nor a swordsman that wields a sword, instead.... I'm a puppeteer! Will I survive in this new world despite knowing that I don't have a place to stay or food to eat? Note: This is more likely in Fantasy. Magic goes bruh broom brr. Also, there is some terms in this stories that is hard to understand like skills, ultimate skill, so read the prologue for that one. Anyways give me a vote y'all Started Serializing on October 9, 2022 and finished: December 28, 2022 [Volume 1]Complete

re:COIL | Volume 1
Death was supposed to be the end. For Mitsu Fojitaru, it was only the beginning. Thrown into a world where power is dictated by an unseen force-where the strong thrive and the weak are erased-Mitsu finds himself bound to an identity he never asked for. A Race Hero. A warrior meant to represent his kind. A title carrying weight far heavier than the blade in his hands. But survival in this world is anything but simple. Kingdoms wage silent wars beneath the surface. The balance of power is a fragile illusion. And lurking within the shadows of politics, war, and divine intervention are enemies that cannot be cut down so easily. As Mitsu navigates battlefields drenched in blood and streets filled with deception, one thing becomes painfully clear-this world doesn't favor the good, the just, or the honorable. It favors those who can wield their strength without hesitation. And if Mitsu wants to carve his own path, he'll have to become something more than just a Mink. ...And to realize that, it'll have to cost Him.
