The Art Of Getting Rich Again
She had it all-money, power, luxury. A brilliant businesswoman at the peak of success, she lived in a world where intelligence and cunning ruled. But in the blink of an eye, everything was taken from her. Struck by lightning and thrown into an unfamiliar medieval fantasy world, she wakes up with nothing. No wealth, no connections, no mana-not even a noble title. Just a sharp mind, a relentless drive, and a burning desire to reclaim the status she once had. In this new world where power is determined by bloodline, magic, and strength, she must outwit corrupt nobles, manipulate guilds, negotiate with criminals, and navigate a world filled with hidden dangers. Along the way, she gathers a small but loyal group of allies-a cold-hearted fallen noble, a thick-headed warrior, a skeptical scholar, and a seductive spy. With no magic of her own, she must use business, strategy, and deception to rise above the system. The world is against her, but she doesn't care. Because in the end, wealth isn't about magic or bloodline. It's about who plays the game better. And she intends to win.
Burnout Reincarnation
Archmund Granavale was nine years old when he remembered his first life as a (former) "gifted kid". That world told him for years that he would grow up to do great things and change the world. Then he grew up, and none of that happened. In this new world, Omnio, he can't relive that. At first, he wants to use all of the useless knowledge and trivia - science fun facts, recipes, and self-help books - that a "gifted" kid absorbs to either revolutionize this pre-industrial fantasy world or achieve total freedom instead of being bound by the rules of the nobility. But that all changes once a Dungeon Storm opens a passage to the underworld in his home county, sparking an empire-wide gold rush for its magical gems. If he wants either a quiet life or a career at the forefront of industrialization, he has no choice but to navigate the complex social landscape of the military, the nobility, and the masters of magic. He'll take every advantage he can get - magic gems, independent wealth, connections and the status to make them - and the knowledge of a burned-out gifted kid. This time, he will change the world - or at very least the path of his life. A focus on discovering a world from the perspective of someone thrust into it -- scientifically, politically, magically. Updates 8-9 PM EST, 1500+ words, Monday-Friday.
Sweet Chance - English
After succumbing to a brain tumor, I awaken to a world where I am now a duke's daughter. Perhaps my obsession with Isekai novels during my hospital stay has altered my reality, but why am I now thrust into the pages of an R19 romance novel titled "The Beast King Beloved"? The line between dream and reality blurs as I navigate this unfamiliar life. What if this world is indeed real? What if I've become a character, much like Miaka and Julie from "Fushigi Yûgi"? I refuse to succumb to death once more, regardless of whether this reality is genuine or fabricated. I will seize this second chance to revel in luxury, savor exquisite meals, and don elegant dresses worthy of the Victorian era. I'm determined to follow my own path, embracing trends without being swept away by the narrative currents, as I strive for happiness. Yet, amidst my aspirations, I find myself facing an infuriatingly persistent character who complicates my journey.
The Nest Witch
I died for some ridiculous reason and woke up in another world. In a universe where women who are not nobles are considered worthless objects, I was a peasant woman. In a universe where all witches had already been burned, I was a witch. The most beautiful curse I could find to express myself turned into praise. ✏️ This is not a literary work. It was written just for fun. 🙈 ✏️ The descriptions are weak. 🙉 I'll go back and correct the writing errors once I hit the 100th chapter. ✏️ There are parts where light novels are mocked and parodied. 🙊 ✏️ A casual language has been used. 🦋 ✏️ Oh my God, this story contains 16+ violence and includes scenes of inappropriate behavior. 🐷 ✏️ I hate advertisements. ❗️🚫🚫🚫 ✏️ The main character claims to be an atheist, but she is not; she's just a teenager on a quest for identity, swinging from one place to another. (Thank you, Captain Obvious!) 🕌⛪️🏛⛩🕍 ✏️ The genre is isekai and RPG. 🎡 (In other words, the universe was written with a game logic. If you want to read more works like this, I recommend searching for the tags 'RPG,' 'game elements,' or 'system administration' on a site called novelupdates.) ✅ I'm a fool too. The fool wishes everyone a good show. @all rights reserved @swear it's reserved lol @seriously reserved, watch out lmao

Become The Villainous Heroine
Living in a world that could be destroyed by the main characters on a whim sounds crazy right? Even more crazy when you have to gain the affection of the capture targets to sustain your life line! No need to fear, Alyssa here has read so many books and played so many games on Isekai and whatnot. All she has to do is follow all the clichés and get all the male leads on her side right? Gaining the affection of people was easy when one was reborn. "Get away from me" "Are you trying to seduce me? Disgusting" Why is her survival determined by others?! Why can't she just live an opulent life with her parents in the Behart Duchy?! And why are there always constant threats???!
The Cursed Witch
Reincarnating, dying, repeat. My life revolves around those three. This has been going on for so long that my memory of my first life already became hazy. And right now, I was reincarnated in a novel I read from my previous life. A novel where the second male lead was being taken advantage of by the heroine but was just discarded in the end. And I would prevent that from happening to him #1- Fantasy-romance (08/27/23) #11- Fantasy (10/23/23) #35- Fantasy (08/02/23) #32- Aristocracy (08/13/23) #24- Otherworld (08/17/23) #39- Otherworld (08/13/23) ⚠️ UNDER CONSTRUCTION ⚠️Complete
The Atonement of a Writer
Lilianne Marineau, aka Lili, a struggling writer like you and me, wakes up to find herself in the body of Arielle Dumont, the female protagonist in her own, half-written novel. What would happen next? She sure as hell doesn't know. At first, all Lili wants to do is survive, and is overcome with the feeling that she had been bound by chains of her own making. Soon enough, though, she realizes she had been atoning for the wrong thing--and maybe, just maybe it was not her fault. A story of a writer who has to live as a character in a world she hasn't quite fully developed yet. A terrible writer with terrible concepts of magic in a fantasy world--and yes, there are glitches. TW: anxiety/depression/existential crisis esp in the earlier chapters, but quite mild, nothing we all haven't experienced before (I think anyone would reasonably panic in MC's situation). Still overall fairly lightheartedComplete
The Inured Villainess
Inure: (v.) To accustom to accept something undesirable, evil, or painful. An other worldly girl is reincarnated as Queen Estella de Royalis, the villainess of a novel that is killed by her own husband. Having no other choice, she strives to save herself from that fate. However, the novel she read is not the reality she believed. ______ I tried on another, a red one this time. I twirl in its large skirt. "This one matches your eyes," I say as I spin. "This one too." I stop, putting my hands on my hips. "Are you going to order all of them?" "If I want to, yes, I will." He doesn't budge. I sigh, sitting next to him. "You know that you don't have to do this. I can go buy my own dresses." "I know, but I want to see you wear dresses that I chose. Besides, is it so wrong to want to spend time with you?" ______ Note: This is entirely my work. I want to see if I'm able to write something without a plot set up for me. I hope you like it!Complete
