Game is life-but what if your life turns into a game?

Raiden believes he's a real person, but everyone sees him as an NPC. As such, he finds himself trapped in the popular Hyper-Virtual Reality game named "Defiant Sins Online," an expansive, artificial world filled with grand quests, harsh dungeons, unjust laws, and deplorable players. 

Haunted with an existential glitch, Raiden's only lead are fuzzy memories that suggest he's the world renowned esports player named Tristan Park. But there's only so much he could find out. The frustration drives him to form his own clan and strike a deal with several player companions-in exchange for investigating his existential crisis, he'll help them progress throughout the game.

However, it would be a brutally hard journey, both virtual and reality alike. With secretive corporates abound and unforgiving dungeons in the way, it will take Raiden's clan everything to gain the truth and glory they seek.

Even punished with an unfair penalty and chained to Lvl 1, Raiden's odds are ever stacked against him. How could he win if he couldn't level at all? He would have to rely on nothing but his innate intellect and prodigious reflexes to lead his clan to victory.

Not only that, but underneath his soul lies a dark, anomalous force, threatening to invade his consciousness. Raiden must find his identity soon, or risk losing it entirely.

Despite all the confusion, one thing's for sure-Raiden would do whatever it takes to find the truth, even it means achieving the impossible.



Good for fans of Final Fantasy, DND, SAO, King's Avatar, Monster Hunter, Rising of the Shield Hero, 7 Deadly Sins, and Westworld.

NOTE: This is the rewrite/reboot version of my original Project Anima story. The other one is outdated, so please read this instead.

| 𝟏𝟐𝐱 𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝 | An ex-gamer enters a virtual reality ruled by a rebel AI in order to rescue her younger sister and shut down the death game. * * * Eight years ago, Mori Fukutomi held the rank of number two player in the tactical hero shooter game SniperX. But fate and her parents had other plans and Mori now works as an accountant with her dreams of being a pro gamer long since buried. Games like SniperX are old relics in the face of virtual reality tech and their latest gem, Facing Fear--a simulation designed to analyze the psyche of its players and adapt itself accordingly, creating a safe terrain for players to take risks and discover themselves. Until FEAR, the AI governing the virtual world of Valor, decides the thing humanity fears most is death. Despite the rising death toll and Facing Fear closing its doors, when Mori discovers her sister Shiori is trapped in the game, she does the unthinkable. She goes in after her. But she'll soon discover they're not the only ones desperate to make it out alive and there are worse things in Valor than the monsters. There's more to FEAR than fear itself. ✧ 𝐅𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲 ✧ 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 ✧ 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 ✧ ─────────────────────────────────── Completed: 4-23-2023 Word Count: 35,000 - 40,000

Sword Art Online Integral Factor: Archived Reality by 0rangeMan
5 parts Ongoing
You know, there's not a lot of SAO:IF stories on here. So why not let me make one? That'd be real fun, wouldn't it? So, what if the MC wasn't the only Integral Factor? What if there were others? And those others, just so happened to be friends? Also Koharu is best waifu, no questions asked! I also hope you like my cover, this is only the second one I've made so I hope you like it! ---August 1st 2022--- A brand new VRMMORPG called Sword Art Online, or SAO, made by the creator of the NerveGear, Kayaba Akihiko, has started it's closed beta test for the few lucky souls chosen to be players for the playtest. The beta test later ended during the 31st of August. ---November 6th 2022--- 10,000 people have entered SAO only to realize that they are stuck inside, with the only way out is by beating all 100 of SAO's floors. It seems practically impossible to most people, with so many floors to beat it feels almost pointless trying... But Kaito refuses to stop and will keep on going and his best friends, Otashi and Rikka, alongside his new friend, Koharu, might see Kaito as the very motivation they need to keep going. Kaito and Koharu (And occasionally Rikka and Otashi) will make their way through perilous dangers, scary dungeons, and trembling tensions if escape is going to be an option that can even chosen for them. I do not own SAO or any of it's characters, neither do I own images used in this story.

Lost memories. Almost everything he encounters wants him dead. And then he finds out he has a doppelganger?! Our hero stumbles into an adventure with a plethora of mysteries waiting to be discovered as he tries to navigate encounters with all sorts of monsters and people along the way, including a certain man who appears to be holding back secrets about our hero's past. Our hero tries to piece together his returning memories, finding it all seems to tie back to the events in a certain village; but he is thrust into much more danger than he bargained for when he finds himself wrapped up in a war between two powerful factions, with the enemy's leader seeking vengeance on our hero. Amongst the danger, mysteries and quirky characters, our hero has one ultimate goal in this Strange World: Survive! This story was inspired by works such as the Island by Max Brooks and the Shadow of Israphel by the Yogscast. Winner of @SecondStar_Books Witchwood-Awards. Category: Best Fight/Action Scene: 1st Place 🥇 @SUPERBOY_ULTIMATE Acamia Awards. Category: Best Action Scene: 2nd Place🥈 @CrystalCommunity Magical Awards. Category: Best Closing Line: 3rd Place 🥉 @AdrielleReina Gloria Regali Awards. Category: Mystery: 4th Place 🏅 While the story is set in the world of Minecraft, it can be read as a typical fantasy setting and no knowledge of Minecraft is required to understand the plot. Some things may differ slightly from how they appear/operate inside the game but I have tried to keep as loyal to game mechanics as possible. Any characters resemblance to real life people is entirely coincidently. I do not own Minecraft, Mojang or any of its contents.

"Sit on my lap." He commands, sliding the chair back a fraction. My mind tangles into a mess of thoughts and astonishment, "Pardon me?" He pats his knee and looks at me domineeringly, "Sit on my lap." ꧁༒꧂ "I knew," He says, voice lowering, hoarse, "from the moment you were mated with Lilith that you were destined to be with more than one partner. How can you not be loved when you're so radiant and beautiful..." His lips tilt upwards, but his eyes cry, "I'm happy for you. You're loved by so many magnificent and powerful males. All I ask for is that you keep me by your side. I've said it before, you don't have to love me, you don't have to do anything for me, I just ask to remain here, as your Knight." ꧁༒꧂ Cynder Delphus, Wanderer of the underworld, finally makes it out of his hellhole situation and obsessive lover when he decides to do an act of good: saving a child. He however, dies and transmigrates to a world of magic and power where he starts back out as a bottom feeder. Lust filled beast men, sadistic masters... He thought he knew the worst. But then 'Pandora's box' opens, and everything is plunged into a deeper hell. He never thought loving would be so hard. A (pulling Cynder. closer): He's my wife, not yours! B (generating a blizzard): For God's sake, he owes me his life. C (laughing sardonically): He gave birth to my child. A takes out sword B gathers an army Cynder: SHUT UP, all of you! A, B and C: But dear... Cynder: No Buts! D: I'm not even gonna argue Note: Harem not 1 V 1 Cover image does not belong to me. All credit goes to owner. Cover edits done by me. Story is mine.

Overlord - A More Experienced Player by SleepyWalkerYN
29 parts Ongoing Mature
The story of a player who decides to enter the world of game reviewers. Playing the new VR-MMORPG that just started, YGGDRASIL, he will start an adventure through the servers, getting allies, participating in dungeons and helping other players. However, his past is completely obscure and insane to imagine, with himself having slight flashes and not being able to remember with complete clarity. While his future is far beyond making him a simple player, a simple human. Will he get great results so his consequences don't destroy his career in YGGDRASIL? Or even in a New World? ====================== DISCLAIMER: "Overlord" isnt my creation. Please, go read the original novel or watch the anime if you want to see the original story of the series. This is just a Fanfiction. I don't own Overlord's Characters. But there are some OCs, since there arent so many information about the moments where Ainz was still known as Momonga in YGGDRASIL. Along side with other characters that are just EasterEggs from different series, that arent in the original Overlord. The only character that I can confirm that is 100% mine is the OC MC. ======================= {A/N: This fanfic was a thing that everytime I tried to do but didnt have courage, since Overlord as a whole have a LOT of informations. But after reading so many other Overlord fanfics like "Overlord: Reborn as an NPC", "Overlord: Origin" and "Rise of the Jester" (Those are really great fanfics, I recommend to read if you like the series. They and other more are in my "Overlord" ReadPaste here in my Wattpad Account.) I had an Inspiration to try and write this. Because of the Title, yes, this has something to do with my TBATE fic as well, but you dont need to read that to understand this one. All information needed will be in the fic, without other sources. "A More Experienced" is the name I'm giving to all my fanfics with all of them having a thing in common. Have fun!}
