--- WSA 2025 ENTRY --- Lucian Bowcott only wanted a quiet life. He met up with old friends, made a wish, and died after one drink. Now, he awakens inside a coffin—summoned by the Half-Dead Queen of Atraeum and surrounded by restless souls. Armed with the Death Grimoire, Lucian must embalm corpses, repair brittle bones, and help the dead find peace… before something ancient finds him. As his powers grow, so do the whispers in the dark. If he wants to survive, Lucian must unravel the Queen’s grief, discover why a mortician hasn’t been summoned in over a century, and confront the entities haunting his every step. + A/N: It doesn't deal with dungeons, Lucian's system is a magical book, and he slowly unlocks powers to help him with his next assignment. He travels to different places around Atraeum, and in the future, another kingdom. This is a character-driven gothic isekai about an introvert learning that sometimes, peace is more than just embalming a body and preparing it for a funeral. He's more of an undead therapist now

Chancellor to an Undead University When a reality-bending "Awakening" rips through Atheria University, engulfing the campus in a tide of flesh-hungry "Blighted" and unleashing bizarre, terrifyingly mutated creatures, ordinary student Axel finds himself in an extraordinary predicament. It's not just the zombie apocalypse he has to worry about – a mysterious, game-like Sovereign System has just activated in his mind, inexplicably designating him "Acting Chancellor" of the now decidedly Undead University. Armed with a sharp, sarcastic wit, a fire extinguisher that’s seen better days, and a System that offers cryptic advice and a surprising talent for urban planning amidst chaos, Axel must navigate the blood-soaked halls and shadowy underbelly of his alma mater. His first mission: survive. His second: figure out what being a "Chancellor" in hell actually means. From securing a tiny, fortified operations room in a campus security sub-station to braving monster-infested maintenance tunnels in search of vital resources, Axel's new "job" is a crash course in extreme crisis management. Every shadow could hide a new horror, from the relentless Blighted to agile, Awakened monstrosities. But he’s not entirely alone. The discovery of a hand-drawn map and its resourceful, wary creator, Mia, offers the first spark of hope – a sign that other survivors might be out there. As Axel begins to utilize his unique Chancellor-level System abilities – like "Domain Awareness" and the power to slowly reclaim and rebuild parts of the sprawling 5000-acre campus – the dream of creating a true sanctuary, a beacon of order in a world gone mad, begins to take root. "Chancellor to an Undead University" follows Axel's journey from bewildered student to unlikely leader. Facing down grotesque horrors, forging uneasy alliances, and using his intellect (and a healthy dose of gallows humor) to outsmart both the undead and the unpredictable nature of his new powers, he aims to transform Atheria from a charnel house into a thriving haven. As word of his burgeoning settlement spreads, attracting a diverse cast of skilled (and often predominantly female) survivors seeking refuge and respect, Axel will learn that building a kingdom is even harder than slaying monsters – especially when navigating the complexities of leadership, budding romances, and the ever-present threat of a world determined to tear it all down. Get ready for a thrilling mix of system-driven progression, strategic kingdom-building, intense action, unexpected humor, and a touch of drama, all set against the unique backdrop of a university fighting for its very soul.

Masaru Ryunosuke is an outcast—a scholarship student in a school of elites, struggling to keep his head down in a world that looks down on him. But when a chance encounter with a vampire attack leaves him at death’s door, he wakes up to a new reality—he's no longer human. Now a ghoul, the lowest rank of undead, Masaru finds himself thrown into a world of ancient bloodlines, deadly supernatural creatures, and secret organizations hunting beings like him. His only guide? Akane Mikazuki, the cold and ruthless noble vampire who saved him, but only for her own mysterious reasons. Armed with the Cape of Dracula, an artifact of legendary power, and an unnatural potential that defies vampire logic, Masaru refuses to accept his fate as a weakling. If the world wants to treat him like a mere undead—then he’ll rise above them all and prove them wrong. As battles erupt between vampires, werewolves, assassins, and monstrous beings, Masaru must claw his way up the supernatural hierarchy before he’s devoured by forces beyond his comprehension. Because in this world, the weak exist only to be devoured. But what happens… when an undead refuses to stay at the bottom?

After suddenly dying from work exhaustion in the modern world, a young man named Clayton wakes up in someone else’s body in a foreign world styled like medieval Europe. Without knowing how or why he ended up there, Clayton slowly realizes he now inhabits the body of a teenager who has just survived a deadly illness—and lost his beloved father. But his new awakening isn’t met with hope; instead, it brings pressure and intrigue. The people around him—from city officials to seemingly kind neighbors—all share one goal: to seize the valuable house his father left behind. One by one, their masks of kindness slip away, revealing the harsh reality of this new world. With a weak body, a nearly dead farm, and a loyal, skinny dog, Clayton must fight to survive. He not only has to delve into the memories of his body’s former owner but also navigate a world filled with manipulation, magical creatures, and social injustice. This world isn’t just an escape from work stress—it’s a battlefield for his soul and pride.

For some Auren Vailar was a myth, or maybe even a legend. But he once existed as The Necromancy King, who almost perfected the art of undead before he got a tragic death instead. 100 years later, he was reawakened. Not as The Necromancy King he used to be, but inside an unknown young undead body with low magic ability. Now, with a new chance to live, Ren decides he should regain his power, find out the cause of the tragedy 100 years before, and why his most trusted disciple betrayed him. But in this current world, necromancy is forbidden. Finding the truth won’t be easy, especially when The Holy Order is involved, as it leads him to other unexpected obstacles. Will Ren survive death this time, or will his end remain the same in this new life?

In the Kunlun Snow Palace, a sage once said, those who pass away wander, while the living cannot let go. Once the soul departs, it will wither like the autumn grass. Those who are reborn from the dead, existing apart from the mortal realm, shall be shunned by all celestial sects and smitten as undead demons. On this day, a youth awakens from within a coffin, his blood dry and his bones chilled, to find himself a century old upon opening his eyes. A single tear from a sage awaited, a constant companion, may unravel the dreams of the past. Seeking not immortality but a mundane death, not to lament with the ages over lost love and resentment, but only wishing to grow old with tenderness in this lifetime, beneath the white clouds that hold no envy for the heavenly realms.

When Electrolux became the old man trapped inside a ring. When Gu Feng transmigrated to the Douluo Continent, becoming the grandson of the Bone Douluo from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and awakening the Bone Dragon Martial Soul.
