In a world ruled by magic and faith, a long-forgotten king awakens from stasis. Leonhart, once the ruler of a lost empire, returns to a world where gods are born from belief and magic controls everything. Fused with an ancient mechanical system that runs on loyalty, he begins his conquest—not through faith, but through science and technology. As he builds a mechanical army and gains the power to manipulate magic, bloodlines, and faith, Leonhart's kingdom rises—one mechanical soldier at a time. But with every step forward, gods and demons alike take notice. Will this benevolent king reclaim his throne and rule an empire of steel, or will the world destroy him for daring to blend science with the divine?

Han Ling was on his way to exorcise a demon when he was betrayed by a petty schemer. Unable to hold on under the ambush, he died. But when he woke up again, he found himself lying in a strange yet spacious and opulent room. He soon realized he had somehow taken over—or “possessed”—a body in an unfamiliar world. This body looked almost identical to his cultivation-world self—at least eighty percent similar—and even had the same name. Gritting his teeth against the pain, he cast a soul-probing spell to sift through the original owner’s memories. The original Han Ling was a third-generation heir of a wealthy family. However, due to his mother’s gentle nature and her early death from illness, coupled with a stepmother who showed no affection and a father who was always too busy with work to care, he grew up timid and quiet, with few friends. For Han Ling, this made things incredibly convenient. Although his stepmother didn’t care for him, as the family’s only child she still had to bring him along to all kinds of social banquets. And it was at one of these extravagant banquets that Han Ling found himself reliving something like his former glory days. Before fully reclaiming his prestige, he encountered a young heir from another powerful family who had been cursed and was on the verge of death due to his frail body. Han Ling, now a master in this strange world, stepped in and saved him. After that, the heir—Leander—began introducing Han Ling to various jobs: rescuing the spirit of a wronged woman trapped by malicious rituals, solving problems with a cursed plot of land owned by a developer, fixing ominous issues at the opening ceremony of a film crew, and even addressing disturbances with ancestral tablets in other wealthy families. As Han Ling and Leander worked through each case, he began to feel that everything seemed… connected. More and more clues suggested the existence of some shadowy organization that was deliberately sabotaging the world’s feng shui—or perhaps even trying to destroy the world itself. One night, amidst the tension, Leander’s voice was low and steady: > “I’ve always been a gentle man. But when it comes to you… I just can’t bring myself to let go.” Han Ling glared at him, snapping back: > “Don’t think just because you smile so harmlessly, I’m going to believe you…” Yet the very next second, his ears flushed red—because Leander had already taken his hand.

A sharp-tongued office worker transmigrates into a tragic apocalyptic novel as “Clarisse,” a minor noblewoman and future adoptive mother of the male lead—Elias.

The end of the world is still coming. She just refuses to let him die in it.

"I wish to have the highest intelligence possible, an intelligence that would allow me to perceive and thoroughly understand everything I see, even if superficially and only once, to the fullest, including strong points, weak points, and how to overcome them." Due to a mistake made by God, Ken is born with every type of perfect memory, but without anything else - he is weak, sickly, stupid, and unwanted. However, there was a saving grace - he made a friend, Leo. Leo would talk to him about hypothetical situations like what to say in case a genie granted him one wish. When Ken dies and God offers him one wish for his next life as compensation for his previous mistake, Ken simply recites Leo's words and is sent to the cultivation world. There, he slowly learns that he is the only one he can trust. Armed with the special remaining Godly Qi from his reincarnation and with the ability to learn and improve techniques and manuals easily, even creating his own original cultivation path, he cultivates with the goal of standing at the top of the world, even if it takes leaving his moral code behind. Follow Ken in his journey as he lie, blackmail, murder, rob, poison, and manipulate others to achieve his goals! ----- DISCLAIMER: The god in the story is completely random and made up, and is not the particular god of any religion existing today in the real world.

In a world where emotion fuels destruction, the greatest threat isn’t what people do—it’s what they don’t. Drive is the volatile energy born from resisting your own instincts. Repressed rage. Swallowed fear. Suppressed guilt. Most people leak it. Others wield it. And when too much builds up, it doesn’t vanish—it festers. The result? Hollows—mindless entities formed from humanity’s buried urges. They haunt the streets, feeding on tension, grief, and silence. At the center of it all is the Core Authority—a broken institution that recruits emotionally unstable teens to contain what adults caused and can't control. Failing is death. Succeeding means losing yourself anyway. In this system, being strong means being unwell—and surviving means never being whole again.

A corrupt King sits the throne. The last generation of heroes have gone extinct. The lands are as green and as promising as they ever were. The Gods watch with interest and they wait. As next the next uprising comes from the most unlikely of places. A slow burn novel.

A Filipino high student from Leyte, named Basilio Valencia died in a landslide but was reincarnated into another world, which is a partial modern and fantasy world with some modern technology. But thanks to an ability called Tech, he still has his phone, journal, and laptop, as well as some pens and journaling equipment. Thus, he can still listen to his favorite songs and watch his favorite shows, anime, and movies from his previous life through his gadgets. Seeing his creature comforts being reincarnated with him, Basilio thought that he would recontinue his partially changed way of life, but his luck ran out when he almost died in a hostile army known as the Vamzom (Vampire-Zombie) Army. That army, which a Demon Sorcerer cursed and transformed to be blood-thirsty creatures that are more like a hybrid of both vampires and zombies, was killing humans and other races that had blood with combat helicopters, pistols, and swords for their blood. But then, the army regained their humanity partially when they realized what they had done to him and the other humans and races. So, they regretted their actions and worked hard to save him. But, while Basilio was in a coma, their leader, Ruslan Makesa, driven by guilt, took his own life by stabbing himself with his Blood Sword, before placing his powers as a Vamzom in a box; he intended to pass that and his leadership to the Basilio once he survive and wake up from his coma. And so, after Basilio had survived and woken up from his 2-month-long coma, the army apologized to Basilio and asked him to lead them, promising to be good to all races. Basilio was shocked but he forgave them, taking Ruslan's leadership with his own morals and ideals. So, after that, Basilio built a country with the Vamzom race that is civilized and friendly with his cultural traits and morals as a Filipino in his previous life, as well as modeling the new nation, known as the Ruslav Nation, after the Philippine republic. But Basilio discovered that there is a race called Otherworlders, which he was a part of, and took this as an opportunity to make alliances with them. But will Basilio adapt to this new life in a strange world? Warning: The photo used for the book cover is NOT mine! Credits go to the original owner!

During the Warring States Period in China, there emerged a great emperor - Qin Shi Huang, who conquered the six states and unified China. After he gained supreme power, due to his obsession with power and dissatisfaction with the natural laws of birth, aging, illness and death, the aging Qin Shi Huang began to build the huge Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor as his tomb and sent an official named Xu Fu to search for the elixir of immortality in various places. It's a pity that many years have passed and Xu Fu still hasn't brought back any news of the elixir of immortality. It is said that before Xu Fu set out, Emperor Qin Shi Huang had sent someone to draw a secret map of the underground palace of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. This was a key to opening the mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. Emperor Qin Shi Huang hoped that one day Xu Fu would send someone to the tomb with the elixir of immortality to resurrect himself, so that he could continue to govern a vast empire. Legend has it that Xu Fu and his men eventually arrived at a place called Donghuang Island. But for some reason, they vanished from the island. No one has known the whereabouts of Donghuang Island throughout history. It is said that if one can find Donghuang Island, they will be able to find the map to open the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor and obtain the treasures cherished by the First Qin Emperor in the tomb. This has also attracted adventurers throughout history to pursue it relentlessly.
