Fight moderately and play well, this is the ideal life in another world!... more>>

The bastard sword is a sword of moderate length. It’s slightly longer than a short sword, making precise handling a bit challenging. Compared to a long sword its reach falls somewhat short, making winning in direct clashes difficult. Capable of everything, yet not particularly adept at anything. Embracing such a moderate bastard sword, I, Mongrel, a guild man and middle-aged fellow, had a dream.

A dream of living leisurely in peace.

With my abilities, I could use gifts to defeat strong magical creatures if I wanted, and with my modern knowledge, I could potentially transform this different world. However, I choose not to.

Working casually at the guild, immersing myself in cooking and fishing… and if I can occasionally be of help to others, that’s more than enough.

This is the tale of a moderately laid-back guy, an adventure that doesn’t seek too many adventures. <<less

After transmigrating into a world of Beast Tamers, Fang Ran found himself scammed and tricked into contracting a crippled angel.... more>>

But because of this, he awakened a god-tier talent — Advance Credit — allowing him to enjoy the results first and fill in the process later!

While everyone else was grinding day and night to learn new skills, Fang Ran’s angel had already mastered them all.

While everyone else was racking their brains trying to evolve their beasts, Fang Ran’s angel had already ascended into a divine being.

Classmate: “He’s way too hardworking. He keeps training even after mastering all the skills!”

Campus Belle: “When it comes to hard work, I can’t compare to Fang Ran. Even my beast can’t compare to his!”

Years later, someone asked Fang Ran the secret to his success.

He simply smiled and said, “Just reviewing the basics, over and over.” <<less

Welcome to the world of Beast Taming <<less

For ten years, I supported villains with the intention of reforming them. But now, I find myself as the ultimate mastermind behind the kingdom’s darkness…

In an effort to survive, I sought to become a "beloved yet incompetent lord," generously giving to the people.... more>>

"My lord, please remain seated. As your steward, I will handle this matter."

"My sole liege is none other than you, my lord!"

Events beyond my control began to unfold. <<less

Wang Chen unexpectedly traveled to the world of cultivation.... more>>

He became a young Qi Training cultivator from the outer sect of the Yunyang Sect in East Cangzhou.

Within the sect, social ranks were rigid, and intrigue was rampant;

Outside the mountain gate, monsters roamed freely, and Evil Spirits lurked everywhere!

Weak in strength, Wang Chen resolved to lay low until the end of time.

However, as he continued to keep a low profile…

He discovered that he had somehow become a big shot! <<less

Zhu Qingchen, who tragically passed away at 20 and was posthumously named "Prince’s Tutor," was chosen by the system as a "good teacher" to complete various tasks—each in a different dog-blooded novel.... more>>

Zhu Qingchen: Is the "Prince’s Tutor" title just for show?

System: No way! Absolutely not!

In the ancient world, the protagonist was a brilliant scholar who studied hard for ten years, only to be taken advantage of by a s*umbag the night before his imperial exam. The next day, sick with a fever, he collapsed before the emperor and was exiled to the frontier for a decade. Afterward, the s*umbag tried to rope him into rebellion, eventually making himself emperor and trapping the scholar in the palace as his queen.

Zhu Qingchen: Wait, what? Waking up with a “whoosh”, Zhu sharpened his knife all night at the door, ready to protect his top scholar.

[No one messes with my star student!]

In the modern world, the protagonist ranked last in his class for three years but turned it around to place first right before the college entrance exam. However, the s*umbag ripped up his admission ticket the night before, causing him to miss the exam. He finally entered the New Western School, where he was humiliated by the s*umbag’s arrogant boss during a school celebration.

Zhu Qingchen: What the hell? Zhu “swooshed” on his little electric donkey, escorting the protagonist to the exam hall.

I testify! This is my student; let him go in to take the exam first, and then come out to make up his identity certificate!

[He doesn’t need an admission ticket; he can take the exam first and worry about paperwork later!]

In the ABO world, the protagonist was a beta with average abilities, but his grades were good enough for the best university in the empire. The s*umbag concealed his scores, locked him in a room, and prevented him from attending university, turning him into a canary and forcing him to bear three children. He even made him wear women’s clothing to an imperial banquet, where the protagonist’s identity was exposed, humiliating him in front of the imperial marshal.

Zhu Qingchen: Excuse me, what?! He broke into the room with a “swoosh”, rescuing the protagonist from the nightmare.

To make matters even better, the imperial leaders intervened and took action. The imposing imperial marshal announced in front of the cameras, “Anyone who dares to steal talent from the empire is an enemy of the world.”

Zhu Qingchen, who was on standby, showed a brilliant smile with eight big white teeth and gave a thumbs-up. “Well said!” <<less

Are handsome men the South’s specialty? Obsession seems to be a basic requirement!... more>>

I’ve possessed Callia Rabius, the villainess from the romance fantasy novel .

Although I’m already isolated from high society, it’s even better since I don’t need to socialize!

I was planning to retreat to the countryside in the South and fully enjoy the life of a wealthy recluse, but….

The naval admiral’s secret, hidden behind a facade of germaphobia: a curse that drains the life force of those he touches.

I accidentally revealed that I know about its existence!

“Please spare me! I’ll ensure no one, man or woman, comes near you!”

To survive, I proposed a contract relationship to the admiral.

With my reputation already in tatters, I offered to become the embodiment of jealousy and keep people at bay.

“How dare you touch my man?”

But as I’m doing it, it seems to suit me surprisingly well?

***

I was living so diligently like that, but something felt off.

“When will I go back, you ask? Not until you show your ugly true colors again.”

The sub-male lead duke from the original story, who once threw the engagement cancellation letter in my face, keeps coming to pick fights.

“The men standing beside you may change, but I will always be behind you, my lady.”

The once cold-hearted butler now declares his lifelong service.

“I’ve never wished more for my hands not to be hands that kill people.”

The admiral, my contract lover, carelessly makes such confessions.

“Calia, pain is temporary, but love is eternal. Why are you running away?”

The mad monarch of the pirates kidnaps me, locks me up, and spouts nonsense.

I just wanted to secure an easy life, but why does it seem like I’m getting further and further from a peaceful existence? <<less

Synopsis:... more>>

After binding to a broken system, Yu Liuxue must complete the dying wishes of female supporting characters—otherwise, she’ll die.

Request 1: "I want that vixen who stole my fiancé to pay the price!"

Request 2: "I want to divorce my unromantic wife! I can’t stand her for even one more second—just seeing her makes me sick..."

Request 3: "I want that woman to fall from her pedestal and suffer a fate worse than death..."

“A refund,” the male lead said to the man running the stall.

Poor theater actor Lee Soo-hyun.... more>>

He fainted after being hit by a falling light, and when he opened his eyes, he possessed a character in “The Blue Knight of the Holy Sword”, a novel that was discontinued due to unpopularity.

What's more, he transmigrated into the body of Arendt von Eckhart, who betrayed the Knights Templar and was destined to be executed soon.

The only thing left for the character who has completed his or her role on stage is to exit. In other words, there is only death... Character interpretation can vary depending on the actor playing it.

“Please take care of me, you traitorous bastard.”

In order to survive, he must create a role other than that of Arendt, the 'traitor', even if it means twisting the story.

Now, the life-threatening method acting begins! <<less

"I only came to check if you were dead or alive, so don't be a nuisance. There won't be a second chance for forgiveness."

On top of that, the Emperor of the enemy nation, who had promised to fulfill my Last Will before I died, was breaking my Last Will in real time.

Not only was it unfair that I was reborn, but I was also being treated like a good-for-nothing again. How could this be?

Elonia vowed.

'This time, I'll definitely kill you.'

Just you wait, Emperor. As soon as I'm old enough to wield a sword, your neck will be the first thing I take!

Hei Tuo found himself transported into the world of Naruto.... more>>

Unexpectedly, his arrival triggered a strange anomaly in the world!

On the brink of death, Hei Tuo was saved by none other than the legendary Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage, known for her striking beauty and formidable strength.

After being brought to her home, Hei Tuo was in for another surprise.

There was another expert living here—Shizune, Tsunade’s loyal assistant, who was both youthful and adorable.

Her attire was even more revealing than Tsunade’s.

Her long, slender legs seemed to stretch on forever, leaving Hei Tuo utterly captivated.

…

To make things even more unexpected, Hei Tuo awakened the Ethereal Fusion System.

Ding! The Ethereal Fusion System has been activated!

System Trait: Absorb chakra of different attributes to maintain the balance of the Ethereal Space!

Fusion in progress…

Fusion with Zero-Tails genes complete!

Energy Devourer: Hei Tuo can now absorb chakra from others through his "barrel."

With the power of the Ethereal Fusion System, Hei Tuo gradually began to take control of the Five Great Nations, climbing his way to the pinnacle of life.

Tsunade, the blonde, black-stockinged, busty Hokage: "Hei Tuo, for the stability of the village… you’ll need to hold on a little longer!"

The alluring and slightly plump Mizukage, Mei Terumi: "Master, it’s already been three hours… aren’t you done yet? If this goes on, my water will be completely drained!" <<less

Wizards.... more>>

They are transcendents who use magic to fight, protect, and save. However, in the world of wizards, talent speaks for itself. The long history of magic has picked up only talented clans, and now the only wizards are aristocrats. That is common sense here in Manalil.

At the Beralt Magic Academy, one of Manalil’s leading educational institutions, the eggs of excellent wizards are gathering again this year.

Yes, except for one person.

A simple boy who gets a lot of looks. A country bumpkin who has nothing to do with the glittering world. There was the only commoner at the academy.

“I want to be a mage.”

The story of a peasant who wants to be a mage and fulfil his dream is about to begin. <<less

Lian Mu, a modern-day cultivator, failed her tribulation and suffered a backlash. When she woke up, she had been reborn.... more>>

By some unfortunate coincidence, she was reborn into the body of a little girl with blocked spiritual roots and not a single coin to her name. The girl had been eliminated from the Gui Xian Sect and was now making a living by sweeping the sect’s stairways.

Lian Mu, who had already perfected her Dao in her previous life: Starting over from scratch? What’s so hard about that?

However, it wasn’t until she re-entered the Gui Xian Sect for the second time that she realized—starting over in this world wasn’t just a matter of experience and skill. What she lacked most was money.

As a sword cultivator, she was so poor that she couldn’t even afford a sword. Worse yet, after reconstructing her body with three spiritual roots, her dantian was damaged, and her body was in terrible condition. She needed specialized alchemists and artifact forgers to help her recover—both of which required a massive amount of money.

In order to continue cultivating while spending as little as possible, she had no choice but to switch professions in secret. She simply taught herself alchemy and artifact forging, becoming entirely self-sufficient.

At first, everyone had this impression of Lian Mu—

Elders: “This sword cultivator disciple is neglecting her proper path and lazing around all day. Truly infuriating.”

Sword cultivator senior brothers: “This three-spiritual-root cultivator is absolutely useless. What can she even do? She’s not even worth taking in as a body cultivator!”

Alchemists: “Can someone tell me why she’s slacking off yet keeps running to our Yinxiang Peak?”

Artifact forgers: “So it’s not just our peak suffering—now I feel better.”

But later—during the Grand Sect Tournament, when high-level demonic beasts went on a rampage, catching the various sects off guard and throwing everyone into chaos—

A single sword cultivator from Gui Xian Sect flew out on a broom with a “whoosh,” talismans in her left hand, a sword in her right, and stomped several demonic beasts to death with just a few kicks.

Everyone: “???”

During another sect tournament, Lian Mu once again found herself alone, isolated with no allies.

The others: She’s finally going to be eliminated this time, right?

Then, they watched in stunned silence as she pulled out a top-grade alchemy furnace and a forging platform, casually refined high-tier pills, and effortlessly repaired top-level spiritual weapons.

The four great sects were shaken: What exactly is this person’s profession!?

When Lian Mu walked out, she spread her hands helplessly and said, “Sorry, I was too poor, so I had to learn a little bit of everything. Even though I can refine pills and forge artifacts, I am still a firm sword cultivator.”

Everyone: “……”

It turned out that some people’s three spiritual roots weren’t just ordinary three spiritual roots but a perfect fusion of three heavenly spiritual roots. <<less

Reborn into the world of cultivation, I obtained a simulator.... more>>

Guiding human civilization, establishing the order of cultivation... From now on, I am the god of this small world!

If I don't know how to refine pills, the Dan Shi of the small world will impart their experience.

Refining artifacts and making talismans, bottleneck barriers, one-on-one professional guidance, targeting exactly what I don't know, my master no longer needs to worry about my cultivation.

"Except for being a bit pushy with microtransactions, it's really flawless."

The poor Su Xun, touching his depleted wallet, silently shed tears of bitterness, "Why, even after I transmigrated, can't I escape the fate of being a poor wretch?!"

***

In a world where the path to immortality is paved with talent, powerful sects, and countless aspiring cultivators, Su Xun is decidedly not one of the chosen few. Burdened with a mediocre dual-spiritual root, he's just trying to survive in the shadow of his prodigy older sister, a rising star in the prestigious Taiyi Sect.

But when a mysterious inner world awakens within his consciousness, a world he can shape and manipulate, Su Xun discovers he might be more than just a disappointment.

As he cultivates this burgeoning world, raising civilizations and shepherding their progress, he uncovers a unique path to power – one that involves a lot of hard work, a little bit of cunning, and a whole lot of spirit stones!

Get ready for a journey unlike any other, where a seemingly ordinary man grapples with extraordinary power, all while trying to avoid being scammed, exploited, or worse – exploded! <<less
