It was the first time she had experienced such a situation, and since he was usually so playful, she thought he was joking.

“If that’s the case, make me believe you like me.”

“What should I do?”

While pondering how to confirm someone’s feelings, Rivera thought of something hot and intense.

Something more stimulating than innocent love.

True to her quirky nature, she couldn’t even take this situation seriously.

Rivera thought of the time when men and women would climb on top of each other’s bodies, but she judged that it was too much to demand at the stage of just confirming love.

“Who said it was too much?”

That was purely a misjudgment.

“Is this how you want me to prove it?”

Something soft covered her lips.

“What… Mmph!”

Goosebumps spread across her body as her strength drained away.

Seeing Rivera, who had become defenseless in an instant, he continued speaking with his thumb between her lips.

“This is what I wanted too.” <<less

A non-traditional cultivation novel featuring a bold female protagonist. Proceed with caution if this isn’t your cup of tea!... more>>

[Mind Reading + System + Transmigration into a Book + Cultivation + Group Pampering]

Xiao Xiao unexpectedly dies and transmigrates into a cannon fodder substitute in a Mary Sue-style cultivation novel where the Female Protagonist’s admirers eventually gouge out her Golden Core to save the Female Protagonist.

Luckily, she has a system. Unluckily, it’s not a Comeback System but a useless Retrieval System.

What else could she do? She can only keep her head down, avoid forming her Golden Core, and dodge the tragic fate of being gutted.

[“Master is so amazing, yet he was tragically taken over by someone just to save his disciple. And that disciple, upon learning the truth, not only refused to seek revenge but even tangled up with the perpetrator. How ungrateful!”]

Master: ?!

[“First Senior Brother is a peerless talent and should have become a great Sword Immortal. But to save the one he loves, his Life-Bound Sword broke, and his dantian was destroyed. He ended up as a useless cripple.”]

First Senior Brother: ?!!

[“Second Senior Brother had it even worse. He wasn’t skilled in combat and only loved refining pills. Because of his low combat ability, he became a pawn in the Male and Female Protagonists’ schemes. He was captured to threaten Third Junior Sister, who refused to bow her head and was brutally dismembered.”]

Second Senior Brother: ?!!!

[“Sigh, and you thought she was your bestie? Turns out she’s been hooking up with your fiancé behind your back. They’re even planning to team up to get rid of you!”]

Cannon Fodder 1: F***!

[“And the other cannon fodders, who should have had brighter futures, ended up…”]

Various Cannon Fodders: !!!

Xiao Xiao initially just wanted to use the system to quietly watch the drama unfold. Who would’ve thought the cannon fodders, originally supposed to fawn over the Female Protagonist, would start flocking around her? <<less

When natural disasters ran rampant, with extreme cold and storms spreading endlessly…... more>>

When the world mutated, zombies surged like tides, and eerie horrors emerged…

When the apocalypse descended, massive Devouring Abysses hundreds of kilometers in diameter began appearing around the globe...

When people looked up at the atmospheric cloud layers and saw the slowly emerging corpse of a colossal evil god…

From that day, people began to notice that daylight was arriving later and later, until the sun no longer rose, plunging the world into an unending polar night.

For survival, on that day, the Apocalypse Radio made its final broadcast to the world:

"Everyone, flee eastward—escape to dawn!"

…

Lin Xian awakened the [Mechanical Heart] ability. He could devour machinery to gain various mysterious skills, scan machines to obtain blueprints for manufacturing, and even use his thoughts to achieve unified control of different machines.

Thus, he found a 200-ton heavy gas-powered locomotive, towing specially modified storage, planting, production, medical, and living carriages, and embarked on a 320,000-kilometer journey along the planetary orbital rail—charging eastward toward the dawn! <<less

Steven is a total newbie who just got isekai’d into the world of Terra.... more>>

But before all this, he spent years surviving in the blocky world of Minecraft, living the slow and cautious life of a seasoned Minecrafter.

Thanks to that history, he almost got forcefully ejected by Terra’s world will the moment he arrived—

“Don’t just toss me back to the world where even the sun is a square!”

In order to survive in this world—where at least the girls have pointy faces instead of square ones—Steven has no choice but to dive into one chaotic event after another, all to raise something called his "World Acknowledgement Point" and earn his stay.

This includes, but is not limited to:

Fighting infected; Fighting the Church of the Deep; Fighting eldritch horrors from the sea; And, of course…

Fending off suspiciously grateful girls with very ungrateful intentions.

Steven: “Well, I’m already here, right? May as well go all in…” <<less

He was precocious from birth. By the age of seven or eight, he already had some clear personal rules. However, during his five years at the Twin Immortals Sect, he hardly ever did anything willingly. So, after gaining his freedom, he strived to make sure everything he did aligned with his wishes and made him feel at peace. This wasn't an easy task, but he enjoyed it immensely. ... more>>

It's true that he pursued immortality. But the immortality he sought, or rather, yearned for, was nothing like the ruthless and cruel immortality of the Twin Immortals, Zi Lei and Chi Yin. Nor was it the petty and sordid kind sought by the Sun Light Sect or the Thousand Spirit Gate.

Many times, he would do things that seemed inexplicable to others: unrelated to morality, unrelated to profit, unrelated to right or wrong, good or evil. There was only one sufficient reason behind all this: immortality encompasses all meaningful pursuits.

I have a mirror, reflecting the mountains and rivers of the universe;
I have a sword, cutting through the realms of human hearts and ghosts;
I have a city, seated among the clouds of the Nine Heavens;
I have a heart, smiling through the trials on the path to immortality.

Why do people seek immortality? Because immortality embraces all desires and signifies infinite possibilities. <<less

"Sara Rostem! As of today, you are expelled from the party!"... more>>

There was no grandiose event, and I signed the dismissal notice that was presented to me.

The reason for my dismissal was a love affair with Al, the leader of the party.

It was a shame because it was a pretty good workplace, but I was a grown adult (around 30).

I quietly received my retirement money and said goodbye to the friends who had taken care of me for the past three years.

I kept the fact that I was a saint from another world a secret until the very end.

"Well, I guess it can't be helped now that I'm fired. I'll go eat some delicious fish in the east."

As I continued on my carefree journey, I rescued a traveler who was being attacked by a monster.

One of them was Roy, who had beastman blood.

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.

Shu Mo crossed over into Extreme Cold Apocalypse and even got bound to a simulation management system.... more>>

At the start, the system let her choose a type of shop to manage.

Shu Mo, freezing like a dog: …Do I even need to think about this?

She shivered as she typed in “hot spring street.”

The entire world was swept into a bizarre survival game.

Temperatures plummeted, monsters invaded from all sides, resources were scarce, and all warm things vanished from the world, plunging it into an endless winter.

In the tenth year after the game began, the despairing players unexpectedly discovered…

At the foot of a snowy mountain, there was actually a hot spring inn surrounded by rising steam.

—Amid the vast snowy mist, a warm orange light glowed. Steam lingered in the air, the smell of sulfur filled their noses, and as they approached, calm and peaceful background music played in their ears.

The players, realizing what they had found, immediately went wild.

Shu Mo’s hot spring inn quickly became explosively popular, and its business scope gradually expanded.

From various hot springs, foot baths, and saunas,

to steaming oden, hot pot, and ramen,

and even to speciality shops and water parks…

Reluctantly leaving Shu Mo’s inn, the players were shocked to find that they had gained all sorts of buffs on their bodies!

【 Roasted Sweet Potato 】After consumption, stamina recovery speed +4/h (effect lasts 24 hours)

【 Sulfur Foot Bath 】Agility +3, movement speed +3 (effect lasts 24 hours)

【 Speciality: Red Bean Bun 】Instantly restores 20 stamina points (carry limit *6)

…

The players who had already stepped out of the door quickly turned around and went back inside.

What kind of resort is this? This is clearly a massive health pack!!

Accidentally turning the survival game into an idle mobile game, Shu Mo suddenly snapped out of it one day and realized that the game had actually been cleared.

The players, brave and unmatched, with countless buffs above their heads and backpacks full of stamina and mana-restoring specialities, had wiped out the monsters’ lair.

Looking at the “Savior” title that had appeared above her head, Shu Mo: ???

When Chi Yue (Chi Shuo) was young, she had a crush on someone named He Lindi.... more>>

But He Lindi was dazzling, popular, and utterly unaware of Chi Yue’s existence, let alone her feelings.

So Chi Yue shifted her sights to another girl she secretly admired. Yet before she could make a move, she witnessed He Lindi embracing the sweet, quiet girl Chi Yue had just set her heart on—laughing, intimate, and radiant.

Chi Yue: What the hell is love anyway? Where’s my knife?

---

Everyone at Xinyue Company knows Chi Yue despises He Lindi from the upstairs firm. When asked why, her answer never changes—

“It’s just that weird magnetic field between women. I can’t stand the sight of He Lindi. Got a problem with that? Don’t make a fuss.”

Until one weekend, a colleague visits Chi Yue’s apartment to retrieve something.

The door opens to reveal He Lindi, her neck adorned with unmistakable strawberry marks.

Colleague: “Ms. He, why are you here?!”

He Lindi arches an eyebrow: “I’m her girlfriend. Where else would I be?” <<less

“And? Um, well, he’s handsome, popular, kind, skilled in swordsmanship, and a perfect lord. He’s someone to be respected.”

However, Grace seems unsatisfied with Vivian’s response.

“Have you ever thought about sleeping with him?”

“…What?!”

Vivian can’t believe her ears. Could Grace, who always seemed gentle and composed, really have said such a thing? To Vivian’s shock, Grace makes an even stranger proposal. <<less

The big men who were originally extremely impatient with children… were completely won over when facing Niuniu!

Galaxy’s Top General Eldest Uncle: "Niuniu, do you like watching fireworks? How about Uncle sets off an atomic bomb for you to see the mushroom cloud?"

Second Uncle, who is rich enough to rival a nation: "Niuniu, come to Second Uncle’s side. Little Niuniu, don’t you like flowers? Second Uncle has many flowers here: gold flowers, silver flowers, and ‘money to spend’ flowers. Which one does Niuniu like? Just take it!"

Third Uncle, the Ten Gold Film Emperor of the Entertainment Circle: "Niuniu, how about accompanying Uncle to the evening party to cut the ribbon tonight?"

Interstellar Detective Little Maternal Uncle: "Niuniu, come and help Uncle calculate who the mu*derer of this case is!"

But the mysterious Daddy scooped up Little Niuniu: "My daughter, I will pamper her!"

I woke up inside the novel [A Step Away from Hell] , a story I had read in my past life.... more>>

And not just anywhere—I found myself in a world destined to be destroyed by future disasters.

As if that wasn’t unfair enough, the place where I opened my eyes was none other than the s*ave shop where those very disasters were being raised.

Before I knew it, I had become a s*ave, forced to live in the same room as the young disasters who would one day bring about the end of the world…

“I told you, that’s Lizzie’s spot! Mary’s side has always been Lizzie’s spot…!”

“I sat here first. Why should it be yours? Explain it logically.”

“W-We should all s-sit fairly… t-together… I-I also… want to…”

“Friends shouldn’t fight…”

Yet, when I met them in person, they were nothing more than children—starved for affection.

These adorable kids… How could they possibly become the terrifying disasters that would one day destroy the world?

The answer was simple. The so-called ‘education’ of the nobles, carried out under the pretense of raising high-class s*aves.

“N-no, I d-don’t want to…! St-stay away! Don’t come near me!”

“Haah… Listen, brat. If you don’t want to get hurt, you’d better behave. Starting today, your ‘education’ begins.”

I had read the novel. I knew exactly who would take them and what horrors they would endure.

In other words, I knew how to handle the nobles.

If that’s the case…

“I’ll go instead.”

If I could take their misfortunes, couldn’t I also change the future that leads to destruction? <<less

I am Masahito Arisugawa, a pianist and violinist.

My wife, Miyako, is a world-renowned violinist—a figure who, to me, was always beyond reach.

As a musician, I’m second-rate at best. Yet, I believed I had found my own version of happiness. At least, I thought so—until that day.

On the day I turned 41, my wife Miyako left, taking our only daughter with her.

There had always been someone Miyako admired from her student days—Sousuke Mikami.

When she found out that he had divorced, she couldn’t sit still. She took our daughter, Saki, and left to chase after him.

Realizing Miyako’s true feelings, I drowned myself in alcohol, despite not being able to handle strong drinks. Lost in despair, I succumbed to acute alcohol poisoning and blacked out.

I thought I had died, but when I awoke, I found myself as a 15-year-old again.

No, that’s not quite accurate—I hadn’t just returned to my younger self; I had time-slipped 25 years into the past.

In other words, I had time-leaped.

Before me stretched the world of my first year in high school.

At my newly entered school, there were familiar faces from long ago—and a youthful, fresh Miyako.

But in this world, I resolved not to get involved with her.

(I won’t let myself end up with Miyako. That’s the only thing I’ll change. Nothing else.)

I only wished to lead a peaceful life.

However, when I unconsciously saved the life of Sachiko Kazami, the flow of time around me—what should have been the same as 25 years ago—began to shift into something entirely different… <<less

Boating on the sea of the heart, comprehension increases naturally.

Ding, ding, ding, ding: Attributes spring up like bamboo shoots after rain. Peerless martial arts such as [Six Meridian Divine Sword] , [Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms] , [Sunflower Manual] , [Dragon Fist] , [Northern Leg] , etc., all enter his possession.

As his strength increased, Lin Tian felt that his martial path was somewhat different from others. His Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms transformed into eighteen golden dragons coiling around his body. The Six Meridian Divine Sword transformed into six heaven-cleaving giant swords. The opposing thousands of troops and horses, as well as martial arts grandmasters, were all dumbfounded.

"What's the point of fighting? Are you sure you're practicing martial arts?"

Lin Tian calmly replied, "I am practicing martial arts, neither immortal nor law, but this martial art is not something ordinary people can practice."

Waiting thirty years to look back. Fists like the sea, sorrow like the tide, one fist cleaves the vast sea, shattering the nine heavens. <<less

Xing Yan was a stellar student in the Chemistry Institute, but his temperament was cold and introverted, and he communicated little with others. The first time he met Qin Fang, the two forcefully rammed their shoulders into each other. When their four eyes met, both knew that the other was not any good person.

Qin Fang jokingly flirted with Xing Yan, saying, "I’m Qin Fang, sophomore in Global Commerce. You can come find me any time, your Fang Ge will wait for you."

Later, on a quiet evening, Xing Yan was smoking on the balcony. Qin Fang used his legs as a pillow, his expression containing a little embarrassed smile as he pointed to the evening sky and said, "Actually, Qin Fang was a name I changed myself, my original name was… Jian Xingxing*."

From then on, I was not afraid of even the darkest nights, since I could just raise my head to see stars.
