I want money.... more>>

The merchant who had inherited a tool shop from his father was tired of the low-profit quick return business.

Because the profits were not substantial, his daily life remained unchanged.

So, he decided to buy a s*ave.

Adventurers could potentially earn immense wealth if they succeeded. However, he disliked the danger. Then let the s*aves do it.

After all, what belongs to the s*ave belongs to the master.

Yes—this was the era of the s*ave business.

This is the story of a merchant who buys s*aves and turns them into adventurers.

As he provided maximum support to nurture them, the s*aves became stronger and stronger.

He didn’t know. He was unwittingly creating adventurers with incredible strength.

This is the story of how one merchant’s whim can change the course of history. <<less

The newly started game is connected to another world.... more>>

[Dungeon minions have offered sacrifices to the master.]

But they keep offering sacrifices.

I graduated at the bottom of my class at the academy, and now it's my turn to become stronger in this other world where I was once banished. <<less

I was playing a boring game where you don’t level up no matter what you do, there’s no event happening and it was even FREE on *** store. I had an argument on relationship stuff, was angry and decided to destroy the village in a game, then a notification pop-up…... more>>

-Your karma has increased by 10.

-You are now at level 2.

Graphics of the game changed. Acquired magic. Saved a village girl that was chased by bandits. Gained a cultist.

It seems the events are starting to take place. Lets see what happens… <<less

I've taken possession of a wizard in the game. However, I'm way too strong.

Sailboat, adventure, gunpowder – the wind and the stars.... more>>

“Amy, if I had a lot of money, I’ll buy the stars. They’re the most beautiful thing in the world.”

“Well, if I had a lot of money, I’ll buy the wind. I feel like I could ride on the wind and fly.”

Our heroine, together with her adjutant Amy, embarks on a seafaring adventure in a small, rundown boat, staking her life and future on the sea.

No romance. No harem. No isekai, magic, martial arts, or game system.

Just good old voyaging during the Age of Sail, exploring different cultures and environments, trading with merchants, and engaging in naval warfare.

Woke up and realized I was reincarnated as the eldest daughter of a vampire count, and I also became a hostage of humans?... more>>

Well, I guess I obtained cheat-like invincible abilities, so safety isn’t a problem. But the original owner of this body is just too evil!

TLN: The MC possesses the stats from the game!

Not only does she keep a bunch of beautiful girls as pets, but she also has a severe sadistic tendency?

“Isn’t being a vampire princess all about being cute!”

Of course not, this is a story about a vampire princess who wants to be a good person but has to act extremely fierce in front of others. <<less

As if waking up in a martial arts novel wasn’t bad enough, I expected to be born with a silver spoon according to the original setting, but my situation seems off—more like a gold-plated spoon.... more>>

“What kind of family treats their direct descendants worse than servants? Does that even make sense?”

At least I inherited some wealth from my late parents. So, I thought I’d escape my terrible household, avoid the harassment from my uncles, and live a quiet, long life.

“If anyone messes with my people, the story changes.”

An eye for an eye, as they say. They tried to keep me down because of the position of young leader of the Golden Scale Trading Group, huh?

“Guess I’ll have to take that position myself.”

To get back at my uncles who wronged me, I aimed to become the heir of the trading group. Using the knowledge from the original story, I made my move. But then…

“This job really suits me too well.”

I easily dealt with the Eighteen River Pirates and the Green Forest bandits by using the power of negotiation.

“Oh, you little rat! You scoundrel! Are you trying to starve us all to death?”

Clearing out those outlaws also allowed me to tidy up the black market and gather useful items and information.

“The royal house is requesting an additional deal. And I’ve received letters from sects beyond the borders. What on earth did you do?”

As I successfully closed more deals, I even caught the annoying attention of my grandfather, who had previously ignored me.

“If you’re curious, pay up. Nothing in this world is free.”

People started calling me more of a money-grubber than my grandfather ever was.

“I’ve got too much to protect now; I can’t afford to slack.”

No matter how much I gathered, it was never enough, especially considering the bloody storms that would come in the original plot. Amidst all this…

“You’ve taken me in, so now you have to take responsibility.”

The person I raised and set free returned, trailing after me. You weren’t this obedient and tame before.

“Oh, forget it.”

First, I’ll deal with this damned original story. Then I’ll figure out the rest. <<less
