The Strongest Former Hero Who Became a Great Criminal Kneads Bread from Morning Again Today──!... more>>

The hero Haruto challenged the threat that could destroy the world, together with his comrades: the Calamity Causal Dungeon – Abyss Sanctum.

To let his comrades escape, he said, “I’ll catch up later, so go on ahead──!” and disappeared.

Five years later.

He somehow survived, but what awaited him was not a hero’s welcome—

for some reason, it was the brand of a traitor to the nation.

His former comrades had grown into beautiful women and had begun to move forward, accepting Haruto’s death.

In these five years, everything had changed and there was no place left for him.

So Haruto heads to the remote town of Rothen.

There, he starts working as a baker──

but for some reason, his former comrades begin visiting the shop one after another.

Haruto wants to quietly spend the rest of his life, but he is the former hero, the strongest in the world.

There’s no way the people around him would just leave him alone……

And thus, Haruto ends up gaining great fame in an unexpected way.

Encounters. Farewells.

This is the story of a shadow hero who lost everything and takes back the truth and his bonds. <<less

Liu Zhenqing was a notorious powerful official in the history of the Zhou Dynasty.... more>>

It was rumored that he was ruthless, brought trouble to the Imperial Court, used the young emperor as a puppet, and had a disloyal heart.

However, heaven had eyes. In the end, Liu Zhenqing was shot through the heart by an arrow and died tragically.

No one could calculate how many sins he had committed. They only knew that after his death, a victim dug up his grave in the middle of the night, crushed his bones, and scattered his ashes.

After his death, Liu Zhenqing reflected on himself. He, a transmigrator, had been reborn as the favored eldest son of a prominent noble family. How had he become a treacherous official?

It was probably because he worked too hard.

He swore that in his next life, he would treat himself well. As a result, in the blink of an eye, he became a distant relative of the same clan eight years later.

Although he was still the eldest son, he was a love-minded cutsleeve. Moreover, everyone in the capital knew that he was frantically pursuing the man who had dug up his predecessor’s grave, General Huo Fenglie.

The people around him still had grudges against him from his previous life, and he was attacked from both sides.

Liu Zhenqing: ……How about I keep a low profile?

Thus, the traitorous official didn’t want to take revenge, but only wanted to stop trying, escape, and live a wonderful retired life as soon as possible.

But when he finally arrived in a carriage at the city gates, the city was sealed shut.

When he looked back, the God of War Huo Fenglie, who was supposed to be standing in front of thousands of troops without a change of expression, was in a state of disorder. As if he had lost his manners, he grabbed Liu Zhenqing’s wrist tightly and lowered his scarlet eyes, his voice slightly unstable: You…….where are you going?

He said: You can’t leave, come home with me.

Liu Zhenqing: ……

f*ck! He couldn’t have recognized him, right? According to the rumors, he was the villain who killed his brother, coveted his sister-in-law, and plotted against his country!

Thinking of the fate of his last body, he shivered.

The little wolf cub finally took home the bone he had longed for. Soon after, the gossiping souls of the people in the capital burned brightly.

Wasn’t it said that the General had a person he was deeply in love with, which was why he had refused the Emperor’s marriage offers several times? Why had he started to hide away a lover? Was he hiding that idiot who had originally harassed him?

Sure enough, a strong man could be won over with persistence! <<less

In her previous life, Han Cuiyin, as the daughter of an abandoned wife, was not acknowledged by either her paternal or maternal clans. Due to her stunning beauty, she always attracted troublesome romantic entanglements. ... more>>

By chance, she married into the Duke Dingguo's Residence in a wedding meant to ward off bad luck for the Heir Apparent, whom she considered an ill-fated connection. Framed by a concubine in the back courtyard, she was drowned in a pig cage.

On that day, her birth mother appeared, and mother and daughter went to the Yellow Springs together. Heaven does not abandon the unfortunate. She transmigrated to the Eternal Life Realm and spent a thousand years as the Emerald Rakshasa Sound Fairy.

Later, she perished together with the Great Demon King and returned once more to her first lifetime, finding herself still in Yan Family Village.

A few days after her rebirth, while bearing a dark face, she became entangled again with the ill-fated connection from her previous life.

The ill-fated connection said, "Young Lady, for the favor of saving my life, how about..."

"The favor of saving your life is worth one hundred thousand taels."

Han Cuiyin interrupted directly, forcing the overwhelmingly aristocratic Young Lord Heir Apparent to write an IOU. ... She had assumed the two of them would have no further interaction, but unexpectedly, her mother was taken away from the nunnery by her birth father's stepmother, vanishing without a trace.

With a very dark face and left with no other choice, Han Cuiyin entered the Capital and took up residence in the Han Manor under the guise of a cousin. The vast Han Manor was no longer peaceful due to her arrival. The Han family members bullied her openly and secretly, yet at night, they were plagued by nightmares and struck by lightning, suffering unbearably.

While suffering torment in the Han Manor, Han Cuiyin received the help of a Grand Princess and incidentally obtained Qingshuang Mountain from her. She also developed a deeper entanglement with the ill-fated connection from her previous life.

Until she discovered that her friend from the Eternal Life Realm had also come to the Muye World, after which a series of unexpected events occurred.

The Spiritual Energy of the Muye World completely disappeared. On the Sixth Day of the Sixth Lunar Month, she recognized her ancestors and returned to the clan. Han Cuiyin's face had long since recovered its fair complexion.

Upon seeing the young lady in the green dress who wielded thunder punishment in their dreams, everyone in the Han Manor trembled in fear. From then on, the peaceful life of the Han Manor was shattered. <<less

At a young age, I was caught up in a Gate incident and barely made it out alive. ... more>>

They called me a "miracle child," Jung Jehee.

But that so-called "miracle" meant nothing—I had only barely survived.

I lost my sight, my ability to move freely, and was even diagnosed as terminally ill.

Trapped in a hospital room, all I could do was wait for the day I would die...

Then, in a moment of life-or-death crisis, I awakened as Korea's first-ever S-rank.

After a long, long hospital stay, my new life as an S-rank began.

It should have been something to celebrate.

So why is it that my childhood friend, Im Taehwan, who had been so devoted to me throughout my years of illness, is acting so strange?

"Jehee... don’t tell me... you can see through me?"

Even after learning about my awakening, he seemed oddly unsettled.

"After you're discharged, I was thinking... how about living with me?"

He insisted on living together for some reason.

"Once you're out, why don’t we go study abroad? Anywhere is fine."

Out of nowhere, he started suggesting we move overseas together.

For thirteen years, he took care of me every single day. He should be free to live his own life now.

For the sake of my kind but stubborn friend, I tried my best to gain independence from him.

But then—

"Ah, that? It’s called a re-awakening."

"Seems like I got a little stronger."

To make matters worse, my childhood friend followed right behind me—awakening as the second-ever S-rank in Korea.

Just days after I became the first.

"How did Taehwan end up awakening as an S-rank like me...?"

Is S-rank something contagious?

This is getting seriously weird.

* * *

"Jung Jehee. Do you really not want to live with me?"

"You’re in danger just by being with me. You’re only a B-rank and don’t even have combat abilities. At best, you’re just a normal person with slightly better stamina and strength."

Could Taehwan, who has a non-combat ability, really protect me?

He stayed silent, as if he couldn’t argue with what I said.

"No, it’s just that..."

"You only said your house feels empty to reassure my mom, didn’t you? The truth is, you like being alone—that’s why you never joined a guild. I know how hard it is for solo artifact creators to survive. And yet, you insist on staying independent."

"No, it’s true that I like being alone. But... you..."

"I’m a bit special?"

"...Uh... well... no, I mean..."

"So? What exactly do you mean?"

"...You are... a little special... I guess...?"

Avoiding my gaze, he mumbled under his breath, "We’re friends, after all..."

For someone so big, he still acts just like he did when we were kids.

He won’t meet my eyes, yet he won’t let go of me either. <<less

In chaotic times, seek survival; in prosperous times, seek fame.... more>>

The Dayu Dynasty, weathered by countless hardships, remains in its era of prosperity.

In the northwest, a young man travels nine thousand miles on foot, single-handedly slaying a great demon, striving for lifelong glory.

At Dragon Lake, an unparalleled master descends to the mortal world, founding a sect that will be remembered for centuries.

In the imperial capital, a sage preaches to thousands, his disciples spread across the provinces, leaving an eternal legacy.

And within a martial family estate in Qingzhou City,

A child spends his days idly, only playing chess, painting, fishing, and playing the lute.

Years later—

A sword rises, its dragon-like smoke stretches three thousand miles, and with one strike, nine cities are vanquished!

She was a secret guard, codenamed 37, later named Qingge by Ning Wang.... more>>

One day, she narrowly escaped death and was sent out to recover from her injuries. On the way, someone approached her, claiming she resembled the young lady he served. The young lady was suffering from a chronic illness, and he asked her to take her place in the wedding, hiding the truth from the groom for five months. The man offered her a generous sum of silver notes, and Qingge, being greedy, accepted.

But what she never expected was that the fiancée’s groom turned out to be none other than her master, Ning Wang…

Fortunately, no one knew the face of the secret guards, except for Heaven, Earth, and their Pavilion Master. Ning Wang had no idea. Qingge successfully hid her identity and cautiously played the role of a Wangfei.

Ning Wang was extraordinarily handsome but had a violent temper. One day, while investigating a traitor, he harshly interrogated all the secret guards. One of them ended up being punished for a trivial matter, receiving a hundred whip lashes, leaving the ground stained with blood. Ning Wang remained indifferent.

The Emperor arranged a marriage for Ning Wang with the legitimate daughter of the presitigious Xiahou clan of Ganliang. The Wangfei was gentle, charming, and pure in nature. Initially, Ning Wang was indifferent and cautious but eventually fell for her.

After ten months of pregnancy, the Wangfei gave birth to a son. When she returned after a visit to her natal family, Ning Wang gripped her by the throat and coldly demanded, “Where is this prince’s Wangfei?”

Though the woman before him looked alike, she was not her.

It was then that he realized the Wangfei he had shared his life with was a fake, brought in by the Xiahou family with money!

In his fury, Ning Wang unleashed a bloodbath.

Afterward, he searched everywhere for that woman, but despite turning the world upside down, he could not find her.

Three years passed, and Ning Wang’s initial rage and hatred turned into silence and contemplation, eventually giving way to quiet coldness.

Until one day, under the dim light of the waning moon, he gazed at the fallen phoenix tree leaves at his feet, covering the elongated shadow of the secret guard behind him.

In a low voice, he asked, “It’s you, isn’t it?” <<less

Rast’s time was hopelessly frozen on the same day after transmigrating into the western fantasy game Snow Moon Emblem.... more>>

No matter what he did, when dusk arrived, the resurrected Old God would erase the entire city known as Deep Blue Port, along with every trace Rast had left behind.

Time would rewind, and everything would begin again.

He had once been joyful, using endless time to pursue various women, studying the most obscure and remote books in the library, honing each of his skills to perfection...

He had also despaired, attempting to prevent the descent of the evil god, only to fall into utter hopelessness amidst endless failures...

Until that day, after three hundred years of rewinding and failing, when Rast once again, in his mortal body, faced the Old God head-on, he saw a figure that absolutely should not have appeared.

“Eh? According to history, Deep Blue Port should have been destroyed by the aftermath of the divine descent.”

The poster girl from the game cover, the 「Azure Silver Sword Saint」 Shiltina, was staring at him with a face full of confusion.

“And also, who is this strange Historical Echo instance NPC, and why is there absolutely no record of him in the chronicles?”

Rast: ?

So this is a replica projected from past history, and I’m just an NPC in the historical instance?

So, I’ve been playing the beta server for a whole three hundred years?

With your sword, child? Or your flesh and blood?

You should be grateful that they still consider themselves mortals.

Yun Si is just a low-ranking palace maid.... more>>

She's not a good person, but she's a beauty.

She knows her lowly status, even if she leaves the palace, marrying into a noble family as a concubine would be considered a great honor.

She's accustomed to the luxurious life in the palace and can't go back to her old life.

So, she set her sights on the Emperor.

Everyone says Yun Si is cunning and has gained the Emperor's favor.

But no one knows, after being favored by the Emperor, Yun Si remained a nameless and title-less palace maid for two whole years.

Tan Yuanchu initially noticed Yun Si because of her clumsy and seemingly clever flattery.

He kept Yun Si by his side for two whole years before finally granting her the title she wanted.

He watched coldly as Yun Si became arrogant and domineering after gaining power.

Until the end, Tan Yuanchu realized that he wasn't just infatuated with her beauty, but with everything about her, including her hidden thoughts that she thought she had concealed well.

After a night of heavy drinking with a friend, he wakes up to find himself possessed by a character in a dark, explicit novel he recently read.

And the character he transmigrated into?

None other than Ed, a lowly servant who gets killed by the revenge-driven male lead!

But could it be that he transmigrated into the character too early?

In the original story, the male lead is just a 9-year-old boy with gentle eyes, mistreated as an adopted child.

Seeing the boy, Ed recognizes a reflection of his own orphaned past and decides to help him reunite with his lost brother.

“Congratulations, Young Master Ronan! And to you too, Your Grace, Grand Duke Asnel Linden!”

In the original novel, he was only briefly mentioned, but Grand Duke Asnel Linden is known for ruling the northern region, feared even by the imperial family for his cold and ruthless nature.

Mo Yunxuan was brought to the wrong world by the system, and the system also collapsed for the most part. ... more>>

Good news: After transmigrating, he inherited the title of Duke of Wei, possessing 200,000 Imperial City Guards.

Bad news: A bunch of Children of Destiny and antagonist protagonists have extremely strong troublemaking abilities, and he is nothing at all...

He, a powerful duke with 200,000 Imperial City Guards, seems to have become a background character for cleaning up the mess afterward?

It would be fine if he could enjoy life in peace, but why are so many people plotting against my Wei State Duke's Mansion from the start?

Or is it that the swords, sabers, spears, and halberds of my Wei State Duke's Mansion are not sharp enough?

Mo Yunxuan just wanted a bowl of spicy hot pot. Instead, he got transmigrated. And a broken system. Now, as the newly-minted Duke of Wei in a high-martial world brimming with cultivators and scheming nobles, Mo Yunxuan is woefully unprepared.

Lü Yang transmigrated into the Cultivation World and became a disciple of the Demon Sect, the Primordial Saint Sect.... more>>

Fortunately, he obtained the mysterious treasure 【Book of a Hundred Lifetimes】, which allowed him to restart a new lifetime after death, letting everything begin anew. He could even bring back treasures, cultivation, lifespan, and might even awaken special talents from his previous life.

However, the number of uses was limited; it did not grant true immortality.

As the Cultivation World was on the verge of chaotic times, Lü Yang had originally decided to lie low in the Demon Sect, cultivating painstakingly through one lifetime after another. He would not leave the mountain unless he achieved immortality. Yet, the Demon Sect was extraordinarily perilous, and talents were everywhere.

In the first lifetime, Lü Yang suffered a forced assault and was directly overexerted to death by his Senior Sister.

In the second lifetime, Lü Yang seized power from below and overexerted his Senior Sister to death, but still could not escape the deadly hands of his Senior Brother.

The third lifetime... The fourth lifetime...

Until after a hundred lifetimes, when he looked back, Lü Yang realized that he had already become a Great Overlord of the Demonic Path, the most beastly existence within the Primordial Saint Sect.

Song Zhenyan is a genius medical professor who has a Buddha-like calmness and enjoys yangsheng and drinking tea.... more>>

After suddenly dying in a violent accident, he transmigrates into a novel with six genders—

Song Zhenyan: What’s my mission?

System: …Your calmness scares me…

System: Your mission is to save the main villain who will end up killing you, and to promote love and peace.

“……” Song Zhenyan: “So where’s the main villain?”

The system showed him a photo: it was a sweet-faced, innocent-looking protagonist. Only Song Zhenyan knew that the monster lurking behind those eyes was the same one from his nightmares.

———

After a rational analysis, Song Zhenyan concluded that the method to reform an extreme psycho should follow these steps: minimal contact, occasional help, and most importantly: maintain a safe distance.

However, the second time he met Tong Jiannian was at his eighteenth birthday party.

The pretty boy with slightly long hair appeared in his room, suffering from severe post-differentiation complications.

The room was filled with the strong scent of wine…

A few days later, the kid who said, “I don’t need you to take responsibility,” showed up at his doorstep with a suitcase.

“Uncle Song…” Tears welled in those pitiful eyes. “They said no one wants an omega who’s been marked. I’ve been thrown out… Will you take me?”

Song Zhenyan tried to explain that he was the one who’d been bitten—

“Pling” a single tear fell from Tong Jiannian’s eye.

“……”

———

Tong Jiannian’s parents died in a car accident, and even the remaining experimental data of their [Pupil] research project was taken by an outsider.

He carefully infiltrated Song Zhenyan’s life step by step, hoping to find evidence that would make his life worse than death, but later he discovered that——

At the funeral, the one holding an umbrella for him was Song Zhenyan; the one placing flowers on the basement window was still him. He even “stole” [Pupil] to save his glands…

From the very first day Tong Jiannian moved into his house, Song Zhenyan had been waiting for the nightmare to come true.

Unexpectedly, at the engagement party plot point where the truth was revealed, Tong Jiannian not only did not hack him into pieces, but instead, flashed him with those beautiful eyes and negotiated with him, “Uncle Song, if you marry me, I will give you everything.”

“…….” The pe*vert from the dream has turned into another kind of pe*vert.

Tong Jiannian hugged Song Zhenyan and lovingly said, “Uncle Song, you’re so kind. I really, really like you.”

“……” Song Zhenyan was immune to his cute act and took out a pill, “This is a new suppressant developed by [Pupil] . Want to give it a try?”

This concubine was stunningly beautiful, adept at both literature and dance, hardworking, and always brought him fresh excitement. The Prince couldn't help but take a second, then a lifetime-long, look at her.

Years later, Shen Wei became the all-powerful Imperial Noble Consort, with children and the emperor's exclusive favor.

Meanwhile, the princess consort remained as tranquil as ever; the concubine was aging and had yet to experience a monogamous life; and the reincarnated woman was still eating simple meals in her modest abode...

After half a lifetime of striving, Shen Wei finally reached retirement and revealed her true nature, fully embracing a life of leisure. The retired emperor interjected: "You competed for favor just to retire?"

Shen Wei snacked on melon seeds: "What else?"

Living is all about retirement!

The retired emperor was even more surprised to find, in midlife, that other men were vying for his wife's affections! <<less

First Senior Brother is a hopeless romantic, Second Senior Brother carries a deep-seated blood feud. Third Senior Sister is caught in a love-hate cycle with the Demon Lord across three lifetimes, and Fourth Senior Sister is a femme fatale. ... more>>

The Sect Leader left the sect for love, while the Martial Uncle fell into demonic cultivation for the woman he loved…

Neither immortal nor heroic, just handsome men and beautiful women playing house.

Only the Little Junior Brother is reliable, upholding the sect while dedicating himself to profound cultivation.

The heavens stretch vast and mighty, my Dao shall prosper!

With righteousness in his heart, grand ambitions, and the fate of the world as his responsibility—

"Disciple Li Xuanxiao, requesting the Sect Leader to die!!"

"......"

The Empress: "Open your eyes and look at me. I don’t believe your eyes are truly empty."

Li Xuanxiao's eyes widened like bronze bells.

The Empress: "For you, I would rather bury the entire world with me."

Li Xuanxiao backhanded her with a slap: "What did the common people do to you?!"

"......."

Blood Demon Patriarch: "Should evil truly deserve death?"

Li Xuanxiao: "If you don’t die, then do I have to?! Hurry up and die!!"

"......"

By chance, he encounters a gravely injured demoness—stunningly beautiful.

Li Xuanxiao: "Let’s see if my poison can’t kill you!!"

"Take my sword and feel a thousand holes piercing through you!!"

"....."

Li Xuanxiao transmigrated one day—no system, no chosen one destiny, only the relentless pursuit of immortality.

But the sect is a bit unreliable.

First Senior Brother constantly attempts su*cide because of unrequited love.

Third Senior Sister brings the Demon Lord right into the sect.

His master, stuck in puberty, ran away for love.

Little Junior Sister is determined to seduce him.

The Empress sees him as her dream lover. <<less
