[You Died.] [Death may be the end for some, but for you, it's just a new beginning.] [Try again?] [Yes or No…/N] Fifty-seven years ago, humanity faced near extinction but managed to survive thanks to Hunters, humans who awakened special powers and fought monsters. Now in 2077, becoming a hunter was a job many awakened aspired to, be it for fame, wealth, justice, or just vengeance. Cain was no different. Made an orphan by a dungeon break eight years ago, he sought to become a hunter. There was just one problem. Even after eight years of training, not only did he not progress, but his power regressed instead. Making him the first I-rank Hunter on Earth. With his magical circuit corrupted by the abyss, and his guild discarding him, his lifelong dream of becoming an official hunter looked to be forever out of reach. Until one day he died... and woke up the day before with a new class and an opportunity to enter the Tower of Trials. Now that he had unlimited chances to train and engage in deadly fights, just how far could he go? How many deaths will it take to reach the top? __________ What to expect: -Tower Ascension -Dungeon Exploration -Monster Extermination -Power Progression -Time Manipulation.

In a sky filled with mechs as agile as dragons and an abyss echoing with the whispers and roars of gods and demons, Lu Yuan stumbles into an era where new and old techniques collide, technology clashes with divine power. He arrives carrying an attribute panel that allows for infinite job changes. "Profession [Martial Arts Grandmaster] + Material [Heart of the Nine-Headed Abyssal Dragon], can be advanced and changed to [Fallen Dark Dragon Sect]..." Lu Yuan gazes at his hands gradually covered in black scales, his dark hair dancing wildly without wind. His crimson eyes lock onto the humanoid mechanical bodies streaking across the night sky like meteors. With a smile, he whispers to himself: "Now... I should be able to tear apart mechs with my bare hands..." ------------------------------------------ This is a translation work.

One day, he's a Level-6 Farmer. The next, he's a Level-36 Knight. Dal Rineloch always knew that he was cursed or broken in a very serious way. For one, he can't seem to age, as he's almost fifty years old and looks like a kid. But worse, in a world where everyone awakens to their class on their 15th birthday, Dal has inexplicably been shifting in, out, and between classes for a reason he can neither understand nor explain, shifting for a random duration each time. Sometimes, he even shifts into classes that don't exist! Now, with an ancient evil rising again for the first time in 20,000 years, Dal may possibly be the only man alive who can stop it: assuming he's not stuck being a level-82 rat catcher or, even worse, a turnip farmer. With the fate of Galiad hanging in the balance, Dal must finally break out of his comfort zone and seek to control this strange curse, which under the right circumstances, just may be a gift. *What to expect OP protagonist sometimes. Very weak protagonist sometimes. EXTREMELY OP protagonist sometimes. A turnip farmer sometimes. Action, fantasy, combat, soft lit RPG elements. Romance is possible but not the focus. Violence and gore.

Aethernox, once the God of Creation, Destruction, and War, awakens as a mortal in the fog-drenched Wraithbone Marsh after being betrayed and cast down by his fellow deities. Reduced to Level 1 but retaining infinite Skill Points and fragments of divine essence, he embarks on a quest of unprecedented evolution that transcends traditional concepts of power and divinity. Accompanied by Dame Lyralei—a divine hybrid paladin who becomes his unlikely ally—and Sir Galahad the Redeemed—a fallen knight seeking redemption—Aethernox conquers eight mystical realms connected by the Great World Tree. Each realm tests different aspects of existence. Through each conquest, Aethernox gains Origin Relics that enhance his abilities beyond godlike power, but more importantly, he learns that true evolution comes through understanding, cooperation, and transformation rather than domination. His unique Infinite Evolutionist class allows him to extract, fuse, and infinitely upgrade skills while absorbing traits from defeated enemies, constantly adapting and growing stronger. As his power reaches levels that threaten reality's stability, the Unified Pantheon—the gods who orchestrated his original betrayal—prepares for a final confrontation. They fear not just his return to divine status, but his transformation into something beyond their comprehension: a being who evolves infinitely, masters impossibility itself, and proves that any limitation can be transcended through will, wisdom, and the courage to embrace infinite becoming. The story explores themes of redemption, growth beyond traditional boundaries, the power of cooperation over domination, and what it truly means to evolve—not just in strength, but in understanding, purpose, and connection to others. It's a tale where the fallen god doesn't seek simple revenge, but instead becomes something greater than he ever was, challenging the very foundations of divine authority and cosmic order.

Armed with knowledge of tactics, logistics, and industrial engineering centuries ahead of this new world, he begins a lifelong campaign to transform his backwater barony into an unbreakable bastion—politically, militarily, and economically—while navigating court intrigue, love, and the mysteries of the system that governs his new reality.

To protect the destiny’s chosen from the shadows… because the moment he steps into the light, destiny will drag him in for good.

“You have entered the Genesis Game. Your class has been assigned.” That was the first thing William heard. Not a god. Not a savior. Just a voice—cold, mechanical, final. He wasn’t given a choice. He wasn’t given a prayer. Only a title that burned into his soul… and a hunger he can’t explain. The world has changed. The sun is gone. And every human now carries something inside them—something that draws monsters from the dark. Level up, survive, adapt. That’s the rule. But William is learning quickly: In this game, the system doesn’t care who you were. Only what you’re willing to become. A psychological progression fantasy where power demands sacrifice, survival is a curse, and even your thoughts aren’t safe.
A cyberpunk world where martial arts are downloaded, chi is tracked by implants, and street gangs hold the keys to ancient power. Jian Lin was a rising prodigy of House Yulan—until he was sabotaged, branded a traitor, and cast out with his martial grafts corrupted and his status erased. Left with nothing but a fractured chi core and outlawed implants, Jian becomes a stray in Neo-Ilium, a neon-drenched megacity where combat styles are corporate property and fighting without a license is a death sentence. But Jian isn’t just another exile. Hidden deep within his broken code is the prototype of a forbidden martial path—one designed to adapt, evolve, and overwrite everything the system considers sacred. Hunted by corporate sects and shadow syndicates, Jian dives into the city's forgotten sectors and rogue arenas to forge his own style from flame, root, and raw survival. As his power grows and his legend spreads, Jian must face rival disciples, chi-augmented killers, and corrupted masters in a journey that mirrors an ancient myth—but told in blood, circuitry, and glass. He was cast out as a weapon. He will return as a scroll.
The world ended not with fire, but with a voice. When the System descended, seventy percent of humanity were turned into zombies. The rest awakened as “Players” — bound to a new reality of levels, classes, and power. But survival is not just about fighting the dead. It’s about facing the monsters that awaken in the hearts of men. Elias Cross was nobody — a construction worker abandoned by his parents, scraping by in silence. When the apocalypse arrives, he awakens not as a hero, but as a Laborer: the weakest of classes. No power, no glory. Just a hammer in his hands and a will to endure. Yet in a world that rewards cruelty, Elias chooses compassion. He refuses to abandon others, even when it puts his life at risk. Slowly, through scars and sacrifices, he will rise. From a forgotten worker to a protector. From a weak survivor to the Saint of Dawn, a beacon in the darkness of the end. But the System is merciless. Safe zones are guarded by monsters. Loot corrupts the soul. Betrayal is as deadly as any beast. And beyond Tier 5, a greater truth waits — a final trial that could decide whether humanity deserves to survive at all. In a world where kindness is weakness, can Elias’ light burn against the endless night? Or will the darkness consume even him?
