The six prefectures of Zhongbo were offered to foreign enemies on a silver platter, and Shen Zechuan was taken into custody in the capital, reduced to a drowning dog* loathed and condemned by all. Xiao Chiye followed the scent of the furor and made his way over. But instead of setting others on him, he kicked Shen Zechuan with his very own leg, rendering the latter an invalid. Who would expect this invalid to turn around and bite him in a counterattack until he was all drenched in blood? That was the start of an epic feud between both men who tore at each other every time they come face-to-face with one another.

“Fate wants to bind me here for life, but this is not the path I choose. The yellow dust submerged my brothers deep under. I have no wish to bow in submission to an illusory fate. The imperial edict can’t save my troops, and the imperial court can’t fill the stomachs of my mounts. I’m no longer willing to lay down my life for this purpose. I want to surmount that mountain. I am going to fight for myself.”

Would sparks fly?

Xiao Shan’s greatest wish in life is to be a salted fish who lives without any worldly strife, until his father bestows upon him Xie Zhui, a ger who has been mixing with men, to be his bride.

With her eyes closed and then opened, Violet finds herself no longer in the game world but in a completely new and unknown place, separated from the modern society behind it.

Here, there is no doubt that it is the real world.

Violet’s incredible adventure begins, but this world seems somewhat different from what she had expected.

As a real young master of a wealthy family who was taken away by mistake, Chen Mo has never understood why it was him who was lost outside for seventeen years, and everyone still liked the fake young master Yang Shule, so he fought hard to fight, to grab, and to rob. In the end, his parents hated him, he was abandoned by his relatives and friends, and he died unexpectedly.

So after rebirth, Chen Mo thought it over.

Laughing makes you ten years younger, and going to bed early can help you live till old age.

Not long after returning home, his biological parents asked him: “Chen Mo, do you think your brother… Can he still live with us now?” Chen Mo said sincerely: “As long as you are happy.”

Aunts and uncles praised the fake young master during festivals. Chen Mo drank the wolfberry and red dates mixed soup and nodded repeatedly: “Yes, you have good taste.” The people around him openly and secretly compared the two of them, mocking him for not being worthy of the identity of a real young master of a wealthy family. Chen Mo slept soundly while soaking his feet in medicinal water: “Isn’t this a fact? Just keep talking about it, you can even go out on the streets with a loudspeaker.”

Others: “…”

Later, people found out that this real young master picked up by a wealthy family is best at three things.

Eating, sleeping, and being gay.

Not only is he gay, he also dumped the excellent student in his grade, who was the childhood sweetheart of the fake young master. Chen Mo felt extremely wronged. Xi Siyan, the cold-faced devil, didn’t like him in his previous life. How did these people came to think that he dumped him.

“How about I explain it for you?” Chen Mo tried one day.

The person leaning against the wall looked down at him and raised his eyebrows: “What do you want to explain?”

“You, Xi Siyan, will have nothing to do with me, Chen Mo, in this life, the next life, and another next life.”

The person in front of him kissed him with his hands in his pockets, and said coldly: “Now I do.”

Chen Mo was shocked; Xi Siyan! You dog forced me !

The only way to stop the earth’s doom.<br>
Is to seduce the girl who is the student council president.

I don’t need companions.

I don’t do party play.

But… the game forces party play?

After reincarnating into a modern fantasy novel he had read in his previous life and enduring all sorts of hardships, Ryu Seo-ha awakens as a precious S-class healer. However, he also sees in his status window that he has less than a month left to live. Then, after an unexpected encounter with Choi Gang-hu, the protagonist of the original novel, Seo-ha discovers that physical contact with Gang-hu increases his magical power. And Gang-hu begins to show a peculiar interest in Seo-ha.

“Do you intend to repay me?”

“Yes.”

“With your body.”

[Preview]
As Ryu Seo-ha was leaving the bathroom to contact the Awakened Management Bureau, he stumbled back in surprise. Choi Gang-hu was leaning against the entrance wall.

“Why are you here…”

As he hastily stepped back and stumbled, Gang-hu grabbed his arm to steady him.

[Magic Power 9]
At that moment, Seo-ha’s magic power stat began to skyrocket.

[Magic Power 17]
[Magic Power 25]
[Magic Power 33]
The numbers increased dramatically with each blink of an eye. It was an impossible situation. Seo-ha’s eyes widened in shock. Gang-hu also seemed to sense the anomaly, raising his handsome eyebrows high.

For some unknown reason, a chill ran down his spine. Reflexively, he shook off the hand holding his arm, and the feeling of every cell being filled to the brim suddenly stopped. Feeling dizzy, Seo-ha shakily leaned against the wall for support.

[Magic Power 41]
In that short time, his magic power stat had surpassed 40. This was a level that could only be barely achieved by investing all stat points gained up to level 40 into magic power. It was an astounding situation.

Gang-hu, looking down at him with eyes as dark as an abyss, didn’t seem to have intentionally infused him with magic power. There was no reason for him to do so, and it was impossible for the stat itself to increase like this. Even if it were just an increase in magic power capacity, it would be enough to make him a research subject.

“I thought I was imagining things,” Gang-hu muttered in a low voice as he slowly reached out his hand again. His long fingers lightly touched Seo-ha’s pale cheek. As he shrank his neck at the cool sensation, Gang-hu’s large hand cupped his entire cheek.

I freed the s*aves, but for some reason, they keep chasing after me.

“I made a Pact with a Demon. For Free.”

In a world where 100 Earthlings are summoned and trained as heroes to stop the Demon King:

“Hey, jackpot! I got an A-level aptitude!”

“Really? I’m only C-level…”

“I’m a ‘Fire Mage.’ This is an S-level aptitude. Awesome, right?”

“Sounds good? I also got an S-level ‘adamantine warrior.'”

Even casually listening, excited voices penetrated deep into the ears. Seo Woojin checked his ‘status window’ with a gloomy look.

====================
? Name: Seo Woojin

? Occupation Aptitude: Demon King[Unable to measure]

? Level: 1

? Skills: ??? [Passive] ====================

Lifting his head, a large banner hanging in front of him caught his eye.

?Welcome, warriors from another world who have responded to the summons to prevent the 8th Demon King Invasion.?

Something sparkled in Seo Woojin’s eyes. “Ah, I’m screwed.”

I fell into a phony martial world. But they say martial arts are so hard? Hmm… is that all there is to it?

When I woke up, I found myself stuck in the body of a billionaire that is envied by everyone.

I also had a school beauty for a daughter and a cheap son on the side.

It’s a perfect starting point, he could retire right away, but Qin Yan couldn’t feel happy at all.

Why? It’s because his current identity was the father of a villainous second-generation rich kid.

The whole family were villains, and are eventually brought to ruin by the protagonist.

Just as Qin Yan was in despair, a system descended.

[Ding, the Great Villain System is now bound. Reward: Evolutionary Healing Light]

[Teach your son, successfully reverse the plot, and be rewarded with Grandmaster-level martial arts.]

[Adopt the protagonist’s daughter, rewarded with divine skills!]

“Finally, the owner has appeared. You read me.”

The Archmage’s legacy, the Book of Truth.

Binair Dalheim, a dropout of the Elfenbein Tower, accidentally discovers the Book of Truth.

“I will awaken your magical talent. In return, complete me.”

The dropout boy, whose dormant talent has been awakened, begins his journey to retrieve the Book of Truth as requested.

A big shot transmigrates into supporting male characters who end up lonely; slaps faces, ab*ses scumbags, and falls in love.

What joy can a company worker have?

It was a continuous mundane daily life, living day by day, waiting only for the weekend to arrive.
