Synopsis

It’s not always the Asians who get isekaied. Very rarely does an American get chosen, though the lords of isekai have reasons for that.
It’s time for John to remind them of those reasons.

This story started as a gag. It is no longer a gag.

Axiom of Infinity: Souleater

★ 4.64

TSeris

"They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. What then are we to think of it when the gods themselves steal our ideas on how the universe should work? Can we complain when they turn reality into a game? Can we get a refund on life itself? The gods claim they answered our prayers. That they built this world with us in mind. That they brought us here for our own sake. Maybe they did. Personally I think they have their own reasons. We're not the players in this game, we're the pieces on the board.

Still... What if it's fun?"

Axiom of Infinity follows the story of several travelers from Earth as they attempt to make new lives for themselves in a world with monsters and dungeons, where RPG mechanics are as innate as the laws of physics, and where the gods themselves seem to be playing a very different game–one with unknown stakes and strange alliances. Blessed by two gods and cursed by another, one man finds himself at the center of their machinations, a pawn destined to become a queen.

This is a LitRPG Novel built on a hard system with a lot of depth and customization, but which tries not to beat you over the head with numbers constantly. In this world finding and reporting bugs and exploits is both encouraged and rewarded, and the gods have found the most qualified testers in the multiverse: Us. Now the unsuspecting natives of Astra are going to have to learn to live with a bunch of min-maxing, power-gaming, spreadsheet slinging nerds and gamers of all shapes and sizes as we do what we do best... break things.

Courting Death (Xianxia, Reincarnation) (RETURNING JAN 5TH)

★ 4.78

Blue Moon 13

Martin Zheng has always held dying hands and listened for the hush that comes after the final heartbeat. It's his gift, his burden. Until the night he gives his own life to shove a child away from speeding headlights and awakens in Death's embrace.

She is Thanara: silver-haired, star-eyed, lonelier than the long darkness she guides. For one stolen moment, two caretakers share a tenderness deeper than fear, then the cosmos snatches Martin away, declaring his demise "an error" and hurling him back to existence.

Reborn as Mingxuan in the Elemental Realm, a land where sword-saints carve mountains, skies burn a different colour each day, and power is measured in the lives you can end, Martin remembers only fragments: a scent of rain-drenched lilacs, a pulse in his chest, a promise to meet Death again. While rival sects chase immortality, he walks the forbidden Dao of Death, mastering the grace of endings so he can stand beside the woman no one dares to love.

Redemption Arc

★ 4.81

Nemobrosus

Lord Lucian Villamar left a trail of misery in his wake. His narcissistic lifestyle was sustained by his father, whose presence loomed large over the continent. At every turn, Lucian avoided the consequences of his actions. Instead, he was awarded roles he didn’t deserve, and those more talented than he was were suppressed to grant him opportunities he didn’t appreciate. Lucian was the archetypal entitled rich villain, and for that reason, players and characters within the turn-based strategy RPG War of Four loved nothing more than his brutal downfall.

Now, however, a new soul that enjoyed challenge runs in War of Four has entered that body at a rather poor time—the start of the game. His relationship with his father is frayed. Powerful figures in the four major nations all want to see him dead, or worse. Conspiracies are underway, both by political factions and malevolent powers. And Lucian, devoid of talent, is wholly unprepared for these coming calamities.

As for our protagonist… maybe he can plot a route to survive this challenge run.

Shadows Over Arcadia

★ 4.64

Zacheas

The unwanted second prince of a powerful but corrupt Kingdom in a world of monsters and magic is set on the dangerous path of vengeance. Prince Ren Drakemore, under the protection and guidance of his demonic maid, works to covertly gain power, influence, and allies in hopes of eventually killing his own father, brother, and anyone else who stands in his way. Initially he hopes to right the evils perpetrated by his kingdom, but as he grows in power, he will also struggle to maintain his own humanity. Will he be the hero to save them all or the monster that consumes them? Only time will tell.

Lone: The Wanderer

★ 4.51

Lone

A story about a history teacher gaming-addict with familial trauma, and a peculiar woman seemingly stuck out of time and beyond out of touch.

The two have been thrust into the weird and whimsical world of Altros, a planet with divides born of very real superhuman strength courtesy of an odd ranking system, and, naturally, species differences.

Not exactly the best of news for our resident Scottish history teacher whose ears have changed into fox ones alongside his nine new fluffy tails.

First though, Darren, or Lone, or whatever else the weird system claims he's called, has to figure out how to live with his new companion Sofia, for seemingly forever while also just barely managing to survive being stranded on a monster-infested island with a self-proclaimed former-immortal who can see despite being blind, can freely teleport, and who also, of course, seems prone to experiencing bouts of extreme depression.

Not an ideal situation when he himself hasn't been in a great headspace for over a decade now. But hey, at least there's an incredibly expansive litRPG system to keep the both of them entertained, right? That'll fight off the fear of death, surely.

[Goal of 1 chapter per week, the only exceptions being announced breaks or emergencies.]

The Eternal Assassin

★ 4.52

Wizardly Dude

First they ran from death. Now they run from him.

Summoned to another world by an ancient lich, Asher is surprised to find there is one type of dead body his training as a mortician’s apprentice didn’t prepare him for. Not exactly a fan of being held captive by the dead any more than he enjoyed being held past closing time for them, Asher decides to use his newfound dimensional abilities to see himself out.

Only after stealing the culmination of a few centuries worth of illegal magical experimentation of course.

In a world where resurrection magic means death is more of a suggestion for the upper class than the rule, Asher eventually discovers his stolen power is capable of ensuring anything that dies by his hand, stays dead.

For some reason, a lot of very powerful people find this rather upsetting.

An ancient cabal of forgotten liches. The elite organization of noble truthseekers. Even the kingdom’s famous assassin’s guild. It seems just about anyone who deals in death wants to claim his mysterious power for themselves, and most of them will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.

Not unless Asher can get to them first.

Release Schedule: 5 chapters a week Monday-Friday, with the occasional bonus chapter.

What to Expect:

[+] Weak to Strongest (slow burn).

[+] Assassin MC with a hunger for battle.

[+] Evolving Skills and Unique Magical Combinations.

[+] Romance (not harem).

[+] Death.

Summoned by Monster Girls

★ 4.59

M.Tress

Life hit Liam Cosgrave hard, like it has for a lot of people. Forced to work a dead end job to make ends meet, he barely had energy to do anything besides work and sleep. His life was basically just day to day survival.

That is, until he was summoned to another world in a freak accident.

Sitting in his truck after a fender bender on the highway, Liam was questioning whether something was out to get him. At that moment, events conspired to toss him to another world. Upon arriving, he met a pair of interesting young women who had been trying to summon a creature to act as a party member and protector, as well as a school project. Instead they got Liam, which was more than they had bargained for, given that humans were creatures of legend and myth in their world.

He had no sooner agreed to work with these two when the same mysterious force that transported him there promptly reversed and shot him back to Earth, leaving him with a parting message that the girls would call him back soon.

And thus, Liam's life trying to balance his day job and being summoned to another world started. After all, what sort of mischief could his girls get up to that they'd need a 'legendary creature' to get them out of it?

This is a SLOW BURN harem story. There will be a harem but it isn't going to get rushed. There will be gore, fighting, realistic reactions to death and emotional conflict. Also slice of life! Since the girls demand the chance to just relax after all..

Also lots of monster-girls.
