Author is a great fan of WMW; however, the story has a totally different setting, magic system, and characters. This one is definitely not as grimdark as that. Other than that, this story is also based on a lot of other novels with similar setting of summoning players.

The story is a bit slow pace at the start, but it will pick up once the setting is established.

Nerodith

She used to be a bright child. She was just not fortunate enough to have a normal life. Ill and bed-ridden, she slowly lost affect and cut herself off from outer reality, as her only joy was to construct a complex fantasy world. And eventually, she met her demise.

Nevertheless, her story did not end here. Who is to say that Death is our last path? For her, it was just the beginning. She had been given a second chance. Reborn as a Goddess in the very own world that she created, it was now only up to her to write her own story.

‘This time, let’s try to live normally.’

Bald-san

A Filipino man died in an illness during the latest pandemic and found himself transmigrated in a world of magic, in which he received a dinging sound in his ear.

[You have transmigrated in the body of: Nameless: abandoned newborn human

Abandoned what?

[God of Undead: ??? Have bestowed you his blessing by giving you the name [ Sophia Demiurge] ]

I'm a girl?

[You are now an official mortal child of a god.]

[Multiple Blessings have been bestowed upon you]

[Unique Skill: Guide Acquired

Unique Skill: Necromancy Acquired

Unique Skill: Hastened Human Evolution Acquired]

Hey, how about someone explain the situation to me?

(Not an Overlord Fanfiction)
(Reviews will be greatly appreciated)

Note: I think I'm obligated to warn you that until chapter 69, the direction of this story is not yet decided, so all the things before that are just random bullshit that I wrote in my spare time and a lot, I mean, A LOT of mistakes are in there that are sloppily corrected later on.

So, yeah, read it at your own risk, I guess.

Luna was a just regular girl, working as a librarian at the capital of the kingdom, until one day, a prophecy called her the 'queen of darkness' and said that she was going to take over the world with power and fear.

Even though she's a gentle girl who always has the best of intentions, everyone is deathly afraid of her, and fate seems to be determined to place her in the role of the villain.

Will she be able to clear this misunderstanding? Or will the world fall into her reign of unintentional terror?

Royal Princess of Blood

Tearing_Sanctuary

I died with a dagger stuck in my heart. I had no choice but to face and accept my death. But when I woke up, I was in a different body.

They called me "Princess." Sure, cool.

Now, in this new life, I have become a different person. I am a pure and innocent princess, a beautiful and adorable maiden who must be protected at all costs. A fragile princess. Delicate. Precious.

That’s who I am… well, not exactly… but I do act that way.

I thought I would get to live a nice, casual, and peaceful new life as a beloved princess, but it turns out there are threats lurking around me that I have to deal with. How annoying.

Lire

"There is no Good and Evil. Only Power."

At the tender age of ten, Kagami Ken was thrust into a life of excruciating pain, burdened by a unique illness that haunted him relentlessly.

Years later, a severe episode renders him comatose for six whole months!

Good news, he wakes up. Bad news? An unshakable intuition foretells that his days were numbered.

Driven by an irrepressible longing to seize the moments he's always been denied, he sets about doing things that he'd always wanted to do, but never could. In a twist of fate, a surge of altruism compels him to make an astonishingly generous donation to an unsuspecting charity organization.

Little does he know that this act of kindness will capture the attention of a God-like being!

With aid from fate and his powerful acquaintance, he now finds himself reborn as Reivan Aizenwald — the half-human, half-warbeast baby of the Aizen Kingdom's royal family!

On his second lease at life, how will he choose to live? What goals will he aspire to achieve? What chaos will he bring to this new world!?

Join me on this captivating journey and discover the untold tale that awaits within these pages!

(Well, it's a web novel, so it's not printed on pages... but you get the idea!)

====================================
Synopsis #2:
Tired of cookie-cutter isekai protags whom you care nothing about?

Well, have I got news for you!

[Glimpse of Eternity] is a character-driven [Reincarnation Isekai] story where I — the author — aim to have YOU care about the main character!

Feel happy when good things happen to him! Become saddened by the tragedies that afflict him...

Laugh along with him as he laughs and cry when he cries!

What are you waiting for? Give it a shot!

====================================
Disclaimers and Miscellaneous Information:

[This story is quite a slow burner, especially since 200+ pages are dedicated to his life before getting reincarnated. It's like that thing One Piece did. Y'know, 25 years of filler? Goddamn. Except here, it's just 200+ pages.]

[Chapter Length: 2000 (It can only be MORE, never less. Except for bonus/extra or interlude Chapters)]

[Chapter Release: Sunday, 11:46 pm(GMT+8). Depending on certain factors, I may post more.]

[I have sworn to the heavens that I will write this story to completion. Unless my story ends before I can finish this one, I will continue.]

[If you absolutely cannot stand stories too similar to anime/light novels, then please don't waste your time and find something else. The story's not actually styled as a light novel, but it shares some themes. Hell, the MC is Japanese. The signs are already there, so don't ignore them.]
====================================
Hello! I'm Lire, and this is my first fiction! (Started on May 9, 2022!)

Correction suggestions are appreciated. Same with general grammar corrections. English isn't my first language, so it would help me improve.

I'll try my best to make as few mistakes as possible though!

Constructive criticism is also very welcome.

Anything to make my first brainchild, the best it can possibly be!

So, I’m the Hidden Heroine now?

★ 4.2

ChangingEX

Thrust into the body of the game’s most mysterious heroine, I find myself in a world of magic—a world where one sun radiates hope while another threatens to consume its radiance.

Surrounded by countless eccentric heroines, and with the game’s protagonist adrift, unfathomable horrors lurk at the edges of reality.

Inhabiting the role of a character no one truly knows, in the game’s most difficult setting where world-ending events are already in motion...

But as fate would have it, this mysterious heroine might just be the key to saving it all.

The Hidden Final Heroine.

**************************************

What to Expect:
This story takes strong inspiration from Korean academy WebNovels, but centered more on character development than on action or system aspects.
The gender-bender aspect is heavily inspired by Korean TS WebNovels.
- Slow-paced opening (first 4 chapters) before the story picks up
- Gender-bent Transmigrator MC × Regressor ML (Slow-Burn)
- Side Romantic Subplots (Yuri, Straight, Subplot)
- OP abilities, characters, and villains
- Academy setting, but the story expands beyond the academy
- Chapters are at least 1,500 words
Note: English isn’t my first language, so there may be some awkward phrasing.
