Simply speaking, a scaredy-cat shou transmigrated and had to think of a way to survive. He had a golden finger called Medicine Refining System, but unfortunately, he didn’t have the ingredients needed to refine medicine and level up.
A great young master to an empire’s preeminent clan had a super high IQ, but his potential for cultivation was low. Unfortunately, pill refiners were too hard to develop, and weren’t restricted to his personal service. But he could acquire plenty of ingredients.
Two people, one was sick and one had medicine. Therefore, the one who was sick kept the one who had medicine, and everyone was happy.

When I opened my eyes, I was inside a novel.[The Birth of a Hero].[The Birth of a Hero] was a novel focused on the adventures of the main character, Choi Han, a high school boy who was transported to a different dimension from Earth, along with the birth of the numerous heroes of the continent.
I became a part of that novel as the trash of the Count’s family, the family that oversaw the territory where the first village that Choi Han visits is located.
The problem is that Choi Han becomes twisted after that village, and everyone in it, are destroyed by assassins.
The bigger problem is the fact that this stupid trash who I’ve become doesn’t know about what happened in the village and messes with Choi Han, only to get beaten to a pulp.
“…This is going to be a problem.”
I feel like something serious has happened to me.
But it was worth trying to make this my new life.

Lu Yu, a foodie, transmigrated to a parallel world where all living beings on Earth had awakened to superpowers.
Fearsome Beasts rampaged everywhere and the lives of mankind were threatened.
When they came of age, youths would awaken their talents at the various martial arts dojos. They would then use their talents to protect their homeland.
Lu Yu awakened the power of Gluttony, an SSS-class talent.
His strength would increase every time he consumed the flesh of Fearsome Beasts. His spiritual soul would grow stronger every time he consumed their cores.
In other words, he was what he ate and he grew stronger by eating.
Apparently, the effect of Gluttony would even intensify when he consumed more high-end raw ingredients and better cooking methods.
As such, he embarked on the journey of becoming stronger through eating.
[Ding! Detected that host has consumed the flesh of a B-class king cobra. Acquired: Attribute of Poison Immunity.]
[Ding! Detected that host has consumed the heart of an A-class firebird. Obtained: Skill of Erupting Lava.]
[Ding! Detected that host has consumed the nerves of an SSS-class white dragon. Acquired: Talent of Endless Rebirth.]
While the others wailed, “The monsters are here! Run!”,
the monsters howled, “Lu Yu is here! Run!”
Lu Yu thought, “Standing at the top of the food chain feels nice!”

With the appearance of the ferocious beasts and hideous monsters, humanity was on the verge of extinction.
As humanity lost its hope, a few otherworldly beings referred to themselves as ‘Gods’ appeared and helped humans in creating new cities from the rumbles.
Before leaving the world, they left a special gift that could help the humans awaken their talents hidden deeply in their bodies as there were still monsters and beasts outside these newly created cities.
With the help of their newly awakened talents, the humans started fighting the monsters and beasts on their own.
That’s the beginning of a new chapter in human history as humans started becoming heroes.
In such a world, a 12-year-old kid was framed for theft and the murder of his adoptive parents by some powerful heroes.
Furthermore, they even planned to kill him and make his body disappear to avoid future trouble.
However, after 10 years, he returned to the city with a different name to take revenge against those so-called powerful heroes while trying to find out the reason behind the death of his adoptive parents.
“I don’t know exactly who you are and why you did that, but I will find out even if I have to kill all the powerful heroes in the city.”
Standing in front of the gates of the Phirie city, Leo muttered to himself with a cold look on his face.

Humanity was living peacefully on Earth for millions and millions of years until the day unknown monsters from beyond space invaded them.
When humans were about to disappear, some people with abilities came out to the light and shared their knowledge and powers with the world, and together, they managed to push back the invaders during a terrible war that had lasted for years.
This war had created many orphans, and among them, Kye had lost everything, even his parents. And the only thing he received from their death was a pale-looking necklace.
However, once the necklace finally activated, a system was given to him, and his life changed completely.
The system gave him quests to do, and Kye complied. He was getting stronger every time he achieved them, until the day it gave him a weird quest.

The Swordman Loves Not Onion
Qin Huai crossed into the mysterious fantasy world where demons were rampant and heroes were rising. He had no background or cultivation qualifications until the day he became a medicine store apprentice and started to cultivate with his fellow apprentices.
He found that the experience orbs actually fell out of his master and brothers.
He learned to grind medicine with his brothers.
“Ding! ‘Medicine Art’ Experience+3!”
His Master and brothers practiced martial arts.
“Ding! You picked up an ‘Essence of Qi Cultivation (White)’, ‘Qi Cultivation’ experience +3!”
He killed the bandits in the mountains and picked up their cultivation.
“Ding! ‘Astringent Breath Technique’ experience +13!”
His master said that the technique was not good at attacking, had a cultivation limit, and could only prolong life.
But when Qin Huai picked up the experience until the Astringent Breath Technique was 50 times stronger, his body took a tremendous change. A gentle push of his hand was like a wave. He could now both attack and defend.
People said that when two kinds of cultivation methods clashed, continuing to cultivate would lead to the death of the cultivator.
However, when Qin Huai picked up experience and directly skipped the cultivation process, he found there were no side effects at all!
When Qin Huai practiced more and more cultivation methods, he suddenly found that those methods interacted with each other in his body and became stronger skills.
…
Qin Huai, who could pick up experience, began to wander among the major powers.
He saw flesh growing from white bones and the dead revived.
He saw demons cooking 10,000 people and exuding extremely evil energy.
He saw the Buddha statue chanting in the temple. Sanskrit sounded like a mantra.
Qin Huai silently picked up experience in order to settle down in the chaotic world.

Zev prowled towards her, all shining, brutal beauty, his chin low and those incredible, piercing eyes fixed on her. He didn’t stop until they were toe-to-toe and he blocked her view of every other male in the circle.
His eyes dipped to her mouth as he leaned in, his whisper playing on her skin.
“You. Are. Mine.”
His deep voice twanged in her belly as the howls of the wolf pack rose from behind him to echo across the mountains of Thana, while the other Chimera protested his claim.
Fighting the urge to stroke his broad, bare chest with her shaking hands, Sasha forced herself to tilt her head and raise an eyebrow. “So bold for a pup who just found his fangs.”
The other males roared with laughter.
Ignoring their taunts, Zev’s eyes sparked and he leaned even closer, the scruff on his jaw tickling her cheek as he smiled. “So bold for a human who already knows the pleasure of gasping my name.”
She shivered when his teeth grazed her ear.

Just days after Sasha gave herself to her childhood love, he disappeared. Five years later, on a dark city street, Zev came back—with danger on his tail.
Zev is Chimera: Half-human, half-wolf. Made in a secure research lab, his existence is a secret. But when the powerful men who created him try to kill the only woman who ever made his heart sing, Zev snaps their leash and steals her away to the brutal, hidden world of the Chimera clans.
Torn between the magnetic draw of her first love and the painful betrayal of his disappearance, Sasha tries to keep Zev at arms-length. But when they reach this mysterious world, Zev discovers that in his absence the humans took control and stole almost all the females. The Chimera are dying—and Zev isn’t Alpha anymore.
Now, Zev must fight his own people to win the right to mate his only love. Can he prove to her that his long-ago promise to protect her heart, as well as her body, was true? Or will the humans cross worlds to hunt the wolf and tear the lovers apart forever?

In a world of shallow-minded, materialistic mortals, what would one from humble beginnings – whose face had been stomped on, spat on, oppressed for the longest while by the arrogant, pampered upper echelons of society – do, when a mysterious application pops up on a brand new phone that was meant to be the birthday gift of an ungrateful girlfriend? What if the application takes the form of a chatroom where its occupants, bearing the names of mythical, fictional beings, start giving out ‘Red Packets’, all the while spouting nonsense?

What if I told you, right now, everything you know about what happens after death is a lie?
What if I told you that there is no afterlife after death, just an endless cycle of reincarnation after wiping your memory?

Would you take it...or would you continue with the mundane cycle that has gone on since the beginning of time?
This is a story about two brothers, one is a responsible police officer, the other a heartless weeb, who died during WW3 and are offered the opportunity to reincarnate into another world as brothers once more.

I'm the villain !?
In fact, I never considered myself to be a hero, I always believed that the hatred people had towards me was somehow my fault, and that I was honestly not as kind or as nice as the protagonist.
But at the same time, I didn't consider myself a villain but one day I woke up and realized that actually everyone else does, including the people that I was willing to sacrifice my life to protect.
And if that was not enough on that same day, I woke up with the biggest burden a human can bear, the burden of saving fu*** humanity. Indeed, as a villain, it is not my duty to save the world, but to whom would I leave this duty? Should I leave it to the protagonist who spends all his time luring beauty to build his fuc** harem? The protagonist who got the most powerful cheat code but still failed to do his duty in the end, the same hero who wants to protect our enemies only because they are living in peace for the time being.
Ahhh! Even the thought of that hypocrite who convinces himself that he wants to control everything just to protect the innocents makes my blood boil.
Sigh, ok I'll do it I'll save this chaotic world, but I'll do it my way and anyone who gets in my path will discover why the world itself considers me a villain.

Chu Qing transmigrates to a world where women hold all the power. In this matriarchal society, men are judged solely on their looks, while women are expected to provide for their families. Men are only considered eligible for marriage if they have good virtues, while women must possess a house and a car to be considered desirable. Even worse, women who are financially supported by men are accused of being freeloaders, and some women are known to prey on younger men.
As the “school belle,” Chu Qing is frustrated by these rigid social norms. He believes that a man’s true worth comes from inner strength and character, not just physical appearance. With his ability to cultivate immortality, he sets out to prove that men can be powerful and valuable in their own right, challenging the status quo in this matriarchal society!

...that’s a maybe then.
Author’s note: I love the idea of kingdom-building novels and think the genre has a lot to offer, but I don’t think many authors do them very well. Here is my attempt. The novel has a strong focus on politics and kingdom building, with occasional action and a bit of humor. Have fun.
