The Emperor was once a Taoist who had renounced worldly desire. Then he met Xie Hualang. Suddenly, every scripture he had memorized became useless. She smiled at him once— and the man who spent half his life cultivating self-restraint began losing control little by little. He says he is proper. She says he is pretending. Everyone in the empire fears the cold and untouchable Emperor. Only Xie Hualang knows how easily he melts when she calls him “Your Majesty” with that mischievous smile. - older emperor × teasing noble lady - he falls first and harder - no misunderstandings dragged for hundreds of chapters - sweet couple fights & domestic romance - hidden obsession beneath calm restraint

This was supposed to be a cliché story of a man who’s average in everything, aspiring to help his poor family but got into an accident and brought into another world of fantasy where he met a goddess who gave him cheats to “survive” and every beautiful girl he met falls inlove with him so he was forced to start his own harem while doing adventures around the world. Finally bringing peace and ruling over it in the end. But No, everything went to sh*t! He just graduated, got a job and one night, woke up in a world he knows nothing about, no accident, no goddess/god meeting him, no cheats, he just slept and there he was, with nothing but the clothes his wearing in his room when he went to sleep! “Whatever! I’ve always dreamt of being the protagonist in one those stories. Maybe this is it. The Goddess may just have not noticed me.. no problem, I could wait for my cheats to arrive” This is the story of a guy who naively believe he is the protagonist. Note from Author: This is a pet project of mine and I'm still new to this. So your support including you critique whether it's positive or negative(hope my weak fragile heart can take this) would be greatly appreciated. And best of all, I hope you'll enjoy my work.

While Adrian was away negotiating an arms deal with the Russians, Veronica tampered with my haute couture gown—she knew I had prepared it for the family's charity gala, where I had to be flawless. On the red carpet, in front of a sea of cameras and the city's elite, the seams of my gown tore apart in a moment of utter humiliation. But Veronica didn't care. She pulled me into a lounge and sneered, "You're the Falcone Principessa, aren't you? So pampered. Why don't you just be a good little trophy wife and stay in your lane? Leave the real work—the blood and bullets—to me and Adrian." I lost my temper and slapped her hard across the face. The next second, Adrian appeared, pulling Veronica into his arms and shielding her. He glared at me, his voice laced with reproach. "You're the Donna. Is this how you act? She's defenseless, and you attack her? Veronica didn't mean any harm. Why must you make everything so difficult?" Veronica pressed herself against him, her eyes wide and shimmering with tears. "Donna, I know I'm clumsy. You aren't really going to send me away over something so small, are you?" That night, he didn't return to our penthouse on Central Park West. I sat on the cold silk sheets until dawn, a hollow ache where my heart used to be. As I was packing away his shirts, I saw the tattoo on his back shoulder. The family falcon, once a symbol of our wedding vows, now had its wings subtly twisted into the letter "V." The betrayal was etched into his very skin. Numb with heartbreak, I picked up the encrypted phone and called my father, the Don of the Falcone family.

Dropped this!

Self-insert reincarnation as Rimuru Tempest. Same starting point, but different developments. My plan for the progression takes a complete opposite direction, which might make him weaker than the original, so there's that.

Here, wherever I am, intangible, undefined, conscious thought does not follow a set path with which to follow. Ripples of reflections spread outward, tapering off into nothingness. Beginning and ending has no meaning here, it either is, or it isn't.

This is a story about a OLD man getting reincarnated in a (slightly less) futuristic world with the knowledge of his old life. Most of this novel will take place in a game called "Realm's End". Realm's End is a vrmmo with 100's of classes and a nearly infinite number of builds. Read as our 'wise' protagonist plays through this anomaly of a game. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT(ish) I do not own the cover art. Also i got a lot of inspiration for the mechanics in the game from overlord's 'Yddrisl' (i think that how you spell it) from the anime/light novel 'Overlord'. There will be little to no romance.

When she opened her eyes, she had inexplicably returned to twenty years ago, the first day of the apocalypse escape. "Classmate, you're a Superpower User, right? How about considering joining our special operations squad?" Looking at the man opposite her with sparkling, charming eyes, Xie Ning heartlessly refused: "Thanks, I have a team." "Ah, what team do you have?" "No team." "Right, you're beautiful, so whatever you say is right. How about this, you join our squad, and I will accompany you through wind and rain, and go through fire and water with you to clear dungeons and kill monsters." "Every single day, year after year?" "Mhm! I will work hard to make money, and only for you. How does that sound?" Xie Ning: ... After being reborn, her small Space has turned into a large, mobile villa, and she originally just wanted to live her own quiet little life in peace. Never did she expect to attract such a clingy, devilishly charming man. Question: How does one heartlessly and coldly reject a charmer? Waiting online for an answer, it's quite urgent...
