He isn’t weak. He’s damned. Cursed to feed only on the mana of the dead. Eric won a second chance at life after a system promised he could get revenge for the death of he and his best friend. He immediately accepted, but he didn't sign up to be a Kill-to-feed being after carrying out his revenge on his killers. Eric refused the order of the parasitic System to kill and consume the mana of his own people. His defiance triggered a transformation into a mindless Beast, and he awoke in a field of corpses. Something he'd done in his mindless state. Thousands of his colony brothers and sisters, brutally killed, their mana devoured. Consumed not by choice, but by a curse he couldn’t control. Now, transmigrated to a world of magic and blades, the same System whispers to him again. His hunger for mana is a ticking clock. Consuming mana however, doesn't just stop his hunger, it also makes him stronger, whether he wants to be or not. And in this strange, violent academy in a violent world, he wants nothing. He just wants to hide. So he plays his role: the hopeless, clumsy freshman, content to be the bottom of the class. He'll be weak. He'll be harmless. He’ll be anything but a threat. But the curse has other plans. Eric never wanted to grow stronger than he was. He needed a solid reason to upgrade his stats so desperately... Until that reason came to him. A mad, brutal reason to grow stronger. To survive this world, he must first conquer the monster he brought with him. And the line between controlling the beast… and becoming it… is starting to blur. Weakness is his disguise. Hunger is his power. And the academy is about to learn that the most dangerous predator isn’t the one who roar in the wilderness. It’s the one pretending to cower.

[System Notification] Congratulations! You have discovered the Trial Gate of Izanagi. Do you wish to enter and face the trial? Warning: This trial is dangerous and may result in death. [Yes] | [No] Seventeen-year-old Akira Kageyama barely had time to process the blue screen flashing before his eyes as he stared at the massive, ornate door that had inexplicably appeared in the middle of Ueno Park. Moments earlier, he had been rushing to school, his mind preoccupied with upcoming exams, but the sudden earthquake and the mysterious pillar of light shooting up into the sky had drawn him here. Around him, the park was eerily quiet, but in the distance, the world was far from peaceful. A store TV displayed a news report in its window, catching Akira’s eye as he passed by. The anchor’s voice was tense, describing the chaos gripping the planet: massive earthquakes in California, tsunamis swallowing entire coastlines, and hurricanes battering cities that had never seen a storm before. Akira’s gaze shifted back to the gate. He hesitated only briefly before pressing [Yes]. The door swung open, revealing a twisted landscape of shadow and mist. The oppressive atmosphere pressed down on him as he stepped forward, leaving the world he knew behind. The faint echo of Izanagi’s voice reverberated through his mind, a reminder of the god’s challenge and the deadly stakes. But Akira was not alone. Across the world, countless others were being drawn into similar trials—each gate linked to a different mythological figure, each trial a test of their will, strength, and cunning. The world was unraveling, and these trials were humanity’s last hope for survival—or its final undoing.

The Zygotes were aliens from the outer space, a planet known as Eranus. They originated from Earth about thirty thousand years ago. They do not die due to the vial to the sand of life which has made them to assume immortality; the Vial was given to them by a witch. They had seen the pillages and degradation that Earth had been subjected to. Their mission was to help Earth, otherwise, what happens on Earth will eventually have a devastating effect on Eranus. There were uprisings fuelled by the greedy politicians in order to topple the Zygotes. Lastly was the DNA profiling of a Zygote at Wuhan laboratory in China, which led to the creation of a dangerous animal known as Zygosaur- a specie of Pterosaur. The presence of the Zygosaurs had caused deaths in the number of several millions on Earth. The Zygosaurs were dangerous-could only be gotten rid of if they make their way back to Africa. The immortality of the Zygotes meant that someone had to reveal the code to the sand of life- Zamata, a lady Zygote fell in love with a scientist called Kiof. The code to the vial that holds the sand of life was released by Zamata to Kiof. The Zygotes were defeated, the politicians were happy. The bounty placed on the Zygotes for anyone/persons who help to defeat the Zygotes was won by the trio of Kiof, Joki and Zamata. They outplayed each other with deception to see who eliminates each other in order to have complete access to the bounty. One of trio (Kiof) got killed in the ensuing drama of trying to outdo each other. The rat race has just begun. The politicians were back to their usual life! Mr. Paski woke to discover he was in a dream!

*In a world torn between gods and insects, only the devoured shall transcend.* ----- Five months ago, Lein Thorn opened his eyes to a nightmare wearing the skin of reality. He awoke not in his own flesh, but in the body of another—a young man who shared his name but not his memories, not his world. This Earth had been reborn in blood and evolution, transformed a century ago when the universe itself expanded, tearing holes between dimensions. Monsters poured through like a plague of teeth and hunger. Space grew. Matter evolved. And humanity—fragile, desperate humanity—changed. But the change was not a gift given equally. Only seven percent of mankind underwent the true Evolution, awakening to powers that defied the laws of physics and reason. They became living weapons: fire-bringers, gravity-benders, death-dealers who could carve through steel and stone with thought alone. The rest remained ordinary, weak, trapped in flesh that could not compete with those who had transcended. At first, the Evolved became humanity’s shield. They fought the monsters. They defended the broken world. Laws were written to bind them, to make them servants of the species they had once belonged to. Then came the day they stopped pretending. After the Earth’s military forces were annihilated in a single, brutal demonstration—scattered like ash before the storm of Evolved power—the world’s true face was revealed. The mask of civilization cracked and fell away. The strong took what they wanted. The weak became resources, livestock, tools to be exploited in the slums and labor camps where the powerless toiled under the boot of those who had become something *more*. It was the oldest law of existence, stripped bare and written in suffering: the strong devour the weak. Lein Thorn has survived five months in this hell. Five months in the slums where the Evolved treat humans like animals, where death is cheaper than water, where hope is a luxury no one can afford. He has watched people broken, used, discarded. He has learned to keep his head down, to endure, to wait. Because something inside him has been *waking*. A power not of this world. A golden finger from beyond, initializing in the dark corners of his transplanted soul. And now, finally, after endless months of silence, it has awakened. **The Soul Reaver System.** With each Evolved he kills, Lein can harvest their soul—the very essence of their power. From these stolen souls, he can forge new spells, claim existing abilities, destroy magical constructs, or rewrite the laws of power itself within his tier. But the price escalates exponentially: one kill yields one soul. The next requires two kills. Then four. Then eight. The hunger grows without limit, demanding an ever-increasing toll of blood. This is not a story of heroes. This is the chronicle of a man who will climb a mountain of corpses to reach the summit. A man who will traverse countless worlds, crush those who stand in his path, and reshape reality itself through stolen power. From the slums to the thrones of the Evolved, from Earth to dimensions beyond imagining, Lein Thorn will carve his name into the fabric of existence. The strong devour the weak. But what happens when the weakest becomes the most ravenous predator of all? The Evolution Wars have begun. And Lein Thorn is *hungry*. -----

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.

[Irresistible Female Lead + Beast World + 1vN + Male Rivalry Shuraba + A Record of Time Management Fails] The moment she opened her eyes, Ruan Fu transmigrated into a Beast World novel as the infertile, vicious female side character. Before her was one of the female lead's Beast Husbands, who was currently in heat. Recalling her original ending of being humiliated and dying a tragic death, Ruan Fu decisively decided to take a piece of the pie from the female lead. Thus, not only did she snatch away her men, but she also played innocent, making the top-tier males of the Beast World willingly become her protectors. However, Ruan Fu, who firmly believed in having multiple options and paths, never expected that by just crooking her finger, they would all swarm towards her. Seeing this, Ruan Fu decided that of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, fleeing was the best option, leaving them behind in disarray on the battlefield of male rivalry. ——Disaster Skit—— On the day of Ruan Fu's wedding to the cold and gloomy snake-man, a large group of Beastmen from other clans suddenly appeared in Snake Valley. The aloof and abstinent Dragon Clan Clan Leader blocked the front of the hall, "Fufu, let's go to that hot spring you said you wanted to soak in last night." The domineering Tiger Clan leader, bursting with raw tension, tightly gripped her hand, "A fu, I will not allow you to marry him." The aloof and tsundere cat-eared youth knelt before her: "Fufu, don't you want to touch my cat ears again?" The rational and cunning Fox Clan Fate held up her hair ribbon, "A fu, you left this at my place." The gentle, husband-like Rabbit Clan Shaman watched her tenderly: "A fu, I missed you." ... In response, the one and only legal Beast Husband declared, "What does my wedding have to do with any of you? Get the hell out." But unexpectedly, the younger brother he had always doted on cut in front of him, "Brother, actually, the one who isn't loved is the real third wheel..."
