Mia Luna Tearmoon, Princess of the Tearmoon Empire, muttered to herself as she stood shackled on the execution platform.

The faces of the spectators surrounding her were, without exception, filled with indignation.

Before long, Mia was executed at the hands of the revolutionists, who were fed up with the heavy taxation.

But the next moment, she unexpectedly found herself lying on her bed.

It was eight years ago, when she was just a mere kid.

For a while, Mia even wondered if she was hallucinating. However, what appeared on her bedside table was a bloodstained diary that she had written herself.

That day, Mia's screams could be heard echoing throughout the palace.

Mia was not a vicious person by nature. She was simply incapable of understanding the pain and hunger of others, and by the time she discovered it, it was already too late to do anything.

After she regressed back to her childhood, Mia struggled hard to trace back the events of the past with the help of her blood-stained diary and memories.

Was it to save the future of a declining empire?

Was it to save the soldiers who died in the civil war?

Was it to save the people from famine?

No, she had only one goal.

To avert her fate of facing the guillotine (execution)! <<less

In the era of popular esports, a globally popular game called "Destiny" was born.... more>>

This is a close-quarters holographic reality game with a focus on cold weapons such as swords, spears, guns, bows, and other melee weapons.

The charm of close combat, the interplay of flashing blades and shadows, the brutal battle where only one survives out of a hundred, captivate players and make the major world esports tournaments thrive.

Chen Xingran, a weapon master from an ancient martial arts family, wakes up from slumber and finds himself in a strange world, becoming an ordinary student at the Capital Esports Academy, endlessly worrying about how to reach Silver rank.

As he looks at the familiar Tang Sword, broadsword, silver spear, dagger, long whip, and more in the game... Chen Xingran falls into contemplation.

"I'm familiar with this."

Thus, in "Destiny," a formidable specialist in weapons emerges.

His swordsmanship is sharp and elusive, his heavy sword has no edge, his gun moves like a dragon, and his dagger is as agile as a serpent... No matter how challenging the weapon is, it becomes a magnificent and dangerous performance in his hands.

"A Tang Sword is not used like this."

"Protecting teammates? Not necessary."

"Isn't it enough to eliminate all the enemies?"

...

In the world of "Destiny," a legend begins to spread about a fearsome demon king.

It is said that every professional player who faces him in combat meets a tragic end...

However, the good news is that this demon king seems incapable of using ranged weapons?

His archery skills are astonishing. Even with a rapid-firing crossbow, he can't hit a single shot, earning him the title of the "Master of Human Outline Drawing."

Yang Yunchen, the former champion of the FPS World Championship and hailed as the number one marksman, says this while watching the young man who effortlessly takes on three opponents with a Tang Sword.

"Why need ranged weapons when I'm here?"

The blushing young man, finished with the fight and sharpening his sword, chases after him and slashes three blocks.

PS:

1. This is a fictional holographic close-quarters battle royale game with many imaginative elements. You don't need to have played the game to enjoy the story.

2. Game skills and settings are inspired by games like "Eternal Punishment," "Apex Legends," "Overwatch," and others.

3. The weapon master is invincible in close combat but terrible at using guns, while the archer never misses a shot. They pretend to be weak and rely on their spouse, the cunning world champion, to save them.

4. This story doesn't follow the typical trope of the protagonist being overwhelmingly strong. There may be initial setbacks, but later on, the characters reach their full potential and dominate the game, creating various highlights. Please avoid making assumptions about the author and enjoy the story and comments harmoniously. Thank you.

TN:

Title: The phrase "磨刀不误砍菜弓[电竞]" in Chinese is an idiomatic expression commonly used in the context of eSports. It translates to "Sharpening the knife doesn't delay the cutting of vegetables with the bow [eSports]."

This phrase is often used to emphasize the importance of preparation and practice in esports. It means that even though it is essential to hone your skills and improve your strategies, it should not hinder you from taking immediate action and engaging in competitive gaming. Just like sharpening a knife is necessary for efficient cutting, training and preparation are crucial in esports, but they should not become an excuse for procrastination or hesitation. It highlights the balance between preparation and execution in the world of competitive gaming. <<less

As soon as he opened his eyes, the amnesiac An Wujiu saw a person at his side killed. While in confusion, a floating green typeface appeared before him.

Variable Name: An Wujiu

Attributes: Male, 20 years old

Game Rounds: 5

Win Rate: 100/100

Danger Rank: SSS

No wonder they were afraid.

The first time he saw An Wujiu, Shen Ti felt curious. The kindness and fragility in those eyes were not fake, so how could he survive in the Altar? It was until he saw the man had a sudden personality change. He recklessly gambled regardless of the cost, casually estranged people, grew further excited on the verge of death, and even calculated against himself to win. Only then did Shen Ti realize that it was his own cognitive bias.

Fortunately, he wasn’t a normal person either. <<less

Suddenly, I found myself ensnared in this dangerous survival game, a grotesque merry-go-round where every turn carried the stench of death. Yet, I was not without any defenses. I possessed an unusual power: the power to regress 100 times, a chance to rewrite my fate.

I stand on the precipice of my final regression, and I swear, 'This time, I will conquer it. I will emerge victorious.'

I'm no longer the insignificant shuttle that I once was. Today, I shed my former self, the one who had reached the pinnacle of power. Today, I am reborn for the last time as Black Scythe, a rookie player, a novice that once again will be become the Grim Reaper! <<less

[I am a guide for travelers who have transmigrated into the novel.]
I possessed the body of Tiarozety Isol, a supporting character in 『The Opponent of the Dragon.』

The book will send me back to my world as soon as I complete the ending of the male lead, Lexion.

The problem is, I’ve never read this book before.

Besides…

[If the development of the story deviates from the original, the traveler gets a penalty right away.]
“Penalty?”

[Yes. The penalty is that the novel proceeds in the direction the traveler doesn’t want the most.]

I was able to play the role of Tiarozety firmly. But then, I suddenly fell in love with the male lead, Lexion Sparrow.

“I’ll miss you.”

I was able to complete the ending by dying for him.

However- There was a problem with the ending. Thus, I returned to the beginning of the novel again. Somehow, I was sent back again inside the novel on my way home.

And-

“Titi, choose me. Not this damn fate.”

“………”

“Choose me, even if the path is rough. Because I’m ready for anything.”

And that’s how… Lexion, the male lead, began to cling onto me. <<less

“Are you okay? You’re covered in cold sweat.”

The young Cha Woowon, who didn’t know Lee Danwoo, spoke. Lee Danwoo nodded weakly.

“You’re crying.”

‘I know.’

He had plenty of regrets.

The most regrettable thing was before it all began,

Lee Danwoo returned.

“A monster is about to trample thirty people in front of us. If you intervene, you’ll die, but they can survive. What will you do?”

Without hesitation, Cha Woowon answered Lee Danwoo’s question.

“Stopping it seems like the right judgment.”

‘This guy is a good bastard…’

More urgent than strategy or anything else, there was a pressing issue.

Why did Cha Woowon die in the [Last Dungeon]?

Without a doubt, it was his good personality that was the problem.

This time, Lee Danwoo would save him.

By tearing apart his righteous human nature. <<less

It was only when I was killed by Hyeolma whom I called Master, that I found out about it, and waking up again as a 13-year-old, I decided to go back to Namgoong.

I have no intention of wanting to be recognized as a family.

It’s just, I was just trying to prevent Namgoong from being destroyed in vain like before, but…

“These are the jewelry, silk, gold bars, and elixir that the Lord has given for the Young Miss.”

“Now, Little Kid. It’s a gift from me to celebrate your return.”

As soon as I was recognized as the granddaughter that Namgoong had lost, I got delicious food, precious clothes, gold and silver treasures, and even high-quality swords!

I have a grandfather and father who would cry and laugh for me.

Just what in the world is this tingling sensation in my chest that I feel every time they do that?

To protect the laughter of those whom I had killed with my own hands,

To preserve this tingling and warm sensation for a long time,

I am trying to change the blood-red future differently from my previous life, but…

A shadow clouded Namgoong Mucheon’s face.

‘Is this child really raised as an assassin?’

A deep mu*derous energy and the sword method of attributes she could do, which are essential for an assassin, were bottling up her life intact.

‘That damn bastard.’

Anger rose from Namgoong Mucheon’s inner thoughts.

Since he was about to gush out coarse swear words in front of his granddaughter, he repeated the same remark unpleasantly only to himself.

‘How dare he try to raise my granddaughter as an assassin?’

The blue energy that covered up Namgoong Mucheon intensified. <<less

‘There’s no need to kill me, who ran away from home 7 years ago and is only doing research in the countryside!’

The moment I realized that the academy, who said that I was a genius and would treat like a family, betrayed me, and that treason was also falsely accused by someone…

Due to a mysterious power, I returned to a year ago!

“I can’t help it. Now that it’s like this, I, who is smart and strong, has no choice but to save the family.”

There were two things to do for the family.

“Will I be of help to you someday too?”

“I tried to save him because he is precious to my grandfather.”

Restoring the relationship with the family, which was a mess, and…

“Please pretend to be in a relationship with me externally.”

Holding hands with ‘that man’.

Oh, before that. Pouring a water bottle over the dean’s head during the lecture, I said,

“This is gravity.” Get revenge on those academy guys who have no morals.

Normally, this could have broken Rishe’s heart, but her mentality became strong.

Her past six lives have been busy and fulfilling, she wants to live longer this time around.

If possible, she wants to live a life of leisure and squander money…

To commence her 7th life, Rishe has set up such a diagonal goal.

However, in this life, she will be married to the Crown Prince of a militant nation, who killed her in her past life.

She had done everything to prove that she was different from her mad father, who killed their people and burned their land.

But all she achieved was the accusation of being the “devil’s daughter.”

The day before she came of age, Kalia made up her mind.

She would no longer seek cheap affection.

She wouldn’t sacrifice her soul for a fleeting love.

And if there was a next life, she wouldn’t seek love again.

As her consciousness faded and her breathing became labored, she suddenly found herself transported back five years to the past.

“I love you.”

I hesitated and backed away as Claude approached me.

But my back was against the wall, and before I knew it, he was standing right in front of me.

“Kalia.”

He peered through the small gap between his fingers that covered his face, carefully watching my reaction.

Despite his disheveled appearance, he was radiant at the moment.

He kneeled down and gently took my trembling right hand, making me feel as if this had all been a dream.

His lips touched the back of my dry hand.

“Just as you showed me the light and opened a new life for me, I want to do the same for you.”

Beneath his long, thick lashes, his eyes were filled with an unfamiliar emotion.

“You know why I live. Kalia, please let me love you.” <<less

Story 1: Bai Muxing was a once-in-a-century S-class omega with 100% compatibility with all four S-class alphas in the empire.

In his previous life, despite his achievements, he was treated like a toy by numerous alphas due to his unique glands. Nobody cared about his simple wish to lead an ordinary life. Jealousy and scheming brought him to his death in the chaotic currents of the galaxy.

In this new life, Bai Muxing chose to remove his glands and become an ordinary person. With a considerable pension, he arrived at a farming and ranching planet on the empire’s border, starting a carefree life of farming and retirement.

He also entered into an online relationship with a handsome beta netizen, fulfilling his life-long dream of “marrying an honest person.”

Apart from the minor annoyance of a husband, who clung to him like a child, and Bai Muxing’s occasional worries about his back pain, life was generally ideal.

However, everything changed when a scumbag alpha, who had once harassed him, followed him to the farming and ranching planet. To his surprise, his seemingly honest husband broke the S-class scumbag alpha’s leg barehanded. In the heat of anger, his husband revealed his true form, that of the king of an alien race whom Bai Muxing had once fought on the battlefield.

Shu Tang woke up one day to find the world gone mad; humanity was no longer content with just male and female, creating six ABO genders instead.

Shu Tang felt she might be one of the common betas, making up 80% of the population—non-aggressive, not too sensitive, quite peace-loving, and without anything extra to her person, just an utterly ordinary beta.

Then, on her adulthood test: Supreme Alpha!

Shu Tang: ?

Shu Tang's spirit is a cat. Supported by her SSS-tier spirit, she not only interned at the federal secret sanatorium but also got matched with a fragile omega.

When visiting her delicate fiancé, she mistook 10 for 01 and entered Restricted Area No. 1.

In the Restricted Area lives "Patient No. 1".

An unbeaten legend, the grand leader of the federation, known as the pioneer of human nuclear weapons.

This leader is an omega, with a merman as his spirit—no secret there.

However, due to his monstrous combat abilities, the discussions usually aren't about whether he's omega, but whether he's human at all.

After a psychic outburst, he became a "monster."

Wherever he resided turned into the Restricted Area.

Those who trespassed met grim fates.

Shu Tang entered the Restricted Area.

Reportedly, her fiancé was too frail to fend for himself.

She saw her fiancé's terrifying, silent figure in the dark.
Shu Tang noted: He must be shy.

She saw her fiancé's fishtail in the sea, water dripping down, his complexion pale and eyes pitch black.
Shu Tang noted: Low blood sugar.

She found her fiancé's voice hoarse, never speaking, only emitting beast-like, raspy threatening sounds from his throat.
Shu Tang noted: Quiet by nature, not talkative.

Shu Tang managed to get out.

An alpha asked: Did you see any terrifying beings?

Shu Tang: "Are you talking about the blue rose?"

Other alphas: ?

Blue rose? Who?

Cat, blushing: "He's nice, just not very healthy."

Other alphas: ?

Why would she be blushing?

Later, everyone thought Cat a was the one who most relied on the grand leader.

But they didn’t know—

To him, Cat was the blue rose, his spiritual support, his lifeline, his entire conception of living.

She was the one he clung to as he withered.

And in her presence, he grew silently. <<less
