A list of novels where the protagonist engages in s*xual activities. Why doesn't novelupdates have a s*xual interc**rse tag, but has random sh*t like outdoor s*x tag? I don't know, but this is why I am making this list. Warning not all novels are yet translated to the seggs part.... more>>

Pt1 is here https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/44108/

If you know of any novel not in pt1 and here say it and I will add it. Particularly lacking knowledge on KR and CN novels. <<less

Sequence is CN- JP- KR- Fluffy- (Comedy)- Exceptions- To-reads. Not ranked by number. 
My descriptions varies greatly from a gist, polished review, impressions, or explains key points.        ... more>>

[Flexible Preferences] 
A. Protags are somehow mostly male but I read both!- interesting, has compelling qualities, flawed with development
B. Entertaining, Distinct, & Creative
C. Steady premise, no TERRIBLE plot hole 
D. Romance: good execution, pacing, build-up, & evokes emotion; no bullsh!t drama & brain-dead denseness
E. Vital, relevant, fleshed-out characters
F. Comedic & Fun
G. Danger, Wars, Battles, Strategy, Tactics, Trials, Fights, Thriller, Suspense
H. Lore, Culture, Kingdom, Worldbuilding 
I. Political Intrigue, Schemes, Mind Games, Manipulation, Mystery
J.  Pure tragedies rarely - it hurts!
K. No BL/GL(yet?)
L. Can be R-18 
M. Polygamous-like IF great story | even if you're averse consider my recs. ;)

[Criteria]
1. These are (mostly) 4/5 stars in story, translation and enjoyment according to my flawed evaluation that is mainly 3/10 objective, 7/10 subjective.
2. I have perused the novels or adaptation before sharing my thoughts.
3. Writing must be consistent, coherent and engaging and the ending must at least not be sh!t. Clichés to a point are fine however it needs to be purposeful & executed well. 
4. I will keep adding books that are promising, satisfying, translated.  <<less

How would you bring technology into a fantasy world? Make sense of the magics? Feed people and get rid of the corrupt nobles? This is specifically on developing a city or territory, not:
- Developing a dungeon/core (see my other list: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/10742/)... more>>

First, a few worthy mentions that aren't on NU:
1. Castle Kingside (rewrite) - a lot of inspiration from Release that Witch, imo improved! Warning: it's slow. Kingdom only begins around c60ish.
2. The iron teeth - although territory development comes late in the story, it's well done and exotic, being based on a goblin kingdom
3. 1632 (published book) - an American village goes back to the 30 years war. It's much less fantastical, but has a lot of similar elements to other kingdom building novels.
4. The Eagle's Flight - highly intricate fantasy webnovel
5. Defiance of the fall
6. Randidly Ghosthound - neither Randidly nor Defiance of the Fall focus on kingdom building, but they both have elements related to setting up a post-apocalypse system city - complete the quest to get the village crystal/coin!
7. The Expansion (Legend of the Arch Magus) - [have not yet read] - recommendation from Hitexh in the comments
8. Enlightened Empire - weaker than the others <<less

I dislike ret*rds!!!!! Too much emotional mc is also a big no~~~~~~... more>>

Extremely kind mc is also meh... 

Lets be realistic everything is meh in front of benefit oriented mc.... But they are hard to find......

Ranking after first 3 is useless.  <<less

S tier - absolute masterpiece ... more>>

A tier - excellent

B tier - really good

All of the novels have enough chapters, have something special and are my favourites, therefore there are no bad novels here.

Of course this is purely my opinion. <<less

I will not rate, I read novel randomly. I’ll just put how far the chapter I read.  <<less

Part 2 of my endless search for halfway decent KR novels. This list is filled with random novels that won't finish translating until my future mortgage is paid off. <<less

Need that starting from humble beginnings progressing to vast empires and kingdoms fix? Or a weak MC that grows with a small territory into becoming... more>> a broken MC with a large kingdom. Novels suggested are based around territory-building and character-growth.  (Some may contain romance/harem tags) <<less

This list includes web novels focused on making money (or bartering in the case of more primitive settings) using modern knowledge. Some of them are small-scale business owners, whereas others create kingdoms and focus on macro-economics. 
Some are gxb, others are BL, but barely any harems!! The harems included are basically inoffensive. I usually stay away from game elements like systems or cheats, but they're kind of inevitable in the genre. ... more>>

All of them are completed on mtl!

Characters who have self-serving personalities or tendencies, and may or may not show it in interactions, actions, emotions, intent, and thoughts. Or just that the character has a willingness to do things that aren't compatible with our modern and diverse views regarding morals, ethics, principles, and ideals of good. Of course these books have different tones and also handling of this subject.... more>>

The list was created with much subjectivity, as I won't put protagonists whose good qualities overshadows all their impactful grey actions and evil actions, which is important to me regardless of whether they are truly good or evil. -> Different examples of who I won't include are Song Shuhang (kindness), Klein Moretti (principles and heroic actions), Kim Dokja (altruism), and Chen Ge (goodwill and generosity).

Work in progress. Of course I have read these, I will simply state if I did not. Most are good novels but I will add some non-favorites, which is purely my opinion because I have a personal standard of quality.

UNRANKED

Let me not bother about my face and recommend my list for top quality novels I've enjoyed:  https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/16488/ <<less

Another story is: "Tyranny of Steel" The story progress something like Release That Witch. MC makes Austria become a power house by introducing gun technology... more>> in an era of cold weapon. Some reader says its unacceptable since MC does not have super power like the witches in Release That Witch but the author keep mentioning the MC have an almost photographic memory and he is an engineering soldier who focus on technology knowledge. Warning: MC is grooming his teenage fiancé to be his wife. There are s*x scenes too. (Recommended but with warning: Adult/Mature tag.)  <<less

You may not like one of these novels on the list, people have different taste, but all the novels entered these list by your quality, and how well written they are, at least in my perception and knowledge of how things work, i may be wrong, but i doubt i am completely wrong.... more>>

I know that there are better or worst novels it's doesn't mean you can't like and enjoy worst novels or cliche works with plot armor,generic characters, OP MC and s*upid harem, if it's fun for you go ahead, i personally like to watch bad animes sometimes, and like some people i started reading web novels from the usual Cultivation/Xianxia/Chinese novels, after a while i was tired of the same structure and similar plot from the common chinese cultivation novels, so my taste changed and nowadays i look for other things when i try to read something.

And i do have my guilty pleasure, i do enjoy some isekai or transmigating novels that exist, even though sometimes the system or the world doesn make sense lmao.

Dont mind the number of ranking after the top 3 that actually are my top 3 ever, my favorite novels, the others their positions don't matter that much, however they actually are in the right positions based on what i like the most, but this isnt the list about THE TOP 20 NOVELS AND THERE ARENT BETTER NOVELS THAN THE ONES IN THIS LIST... or something like that. I'm not a native english speaker so everything that i wrote may have some errors... sorry. <<less

No description.

I have decided to collect here the novels that I like (and that are decent reading), so expect quality and variety in abundance ;)PD: Feel free... more>> to recommend me a novel. <<less
