Qingyuan, a century-old fox who has just mastered the art of charm, is looking for a good-looking young man with whom she wants to spend the night.... more>>

As soon as she threw it, he caught it, and fate started again.

The one who caught her was the rumored monk who could kill demons without blinking an eye. Qingyuan escaped from his hands once, but she still fell into the hands of the monk named Liao Chen.

I am a zombie, a thinking zombie.... more>>

As a zombie, all I need to do is wander aimlessly each day in a daze.

Because I am weak, I can't compete with those big shot zombies for food. I'm so hungry that I can barely function, my brain barely able to function.

If I can't even compete for food, what else can I do besides wander aimlessly each day?

Having already died once, even waiting for death is difficult.

Until one day, I was summoned to a different world by a necromancer. He seemed to give me some command, but I couldn't understand what he was saying. I turn, killed him and then I ate him.

Although his flesh was old, tough, and sour, when you have something to eat, you shouldn't be too picky.

By devouring the necromancer's brain, I gained knowledge of the common language of the continent, basic magic knowledge, and the ability to summon the undead... <<less

72 Demons Lemegeton, a game facing server shutdown due to plummeting sales. Yeah, it’s the work of my late wife.... more>>

I will definitely make Faust happy. You join me too!
Faust is the protagonist of this game. I’m a scumbag who couldn’t keep my promise to my wife.

Before the server shuts down, I gather the last currency and try the gacha.

I came to meet you beyond fate.
I thought I would fail, but I pulled a character named Lucifer that wasn’t even in the catalogue. What am I supposed to do with this now that the server is closing…

And so everything ended.

[The service termination of Lemegeton is imminent.] [In 5 minutes, the service of Lemegeton will be permanently terminated.] [We sincerely thank the Demon Kings who have loved and cherished Lemegeton until now.]

Yamamoto-san won the lottery for the initial shipment of 100,000 copies of the VRMMORPG “Life is Adventure.”... more>>

The game seems to be incredible, allowing players to experience a different world.

So, she prepared to play the game. When Yamamoto-san started playing the game, she found that her unique skill was too strong like a cheat-level skill…

Just when she was thinking about complaining to the management, a death game began for some reason.

"Is the management sane...?"

Please take a look at Yamamoto-san’s hearty life as she lives carefreely even in a death game with her cheat-level skills.

*note: it seems that 'The Well-Balanced Yamamoto-san' statement originated from Baki the Grappler which is 'あのバランスのいい山本選手がッッ……', statement that become a nickname for the character Yamamoto in the series. I don't read the manga so I don't know how it's translated, but it's probably also a weird expression even in Japanese that it became a nickname for the character. I don't read the manga so I don't understand the context but from googling, it seems either it's literally he has good balance, has good physical or technique all around, or able to handle anything. <<less

Wu Su was a demon born from chaos. Due to her low magical powers, she was often mistaken for an ordinary mortal. Nonetheless, she was content living as an average person, hidden in the bustling capital of the mortal world, working three jobs a day to support herself.... more>>

Later, due to an unexpected event, a night of revelry, she coincidentally ended up with a mortal husband.

Although he was just a mortal and their social statuses were vastly different, he was persistently attached to Wu Su. She didn't understand romantic love and thought that she would wait for him to tire of her before leaving.

But one day, a celestial being came from the Immortal Island and spoke of her husband's extraordinary talent for cultivation.

Wu Su thought, "Now he must be leaving, going to his world beyond the mortal realm, to cultivate his heartless path." However, unexpectedly, her husband drove the celestial being away.

Wu Su was stunned for three days.

One night, he kissed Wu Su's lips. His lips were cold, but his eyes burned with determination. Wu Su tilted her head, embraced him, and following the celestial being's instructions, severed the emotional bond with her husband.

He forgot about her, and Wu Su left, continuing to live as an ordinary little monster, working three jobs a day.

Later on, Wu Su became involved in a big demon's disturbance, wrongly accused as the instigator, and was captured by the cultivators from the Immortal Island.

Wu Su was brought before the ruler of the Immortal Island, the number one Sword Supreme in the world. She lowered her head and saw someone walking slowly towards her, wearing a simple and old sachet at his waist.

On the sachet were intertwined mandarin ducks, a gift that Wu Su had personally sewn for her husband a long time ago. <<less

In the year 213 of the Celestial Calendar, as the fiends to the north of the imperial court grew rampant, the Divine Emperor issued Dongyang-Jun an edict; to head north and eliminate the fiends.... more>>

At the same time, a little evil-eater who had just reached adulthood appeared in the north of the imperial court.

Dongyang-Jun: You’re a fiend?

Yin Shiting: That’s right.

Dongyang-Jun: Die.

Yin Shi Ting : Wait wait wait, although I am a fiend, have you never heard of the evil-eater who eats fiends!

As a fiend who feeds on other fiends, Yin Shiting is really a weakling.

Let’s not mention being chased off a cliff by fiends, barely after regaining consciousness he ran into a group of demons and wound up trussed like a chicken, unable to break free.

However, their leader, Dongyang-Jun, looks kind of attractive? <<less

Let’s snatch the items from the jar beforehand. Oh, and also the heroine candidates, right?... more>>

The protagonist, Tsunaka Hajime, was reincarnated as the son of the demon duke, Zaus Jarmel. It seems his memories from his previous life have awakened. In his past life, he was a corporate s*ave, worked to death from overwork.

He was reincarnated as the mid-boss that appears in the Brave Sword Quest, commonly known as Breque.

In the beginning, his father, the demon duke, is killed by the hero, and he seeks revenge against the hero. And thus, it’s a scenario where he gets killed by the hero.

Moreover, Zaus’s position is strictly that of a mid-boss. He’s just a checkpoint, not the main boss or anything. In terms of the game, it’s like a tutorial. While it makes you think the max level is 99, the scenario actually has a max level of 999. The mid-boss demon duke Zaus, who is defeated within that level 99 range, is the one.

Isn’t it kind of pathetic for the mid-boss to be defeated by the hero protagonist? And what’s up with being fated to be defeated! My previous life wasn’t great as a corporate s*ave, and it was a terrible life!

Zaus is currently 15 years old.

He will be defeated by the hero at the age of 20.

Only 5 years left.

He made the choice to avoid the bad ending. He will strengthen his own army and weaken the protagonist using his knowledge of the game.

He stopped hitting his subordinates. The monsters are valuable assets. Training them is more important than hitting them. They will be provided with ample food, and medical care will be thorough. It’s to create the strongest army to defeat the hero.

“Master seems to have changed… He might have become kind of gentle…”

Not hitting the subordinates is inefficient. Injuries to valuable assets will result in a decrease in combat effectiveness.

Everything must be done efficiently! Efficiency is paramount!

That’s right, let’s snatch the contents of the dungeon’s treasure chest beforehand too.

The protagonist’s scheming begins.

What will happen in 5 years? Will Zaus be able to defeat the hero?

The curtain rises on a thrilling fantasy of avoiding the bad ending. <<less

Mishima Kanji is just an ordinary high school student who likes games and giant robots. ... more>>

The new VRMMO “HAO” takes place in a sci-fi world and boasted overwhelming combat freedom – you could shoot guns, enhance your body and swing blades, use psychic abilities, or avoid combat entirely and profit massively from item production.

Hearing he could produce and pilot giant robots to fight, Kanji was eager to dive in, but what awaited him was the sheer crappiness of HAO’s game design. After spending all his starting skill points, all he had to show for it was an immobile junk robot and two thick engineering textbooks in English he’d never read. Infuriated, Kanji uploaded the entire textbook data to forums, an act that triggered misunderstandings about him.

Oblivious to HAO’s true nature, Kanji keeps unintentionally reinforcing others’ mistaken assumptions about him.

But unconcerned by all that, this is a tale of his efforts purely for the sake of giant robots. <<less
