I was reincarnated into a shounen hunter comic—infamous for killing off both main and supporting characters without mercy.... more>>

The problem? I’m a civilian with zero combat power.

Living a normal life and bouncing from one part-time job to another, I was just trying to get by—until I got caught up in a Gate incident. By the time I came to my senses...

[Welcome, Awakener !]

[Your Unique Ability has been successfully identified!]

“…What?”

All I got after nearly dying was the same ability as the original villain of the story—

And the shocking truth was that my younger brother is the actual protagonist of this world.

With that in mind, I have only one goal:

"In this completely chaotic shounen comic, I need to keep my airheaded brother alive!"

But then…

[Your Personal Gate has been created!]

[Your exclusive beast has been summoned!]

From the fully opened Gate, hundreds of teddy bears came pouring out.

…So my power is to summon stuff like this and fight with it?

– Wait, am I the only one who thinks the teddy bears are cute?

– What is that pudding-looking thing???

↳ Shockingly, it's the new beast Kwon Asol summoned.

– Why do all the beasts Kwon Asol summons have those faces LOL

And now, my journey begins—accompanied by people whose sense of aesthetics has been completely shattered. <<less

Aoi, who fell into despair, ended his own life and followed Mai's footsteps. He intended to die, but when he woke up, it seemed he ended up reincarnating into an Otherworld. And with the memories of his previous life for some reason at that.

And then, it was an Otherworld that was like Japan but wasn't Japan. In that somewhat strange world, the newly-born Aoi was informed of a shocking truth by his grandfather.

It's difficult to have a child in that world, and amongst them, they only have a boy at a 1 to 5 ratio. And 'you were born as the heir to a family of Gods'.

Furthermore, he wants him to unravel the reason it's difficult to have a child in this world and lead the world to have plenty of boys. He ends up accepting it despite being perplexed at being given such a request.

Without knowing whether Mai has reincarnated into this world with himself, Aoi, who has lost his reason to live, sealed off that sadness and took on the challenge of not just the birth rate problem, but the unravelling of this world's mysteries as well. <<less

However, as he tries to be a good older brother and gets closer to his siblings, things start to get twisted in strange ways…

“Shin Ju-kyung. Let’s make one thing clear.

So, is the definition of good you’re talking about possibly love?”

Giulio Parenti, who was deprived of his life by Yuri Petrov, was wounded in body and mind. ... more>>

He meets Lee Ha-na, a dangerous woman who intentionally approaches him to save her younger brother, who is in danger due to his colleague’s betrayal…

“Ciao.”

The man tilted his head and stared at her. To be precise, he stared at the muzzle and the black eyes beyond it.

“If you come any closer… I will kill you.”

“Coreano?”

“Si, come no.”

The man put his hand in his pocket and slowly made eye contact with one knee on the floor.

He brought his forehead to the aimed gun and gently grabbed her wrist.

She struggled to raise the corners of her mouth and quietly recited the man’s name.

“Julio Parenti.”

Giulio Parenti’s voice, who was staring at her lips with narrowed eyes, was as cold as ice.

“Ho aspettato. La mia morte.”

The breath she had held in slowly released.

He’s a devil with the face of an angel.

Or was it a monster? <<less

People began to call Adrina ‘Adrian,’ mistaking her for the curse itself.

Adrina, who became a knight in place of her brother, encounters another cursed individual while serving at the palace.

“Is she the subject of another rumour?”

“Yes, Your Grace.”

The man thought of the young man whose gaze was slightly higher than his own.

The one with a face closer to that of a woman than a man who looked at him with a strange gaze.

“Arrogant.”

“If you don’t like her, I can request a change.”

“Leave it.”

Later, ironically, the man finds clues to counteract the curse through the woman who embodies the curse itself.

“Adrian.”

The Duke entered the bedroom and spoke.

“Yes, Your Grace.”

“Come here. You have work to do.”

The Duke, Yules, inserted his leg between her legs as he sat.

“Your Grace, excuse me…”

Their proximity was close. Their lips brushed against each other, and she blinked. Her long eyelashes entered his vision.

All crimson. Yules, now fully awake, wiped Adi’s lips with his thumb.

“Witches, huh?”

“…”

“Romantic, isn’t it? A curse that breaks when you kiss.” <<less

I took my brother’s place to join the Secret Guard camp, and it was supposed to be just for one day. But that very night, the Crown Prince was targeted by assassins.

Beside the Qinhuai River, the moonlight was like silver. Beneath the peony blossoms, Chu Qiu leaned close to the beauties, vowing to live a life of romance, drunkenly resting his head on a beauty's lap, and laughing at the affairs of the mortal world.

His soul, like a fallen leaf returning to its roots, was silently drawn into the depths of the Underworld.... more>>

Entering the Netherworld, he obtained the supreme treasure, the "Book of Life and Death." One day in the Netherworld was equivalent to a thousand years in the world. When he opened his eyes again, he had already boarded a broken ship of transmigration.

At the awakening ceremony, he was full of anticipation, but failed midway. In despair, he re-entered the Netherworld, and after a bloody battle, he finally contracted the divine beast Diting.

Returning to the human world, he found that the road ahead was not as smooth as he had imagined. Former enemies, harboring resentment, stirred up trouble like venomous snakes in the dark night. Former friends, having succeeded in their awakening, discarded him like worn-out shoes, watching with cold eyes. Fortunately, the mentor showed concern, the city lord concealed for him, and the principal helped him soar.

Exotic beasts, Otherworlders, traitors, mortal enemies make the road difficult. Family, friendship, love, cherished thoughts can cross the bridge of life and death.

One man, two beasts, three cups of wine. Respect for heaven, respect for earth, respect for beauty.

I, Chu Qiu, today open the gate of heaven with beasts! I invite you all to witness! <<less

One day, he encounters a crystalline shard that appears to belong to the bizarre.

A shimmering crystal lodged in someone’s chest. Taeseong wasn’t sure why he could suddenly see such things, but one thing was certain—he had to remove it.
