really interesting. it’s a lot slower than your typical webnovel. since i just started i’m not too far into the novel, just a couple hundred chapters in, but there’s more than a thousand chapters for me to read. wow. don’t be fooled by the chapter numbers shown on this site, go search up lotm to find the rest. ... more>>

i’m not sure where to rank this yet, since i feel like i haven’t gotten to the really juicy parts yet, but still this ranking is pretty high right from the start

With the rising tide of steam power and machinery, who can come close to being a Beyonder? Shrouded in the fog of history and darkness, who or what is the lurking evil that murmurs into our ears?

Waking up to be faced with a string of mysteries, Zhou Mingrui finds himself reincarnated as Klein Moretti in an alternate Victorian-era world where he sees a world filled with machinery, cannons, dreadnoughts, airships, different machines, as well as Potions, Divination, Hexes, Tarot Cards, Sealed Artifacts…

The Light continues to shine but mystery has never gone far. Follow Klein as he finds himself entangled with the Churches of the world—both orthodox and unorthodox—while he slowly develops newfound powers thanks to the Beyonder potions.

Like the corresponding tarot card, The Fool, which is numbered 0—a number of unlimited potential—this is the legend of “The Fool”. <<less

[Congratulations, Seo Hoyoon! You have been selected as a player in Nugu Idol Tycoon.]

The bastard PD who everyone criticized has now become an unheard of idol in a parallel world.

The only person who remembers him completely is his brother.

To return to the original world, he must become the number one idol and clear the game!

“…Accept the quest.”

“Are you crazy?”

“Don’t I need to eat well to survive?”

His specialty is blackmailing, his hobby is conciliating.

The idol survival story of the evil PD who sticks to his job no matter what! <<less

i love. the mc doesnt have the mannerisms of a typical idol trainee. he isnt bubbly. hes pretty odd, and the fans find that endearing! ... more>>

i skipped to where i was in the manhwa rather than starting reading the novel from the beginning since i already knew the plot. so, i dont know if the start of the novel is good or not (my friend said the beginning was bad, so maybe read the manhwa first...), but the rest of the story is fun (i love the murim arc)... more>>

Mc is a shithole hes so entertaining. Very cunning. If you search this up there will be a harem tag attached to it, but its bearable bc he just uses them to protect himself rather than for s*x or love. He doesnt rly care about them, and some of them understand that. Some dont ask for much. Lol im making it sound like this novel is about harems, but its not. Just a disclaimer if anyone becomes uninterested in the novel bc of the harem tag. ... more>>

One day, I was summoned to this world.

Beasts poured out, and an incredible crisis came.

My talents couldn’t have been worse.

[The player’s talent level is at rock bottom.] [Almost all the numbers are hopeless.]

Whether you have to become a warrior or a wizard.

Whether you’ve gone back in time.

You have to take advantage of everything in order to survive.

“What about it?”

“I’ll use everything I have to survive!” <<less

Kim Dokja does not consider himself the protagonist of his own life. Befitting the name his parents gave him, he is a solitary person whose sole hobby is reading web novels. For over a decade, he has lived vicariously through Yu Junghyeok, the main character of the web novel Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse (TWSA).

Through Junghyeok, Dokja has experienced secondhand the trials of repeatedly regressing in time, in search of an end to life-threatening “scenarios” that force people to act out narratives for the amus**ent of god-like “Constellations.”

After reading 3,149 chapters—long after all other readers lost interest—Dokja finally resigns himself to the story ending. However, he receives an enigmatic message from the author, stating that the story will soon be monetized, before his surroundings suddenly go dark.

He swiftly realizes that fiction has become reality and he is now living through TWSA. Although he is the singular omniscient reader of the events yet to come, his success in the scenarios is not guaranteed—but perhaps his advantage will empower him to step into the protagonist role that never suited him before.

Amamiya Hiroto is unlucky. His life consisted of misfortune after misfortune, culminating in an unlucky death during an incident on a school boat trip, trying to save a girl he barely knew. After death, he met a god of reincarnation who requested that the hundred or so dead passengers—one of them being the girl he tried in vain to save—be reincarnated into another world.

Yet a series of unfortunate events forced Hiroto to reincarnate with even less luck than before, starting with nothing but a tremendous amount of Mana. His second life, far worse than his first, came to a cruel end.

However, upon meeting the god a second time, he was informed that there would be yet another reincarnation—one that had already been set in motion and could not be stopped. Not wanting Hiroto to live long, the god cursed him before he was reborn in the hopes that he would either die quickly or commit su*cide.

Hiroto was reborn once more as a half-Vampire, half-Dark Elf. A Dhampir. Not wanting a fourth life, he is determined to live this third life with the only things remaining from his previous lives—death-attribute magic and his enormous Mana pool. <<less

I received my test results, where two words stuck out in devastating clarity.

[No Talent]

It was something I’d already known, but it stung a little more than usual today. Was I lacking in effort or talent? Or both? Was it my fault that I was living like this, or was it society’s?

In the years since Players, Streamers, Guardians, dungeons, and monsters became a part of our everyday life, my sister died from leukemia trying to support me, and my mom passed away from a disease we couldn’t afford to treat.

I went to sleep, and when I woke up the next morning to continue my futile life, I found… that I had somehow gone 10 years back in the past, to the day the world changed.

While going through the Tutorial, I realized something.

Everything’s too easy. Was I really talentless? <<less

I was the same, but the world had changed.

[You are the new constellation of realm #381jh051.] As if it wasn’t enough to have entered the world of a novel, I became a constellation.

To make matters worse, the guy who was stuck in the elevator with me was the problem.

This man is the enemy of mankind, someone who turned evil in the novel and destroyed the world.

‘Wasn’t one of the reasons why he turned evil was that he wasn’t chosen by the constellations?’

But now that this has happened, I have no choice but to sponsor Baek Tae-beom and get out of here!

[Skill: Activating Sponsor.] [Skill: Sponsor has been canceled.] [The sponsorship of 10,000 coins has been canceled.] [Reason: Insufficient amount of coins] [Possessed coins: 0] Wait a minute.

I think I’m screwed.

[Line from the novel] “Don’t disappear in front of me ever again, hyung.”

Baek Tae-beom smiled with brilliant golden eyes like a beast’s. I couldn’t help but stare at him as if possessed by his fatally beautiful appearance.

“Then I really don’t know what will happen to me.” <<less

He almost became a Hallyu star and his biggest career in entertainment was placing 12th in an idol survival program.

The works he rejected were enormously successful, but every work he went into was destroyed one after another.

So when he came back to his original body, there was a face genius standing in the mirror.

One day, Kim Jiho, who earns a living by pickpocketing on the street, leaves the facility he was living in after being hit by the owner of the facility. After walking on the street endlessly because he has nowhere to go, he sits down in front of the road and thinks.

If I get hit by a car and die here, it’d be good if it’s an expensive car.

While he was thinking like that, an expensive car stops in front of Kim Jiho, and the man who rides that car asks.

“Wanna hop in—If you have nowhere to go.”

Kim Jiho, who thinks there is no goodwill without hidden intention, makes up his mind and follows the man. But the man doesn’t make any demands after taking in Kim Jiho.…. <<less
