Abnormal Gourmet Chronicle

Ethan Cross was just an ordinary college student in his past life—until he died trying to save a banker playing hero. Now, he finds himself reincarnated in "New World", a realm plagued by Dread Beasts, where only those who awaken Aethermarks can become Heroes. But there’s a problem. Ethan has awakened as an E-rank Hero, the weakest tier, cursed with only one ability slot—a death sentence for any aspiring warrior. With no powerful clans willing to recruit him and the world already looking down on him, his future seems bleak. Until he discovers his Innate Talent: Sanctum of Beasts. This mysterious power grants him access to a personal dimension, where he can hunt endless waves of Dread Beasts. Unlike the real world, slaying them in this space drops Ability Fragments, which he can combine to gain abilities without slot restrictions. Even better? Time flows differently—he can train for days, yet only an instant passes in reality. Determined to rise from nothing, Ethan embarks on a secret journey to accumulate power. But as he completes missions and unravels the truth about the Black Pits, he realizes there’s something far more sinister lurking beneath the surface. The Hero Association hides dark secrets. Villains roam freely in the shadows. And Dread Beasts may not be the mindless creatures everyone believes them to be. With powerful enemies watching his every move, Ethan must play a dangerous game—remain unnoticed or become the hunter of both beasts and men. But one thing is certain: In this world, strength is everything. And Ethan Cross will carve his own path to the top—no matter the cost.

Something's off in the shinobi world. Bizarre events are popping up left and right. The latest intel to land on the Third Hokage's desk is about a creepy cult operating in the Land of Water. These fanatics are worshiping an ancient deity known as Cthulhu. ---------- ---------- I don't own Naruto or Lovecraft related things. Kudos to Masashi Kishimoto and H. P. Lovecraft.

From the author of "I hate maths but respect it", a high fantasy progression story with lots of decoding of Litrpg system. In a world where the system is the universal truth, a person's class and skills dictate their future. Mariah has suffered the agony of two stillborn children, but this time, her child lives. However, he is no ordinary child—he is a monster: a Software Engineer. Born in a quiet village near a mostly peaceful forest, Peter is an anomaly. Gifted with IDE, a skill that functions like a software development environment, he can modify and evolve abilities at will. With unlimited potential from birth, mediocrity is never an option. Follow Peter, a modern mind trapped in a medieval high fantasy world, as he navigates a life filled with magic, adventure, and uncertainty "Will he be able to harness his limitless potential, or will the weight of his own power become his downfall? And when the world he cherishes begins to crumble before his eyes, can he hold onto his modern ideals, or will he be forced to change?" What to Expect • A slow-paced, immersive storytelling style blending character-driven development with event-driven progression • Deep world-building and proper character growth • A high fantasy setting reminiscent of Frieren and Mushoku Tensei • A LitRPG magic system, analyzed through the lens of a programmer protagonist (think Solo Leveling but with logic and coding principles) • Progression fantasy with skills, classes, and leveling mechanics • A weak-to-strong protagonist ________________________________________ Tags System, Weak to Strong, Male MC, Slow-Paced, Adventure, Action, Slice of Life ________________________________________ Author's Note I love reading slow-paced, deeply detailed novels, so my writing reflects that. If you enjoy world-building, magic systems, and character development, this might be the story for you. I believe in free speech, so even critical reviews are welcome. If this isn’t your cup of tea, I’m sure you’ll find plenty of other books that match your taste. Thanks for checking out my work—have a great day and happy reading!

Keizen, whose the only one left in the Universal War succumbed to his wounds and died. But then, he suddenly finds himself in a strange place... Wait, he knows this place... [ A/N: I'm too lazy to write a synopsis xD.]

Betrayed by the family that was supposed to cherish him, Lin Mo’s first life ended in misery—starved and forgotten in a locked room. Once the long-lost heir of the prestigious Lynn family, he was treated worse than an outsider, while their adopted son enjoyed the love and privilege meant for him. But death was not the end. Reincarnated with the memories of his past life, Lin Mo now sees through their lies. This time, he won’t waste his time seeking love from those who abandoned him. He will carve his own path, sever all ties, and rise from the ashes of betrayal. As he steps away from his so-called family, a storm brews in the world around him. Secrets unravel, enemies emerge, and the people who once discarded him soon realize they’ve lost someone irreplaceable. But it’s too late. Because Lin Mo has already chosen his own destiny.

The world was never the same after that day. Humanity learned that they weren't alone in the universe, but that wasn't something they had the time to worry about. Their realization was accompanied by catastrophe. Creatures beyond their wildest imaginations poured down from the sky and appeared from the earth. They slaughtered humans as if it was their singular purpose, driving them to the brink of extinction. The people of the world did everything in their power, developing unique traits and technologies to create a united front their enemies couldn't penetrate. They secured victories and repopulated, feeling as if they stood a chance against the foreign invaders. They fought and they fought, doing everything they possibly could to ensure their survival. Until the Great Calamities appeared. In front of them, humanity was nothing regardless of its efforts. One by one, the worlds were turned into piles of rubble in between the cracks of their teeth. Civilization was torn apart, and the evolved humans living within could do nothing to stop its collapse. Humanity itself was left extinct, and in the end, only a single man was left alive amidst the chaos. Why? For what reason were they punished so? Nobody knew why the attacks began in the first place. He looked into the distance at the memories of the past and firmed his resolve. “It can only be me.” He knew of a miracle that could return him to the place of those memories. He knew of a way to make the wheels of time spin in reverse. And using it, he alone would save humanity from its doomed fate. That was his sacred duty as its final survivor. *** Discord: https://discord.gg/dgbw4RS4ec

A deafening howl tore through the battlefield. The Octopus monster rose from the rubble, its soulless black eyes filled with madness. Olivia could barely stand. Her team was on the brink of death. And then… something moved. The tiny snake sank his fangs into the Bowolf’s cores. A surge of energy exploded. Wings of pure fire unfurled, its golden eyes blazed. A dragon had risen. But one fatal mistake… He fell. Something inside Olivia snapped. A roar ripped from her throat as flames consumed her. The sky cracked apart, and then… [SYSTEM WARNING!] [The Fire of Chaos has been activated.] [Continued use will lead to destruction] But Olivia wasn’t stopping. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thirty years ago, the world ended.  Unknown monsters descended upon the earth, plunging it to ruins. But with the destruction came a blessing or rather a curse.  The System. Now, humans wield superpowers, battling the creatures that threaten their existence. The last survivors formed factions, fighting to stay alive. But survival is a cruel game of fate. Every year, the system selects a group of unwilling teenagers  by lottery- to fight, to die. Olivia never asked for any of this. Betrayed by her family, forced to fight, she was left for dead. Until fate intervened. Until she met him. Little White, the small, snake-like creature at her side, is hiding secrets far greater than she imagined. When death closed in, his truth unraveled, along with something even darker inside Olivia—power, overwhelming and untamed. The Fire of Chaos is burning inside her, and if she doesn’t learn to control it…. She’ll destroy everything. Survival is just the beginning. The real war is yet to come.

It is said that you shouldn't meet your heroes. Gehaldirah, a high elf of royal bloodline didn't have to meet the realm lord of High Heaven before he became disillusioned. His admiration for the paragon of the high elf race turned into hatred when he got some damning knowledge about why demons kept attacking his home and looting the sacred tree of life. His hatred for the realm lord turned to self-hatred for his weakness and mediocrity. Gehaldirah had a moment of introspection. He isn't at the bottom of the ladder in this strength-based hierarchy. He is a king of law, but that apparently isn't enough to guarantee your fate. His strength is also mediocre because it was granted to him because of his bloodline. He determined he had to change himself. He has to become better. He concocted a plan that is one part genius and one part greed. His plan for reincarnation led him to the trial of heaven that occurs every origin cycle. He needed Origin essence so he participated in the trial. He got more than he wanted from the trial. His plan for reincarnation would be a success after some adjustments. But now he has a different aim. He won't aim for just the realm lord. The realm lord has control of the High Heaven Realm. That isn't enough for Geraldirah anymore. He became greedier. He has his sight set on the movers and shakers of the Void Universe. Only the power to subvert the will of World Gods will do. The plan to create LEGION, the ultimate organism was then hatched. If one person cannot achieve something, what about a multitude of them? His journey will not be easy. He will have to overcome Celestials and their Celestial Supreme, Gods and their GodKings, Demon kings and their Demon gods. The Void Universe is full of obstacles that will like nothing more than to put an end to his path. It is not that they hate him. They will oppose him simply because the era of conquest is coming. There are no friends in the era of conquest. It is everyone for themselves. And he will use everything and everyone for the advancement of Legion. AUTHOR: I cannot promise that you will like it.
