[a]What happens when humanity's greatest weapon gets a second chance at life? Commander Kronos wasn't even considered to be a human but rather a weapon to be used for the greater good of his species. He was grown in a tube to be the perfect weapon, so he lacked many emotions/experiences most people take for granted. Upon experiencing some emotions for the first time he was quickly eliminated by humanity and was reborn into a world of swords and sorcery, getting a second lease on life.

[d]A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show unlike anything in the universe: a dungeon crawl where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible.

In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth—from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds—collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground.

The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot. A dungeon so enormous, it circles the entire globe.

Only a few dare venture inside. But once you're in, you can't get out. And what's worse, each level has a time limit. You have but days to find a staircase to the next level down, or it's game over. In this game, it's not about your strength or your dexterity. It's about your followers, your views. Your clout. It's about building an audience and killing those goblins with style.

You can't just survive here. You gotta survive big.

You gotta fight with vigor, with excitement. You gotta make them stand up and cheer. And if you do have that "it" factor, you may just find yourself with a following. That's the only way to truly survive in this game—with the help of the loot boxes dropped upon you by the generous benefactors watching from across the galaxy.

[e]What would happen if a bloodthirsty and imperialistic civilization and their hordes of client races decided to invade a modern day Earth? And did I forget to mention these invaders brought their own Magik with them? Well, then it's your lucky day, because you can read Flash of Blades, Rumble of Guns to find out!

[f]A human engineer named Tom accepts a deal to travel to a Fantasy world with the mission of changing it forever. He is given a week to prepare before setting off. Once on the other side, he is greeted by a fantastical world and its inhabitants. his original mission to change this world and have some fun while doing it quickly turns into him making a home for himself and defending it and his new family against whatever ends up coming their way. The story will also follow the POV of Sapphire a local woman who Tom encounters early on in his travels to yield a closer insight into our local population.

[i]One of the best, when it updates. Cliffhangers are very rough when the next chapter is absolutely months in the future.

[j]Available on multiple other sources.

[k]Aliens invade earth and they have muskets for weapons. Instead of going on the “normal” road where they find and advance FTL, humanity has rather went on the road not taken and advanced everything else.

[l]Guy gets summoned as a hero and the US government does shady stuff. Oh and there is a evil worldwide organization thats oddly similar(probably inspired by tbh) to real life three letter agencies.

[m]Note: There is initially a portal, but the portal closes leaving the protagonists on the other side.

Very well written and certainly underrated series, it’s on the short side for royalroad series but it’s very high quality with a ton of bonus content in journals and images.

[n]Also available on Royalroad

[o]On long-term Hiatus

[p]Leaving a modern day setting (phones, schwarmas), changed to be slightly darker and have lite magic tournaments to decide kings, which then duel to decide wars instead of spending millions of lives, King Grey, now having lost all motivation in life, is poisoned by a political rival. He awakes in a fantasy world as an infant, given the opportunity to truly become the man he wants to be. The story’s qualities are: Solid and developed hard magic system, SOLID character development, very long and just now getting ready for the climax, 2 major turning points starting from halfway through, clearly shows the effects of combat on people as well as the role of family.

[q]Its exactly what it says. John Brown is brought to several worlds freeing people from slavery or similar. The novelty wears off after a bit but its really fun while it lasts.

[r]Possibly Dropped by author - 200d since last chapter update

[s]Being rewritten(it’s been 10 months, and it’ll very likely take years more), only book 1 is available on /hfy.
