Stepping Wild (Dungeon Runner, Book 4) by SyStPierre

Tibs escaped the guild, by fleeing his home. But that was years ago. Years on the run, two decades of staying one step ahead of his hunters, while trying to gain access to dungeons so he could regain the strength that was taken from him and go back to enacting his revenge. But Tibs did more than search, he learned. read more books then he imagined existed, talked to Scholars, asked all the questions he could think of, but never got enough answers. and he trained. Dungeons speed up the gain in strength, they told him a long time ago, the only way to really become powerful, but Tibs won't let that stop him. So he learned as much as he could, and trained as hard as he could. and he made progress, Went from the bottom of Upsilon to somewhere in Rho in two decades. but he's now stuck, unable to push through the next step to advance. But he knows it's only a question of time until he can con his way into a dungeon and gain what he's missing. and he has time. those two decades barely saw him age a quarter of that, a young man, instead of a child. and he may be closer than he thinks. a mystery in a village leads to something unknown that could be the answer he's searching for if it doesn't kill him first.

As employees of the game company Interdimensional Enterprises, they help the Game Moderators revise the game's systems and manage the players, while taking on the more dangerous or high profile missions themselves as an elite unit. Defending other worlds from powerful enemies has become routine. But when the deities who are their clients become targets, and world after world is cut off from their aid, the four of them must face their most dangerous challenge yet.

Shapeless Hero by Lefthills

Identity crisis? What's that? ---- An earthling's soul was born into an incompatible, human body. Their muscles misbehaved, their skin and body felt like a rigid shell, and their weak constitution left little options for any activities outside of paperwork, books and anything on a screen at home. Then the divine beings tried to correct the mistake and removed the mismatched soul from its unfitting body, slinging it to a distant world with a new body to control. The human flesh-prison replaced with the unlimited options of a shapeshifter, the soul has now a magic-filled world to explore. Grow fur for a mountain hike, grow gills and fins for a deep dive. It's time to catch up on decades worth of missed travels and activities. But who wants to deal with the flesh-craving predators called shapeshifters? Another global purge could start, if the freshly transferred soul shows its abilities too much. ---- The rankings are a mystery to me - especially after this story made it to No. 1 under the shapeshifter tag (and others). Welcome to fantasy amateur hours! This is my first time writing that kind of novel. Hopefully there's a bit of improvement along the way. Feel free to tell me what works or not! Occasionally drowning in irl-work, so chapters will be published semi-regularly, whenever I find some time to write. (Usually updated at least once per week.) If it wasn't obvious already: Cover art made by yours truly.

The White Hare by Vencaer

Dying from unknown means, a man suddenly finds himself reborn in another world as... a hare? Not a rabbit or a bunny. A hare walking on two legs. Now, with a system straight out of an rpg or an isekai lightnovel, "Jack" has to survive being at the bottom of the food chain in his new home. Luckily he has a great mom and dad to help him out. During his journey the man will end up using his experience in his past life to help his new family in this one. Most conflicts arise from the young buck sticking his nose into places he shouldn't or allowing his... unique tastes lead him on his next hijinks. [Also anyone is free to comment. I appreciate the reactions and feedback.]

Elyra: Legend Reborn by AoNoNgao

There is a force older than time itself, flowing unseen through the land, the skies, and the souls of those who walk this world. Some call it magic. Others, destiny. But in Elyra, power is not merely taken-it is earned, stolen, fought for, and sometimes... cursed upon the unworthy. The continent stretches endlessly, its lands carved by ancient wars and civilizations lost to history. Ruined cities stand as silent witnesses to battles long forgotten, their stone walls whispering secrets only the daring seek to uncover. Deep within the mountains, martial artists forge their bodies into weapons beyond human comprehension, their strikes capable of shattering steel. In the grand halls of scholars, mages bend the laws of reality, weaving spells that twist the very fabric of existence. Some claim magic is boundless, limitless in potential... but those who reach too far often find themselves consumed by forces they cannot control. But for every force that builds, another seeks to destroy. Beneath the surface, fire rages in an endless inferno, a realm where even the bravest fear to tread. High above, unseen hands pull at the strings of fate, shifting the balance of the world with every whisper. And hidden within sealed chambers, beings older than the stars slumber, their names long erased from mortal tongues. Legends speak of a kingdom that once ruled everything, a kingdom that no longer exists. Some say it was consumed by its own greed, others whisper of a power too great for the world to bear. Yet remnants remain-artifacts, symbols, fractured pieces of a puzzle scattered across the land, waiting for those foolish or ambitious enough to seek them. The air is shifting. The world stirs. Something is waking up. And when it does, Elyra will never be the same.

The Marionetteʼs Puppeteer (Volume 1) by Callme_pierre28

I don't know if I died or not, but the moment I regained my consciousness, I was already standing on a field full of grass and surrounded by trees. "W-what is that...?" A screen was floating in front of me. 「 Welcome, new adventurer! 」 "Adventur...rer?" But..... I'm so small! My body is the size of a 9 year old kid! And I don't even know what the hell happened to me. After I read some information on the screen, I was amazed that the world I was in was like a VRMMORPG. Magic exists and so does the level. "Huh?" When I look at my status, I'm not neither a mage that cast magic nor a swordsman that wields a sword, instead.... I'm a puppeteer! Will I survive in this new world despite knowing that I don't have a place to stay or food to eat? Note: This is more likely in Fantasy. Magic goes bruh broom brr. Also, there is some terms in this stories that is hard to understand like skills, ultimate skill, so read the prologue for that one. Anyways give me a vote y'all Started Serializing on October 9, 2022 and finished: December 28, 2022 [Volume 1]

The Serpent and the Unicorn: Books I and II by SusanSkylark

What if the Myth were real and everything else mattered not? What if your very soul hung in the balance? Enter a land where the Myth is real, but many have forgotten or scorn the Truth and those who fight to uphold it. The adventure is about to begin, for even those who fight for justice are about to rediscover why. This story is not just another tale of an orphan who finds a magic sword, discovers a forgotten lineage, finds a few friends, and conquers an overwhelming evil. This is a story that crosses a continent, transcends time, plunges deep into the very soul of man, and explores all the vastness and intricacies of life. It is a story of good and evil, love and war, truth and absurdity, courage and faith, hope and despair, humor and adventure, and everything that moves the human soul. Whether viewed as Truth or Myth, it is a tale to make one think and a story full of adventure, intrigue, love, sorrow, hope, and humor: much like this dance we call life. It is a fairy story in that it involves unicorns, dragons, and other uncommon beasts and certain aspects of magic, but it is also a human story that explores the questions, doubts, fears, and triumphs common to the hearts of men. The Brethren are an ancient brotherhood entrusted with preserving and disseminating knowledge, truth, and justice since time began; they have survived indifference, hostility, disaster, war, plague, and obscurity but ever they persevere in their age-old duties. Of late, they have fallen into obscurity due to over-caution and the forgetfulness of the people they serve. A strange encounter rouses them from their secrecy and sends one of their most talented agents into the heart of a sworn enemy only to unveil an even older and more dangerous foe.

The Diablon: Interbred by smashfiction

Carolyn lives with her mother and sister on a farm on the outskirts of a dangerous forest. It is rumoured that monsters live within. Monsters that eat people. The three women try their best to keep themselves safe-unsuccessfully. One night, one of these monsters smashes into their home and they run for their lives. The monster catches Carolyn and drags her to his cave. She expects to be murdered and eaten. Instead, he keeps her alive for another purpose. One that confuses him as much as revolts her. No matter what he says, she cannot, will not, be his mate. No matter how good he smells. No matter how amazing he feels. No matter how much she starts to yearn for human flesh ...

Paths Beyond (Under Rewrite) by DeoxyNAcid

In the frozen wilderness beyond the village walls, survival isn't guaranteed-it's earned. Grey, a sharp-eyed young hunter gifted with the ability to see ethereal threads of light connecting all living things, walks a thin line between life and death with every step into the snowbound forests. His gift is his greatest tool-and his deepest secret. When the Grand Hunt leads Grey and his squad to a chilling encounter with a monstrous creature and a group of robed strangers led by a sinister old man, the world he thought he knew begins to crack. Ancient powers stir beneath the frost, and the old man's magic reveals a truth far more terrifying than the dangers of the frozen woods. As the village reels from loss, Grey finds himself facing impossible choices. His gift, once a quiet advantage, now feels like a curse drawing him deeper into a conflict he doesn't understand. Shadows whisper of forgotten paths-ancient roads walked by those who sought strength not just to survive, but to transcend. Paths where power can be cultivated, honed, and wielded by those willing to sacrifice everything. But power always comes at a cost. Blood stains the frost, alliances are tested, and every step deeper into the unknown pulls Grey closer to a path he may not be ready to tread-a path where strength isn't just survival, but transformation. And in the depths of the wilderness, where cold winds carry secrets and danger lurks with every shadow, Grey must decide if he's willing to pay the price for what lies beyond.
