[Welcome to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Roguelike World.]

[In this world, awakened from an ancient slumber, the Dragon of Creation has thrown all existence into chaos. As an alchemist, you must journey across the land to find a way to save the world.]

[Along the way, you will borrow the power of past Duel Kings to gather materials, forge them into cards through alchemy, and ultimately build your own deck. Your final mission? Defeat the Dragon of Creation in a climactic duel and restore balance!]

Yudou: "So, uh, question—why the hell did you send me to the Fate universe to fight in a Holy Grail War?!"

Sure, the system—based on the game’s mechanics—had granted him alchemy to forge Yu-Gi-Oh! cards from gathered materials.

But he was just an ordinary, physically unremarkable card game nerd! How was he supposed to compete with a bunch of cheaters who nuked battlefields with beams of light?!

Simple. He’d pivot into a Summoner and swarm the enemy with Duel Monsters while bombarding them with Spells and Traps!

"Oh, by the way—did you just summon five Skeletons?"

WOO—!

"METEOR’S COMING, BABY!"

【No romance + Interstellar multi-race setting + Plagiarist-style protagonist + System

Cultural Renaissance + Multiple secret identities + Face-slapping the entire universe with “it’s actually good”】

Lin Wei was developing the first comprehensive game on Blue Star—

when she suddenly transmigrated into an interstellar world.

At the start, her stepmother exiled her to a garbage dump,

and the system bound to her demanded she assist in launching a cultural renaissance to prevent the collapse of interstellar civilization.

Starting from scratch, her very first move was to steal an assault ship from the space pirate who came to assassinate her—

earning her first pot of gold in this new world.

From there, she went incognito, creating countless secret identities.

A cat meme exploded across the interstellar web, getting the entire universe to vibe with it.

Her mystery novels were filled with twist after twist—no one could guess the culprit.

She casually turned them into detective games, which sold over 500 million copies.

One groundbreaking novel after another opened the minds of interstellar readers to brand-new worlds.

What? The rationalist faction claims arts and entertainment are a waste of time?

She hit back by making an educational game—

and suddenly the military and United University were scrambling to work with her.

Later, the people of the interstellar world realized… all those secret identities might just belong to the same person.

You're saying… all those novels, films, and games were made by her???

— “They say emotions are a genetic defect?”

— “No, you’ve just forgotten how dazzling humanity was meant to be.”

Note: The “plagiarist-style” protagonist doesn’t copy works word for word. She adapts and reinterprets based on the story and worldbuilding. Some works are inspired by real ones, but many are original—novels, games, scripts, and more

"Knowledge is power. The so-called superpowers are just primitive people with rifles."

"It is their luck to get a rifle, but it is their misfortune that they don't know how to shoot."

"Would you be afraid of a primitive man who used a gun as a fire stick?"

"I don't know the principle, at best I can classify it as a larger ant."

"Similarly, the alien beasts are nothing but springtails in front of me."

Sitting on the mechanical throne, Lin Kong looked out at the world devastated by the invasion of alien beasts.

A world that even the supernatural beings who have achieved spiritual energy revival cannot save.

He came to the rescue.

Ask him where he gets the confidence from?

Lin Kong sighed, and countless streams of light streaked across the sky and hit the ground.

Waiting for the dust to dissipate, giant steel statues stood on the battlefield.

Facing the wailing of the strange beast, Lin Kong gave the order in a calm voice.

[System, Entertainment Industry, Comedy, Acting, Music, Transmigration, Power Fantasy (Shuangwen)]

[AI generated summary]

After a lifetime of relentless effort, actor Ye Xiao finally lands his dream—the leading role in a major production. His triumph is cut tragically short when a freak accident on set ends his life. He reawakens to find he's been given a second chance, transmigrated into a parallel world where the entertainment industry is the most glorious and respected path one can take.

His excitement soars when a System binds to his soul, a golden ticket in a world built for stardom. However, his destiny takes a sharp, comical turn. The System, his supposed key to success, is a vast "Music Library." For Ye Xiao, a dedicated actor who is completely tone-deaf and can't read a single note of music, this is a cruel joke.

The System's first directive is an ultimatum: rise in the music world and earn points, or face a second, permanent death. Forced into a career he knows nothing about and is hilariously inept at, Ye Xiao's first request to his omnipotent System isn't for a chart-topping song, but for help enrolling in a basic music class so he can learn to decipher the "ghostly talismans" it calls sheet music.

This novel follows the comedic journey of a man who wants to be a legendary actor but is forced by a life-or-death system to become a music icon first. Armed with a library of classic hits from his old world but zero personal talent, he must reluctantly conquer the music charts, all while hilariously trying to steer his chaotic new life back to his true passion: the silver screen.

[Mecha, Mecha-Musume, Aerial Combat, Ace Pilot, Transmigration, Technological Gap, Underestimated Protagonist]

[AI generated summary]

In a world where elite pilots bond with sentient, anthropomorphized fighter jets known as "Mecha-Girls" (机娘), the story begins with a pilot seemingly doomed from the start. He finds himself partnered with a cast-off, "roadside" mecha-girl, a model mocked by all as obsolete scrap, fit only for a dismal retirement as a low-capacity transport plane.

But this pilot is no ordinary rookie. He is a ghost from a bygone era of aerial warfare, a legendary ace and master engineer reborn into a world that has forgotten the meaning of true skill. While the current generation of pilots blindly rely on the raw power and stats of their machines, he scoffs at their simplistic tactics. He holds the knowledge of legendary, high-G maneuvers like the Pugachev's Cobra and an understanding of aircraft design and modification that far surpasses the locals' crude attempts at "upgrading."

This is the story of a master's return. Armed with the wisdom of a more advanced era and partnered with an underestimated machine, he will dominate the skies. He will demonstrate that the hands and mind of the pilot, not the price tag of the jet, determine victory. The novel follows this ace and his team as they rise from obscurity, transforming their "useless" mecha-girl into a terror of the skies who will shoot down every so-called genius who dares to challenge them. It is a high-octane, "Ace Combat-style" story of skill, engineering, and a veteran pilot showing an arrogant new world what it means to be a true legend.

Yan Changqing is a patient who has been paralyzed in bed for twelve years.

He had the same dream repeatedly for the past twelve years. In the dream, he was a healthy man with his own estate and animals to keep him company. They were apes, snakes, foxes, wolves, and butterflies.

The ape taught him imitation and wine making.

The snake taught him [detection] and [avoidance].

The fox taught him how to cheat and how to counter-cheate.

The wolf taught him "hunting" and "camouflage".

The butterfly taught him [art] and [aesthetics].

He thought that such days would continue until his death, until one day his dream changed. The animals and the manor disappeared, and were replaced by seven humans and a strange foggy world.

Is this a dream or a different space? Yan Changqing has no way of knowing. He will face one horrific incident after another and use the skills he has learned to find a way out of the incident.

Read 213Ch. #267
It's pretty good. Reminds me of the book "Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god". The talent is the same and the concept of death games is basically the same. But that book's plot seems less tragic than this one's. This book's setting is unclear based on what I've read so far. *spoiler kind of* All of Earth's population are stuck in prisons and forced to participate in these death games. Each person is given a talent (and these talents seem pretty varied and overpowered from what I've seen) and the talents each player has are a secret to one another. The main character has a talent that allows him to make any lie true as long as at least half (including himself) of the players believe it. So if there's only one other person left, he's basically invincible. *end spoiler* The MC is ruthless and kills without blinking. He seems to not care about taking others lives if he can live. He doesn't seem to want to form any kind of positive relationship with anyone. Maybe that will change in the future, but right now he is quite apathetic and has no sympathy for the weak. He also trusts basically no one. I may or may not continue reading this. The concept is interesting but I don't usually like such cold-blooded MC's. At least please give him a little humanity author. I hope the MC can get an actual friend or someone he trusts. Otherwise he's just going to go further and further on the road of becoming a psychopath serial killer. He's already killed so many people. If anybody reads further than me, please let me know if the MC changes to become a better person.
Read 71Ch. #70
I like the idea but unfortunately I probably won't continue reading. The players (called goblins in the AI translation) are just too unserious. Which is fine but the MC (Wei Yuan) also doesn't seem to take the *spoiler* war between the pirates and himself seriously. Space pirates are about to invade his planet but he just lets the players run around and do their own thing. I get that maybe he doesn't want to control them too much, but it's a war that would result in him losing a planet, and he and his players just don't seem to treat it seriously at all.
Read 888Ch. #886
It's a good book so far. There's some nationalism, yes, but not so much that it becomes unreadable. The book basically doesn't focus on the MC becoming strong but his organization becoming strong instead. Some major points of the story (not really spoilers): - The MC is the president of an organization he created to contain "weird" - The MC can summon people/subordinates that he can assign the backstory to and for certain ones, control manually - The story so far is centered around his subordinates (including some people he recruited from Earth, not through summoning) solving various dungeons - I don't really read thriller/horror books but this one is not scary at all and I don't think it really fits those genres that well. But it is a good book, so my recommendation is to give it a try. I'll continue reading it and see where it goes and update this review later maybe.
Read 192Ch. #192
It's pretty interesting so far. Although it's mainly about the MC growing more and more powerful very quickly (quit an overpowered MC) and faceslapping people along the way, it's still interesting. And the concept is unique, combining the chat group feature with the clone feature, and adding a system on top of that. I don't know why the person below gave it 1 star, but I recommend people to give this book a try if you like this kind of novel. I just hope the MC doesn't have a romantic relationship with that woman that was mentioned early on. He's growing more and more powerful and that woman is still so weak. The difference in status don't make a good couple pairing in my opinion.
Read 217Ch. #218
Alright so I'm just posting this review to refute what the person below said. I think the author just made a genuine mistake. In chapter 147, it's written: " Do you want to be a lawyer in the United States?" Domestic diplomas are of no use at all. Although this guy said that he made a lot of money in the United States, damn, he had to get a law degree in the past to be a lawyer in the United States, and he is probably still in college now. " I really don't think people should give up on such an interesting novel for such a small reason. It's not even a big deal to be honest.
Read 118Ch. #366
I honestly don't know why I like this novel so much. I mean, I can't even understand any of the moves that are made or the terms. I've never played Go before or chess or anything, but somehow I became addicted reading this novel. I saved up 100 chapters then binge-read them in one sitting- now I'm very sad that I have to wait another few months to save up chapters. Anyway, give it a try even if you're like me and have never played Go before. Maybe you'll like it.
Read 33Ch. #41
Well the concept is kind of unique but I personally can't read it anymore due to one main reason: The main character almost immediately reveals his "secret" identity "accidentally", which would be okay maybe under certain circumstances, but not here. I mean, he's not secretive at all about his 'pets' and shows them off constantly. If you're an assassin, why would you reveal that your weapons ('pets' - that are tied to your identity) belong to your supposedly normal, ordinary self. It's just stupid.
Read 375Ch. #376
Although I haven't read too much (and probably will give up on this book), I think it's fairly okay. It's a beast taming novel essentially with all the face slapping parts included with these types of novels. The main thing that interests me in this novel is the intelligent "Spirit pets" that can actually talk to him and stuff. There are way too many woman surrounding the main character though for my taste. All of his spirit pets are female and the people he's around are also female. He *spoiler* attends a all-female academy where one of his female rivals and another person become interested in him and they argue over him. In short, it's very annoying to see people fawn over the MC just because he's capable. Their families even told them to get closer to the MC. *end spoiler* I sincerely hope the MC does not end up in a romantic relationship with any of those woman in the end. If there's a love interest or multiple, I would prefer it to be the spirit pets or something. I'll give it a 3.5 for now, rounding to 4 to balance out the 1 star review.
Read 1016Ch. #1000
It's a pretty good book so far. The main character isn't a complete psychopath and cold-blooded killer. He has emotions and connections in the real world and the mission worlds. But he also doesn't hesitate to kill who he should. Though there is a tiny bit of "China is the best" in the book, you can ignore it (I haven't seen much nationalism so far). The MC does join the government to protect his sister and himself until he grows up. But he isn't a lackey for the government by any means. He gets the benefits basically by doing nothing but staying alive (That's how one of the characters described his new job promotion in the book). And eventually **spoiler** all governments are basically destroyed and the population of Earth is moved to a cultivation world. Also if you're worried about the MC's sister being his weakness, she actually dies in the middle of the story basically and the MC respects her decision to die naturally and doesn't try to revive her or keep her alive or anything. Once you get to a certain point, the MC becomes so powerful that basically all fights lose suspense and people are scared of him. I don't really have an opinion on that, having read countless novels with overpowered protagonists. **end spoiler** I would like to see more of what happens to the world after the MC leaves just to satisfy my curiosity but that's just a personal preference. I tried this book because it reminded me of a similar book (Reincarnation/Samsara Paradise: https://wtr-lab.com/en/serie-291/reincarnation-paradise?tab=about) which I started reading but stopped because I thought the author quit writing it (They just took a temporary break but now it's finished). It does have a lot of similar tropes and I can't really say which is better.

Hm, if you ignore all the racism and nationalism, it's actually a fairly decent book. I would say the ideas in the novel are pretty unique. From what I've seen (Ch. 178), basically the main character Lin Ye creates these extremely hard dungeons relying on his modern knowledge that other people play and fail to pass because the world's technology is only at the World War 1 stage (I think it said). The whole book so far is just exploring people playing his dungeons. Not much of a real plot. If you're looking for that kind of thing, you won't find that here. It's a lot of face-slapping. Like a lot. If you don't like that kind of thing and hate racism, then stay far away from this book. Supposedly the world in the book has no countries yet the factions are basically the countries in real life. There's China, the U.S. , Germany, Korea, etc. The book is set from the points of views of various characters that play the dungeons. You rarely see Lin Ye's POV and even when you do, it's kind of just there, not serving much purpose. The dungeons are actually kind of interesting to read about (in my opinion). Well the second dungeon is definitely less realistic with future technologies that don't exist, but the first one is good. I don't know much about history or military technologies, so I can't comment on the realism of that stuff. But it's a fictional book. Just ignore anything that may seem illogical and the nationalism and you'll be fine to read this book. **Edit: I've read up to chapter 441 now and I won't spoil it too much but let's just say the first ~420 chapters are just a prologue to what's to come. It sounds really exciting. I've binge read this book in 2 days and I'm kind of sad that I'm going to have to wait for new chapters. *** Edit 2: Well I've finished reading this book, was restless and started searching for similar books and found a book with the exact same concept and ideas but different execution.
