Becoming a God Starts with Acting

[A 5 chapter mass release is coming! Save the date: December 20th] A world without gods struggles against cunning and dangerous monsters from another realm, teetering on the brink of collapse—until… Silvanus never expected to die at the peak of his glory. He was on stage one second, accepting his third consecutive Best Actor award. The next, he was dead—crushed by a falling glass stage light in a tragically ungraceful demise. But the worst part was yet to come. He didn't indeed die. Instead, he woke up in an entirely different world, one on the verge of being swallowed by darkness due to an overwhelming invasion of monstrous creatures. [Beep—Acting System activated! Greetings, my god. Please create your character and start collecting Acting Points!] Thus, humanity discovered that they now had gods, divine protectors who guided them in their battles against monsters… A god who feared everything yet could foresee the future. A narcissistic deity who commanded water and life itself. A depraved being who, despite his corruption, remained undefeated against even the strongest creatures. No one knew they were all the same person. "Worship me. Believe in me without end. And one day, I shall truly descend upon this world…" ... Silvanus once thought that all he needed to do was seal the endlessly appearing dungeons, but the world was far broader than he had imagined. As secrets gradually came to light, Silvanus’s journey toward becoming a true god grew ever more difficult, entangled with even greater conspiracies. Can Silvanus rediscover himself and complete his own growth in order to repel the darker, more sinister forces that are constantly plotting to invade the worlds under his dominion? . . Minimum 7 chapters/week. Support the story with Power Stones and Golden Tickets! Thanks a lot.

I soloed the apocalypse wearing a grocery bag

a world forever altered by the emergence of mysterious monoliths and the Awakening of superhuman abilities, seventeen-year-old Max Morgan lives in the shadows of New York, haunted by the scars of a past life he can scarcely forget. Reincarnated from Alex, a battle-hardened special ops agent betrayed and gunned down by his own team after forty-seven years of unwavering loyalty, Max has vowed never to let anyone close enough to wound him again. Trust, to him, is a fatal weakness—a lesson etched in blood from his former existence, where camaraderie turned to treachery in a haze of gunfire and desert dust. Orphaned young and raised by his elder sister Elena, a confident Awakened warrior thriving in her guild's dungeon raids, Max feigns normalcy as an unremarkable, unawakened teen. But when his own system finally activates, granting him the unique skill "Administrator Rights"—a daily Administrator Point convertible into a thousand stat points or a hundred skill points—he glimpses a path to unparalleled power. Capable of eclipsing seasoned Awakened through sheer, effortless growth, Max converts his points in secret, boosting his stats to godlike levels while testing his might in low-level dungeons under a ridiculous paper-bag disguise to avoid detection. Yet, even as he unleashes brutal fury on monstrous foes, . Max's isolation deepens. Paranoia from Alex's betrayal keeps him from confiding in Elena or forming bonds, turning his gift into a solitary curse. As whispers of greater threats loom and fleeting encounters hint at potential allies, Max must navigate a world of heroes and horrors, all while guarding his heart against the one enemy he fears most: vulnerability. In this tale of reincarnation and redemption, power comes easy—but trust may prove impossible.

Zombie Apocalypse: I Have Safe Zone Superpower

The beginning of the apocalypse brought chaos and disaster to humanity. It tore away the mask of society and revealed the cruelty hiding beneath. Ivy Ravencroft experienced it all firsthand. Her family was unfair and cruel, and they abused her so badly that she went blind. Her lover died trying to protect her, and she spent the next five years struggling to survive, until she finally died in the apocalypse. But then, Ivy woke up again, reborn in the first year of the apocalypse. At first, she felt hopeless. If only she had returned to a time before the apocalypse, she could have gathered food, weapons, and supplies to survive better. Still, she was grateful for one thing: she had kept her special ability, the power to create safe zones. This time, Ivy made a promise. She would protect her lover, find her real family, and take revenge on everyone who had hurt her. .................................. "Huh? Why is there a bento box lying here?" Ivy asked, confused. "What bento? Are you trying to trick me again?" Silas asked, sadness in his eyes. "This one!" Ivy said, holding up the packaged meal and waving it at him. "What the... where did that come from?" Silas stared at it in shock. Ivy’s eyes widened. She realized something, only she could see these items, and when she picked them up, they became real. "Can… I buy it from you?" Silas asked, unsure. "Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay. Tell me how many gold bars you want." Ivy smiled and teased, "I don't want gold bars; they are way too cheap. I want one kiss." Silas: Blushing hard. His subordinates: "..." This wave of dog food was too unexpected! ....................................................... With the supplies, picking a superpower and a safe zone superpower, Ivy built her own residential area. She gained Kindness Energy and multiplied supplies with the help of Temporal Storage. While other bases struggled to make a simple house, she used her golden finger to make luxurious buildings and rent them out, becoming the big shot in the apocalypse.

One piece: The Greatest Swordsman of the Rocks Era!

After transmigrating into the world of One Piece, Ares joins the infamous Rocks Pirates. There, he steals Kaido’s Devil Fruit the Fish-Fish Fruit in its Azure Dragon form and embarks on a terrifying, madness-ridden path that strikes fear into every corner of the world. His name is Ares, universally recognized as the most powerful swordmaster in centuries! Rocks: “He’s the only pirate the Navy doesn’t even want to catch because capturing him would require mobilizing the entire Navy!” “And by ‘entire,’ I mean every last Marine!” Mihawk (“Hawk-Eyes”): “Even these eyes called ‘Hawk-Eyes’ can no longer discern the gap between him and me!” Linlin: “He’s not human, I've never seen a madman like him!” Kaido: “He can cut through anything in the world he desires… even my own body!” Ares is a “madman” whose mind teeters on the brink of sanity. Ares himself asks, “Tell me how can I forge myself into an indestructible, legendary blade?” Synopsis Ares awakens in the One Piece universe with memories of a world-traverser but none of the usual “system” crutches. Determined to carve out his own legend, he infiltrates the feared Rocks Pirates once the most formidable crew the sea has ever known. There, he confronts Kaido and miraculously claims the Azure Dragon form of the Fish-Fish Devil Fruit, forever altering his fate. No longer bound by human limitations, Ares channels his newfound power into mastering the sword. His unprecedented strength and ruthlessness earn him notoriety: the Navy fears even attempting his capture, Yonko tremble at his approach, and the greatest swordsman, “Hawk-Eyes” Mihawk, acknowledges Ares as his superior. Yet, beneath the legend lies a man obsessed with perfection. Haunted by a singular goal to become a blade that can cleave through any obstacle, Ares tests his limits in duels against the world’s strongest, challenges Marine admirals, and even pushes Kaido to the brink. His path of “madness” isn’t mindless chaos, but a relentless pursuit of transcendence: forging his very soul into an unstoppable weapon. As alliances form and enemies mount, Ares must decide whether his insatiable hunger for power will save him or drive him over the edge into true madness.
