The Kingmaker System

AnimeVerseGirl
"The masterminds are cooler than heroes," I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game. Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit. Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not? *** [Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.] What? [Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.] Wait, what?! [Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.] And, why would I do that?! [Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.] Why would I save him?! [The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?] Ah! I give up... It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things. In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker. I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need? Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though. I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse! Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is... [Failure: Destruction of the World.] It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped. If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing. [Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.] "If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne." And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.

Dead X Alive

The world’s population has been reduced to less than 500,000, but the only remaining traces of the apocalypse are the Elements–“Elements of Life,” many call them. Jelani is 18, but he’s already left one past behind and now lives as a soldier, fighting for the city of Hoodsale. Beneath the shadow of Mt. Hood, Oregon, he exists, going about his day-to-day life with the least enthusiasm possible. However, when he’s called on a mission to hunt down the criminals of this world–“rebels”–his company is caught off guard and torn to pieces. But Jelani survives, obtains the power of an element, and, with the world on the brink of a second disaster, he resolves to gain strength and make his existence known. All drawings (and the cover art) are drawn by me!

Marvel: The Cursed Child

“Ryomen Sukuna, Meruem, and Light Yagami are chosen after their deaths to be fused into a single being by an entity self-proclaimed as an ‘Outer God,’ which seems to be placing far too much into a single new soul. The story follows a ‘mutant’ named Alex, a 16-year-old who lives a normal life—he goes to school, shops like anyone else, and works a part-time job. Like all Epsilon-class mutants, he suffers heavily from prejudice by humans. Of course, he constantly walks a tightrope between being publicly lynched for his horrible appearance or simply being ignored. Fortunately, he is not alone in this life—his mother is the only thing that makes him want to keep living. But one day, while he was returning home, a group of anti-mutant people went after him and tried to take “justice” into their own hands. However, when that happens, something within him awakens, causing massive destruction.”

Hogwarts: The Mythic Primordial System

Wrong world. Right power. A wand in hand, a universe in mind. A first-year at Hogwarts wakes a Mythic Primordial System that speaks in principles older than magic. Spells still work—just not like the textbooks say. The System unlocks Sevenfold Insight, hardens skin to ironbound flesh, and sets quests that pay out for clever choices: earn a beast’s trust, outwit goblins at the bank, turn a duel into an alliance. While professors grade charms and hexes, he builds a hidden Sanctum and learns to weave fate-threads through choice, promise, and name. Each step bends school rules—potions become elixirs, brooms become windcraft, shields become bodies that do not break. Dark wizards scheme in shadow. The System is already there, several moves ahead. Magic meets myth—and the syllabus will never survive it.

Aidan the oldest amongst the quadruplet echoed, “That’s all the more reason we should keep her close, letting her die is to easy.” He turned to the guards beside him, “Take her to the Pack, she is our Personal maid." Adrien chuckled lightly, a sly smirk appearing across his lips. “Nice idea Aidan. We would make her suffer!" CONTENT WARNING.

Roots Buried in Another World

Li Yanshu is known for her precision, her calm under pressure, and her unwavering sense of justice. As a Special Task Force captain, she has faced countless life-and-death situations—but nothing could have prepared her for the case that would shatter everything she believed in. What begins as a hostage crisis soon spirals into something far more sinister—an incident rooted in hidden cruelty and buried truth. In the aftermath of that tragedy, Yanshu’s life changes in ways she could never have imagined. Because the real shock wasn’t the explosion. It was what came after. Her mother—the one person she trusted above all else, her confidant and safest place—had been hiding something. A secret so deep, so impossible, that when it is finally revealed, Yanshu begins to question not only her past… but her very existence. That secret becomes a doorway. A doorway to another world. A world unlike Earth—where magic flows through the air, ancient powers rule in silence, and magical beasts roam untamed lands. A world tied to her mother’s forgotten past… and to Yanshu herself. Now, with her mother’s life hanging by a fragile thread, Yanshu must step into this unknown realm to save her, uncover the truth behind her origins, and face dangers beyond human understanding. Because some roots are not meant to be buried. And some truths… can change everything. But in this unfamiliar world, she encounters someone who shouldn’t exist— a man from her original world. He doesn’t recognize her. He doesn’t know her name. But she knows him. The nameless thief from her past... And his presence may be the key to a mystery far greater than she ever imagined.
