Most people already have their life planned out. Or at least they feel they do.They already have an idea of what and who they are going to become, and how they are going to go about achieving it.But more often than not, life always has an entirely different thing planned. And sometimes, it's something better.This was the same for James. As someone who already had his life planned out, with the best and the safest plan on how to go about it, he knew what had to be done.All he just wanted was to graduate and become a world renowned mechanical engineer. And this was why he studied hard and worked extremely hard at his part time job.Even with how life kept tossing him around and making it seem like he was the only one not moving forward while others were, he was still focused on his dreams.The truth is that he also wants to be like his peers. He also wants to drive the flashy cars the rich drives. He wants to travel the world and experience the best that life has to offer, but all that comes at a cost—money. Something that has eluded him even after busting his ass, working for three years.To make things worse, the job market wasn't looking too good either.

Jeanne was only 18 years old when her stepmother and step sister framed her and caused her to lose everything. She was thrown out of the house by her father for trying to resist.

7 years later, Jeanne came back for vengeance with a mysterious son by her side—George.

People mocked her for being a single mother and called her son a fatherless child.

“Who are you calling a fatherless child? You wouldn’t like me when I’m mad,” George threatened.

“Lay low, George! Don’t ruin the fun! I haven’t had enough,” Jeanne said as she wanted to enjoy her revenge, leaving the boy speechless.

Jeanne later met the infamous Fourth Master Swan at a charity ball. The man with the handsome looks and cold temperament called her to a corner and said, “I like you.”

Everyone was shocked, including Jeanne.

“I’m a single mother and I have a child. Are you sure you like me?” she said.

“I actually… like your child!”

Everyone else was shocked when Fourth Master Swan married Jeanne but only his sly self knew that he had gotten not one, but two, important players to this chess game that he was playing.

That night, the delicate purple-eyed woman in a wedding dress sat on their bed as her husband observed her with a grin.

“So,” he drawled, his voice wicked and magnetic, “I can't see my wife's face even on my wedding night?”

“My lord has promised to fulfill my one wish,” the woman commented, securing the veil that covered the lower half of her face with slightly trembling hands.

He stared into her mysterious rare purple eyes. “May I ask, why such a wish?”

She stared back at him. “My lord might not like to see ugly things.”

He smirked and stepped towards her. “I never had a liking towards pretty things.”

A cursed princess married off to the Devil's son to destroy his kingdom but the Devil's son had a different plan for her.

The secret of her birth will be revealed only to lead the way to unleash the hidden powers inside her which no one can control.

With the hidden dangers desiring her power, can Drayce and Seren protect one another or will the darkness swallow them whole?

Due to the whims of a higher-dimensional being called “The One”, the World of Terra ushered in a Monthly Apocalypse World Update Era.Every month, the World will draw a random monthly apocalypse world update theme, and the world will transform depending on what update theme has been drawn.Starting with a Zombie Apocalypse World theme, The World of Terra became infested with zombies!As a transmigrator, Zayne Voss, who thought he was living in a normal modern world, was caught up in this madness.Fortunately, he awakened the innate ???-rank talent, the Doomsday Life Simulator System![The Doomsday Life Simulator System allows the host to simulate your future and life in a given doomsday scenario.][For example, the simulator will randomly draw a doomsday scenario, and one of them might be a zombie apocalypse scenario. In that case, the host can experience life in a zombie apocalypse world.][Of course, it's not limited to that, as there are also different kinds of doomsday scenarios like the Helios Extinction Event, where the sun explodes and humanity faces such a world-ending scenario.][Not all doomsday scenarios are winnable and survivable, as some can be a dead end. However, your goal is not to win but to survive as long as possible and attain as many achievements as possible.][The longer you survive and the more you accomplish within that doomsday scenario, the higher your score will be. The higher the score, the greater the rewards you'll receive.][The rewards you can receive are mostly related to the power, skill, experiences, and talent that you possessed before the doomsday life simulation ended. They will be brought back to the real world so the host can gain power from doing life simulations.]-Ding![The host can choose one doomsday scenario from four of the following:][A. Helios Extinction Event][B. AI Singularity Rebellion][C. Global Ocean Survival][D. Acid Rain Catastrophe]Drawing the doomsday scenario called “Global Ocean Survival,” where everyone started with a wooden raft on a vast ocean, Zayne grinded in the doomsday simulation to become stronger in the real world!While everyone was still running away from zombies, Zayne had already eaten a Fairy Fruit from the Global Ocean Survival World and killed all the zombies around him!
