《Cultivation Anomaly Type 7A Variation 3Z》Ch. 1 - A Bizarre Rebirth

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE DIED! Calculating Karma. Please Wait. Calculating New World. Please Wait.
He stared at the little blue window before his eyes for a moment, trying to process the statement. Hazy memories of a mugging gone wrong, followed by a painful beating and being stabbed nearly a dozen times by a panicking mugger, slowly filtered into his mind. He groaned. What a stupid way to die. He should have just handed the bastard his money, but noooo. He had to be stubborn about it and make the guy panic.
He sighed and looked around. Interestingly enough, the boxes didn’t remain in the center of his vision, like they had when he’d been focusing on them. Whatever else they were, they were well designed. And far more interesting than the blacker-than-black void around him.
NEW WORLD HAS BEEN CALCULATED! World Type: Cultivation World, Variation I8 World ID: 8R3372U700EI1
How… Engaging.
KARMA HAS BEEN CALCULATED! Karma: 12912 See available options? Yes/No
“Yes?” He said hesitantly. Immediately, a new window appeared.

He blinked at the two columns before him. Then his gaze flickered back to the box about his karma. He focused on it for a moment and, just like he’d hoped, a new box popped up.
KARMA EXPLANATION!
Your Karma value is based on a calculation of all the good and bad things you’ve done in your life, added to all Karma that was unspent during your previous reincarnation.
Old Karma: 3256
New Karma: 9656
See full calculations? Yes/No
He declined. Then a question occurred to him. “Why is reincarnation like, well, this?” To his delight, a new box popped up.

REINCARNATION SYSTEM!
The way each individual experiences reincarnation is different. For every person, it takes on a form that’s easiest for them to understand. For example, the ancient Chinese had a mythology that involved reincarnation, so their process of reincarnation took on that appearance. For you, taking on the appearance of a video game is best.
The system itself was created by thousands of benevolent celestials working together to manipulate the multiverse. This system is a work of art. The absolute peak of what magic is capable of. It is meant to allow people to choose their own punishments and rewards for their next life.
He wondered what is said about him that his reincarnation experience took on the appearance of a video game. A psychologist would probably say something like, “It’s because you can’t handle real life, so you’ve retreated into video games to cope!” Or something like that. But he wasn’t his ass of a brother, so he couldn’t say for sure.
He turned his attention back to the lists of perks and detriments. He tried to crack his knuckles, only to discover that his body was missing. He was just a floating ball of blue-white light. Grumbling, he started going through the lists.
Along the way, the reincarnation system very helpfully provided a notepad and a calculator. He didn’t need food, water, or sleep, so the only thing holding him back was boredom. But his gamer senses were going too haywire for him to be bored. He was being given the chance to optimize his own life!
He had no idea how much time passed. Well, more than minutes. Certainly more than several hours. Maybe even a few days, although he doubted it was more than a week. It was impossible to judge time, so it could have been centuries, for all he knew. But finally, he was ready.

He looked over the list one last time. The first detriment was definitely a dangerous one. But the one bright side of it was that it wasn’t guaranteed to be a truly terrible thing. The way it had been explained was that he would end up doing something that would make a Fate’s Chosen, basically a classic xianxia protagonist, hate his guts. But if he played his cards right, it was completely possible for them to just hate him and move on without doing anything to him instead of having a burning need to kill him.
It was a gamble. One he dearly hoped would pay off. As for the second, that was also a gamble, but a much less important one. Even if he got terrible innate talent, he could use his improvement system to, well, improve himself. And it was entirely possible that he would start off with something amazing. Vanishingly unlikely, but a guy could hope.
He turned his attention to a certain box. One he’d been ignoring until now.
REINCARNATE? Yes/No
Taking a deep breath (or trying to; he couldn’t actually breath and there was no air to breath even if he wanted to), he selected yes.

My Shapeshifting Life
Following what many people described as the 'Whispering of the Sirens', the entire world shifted ever so slightly. A dozen or so individuals through the world awakened unimaginable powers, beginning what would later be known as the 'Metahuman Revolution'. Lilith, a woman who'd always thought of herself as a normal, down-to-earth kind of person, suddenly found herself caught up in all of the drama and changes. With the military wishing to pick her up and force her into becoming a supersoldier, the media obsessing over her, and the scientists salivating to get their hands on her, she really could use any help she could get. Thankfully, while the world still didn't make much sense, at least she gained some sweet powers that could help her survive, if nothing else.

The Fate Eater
What might a man really do if he found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as a dragon prince? How would he come to terms with his new nature, his larger-than-life family, the agendas of warring factions, and the destiny he never asked for? This is a story that intends to defy some isekai tropes, but play into others. It's mainly about exploring a rich hand-crafted world, full of its own history and mysteries. Its characters have their own lives and aspirations, and our protagonist is but a piece of the greater tapestry. This story is not about right and wrong, or good and evil. It's about a dragon-man being tested by fate, power, and time. It's about what it's like to live as an outsider who lost their home. But perhaps the most central theme is freedom. What does freedom really mean? What will it cost and how much might one be willing to pay for it? Does it even truly exist? Let's find out together.
