Novels tagged with Determined Protagonist

  • I woke up only to find a doppelgänger of my childhood self right in front of my eyes! To make matters worse, something that was definitely supposed to be there... was gone! Even the Dark Lord (lol) would be shocked by this turn of events. It’s one of those classic tropes you often see in fanfiction. Since Harry is the protagonist, the villains from the original series are described in a rather harsh light, but please remember that’s strictly because Harry is the narrator. I have absolutely no personal "anti" or "character bashing" sentiments toward any specific characters. Everyone is just doing their best to live their lives...

  • Sometimes, things get worse before they get better. And sometimes, that involves near-death experiences with bandits and corrupt soldiers wanting your head, cursed forests trying to make you crazy, and stumbling into a little quest along an enthusiastic but fearless goblin guard and a frightening huntress carrying way more knives than is strictly necessary. Morgan just hopes his allies won't get him killed before his actual enemies.

  • Years later, when he would finally hold the “Lifetime Achievement Award” in his hands, Makoto would recall one very specific afternoon—the afternoon he was sent flying ten whole meters… By Kitasan Black. At the time, he had only recently gotten his Central Trainer’s license. Unfortunately, his lack of experience was obvious, and many Umamusume turned him down without a second thought. And so, after being rejected yet again, maybe his mind wandered a bit too much. While waiting to cross at a red light, he spotted a child nearly step into oncoming traffic. His body moved before his brain could catch up. The kid was fine. He was not. Because he got hit. Not by a car, but by an Umamusume. She had black hair, red eyes, and a matching black tail. And she slammed into him at full sprint. Thanks to years of quiet self-training—secretly guided by memories from a past life—he managed to twist midair and land without too much damage. Still, getting launched like that wasn’t exactly part of his daily routine. The Umamusume, on the other hand, was completely panicking. “I-I’m so sorry! Are you hurt?! A-are you okay?!” “I-I'm Kitasan Black! A first-year at Tracen Academy! Pleased to meet you—wait, no, that’s not what I should say right now!” “I—I mean—I’ll take responsibility! I’ll take full responsibility for this!!” That’s how it all began. The girl’s name was Kitasan Black. And this was the start of everything. = = = = Note: Some character backgrounds and settings have been reworked for narrative purposes. This version expands the Umamusume world while staying faithful to the spirit of the original. Non-Umamusume fan can read it as a mix of sports drama and school life.

  • Recently, a special correspondent conducted an exclusive interview with Pei Qian, President of Tengda Group. Tengda Group, now valued at hundreds of billions, operates across various sectors such as gaming, internet services, digital hardware, cultural media, and restaurants, significantly impacting numerous aspects of daily life. Pei Qian himself is widely regarded as the "World’s Best Boss," an unparalleled investment genius, and a brilliant game developer. He is known for his effortless leadership style and keen ability to precisely forecast industry trends. However, during the interview, Pei Qian expressed deep frustration: “I’m truly not some kind of business genius!” “My success is entirely due to luck!” “My initial goal was merely to lose fifty thousand yuan…” See? This is exactly how a genuine business genius maintains humility and modesty.

  • I died and got reincarnated in another world… as a royal princess with nothing going for her but a pretty face. No cheat skills. No secret powers. Just a highborn title and some good genetics. Forget the easy life of brains, brawn, and effortless domination—I’m stuck being painfully average. Well, if I can’t be overpowered myself, I’ll just have to recruit those who are! Time to gather a cheat team and let them do the heavy lifting. [Announcement] Thank you for your ongoing support. I’m pleased to announce that plans for a print publication have been proposed and are currently underway.

  • The weather was perfect that day—blue skies, no clouds. But inside, I felt like it was pouring rain. "You're overthinking it," someone might say. "It’s no big deal." But to me… it was everything. When I opened my eyes, nothing made sense. The world around me was too vivid, too familiar in a way that made my skin crawl. Magic circuits, Heroic Spirits, and the Holy Grail War—wasn't this just a story? I tried to brush it off, until I saw my reflection: shining blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, and a suit of armor far too polished to be cosplay. Somehow, I've been thrown into the world of Fate/stay night—but not as myself, and not even as a Master. I'm her. The knight of legends.

  • Yuto's a loner who hates people. Raiga's the classic oblivious pretty boy—the kind of guy who naturally attracts a harem without even trying. One day, the two are suddenly summoned to another world to save it. But for some mysterious reason, Yuto is transformed into a girl the moment they arrive. Just as their journey begins, Raiga drops a bombshell. “I don’t hate you. Actually… I think I like you.” Yuto is stunned. Sure, they’ve been childhood friends, but there’s no way she's falling for this harem cheat character. “If you say you love me—then prove it.” And so begins a quest to save the world… and for Raiga to prove his love to the most skeptical tsundere in the multiverse.

  • The story is about a former male who has been TS-ed as a girl and is transported to the world of a NTR erotic game, where she uses her body and mentally saves the hero, the main character. *If there is a "♂" next to the title, it is an erotic scene from the male perspective, and if there is a "♀" it is the scene from the female perspective. Other erotic scenes start from episode 4. Cover Arts and Heroines Illustration: bit.ly/41sonfw This is the 2nd time this novel TL-ed here, previously by Munchkinggez. But because he never update it anymore and it practically can be considered abandoned project, I took the liberty to TL it myself from the beginning. So its not republish or reupload!

  • I just want to destroy everything. Those invaders, these people, this world. But ... why did you come to me, Master? If you are going to make me yours, why are leaving me after everything has ended? You are the one who is wrong, Master. You are teasing a monster like me, so it is just right for you take responsibility, right? Since you have came back for me, I won't let you get away the second time. We are never going to be apart anymore, Master, hehe~ Illustration(s): https://bit.ly/41FNRWJ

  • From the latter half of the Fate route in Fate/stay night. Against the King of Heroes, Shirou Emiya and Saber, their magic depleted, are exhausted. Shirou tries to save Saber, who is about to disappear before his eyes, by using everything he has, but... This is a submission up to the point that was previously published on another site. Although I have made corrections to line spacing and such for this submission, there are no major changes to the content. Please note that this was started with settings from before the announcement of Fate/Hollow Ataraxia (up to ~2005), so there may be discrepancies with the current Fate series.

  • A man working at a soul-crushing "black company" collapses from overwork, only to wake up as Scarlet, the cold-hearted villainess of FFVII. Determined to rewrite the future where he is destined to die at the hands of the protagonists, he decides to utilize his "meta-knowledge" of the original game. However, he has absolutely no intention of resigning from his high-ranking executive position, nor does he harbor any grand delusions of making everyone happy. Prioritizing his own comfort and survival above all else, he chooses to navigate the world of Gaia as a "villainess" on his own terms. Author’s Note: I have re-examined the lore of FINAL FANTASY VII for this work. However, given the vast number of titles in the Compilation and the various setting changes introduced in the Remake project, I have researched and blended elements from both the original and the new series as much as possible. Please be aware that there may be lore inconsistencies or the inclusion of "headcanon" (original settings) to fill in the gaps.
