He must be insane, many concluded. But what they didn't know, was that this one-in-a-million-year genius, had returned with one sole mission in mind. And that was to SAVE HUMANITY!

"Why do people love to twist facts, especially to the person they deeply hated, to convince everyone he is a villain?" Ixcahua was betrayed and slain by his former comrade. It was all because they feared his strength and personality. Hence, he regretted not conquering the Murim World. He suddenly awoke in the foreign world, where it underwent apocalypse after his reincarnation. When the world is in chaos, he wants to build an Empire. "Wow, you want to build an Empire? I'm touched.

Riku Aoyama was just a broke, unlucky and starving college dropout waiting for his time and scraping by on instant noodles, and ended up as part-time buddy—until a mysterious vending machine offered him a deal: a system that lets him buy anything. Want a skills? Check. Looking for knowledge? Instantly downloaded. Legendary weapons? Delivered to his door. Authority, time, fate, even the affection of others? All up for sale—if he can pay the price. With the Infinite Wallet System, Riku’s once-pathetic life turns into a wild ride of action, opportunity, and temptation. From unlocking forbidden martial arts to building a harem of powerful women drawn to his rising charisma, Riku is determined to forge an empire, one purchase at a time. But every system has its cost. As he gains power, hidden forces begin to notice his ascent. Gods, demons, and beings beyond reality have started watching—and some want to claim the system for themselves. Action-packed, hilarious, and mature, this is the story of a man who can buy everything—except his own peace of mind.

Deadpool goes in Solo leveling........chaos of course.

A young man sits alone, facing the vast ocean, holding a strand of spiritual energy, and pointing toward the boundless world. In this world, wherever things are wrong, they can be fixed. Some have slain dragons with a single strike, their blades bathed in dragon blood. Others, once fond of serving chicken soup, now tend to nine phoenixes in their backyard. There are those who sat at the mountain's peak, speaking with such eloquence that their words alone could silence a million troops. And some wielded their brushes to move mountains and reshape the landscape, crafting intricate scrolls that could imprison gods and immortals. Yet, when spring arrived and the flowers bloomed, they were merely ordinary figures—a humble butcher, a disreputable scholar, a chicken farmer, and a penniless artist. This is the story of how a low-level martial world is transformed into a hyper-fantastic, boundless realm. From the mundane to the extraordinary, a young man leads the charge, ushering in an era of change. Bold enough to challenge everything, he and his companions will forge a legend that will never be forgotten.
