Heretic's Idol: How a Nameless Village Deity Conquers the Pantheon

Brian_Yao
After a study-abroad student is doxxed and killed by fanatic idol fans for speaking out, his dying wish is simple: to become an idol in his next life. To his shock, he reincarnates as a heretic stone statue in a Western theocratic world, where the Church deems all “non-Luminous faiths” as heresy, and Purifiers erase every trace of unbelievers wherever they go. His only hope lies in the devotion of ordinary people: a village woman’s wheat cake offering can mend his cracks; a farmer’s prayer helps his shrine take root and grow; a red string tied to his stone wrist by a young girl transforms into his very first divine power. As more and more villagers burn incense before his ruined temple, his humble shrine gradually evolves into a celestial domain. The mightiest divinity is born from the sincere faith of mortals. Amid incense and prayers, he will rise from obscurity to become the Supreme God.

Born Again, Broke and Beautiful

Alma was filthy rich. Not just “two-holiday-homes” rich — we’re talking private chefs, security guards, family with political ties, the whole luxury package. But none of it mattered. Because Alma was also... hideous. Unattractive in the kind of way people don’t even joke about. She had no friends, no presence, no value to her ultra-conservative family beyond “quietly stay out of the photos.” She didn’t work, didn’t go out, didn’t even get to be mean like the rich girls in dramas. She was just… there. Forgotten in a golden cage. Then one day, she died. And woke up in someone else's body — seventeen years old, absolutely stunning… and dirt poor. No family. No bank account. No backstory. Just a ratty apartment, a school uniform two sizes too tight, and a mysterious note telling her to attend an elite high school immediately. So she does. And this time, she’s not wasting the opportunity. Her goal is simple: Get rich again. With this face? She plans to enjoy every cent of it. But the school she lands in is brutal — full of rich heirs, geniuses, cold-blooded perfectionists and social rules no one bothers to explain. They don’t know who she is. And if they did? They’d make sure she never climbed past the first step. But Nina — that’s what she calls herself now — didn’t come back from the dead to stay at the bottom. She’s smart. She’s gorgeous. She’s faking it. And she’s about to start playing their game better than they ever expected.
