Victor, a Tucson wrestler hoping for a community-college scholarship, is summoned to a System-controlled world and sold into slavery as a pit fighter. With no levels, no Energy, and no class, he must survive the pits by fighting above his expected capabilities, earning Energy — the universal resource for levels, skills and magic — and unlocking a Berserk-class progression. After breaking from slavery, Victor delves dungeons, hunts spirits, inherits Titan Blood and later Magma Heart powers, and climbs through Earthshaker, Sojourner, Champion, Void-Forged and World-Walker stages. From the author of Falling with Folded Wings (MC Gallup writing as Plum Parrot), the 11-book series is noted for isekai, System apocalypse, and gritty pit-fighter to world-walker advancement.
A high-octane cyberpunk LitRPG progression fantasy. In 2107, megacorps rule while most scrape by. Juliet Bianchi, a scrapyard metal-cutter in Phoenix, stumbles on a botched kidnapping and inherits a stolen hyper-advanced AI chip — Angel — that launches her from worker bee to killer queen. Enhanced with nanotech, bodywork, and escalating cyberware, Juliet (codename January/Lucky) climbs from bottom-tier drone to top-tier mercenary, operator and off-world operative. With more than a million views on Royal Road, the series blends dystopian corporate warfare with explicit System-driven power scaling, where each job grants upgrades — combat, tech, telekinesis, mind-reading — and failure is measured in corporate capture.
