About this listen
For Noah Vines, death isn't the end. It's a weapon.
After standing around in the afterlife for thousands of years, Noah is all out of patience. When the opportunity to steal a second chance at living arises, he doesn’t hesitate.
Reincarnated into the body of a dying magic school professor, Noah finds that he took more than just a second chance. He got infinite. Every time he dies, his body reforms.
Lives are a currency, and Noah Vines is rich.
With countless variations of runic magic to discover and with death serving as only a painful soul-wound rather than a final end, Noah finally has a chance to wander the lands of the living once more.
This time around, he plans to get strong enough to make sure that he never has to wait around in the afterlife again.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

Story
After fulfilling the duty all Arch Necromancers are tasked with, the last thing Sylver Sezari expected was to be reborn. He was usually the one reanimating dead things, after all. How ironic. But reborn he was. And after crawling his way back into the land of the living, he finds himself in a strange land, a strange time, and with a strange floating screen in front of his new face. Either through plan or chance, he’s alive again, and planning to enjoy himself to his heart's content.

Story
I used to be the greatest Earth Mage in my world. The head of the entire Order of Architects. But the older you get, the more you come to realize that at some point, you need to retire, so that you can have the chance to enjoy a peaceful life and to cede your place to the young, some of whom have already turned two thousand years old . . .So that's what I did. But I failed to account for one thing: during the course of my long life, I'd accumulated too many enemies, and they had decided to spoil my retirement. So they died along with me. And I hope their deaths were final. But mine was not!

Benny White had been having a rough couple of years, and the approaching apocalypse wasn’t exactly helping. Pulled from the point of death and thrust into a horde-mode-style survival game, Benny’s odds weren’t looking too great. To make matters worse, an eldritch god… entity… thing named ‘Dave’ tasked him with destroying the very System that now controls his fate. But hey, it's not all bad news. Benny’s experience as a lab tech grants him a rare Splicer Class that lets him repurpose the genetic material of slain enemies into augments for himself.

Syl was given a choice by Gramps when they died. Reincarnate as a regular person or embark on a daring experiment. Driven by a desire to honor Gramps and a sense of adventure, Syl chose the latter... only to awaken as a lowly slime. A farmed slime. The life of a farmed slime was cruel. Syl was constantly at the mercy of humans, a slime whose only purpose was to eat and recycle garbage. The threat of lethal core-destroying knives wielded by innocent children was a constant shadow. This was not the life Syl had envisioned. So, they made a daring escape to the wilderness!

A strong start
ATENTION: There is a repeating sequence around chapter 4. Once it starts it can be skipped by simply going to the next chapter.
This is the ONLY editing error in the book and while it's pretty blatant,its not a deal breaker like some knobbs want you to believe.
The strong points being the magic system and idle banter between characters. The weak points definitely being the world building and a rather bland MC.
I personally think this is the authors best work yet. So if you enjoyed his other stuff youd like this as well.I didnt regret the credit.

Actus!!! You absolute genius.
Ok, I liked his Eldritch Horror stuff. I really liked the concept of the cooking stuff. But THIS?? Oh yeah, this is the good stuff. It’s an isekai where the MC isn’t a complete moron AND he doesn’t just knowwww everything. He’s in a sticky situation and has to stop making it worse. He doesn’t just make bread and the entire world falls over itself to eat it and then he becomes king because nobody else knows the secret recipe.
Magic system is based on runes, but how you gather power is pretty open ended, which I love. Can’t wait for more.
