Novel in which,no one knows mc identity or how much power he has.(work behind the scenes) *not must but it's good to have mc these qualities:- 1.mc is not dumbass***** 2.mc is ruthless** 3.mc is overpowered* 4.mc kill anyone who knows is identity
Reverend Insanity was like this in the first and half volume. MC always hide his power and only showed it when it was absolutely necessary, not OP but stronger than most due to his experience, Ruthless [✓] and only kill or save if he gain something.
That's why I said first and half volume. At Vol. 1 all know his identity it's his hometown after all but they didn't knew his real strength as eveytime the guy fake it or forfeit a duel to know show his Gu. Same happen volume 2 as nobody except ice waifu knew who he really was and his "real" strength. You can also think about Overlord. 1. MC is not a dumbass as he thinks before act. 2. Ruthless af. 3. OP as there is not any other player in New Worls. 4.A Nobody knows his true identity just his Momon persona and his Ainz avatar, not the real Satoru guy. 4.B Nobody knows his true strength not even us readers as author keep giving him powers not related to his class with the "I killed someoned who have this power" excuse. Basically any transmigrated character can fulfill your not know hia true identity requirement.
Disagree, MC is always finding methods to disguise himself or use proxy methods to still interact with others without their knowledge that it’s him. Everyone knows the MC real name and that’s all. His power? His plot? His actual identity? That’s not so much.
Closest I can think of at the moment are Past Life Returner or After the Mountains are Flattened, but I doubt you'd like the first, and the second only qualifies before the story begins and the first part of the first arc or thereabouts. After that, he decides its not worth the effort of hiding his identity anymore for various reasons.
Some of these are exactly what you are looking for, but with minor plot differences. You can read the Spoiler(Plot Outline) to be sure. The MC's are ruthless in these novels but due to being too powerful, basically indifference. Not like Reverend Insanity where the MC is evil. Original Wizard/The Primordial Wizard : Spoiler: The Plot Similar to Throne of magical arcane, but magic doesn't exist in world, only gods do. MC studies gods and their descendants and creates magic civilization from scratch. The MC lives in a city state, at war with wild-ling shamans. The world only has city states, no countries. Each city state has a God or Goddess as a religious deity. MC is originally from earth, in his new home he becomes the son of a blacksmith. All born in the state are serfs(one class higher than slaves), MC studies to become a citizen, becomes a scholar and then later on comes into contact with Nobles(Frost God descendants). He wants such power but finds out there is now way to get it. He later finds out about the wild shamans, and studies their rudimentary system of utilizing beast bones, skins, organs and blood to achieve basic random supernatural abilities. MC studies, categorizes and comprehensively starts to record everything from scratch, he creates the first spells, the first meditation techniques and the first artifacts. He later captures god descendants studies them, and becomes the first official wizard. He alone can't create spells himself so he spreads the fire of magic, escapes from the gods and builds the wizard civilization. The Great Creator : Spoiler: The Plot This is a very good web novel, the plot is very original. The writing style is similar to the author from low dimensional world. This author is an actual phd student, his written skills are very good, and when run on a MTL, translates in almost perfectly structured English. Only some names will be odd, but very few. The plot is very good. MC finds a mysterious book, the book takes him and his surrounding to a strange dark place. MC is stuck in this place for years. MC goes crazy and starts to test the book and finds he can leave a backup of himself, he creates one by accident the first day he arrives. He lives in this place for years alone, and starts to feel suicidal, so he leaves a record of all the things he researched and decides to restore the backup. He wakes up thinking its the first day, and reads the record left to himself by his dead self, and decides to continue his work, he creates rudimentary Artificial Intelligence and other technological breakthroughs, creates all the parts he need through the power of creation in the book, but he needs to understand all aspects of a material to make it. He studies computer chips, creates new programming languages, one after another technological breakthroughs. He has used the back up function several times already, meaning many versions of him have died in this dark place. Each of his past versions have created many things using the book, and left their blueprints in the book so he doesn't have to start from scratch, his mental power grows very large and the book gives him new powers. He later on goes to Worlds and creates worlds, creates life forms, and evolve life similar to humans( because he misses other humans and if he cant go back to earth, he will create a little earth in this dark domain), and demons. The initial AI's that he creates get smarter over the years as their computers are fitted with advanced hardware. They also get robotic bodies similar to humans, and become his children. He cares and loves them and makes them the gods of his world. Each AI has a unique personality, they have a digital soul and are alive. Some love to please their father by taking their responsibility as gods seriously. While others like to read web novels all day, some like to do research, and some like to play around with the humans. Talented humans create unique cultivation and other techniques and MC makes them his dependents, he promotes such creative humans/demons/angels. Later on there are immortal systems, angel and demon system, magic system and many more. The novel is a story of the AI's as much it is of the MC. I don't want to mention too much, so i only wrote basic outline, the plot is very good, full of mystery and intrigue. The author is very talented. I’m a God in Another World : Spoiler: Plot Spoiler MC finds out he can travel to another world from earth whenever he wants. He finds primitive people in other world who start to worship him. He starts to condense a Divine Shard in his body meaning he has the potential to be a God. He finds out that he can choose his own priest dome or create a new one that doesn't exist. He ends up creating one based on earth universe. He becomes strong in the other world and slowly creates cultivation techniques for earth as well. Similar to Shepherding humanity. Shepherding Humanity : Spoiler: Plot Spoiler MC is diagnosed with cancer, and before his death he encounters an alien bug. The bug is a unique creature with the power of evolution, it can deploy spores and evolve them into any direction desirable, the only limit is imagination. MC clears a plot of land and does experiments on ants, giving them the gene of chimps. He evolves them in the direction of humans and manages to succeed. The miniature humans live on a land the size of a room, but to them its so large that it would take 30 years to travel around the world on foot. MC also makes miniature plants, animals and other fauna. He creates a separate plot of land and allows humans from earth with knowledge of evolution to 'login' and evolve their own creatures, which he takes for himself and introduces in the world of miniature humans. MC becomes a farmer of civilization, the earth humans create complex and amazing bloodlines, and the miniature humans use those bloodlines to create cultivation techniques, MC benefits all around. He later on allows some earth humans to go to the miniature human world. He also creates lots of other worlds, one in his basement, one underground, and even on mars and Venus and other planets outside the solar system.

He is one of many time controllers, apparently these beings were born after the 'god' left the universe. The 'god' is the MC from Low Dimensional Game.
