    Loking for Novel/Manga/Anime with following:

    - Preferebaly Female MC
    - No cultivation
    - No game elements (levels, skills, stats ...)
    - Calculating MC
    - Charming MC who uses others (charms -> use -> discard)
    - MC has no romantic feelings to anyone (not in past, present or future), of course she can fake them to get what she wants.
    - No recuring character with romantic feelings towards MC
    - MC does anything to get, what she wants

    It can be pretty much any setting, but historical / fantasy is prefered.

    So in general something like:
    - Youjo Senki (btw, love writing style in these novels)
    - works of Nanasawa Matari
    but with MC who uses her charms instead of strenght.

    Thank you for tips

    Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder Record - seems like there's really a plot behind all the transmigration and system tings..... though we seem far from that. It starts as a simply girl going through many difficulties to preserve her life and changing.

    Hmmm, goddess creation system (manga). There are points she can purchase stuff with but it isn't a game system, no levels and skills have to be actually learned manually.

    The Strategy to Become Good at Magic - It has game system BUT, it is in the background and other than first few chapters rarely mentioned. She would just go I need to grind to this level and that is pretty much it.

    Kumoko was exactly the novel I was thinking off when I wrote no game elements ;), thanks for tip tho.

    I'm a little scared of that Romance tag, but the rating looks great, I'll try it, thanks.

    I tried already, but most novels on first 2 pages don't really fit or I already read them. And to check all... well that would take loooong.

    I'll check these, thanks for tips :)
