I'm looking for a story that has a MC that is OP from the start/becomes OP at the beginning. Preferably they would be a person who is the leader of a powerful group or they themselves have been given a title that leaves people in awe and fear. I want them to be going around without flaunting their power but also not trying to hide it purposefully. You could say that I want a story after the MC has already reached the apex and now is visiting places and people from his memories somewhat incognito. Basically a blend of the jap novel trope of OP MC hiding their power and the wuxia/xianxia trope of MC not afraid to destroy a sect. It can also be a non-wuxia/xianxia novel if it has the desired specs.
I recommend ‘The New Gate’ basically was a death game, mc solos the last dungeon and gets transported to a real world version of the game with all his abilities (and the ones he got for clearing the dungeon). It’s on shin translations.
Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Spoiler: Reason MC practices internal cultivation, so everyone thinks he is basically a cripple since he has a low 'battleforce' rank. The MC later gets a dominion and uses advanced knowledge from our time period to make it the most terrifying force possible. He then sits back and lets all of the warlords fight it out, only obliterating them when they mess with him.
Hm,your request is difficult.There are 2 types of mc in an op from the beginning story:the retard one and the normal one. The normal one you can find in stories like Forgotten Conqueror,Number one/two under Heaven where the mc is sane,has a good tolerance point,wise and likable.These are the stories which I love,but are too few.. The retard one you can find in Martial King's Retired Life or New Gate like novels.Op mc,hides his power to a disgusting extent,would rather take the abuse and insults than show a little of his power to ward off the flies.Usually they are a joke,some used as comedic relief,beaten by females,no self esteem,not likable and with mental problems.Those mc could be god themselves with the power to destroy universe and I still would not touch the novel given their exquisite traits and personality
