Recommendations FMC who goes independent (No CP)

[kelpough]

I'm looking for novels with a female protagonist (gender bender is okay) and no male love interest (GL/yuri and maybe RH are okay) who, very early in the story, goes independent. Basically, she gains power/knowledge/wealth and branches off from her past life situation to one where she is undeniably in charge to build a better life and defend it. For instance, starting/inheriting her own business, sect, or something more small-scale like she just inherits a house.

Something like Adelheid, Reborn From the Cosmos, Chitra, or Stray Cat Strut (and its fanfictions like Teddy Bears on Brigade).

Returnee and regressor stories like The Heavenly Martial Empress Returns and The OP Lich is a Returnee are also similar to what I'm looking for. Setting/genre doesn't matter too much, and any platform (RR, SH, Tapas, Kindle, or translated/RAWs) or format (manga/comics/webtoons) are fine.

Thanks in advance.

My story fits the bill, except it's undergoing a rewrite atm.

I recently came over a story which is exactly you want - God-Given Business Genius [novelupdates] the translation is here (harder to find for some reason lol).

The quality is... okay, better than I expected going into it bc it is translation (which wasn't much mind you). She lost everything to corporation and was killed, only to go to her 20s and have... the best restaurants ever? So takes over in like chapter 3 so very early :)

And shameless plug

Because I like female protagonist in charge of their destiny I wrote story you may like, even though it is gender bender, beware. The MC is clearly... capable and taking the control, it's just the world is fighting back :)

there's also The Broker over on royal road which seems to be pretty close to what you want.

Yes, I read this and OP sister, and on your Patreon too.

Business Genius does sound like exactly the type of thing I'm looking for, and your story sounds interesting as well.

I have encountered a few like that.
If you are okay with harem like Chitra, Tori Transmigrated has a male harem. It is on RR.

My Classmate is 200 Million Years Old works as well. As long as you stop reading when it says "END" and skip the frankly badly written side stories, there is no romance. The protagonist is more interested in rocks than humans.
Go here and filter for THMYO. The first chapter is this one.
