He is therefore sold to a dark group known for cruel experiments on the weak. Left for dead, Zeras feels his life fading with each breath, anger and despair filling his heart. Until… [Congratulations.] [Host has been blessed by Chaos.] [Host has successfully awakened the SSS-grade Chaos Devouring Gene.] Armed with an SSS-grade Gene and an insatiable thirst for vengeance, Zeras begins his journey—a relentless pursuit to become the strongest, to rise above the universe’s boundless horizon, and to claim a power that no one before him has dared to grasp. A Path Many Have Walked, But None Have Conquered. A Future Scene… "Look into my eyes. What do you see?" A young man stands, his hair white as snow, his lips red as blood, and his face perfectly sculpted. But his eyes—no, they are not eyes. They are endless black holes, swallowing all light and hope!

In the world of Oros, steel is the only language—and Cian is a man of few words. ​The mainland is a slaughterhouse. Ten kingdoms, each mastering a unique art of death, have been locked in a cycle of conquest for a century. From the heavy warhammers of the Iron-Spire to the lightning-fast curved blades of Lion-Reach, the "Order of the Ten" determines who rules and who rots. These are the ten strongest knights alive, each a god of the battlefield representing their nation. ​Cian is none of them. He is a "muck-rat"—a nameless orphan used as a living target for noble squires. He has no title, no fancy armor, and no voice. But while the high-born brag of their lineage, Cian studies their every move, forging himself in the mud and blood of the training pits. ​When the Great War erupts and the kingdoms clash for total control of the mainland, the world will learn to fear the shadow in the blackened plate. Without a word, Cian begins his climb. One rank at a time. One kill at a time. ​He doesn’t fight for a king. He doesn't fight for glory. He fights to become the end of all things. ​The ranks are set. The blades are drawn. The era of the Black Knight has begun.

In the Cangyuan Continent, your Core is everything. It determines your rank, your worth, your name. Xiao Yan was born without one. Crown Prince. Zero-Talent. Punchline. He told himself the throne would protect him. He told himself his brother's smile was real. He was wrong on both counts — and he was still on fire when he figured it out. Left to die in the ashes of his own palace, with nothing left to lose and no reason to survive, something cracked open inside him that shouldn't exist. In the Cangyuan Continent, your Core is everything. Your rank, your worth, your name — all of it starts there. Xiao Yan was born without one. Crown Prince. Zero-Talent. Punchline. He kept telling himself the throne was enough. That his brother's smile meant something. That blood was blood. He was still burning when he found out it wasn't. Left in the ashes of his own palace — no title, no family, no reason the next breath was worth taking — something in him broke open that had no business existing. [System Initializing... Host Vitality: 1%. Balance Breaker Protocol: Active.] The world took everything and left him anyway. That was its first mistake. Now he has a power that treats the laws of cultivation like suggestions — and a memory that doesn't forget faces.

In her previous life, Li Xueyan rose from an overlooked noble daughter to become Empress of the Great Yan Empire—only to be accused of treason and burned alive by the man she loved most, Crown Prince Yan Zhen. But death is not her end. Xueyan awakens ten years in the past, on the eve of the same political marriage that once led her to the throne—and to her execution. This time, she refuses to be a pawn. Armed with the memories of betrayal and awakened with two forbidden forces sealed in her soul—the Phoenix-Calamity Flame and the Thousand Desires Core—Xueyan returns to the imperial court with a single goal: Take control of fate… or burn it to ash. Within the palace walls, every smile hides a blade, every alliance masks betrayal, and every emotion becomes a weapon in Xueyan’s hands. With her mastery over desire, she manipulates loyalty and obsession alike—turning enemies into pawns and reshaping the power structure of the empire from the inside. But one variable refuses to remain predictable. Yan Zhen—the same man who once condemned her to death—begins to show a different face. He watches her too closely. Protects her too fiercely. Desires her with a dangerous intensity that defies reason. As conspiracies deepen and war approaches, Xueyan discovers the truth behind her execution was far more sinister than simple betrayal. Heavenly forces and ancient powers had long marked her as a threat to the balance of the world—and Yan Zhen’s actions in her past life may have been part of a greater sacrifice. Now, caught between revenge and rekindled love, Xueyan must choose: Will she destroy the empire that once destroyed her— or protect the man she once swore to hate? Because this time… if her flames awaken fully, it will not be just one life that burns. It will be the world.

In this world, awakening a class is extremely rare, especially for children born from a simple background. But most nobles were blessed with the gift of awakening a class at the age of nineteen while only about five percent of commoners would be awakening theirs.

At the age of nineteen, he was from a remote village and all he had ever wanted was nothing more than to go on adventures with his new party members. However, things didn’t work out as he had planned it to be. Not only did he lost his mother, sister and childhood friend, he had also been treated poorly by his team members who were eager to get rid of him at the slightest chance they had. In the end, Ray was used as a sacrifice for their own selfish interests and all he could do was watch as they crushed his skull to paste. But luckily, Ray somehow found himself back to the very day he had Awakened his powers. And now, with the knowledge of the future at the back of his mind, Ray vows to find out the root behind his party members’ actions. Of course, he intends to also cruelly repay each and every one of them for what they had done to him, while also protecting those he had failed to save in his previous life.

(trigger warning. This book contains mature themes) ****** "I can't..." she gasped between broken moans, her voice trembling somewhere between pain and pleasure. Every thrust seemed to blur the line between surrender and defiance. Then she whispered a name between her sweet cries ...it wasn’t mine. I froze. A slow, humorless smile curved my lips as the sound of his name filled the space between us. “Raph…” she breathed. I leaned in, my mouth brushing her ear. Feeling her tremble from touch until my teeth nibbled her earlobes hard enough to make her whimper and her fold to clench around my fingers. “Wrong name, Lynn.” I hissed, withdrawing from the warmth of her insides. I felt her body tense. She clawed at my shoulders, a desperate plea in every touch. “Don’t…” she whimpered. Those jade-like eyes unravelled me that moment. I could feel the ache in my trousers. A troublesome little viper. A cruel smile traced my lips hiding my emotions. “You called the wrong name,” I murmured, my voice low, dangerous. “And bad girls deserve to be punished.” Her glossy eyes met mine... so full of confusion, want, and power she didn’t yet understand. If she only knew how close I was to breaking. Because the only name she should be calling… was mine. Lucien.

Amara Gabrielle was a mother for only two weeks before her world shattered. Dragged from her bed while her postpartum wounds still throbbed, she was accused of a murder she didn’t commit. ​"I’ll wait for you. I’ll raise Vero. Just stay quiet and trust me," whispered Richard, her husband, the man she loved more than life itself. ​Bound by blind trust, Amara spent 7 agonizing years behind bars, sleeping on cold mats and clutching the only photo of her son until it was worn thin. She survived on the promise of a "faithful" husband. ​But the day she was released, the dream turned into a nightmare. ​Richard didn't pick her up.

Her childhood was forged in shadows, and she was sharpened into a weapon, trained to be a ghost, a killer—an instrument of vengeance. The target: a decorated general who brought down her family. But fate doesn't follow orders. Just as Lara was about to execute her long-planned mission, everything spiraled out of control. A military convoy intercepted her escape route—escorting none other than the general himself. And then came the moment that changed everything. A blinding crash. Screeching tires. Her body was thrown like a ragdoll, then darkness. She had a fleeting recollection of another world, another lifetime where kings ruled the land with an iron fist. But she woke up, and twelve long months had passed.  She did not know where she was or who she was. She remembered nothing. They told her different names. A child with trembling hope whispered, “Mommy, your name is Moira Torres.” Her doctor insisted, “Your admission slip says Larissa Reyes.” A hardened general leaned close and commanded, “Remember who you are. Remember your mission.” Then another general—dangerously calm, incredibly familiar—looked at her as if she mattered and asked, “Can I call you Lara?” The name unlocked something buried deep in her soul. Lara Norse Kromwel. Daughter of General Odin Norse. Empress of the First Empire. But the man who watched her most closely dismissed it with cold certainty. “This is the 21st century,” he said. “What nonsense are you spouting? What Empress? You are my woman. You can only be mine!"

"You will suffice." Raizen heard those words the night something chose him to survive. He doesn't know what spoke. He doesn't know why. But ever since that night, his life hasn't been entirely his own. Now he walks a beautiful world built on even prettier lies, where Eon turns desperation into miracles, Luminite weapons twist the laws of what's possible and what's not, and where humanity fights creatures of shadow they call Nyxes for as long as anyone can remember - though sometimes, the cruelest of enemies aren't made of darkness at all... But Raizen is starting to realize: the monsters aren't the only things hunting him. Something older is watching. Waiting. Pulling strings he can't see.

He may have to end anything in his path - and pray he doesn't give the whisper exactly what it wanted all along.

System Player: Luna When Luna opens her eyes, the world she knew is gone. In its place stands a ruined city governed by an invisible system—one that assigns levels, grants skills, and turns survival into a game with no exit. Monsters roam freely. Players fight for power. Death is permanent. Luna is not special because she is strong. She is special because she connects. From the moment the system awakens her, something about Luna unsettles its rigid rules. Her abilities don’t focus on destruction or domination, but on bonds—threads that tie souls together, allowing trust, strength, and emotion to become power. Where others rise alone, Luna grows alongside those who choose to stand with her. As she gathers a small unit of survivors, Luna becomes the quiet center holding them together. Kai, a disciplined warrior haunted by control. Twin siblings Mira and Arin, sharp-tongued and fiercely loyal. A broken family hiding secrets the system wants erased. And Liora—a silent girl hunted by the system itself. Together, they build more than a team. They build a home. But the system is watching. As Luna’s power evolves, it begins to reveal an unsettling truth: she was never meant to exist this way. Classified as a Legacy Anchor, Luna represents something the system cannot fully calculate—choice, empathy, and growth beyond control. Every bond she forms destabilizes the rules that govern this world, drawing attention from powerful enemies and elite hunters who seek to claim or destroy her. Caught between survival and rebellion, Luna must decide what kind of player she will become. Because in a world designed to turn people into weapons, choosing to care might be the most dangerous act of all. System Player: Luna is a post-apocalyptic progression fantasy filled with emotional depth, slow-burn romance, found family, and a living system that fears the one player it cannot command. And this time… The system may have chosen wrong.
