Ars Daemonium

Anx69
The story is set in a modern world where most people live unaware of a hidden reality. Beneath normal society exists a secret system of sorcerers, mystics, and factions who have learned to manipulate energy—an invisible force that powers all living things. While ordinary humans use this energy unconsciously, a select few can control and weaponize it. John, a rational and skeptical high school graduate, is unexpectedly exposed to this hidden world after a violent and unexplained incident claims the lives of those around him. In the process, he demonstrates a rare ability—not only to perceive what others cannot, but to interact with it. His survival draws the attention of a covert government organization tasked with managing supernatural threats. As he is pulled into their world, John begins to understand that what he experienced was only the beginning. A radical faction is working toward a far greater objective: to reshape humanity by force. Their plan is to summon the King of Demons, Bael—a being that cannot enter the world without first bringing forth the four ancient Kings of the Cardinal Directions. As the boundary between the hidden and the known begins to collapse, John finds himself caught in a growing conflict between control and destruction, with a role he does not yet fully understand.

Plants vs Dungeon

When dungeon gates opened across the world, it became a gold rush. Hunters chased glory. Guilds chased power. Corporations chased profit. Phong Tran awakened as a Level 1 Farmer. No skills. No passives. A broken EXP bar that never moved. So he sold energy drinks instead. Leg warmers. Electrolytes. Power banks. If everyone else was digging for gold, he’d sell the shovels. Then Josh came. University golden boy. Gym-built. Son of a man who could erase problems with a phone call. “Protection fee.” Phong refused. He woke up in a hospital bed, beaten within an inch of death. His aunt and uncle were gone. No bodies. No investigation. No media coverage. Just silence. Then, as if the universe had a sense of humor, his system finally gave him a quest: Plant and harvest 10 potatoes in the dungeon. That’s it. No penalties. No forced missions. No ticking clock. No promise of justice. Just a choice. Phong takes it. The potatoes mutate. Then other plants followed. Chilies spit burning rounds. Sweet potatoes bulk up into blunt-force bruisers. Garlic turns chemical-warfare illegal. Enoki mushrooms rattle like dungeon-grade machine guns. His crops become his frontline. Phong doesn’t want to conquer the dungeon. He wants to build something inside it. A farm. A hearth. A settlement for people tired of being disposable. He won’t let revenge be the only thing he grows. Revenge lit the spark. But it won’t be the only thing he grows. And if the most powerful man in the city comes looking to finish what his son started... He’ll learn something the dungeon already knows. This farm fights back.
