Shadow Contract

Some contracts are written in ink. His was written in blood and he never signed it. Dante Kōgetsu is the best at what he does. No target too difficult. No contract refused. No emotion wasted. He built his reputation on one principle: finish the job and walk away clean. Then a contract arrived with a photograph inside. Her face. Sophie Arisaka. The only person who ever made him feel like a human being rather than a weapon. He faked her death, lied to the client, and told himself it was a calculated decision. It was not. Now he is hunting the anonymous man who ordered her death and every step closer reveals a truth he is not ready for. The man behind the contract is Edward Yashiro. His oldest friend. A person who loved Sophie, lost her, and let that loss rot into something unrecognizable. What Dante does not know yet is that Edward knows everything. The demons Dante carries inside him Kairo and Mūn were not accidents. They were placed there deliberately, by someone who chose him before he was old enough to refuse. And every time Dante uses their power, he pays a price no one warned him about. He loses her. Not Sophie herself. The memories of her. One by one. Quietly. Irreversibly. The job was supposed to be simple. It became a war against an old friend, against the man who made him, and against the clock running silently inside his own mind. Some things cannot be unforgiven. Some prices cannot be unpaid. Some contracts were never meant to end.

I became so good at Deepwoken that i started parrying in real life too

Gun Seren spent the last two years of his life mastering one thing: Deepwoken. Five thousand hours. Hundreds of wiped characters. Thousands of fights in the Depths. Among the chaos of monsters and drowned horrors, his Vantablack Godseeker build, Drake Eshet, had finally become perfect. Gun didn’t just play the game. He lived it. But in the middle of another night of Depths ganking, the world freezes. His internet dies. And a message appears on his screen: “The Towers Have Appeared.” Across Earth, colossal towers pierce the sky on every continent, bringing with them a mysterious system of Nexuses, Classes, and Floors filled with monsters. Humanity is forced into a new era where the only path forward is to climb, grow stronger, and survive. Gun doesn’t care. He just wants to log back in. But when he reconnects, his character—his two years of work, memories, and victories—is completely wiped. His perfect build is gone. And the towers appeared at the exact moment it happened. To Gun, that means only one thing. The towers stole Drake Eshet. Now he’s going to take everything from them. As the world begins testing people to awaken their Nexuses and Classes, Gun enters the system with one advantage nobody else has: the instincts of someone who has already spent thousands of hours surviving brutal combat. While others rely on their powers, Gun relies on something far more dangerous. Perfect timing. Parries. Reaction speed. Combat instincts honed in the merciless Depths. In the American Tower, where climbers struggle to survive even the first floors, a new name begins spreading among the hunters and monsters alike: A climber who treats life-and-death battles like PvP. A fighter who wins without flashy abilities. A player who climbs the tower the same way he dominated the Depths. And this time, when Gun Seren reaches the top… he isn’t stopping until the towers themselves are wiped.

The Anti-Villain. King

In a world where WWIII never ended and "heroes" traffic NovaBreeds for profit, the Renegades' leader gets his hands dirty. 2079: Nukes vanished in '83. Humanity blamed superpowered NovaBreeds—people born with extraordinary abilities—then enslaved them. Governments buy kids as weapons. Corporate heroes pose for cameras while the Big Boys orchestrate the largest auction yet: hundreds of lives sold to the highest bidder. Enter Lucius D. King: rogue NovaBreed master of hydro-manipulation, fresh off dominating the Big Boys' underground tournament—the very traffickers he's vowed to destroy. Now leading the Renegades from the shadows, he launches his infiltration: tear them apart from within, auction first. But lines blur. Heroes hunt him. Traitors lurk. Saving innocents demands killing "untouchables"—becoming the monster everyone fears. The heroes say killing is always wrong. Lucius disagrees. Evil exists that cannot be reformed, only eliminated. Mercy has limits. Justice demands consequences. The villains say only power matters. Lucius disagrees. Power without purpose is just destruction. Strength without conviction is meaningless chaos. The system says anyone outside the law is a criminal. Lucius disagrees. When the law serves corruption, when justice is bought and sold, when the innocent suffer while the powerful profit—then the law itself becomes the crime. There's a space between these absolutes. A gray area where the desperate operate. Where people do what's necessary while everyone else debates philosophy. Where hard choices get made, and the burden falls on those willing to carry it. Because sometimes, the world doesn't need saving. It needs someone willing to burn down the parts that are rotten. Updates: Wednesday and Saturday

Any resemblance to real names, places, or events is coincidental. This is an extremely fast-paced novel, and the protagonist becomes absurdly overpowered. He is not the usual “hero complex” type. The villain and antihero tags are not for show. If you are looking for a “goody-two-shoes” protagonist, this novel is not for you. Kailen is a morally grey character. He makes decisions that those interested in hero complex protagonists may not find pleasant. Note for Readers (Please do not skip): Early on, Kailen awakens with a shadow affinity. Yes—it may remind you of popular works you've read… but this is only the beginning. As the story progresses, he will unlock and master multiple affinities. The shadow affinity is a nod to some of my favorite novels, but the journey, characters, and world are entirely my own. Join the Community: Care to interact with me and other readers?

In the World of Detective Conan with a Choice System

Transmigrating into a nightmare is one thing; waking up as the prime suspect in a "locked-room" murder is another. When Akikawa Kosuke opens his eyes, he isn't in a hospital or a peaceful new world. He is trapped inside a sealed, crashed boxcar, his body leaden and his mind reeling from carbon monoxide poisoning. Slumped over him is a woman, gruesomely stabbed to death—and his own hand is still clutching the hilt of the murder weapon. With police sirens wailing in the distance and a mysterious "Option System" flickering before his eyes, Kosuke realizes he has seconds to act. He has no memory of the original owner’s life or whether he is truly a killer, but he knows one thing: if the police find him like this, his new life ends before it begins. A desperate race against logic and evidence begins. In a chilling display of resolve, Kosuke uses his medical knowledge to systematically destroy the evidence against him. To sever his connection to the weapon and the crime, he must go to extreme lengths—even if it means deliberately shattering his own bones to create a physical impossibility. But as the doors are forced open, Kosuke discovers he isn't just facing the local police. He has transmigrated into a world where the "Death God Elementary School Student" exists. Under the piercing gaze of the world's most famous detectives, can Kosuke maintain his innocence, or will his own cover-up become his undoing? What to expect: Mc who will break his own body to manipulate a crime scene. High-stakes decisions that grant skills, traits, and survival. Prove your innocence when you are caught red-handed in a locked room. This is only a translation. Here is the original source: 人在柯南,有脑内选项系统
