survival

For thousands of years, the world had no power. Humans lived ordinary lives—working, aging, dying—until one day…year 2026 the gates appeared around the world They came in two colors. And with them, two fates. Green Gates—mysterious portals leading to an endless forest, a world so vast that even if the entire Earth were placed inside it, it would feel no more than a drop in an endless sea. Those who entered and survived awakened powers, talents, and abilities. They learned how to fight. How to adapt. How to dominate. Red Gates—portals of absolute death. Every time a red gate reset, millions of monsters poured into the world, bringing destruction and slaughter. Cities fell. Civilizations burned. Only the strong survived. The weak were erased. Through centuries of blood and struggle, humanity changed. Survival became a way of life. Strength became law. And power became everything. In the year 2230, near one of the Green Gates, a small baby was discovered. His parents lay dead beside him. Their bodies told a clear story—they had done everything they could to protect him until the very end. Not a single wound marked the child. An adventurer passing through the area found the baby… and took him away. Year 2245. It had been fifteen years since the child was found beside the Green Gate. The Adventurer Guild raised him, gave him a name, and a place in this cruel world. Shinsuke Seiya. Today, Seiya turned fifteen. And today was the day of his awakening. after Turing 15, every human had to pass through the Green Gate—a chance to awaken a talent exclusive to them and change their fate Like the other boys and girls his age, Seiya was excited. Nervous. Hopeful with others He stepped forward into the gate. The moment Seiya crossed the Green Gate— The world froze. The sky darkened. The forest fell silent. Even the gate itself trembled. And then— SYSTEM ERROR ERROR… ERROR… UNKNOWN BLOODLINE DETECTED ABNORMAL AWAKENING IN PROGRESS Seiya’s vision went black. A final message burned itself into his consciousness: Host has awakened SSS+ Rank Talent 【Chaos Heir】

Reborn into House Mormont on bleak Bear Island, Edric carries memories of another life—memories that grant him unusual endurance, discipline, and an instinct for preparation rather than conquest. In a land ruled by tradition and watchful lords, he is constrained by family, Northern authority, and institutions far larger than himself. His knowledge fades over time, preserved only in fragmentary journals, and every improvement he introduces—safer convoys, stricter drills, better accounting—draws attention he cannot fully control. When war comes to the western coast and later engulfs the realm, Edric learns that readiness only softens disaster. Battles hinge on supplies, alliances fracture, and victories arrive stripped of celebration. A notorious betrayal is blunted but not erased, the North survives at terrible cost, and the uneasy aftermath brings new pressures from the Crown, quiet negotiations, and limits imposed on how much power any one house may wield. Then winter deepens into something far worse. Systems strain, armies falter, and survival depends on choices made long before anyone understood what was coming. Legends prove unreliable, songs change their tune, and the work that endures is rarely seen. The Bear of the North is not the story of a throne claimed—but of something colder, harder, and more uncertain: what it takes to keep a world standing when everything else begins to fail.

Lucian Oakheart is a man caught between two worlds. In one, he remembers soaring glass towers and the metallic roar of machines. In the other, he is the fragile youngest son of a noble house in the steampunk empire of Alveris, where "peace" is a warm loaf of bread and "stars" are hopes stitched into silence. But Lucian's rebirth is far from a fairy tale. Beneath the veneer of candlelit halls and his siblings’ fierce protection, a darkness is coiling. While his family sees a recovering boy with a mischievous smile, Lucian sees the truth: a formless shadow clinging to his doctor, and a gnawing hunger in his own chest that no food can satisfy. Labeled a "Cursed One" by whispers in the dark, Lucian must navigate a world of steam and secrets. With a knife hidden beneath his pillow and a soul that is slowly awakening to a terrifying power, he must discover the secret of the Inkless Codex before the shadows he sees decide to stop watching and start feeding.

A horror game feared worldwide becomes "Lin Yu’s new reality" but the real nightmare isn’t the monsters. It’s the truth that the game’s deadliest bosses are his neighbors. The Blood Clan Queen? A freeloading, pint-sized terror who raids his fridge like she owns the place. The hospital director who wipes entire squads? A cheerful matchmaking grandpa downstairs, handing out “romantic advice” like it’s a daily quest. The blood-soaked butcher? A shy, soft-spoken girl upstairs… who politely greets him while her weapon drips red. To everyone else, this world is a slaughterhouse of screams, curses, and impossible boss fights. To Lin Yu, it’s awkward hallway encounters, surprise dinner guests, and trying not to offend beings that can erase a player’s existence with one glance. But the deeper Lin Yu gets pulled into the game, the stranger things become because while players are desperate to escape, the bosses aren’t trying to kill him… They’re watching him. Avoiding him. Even fearing him. And Lin Yu is about to learn the most terrifying rule of all: in this world, "he might be the only one who doesn’t know what he really is."

!!!! A dark psychological novel where mind games, risk, and human weakness collide, wrapped in a shōnen-style rise from nothing to the top !!! Ren Takahashi is an 18-year-old high school student living in Tokyo, trapped between two crushing realities: an uncertain future and a present that is slowly collapsing. A senior in his final year of high school, unemployed and without any practical skills, Ren survives on the small amount of money left behind by his deceased father. His mother—the only person giving meaning to his struggle—is permanently hospitalized, kept alive by medical machines. Every day is a countdown of bills, limited time, and relentless pressure. After countless failed attempts to find a job, Ren receives a mysterious invitation: a nationwide poker tournament, spanning all of Japan. This is no ordinary competition. It is a brutal selection process where only the coldest, most calculated, and most dangerous players can advance. Lose once—you’re eliminated. Make one mistake—you cease to exist. As Ren enters the tournament, he quickly realizes that poker is no longer about cards. It is about ego, control, and psychological destruction. Each round becomes a battle of wills, every opponent a monster shaped by trauma, obsession, and ruthless methods. Here, players are not gambling for money—they are gambling for identity. Yet with every victory, Ren drifts further away from the boy he once was. With every successful bluff, he begins to question whether he is still playing to survive… or playing to dominate.

Five hundred years ago, the spiritual energy of Blue Star suddenly revived, and all of humanity gained the chance to awaken supernatural abilities. Some awakened elemental powers—able to ignite oceans with a single flame, or submerge cities with a wave of the hand. Others awakened physical abilities, capable of shattering mountains, splitting the earth with one punch, and moving as fast as lightning. There were those who awakened materialization abilities, summoning thousands of weapons at will, and those who awakened beast transformation powers, able to turn into towering dragons with a single thought. Su Ke transmigrated from a peaceful world. With nothing but a broken watch in his possession, he steps into this new era and begins to stir a storm that will shake the world

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment — tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena’s gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings. When her deception is exposed, Elena’s world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans — pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries. From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena’s journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances — a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it. But as the hunt closes in and a single map — older than any empire — threatens to upend the order of the world, Elena must face an impossible choice. To protect what she loves, she may have to destroy everything she once believed about truth, power, and the very shape of the Earth. Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Cartographer’s Heresy is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world — they define it — and how one woman dares to redraw its lines.

"I am not one person. I am a bridge of broken glass." To the world, Lin Yan is a hollow vessel—the "Idiot" son of a fallen dynasty, married to the ruthless CEO Lu Jingho. For twenty years, he hasn't uttered a word, his skin recoiling from every touch as if it were a brand of fire. But inside the silent tomb of his mind, a war is screaming. When a fatal accident at age six tore his soul in two, one half stayed to rot in a world of shadows, while the other was cast into a neon-hell of the future. There, he was "The Architect," a legendary hacker forged in the fires of 21st-century torture and digital isolation. Now, the two souls have been slammed back together.Lin Yan has returned with the power to rewrite reality, but his mind is a jagged landscape of psychological trauma, where the ghosts of his future agony haunt his every breath. He thinks he is suffering in secret. He believes he is a ghost protecting his family from the shadows. He is wrong. Unbeknownst to him, the "Origin Code" in his blood is broadcasting his every heartbeat, every traumatic flashback, and every silent plea for help directly into the minds of the Lu family. As Lin Yan wages a cynical, invisible war against the "Ravens" who stole his father, Lu Jingho is forced to listen to the soul-shattering symphony of his husband's pain. In a world where his only comfort is the "Refrigerator"—the cold, steady presence of a husband he thinks he’s fooling—Lin Yan must face the ultimate terror: What happens when the man who cannot be touched finds out his whole world can hear his heart breaking?

He watches her, questions her, and—worst of all—starts acting like he actually cares. Lavinia just wanted a quiet villainess retirement… So why does everything keep changing?

The System called it the Zombie Apocalypse. Humanity calls it hell. Leo calls it home. Granted the seemingly useless [Peaceful Farmer] class, Leo watches the world end from the one place the horror cannot touch: his ten-acre farm. His power suppresses all aggression, turning S-Rank city-killers into docile scenery and mindless zombie lords into free field labor. While bunkers starve, he harvests prize-winning tomatoes. While warlords fight, he teaches his zombie ‘crew’ how to weed. His greatest concern is the crows, not the corpses. But Leo’s enforced paradise shatters when the sound of desperate gunfire and human screams breaches his tranquil border. A squad of survivors, led by the battle-hardened General Astra, is being hunted by a mutated horror—and his farm is their only refuge. To them, Leo is a savior, a lunatic, or a resource. To the intelligent Dead Kings watching from the forest, he is an anomaly that must be consumed. Now, Leo must defend his land not just from the relentless dead, but from the desperate living who covet his sanctuary. Can a man who has sworn to only nurture life protect his harvest from the entire hungry apocalypse? The first seeds of a new empire are sown not with a sword, but with a plow—and the fertilizer is blood.

He was banished. She was forced. Neither expected to find each other. Years ago, the Alpha's eldest son was framed and cast out as a traitor, left to survive as a rogue with nothing but rage in his veins. Now, he's back. Elara never wanted to marry anyone against her wish. Nor the rogue's younger brother. But her family's debts left her no choice. Until the day the rogue returned. As secrets unravel, hatred surfaced, and forbidden sparks ignite, she's torn between duty to her family and the bond tugging her heart. And the rogue, he's ready to burn the kingdom down and claim what's his.

Dr. Aris Thorne didn't get summoned to another world for epic battles. He was recruited for his expertise in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. His new office is in the Gothic opulence of the Demon King's Castle, and his clients are the Seven Deadly Sin Lords—apocalyptic beings whose unchecked trauma is causing magical leakage that unravels reality itself. With zero combat power and a chain-smoking habit, Aris must conduct fifty-minute sessions with genocidal maniacs. His first patient is Lord Gorn, the Embodiment of Wrath, an eight-foot-tall mountain of fury who expresses resistance by exploding doors. The goal isn't to defeat him in battle, but to navigate his volcanic rage and touch the ancient grief over a lost companion that fuels it. The cost of success? Aris's "Absolute Empathy" forces him to absorb fragments of his patients' world-shattering trauma. As he survives each session, a new danger emerges: the obsessive curiosity of the other Sin Lords. Lady Envy monitors his every move, demanding equal attention. Aris isn't just a therapist; he's the fragile, human anchor for beings who could erase nations in a fit of pique. Can this weary psychologist contain the apocalypse one breakthrough at a time, or will the very hearts he mends consume him? The cure for the world's end isn't a hero's blade—it's a notepad, a listening ear, and the courage to face the monsters within.

His plan is simple, efficient, and cruel: eliminate her before she breaks. This time, fate glitches. A catastrophic Soul Bind irrevocably chains him to his target. Her pain is his pain. Her humiliation burns his cheek. Their heartbeats echo in one another’s chest, and to be apart is to grow dangerously weak.

Forced into a political marriage by those who see them as weapons, the world’s would-be savior and its destined destroyer now share a bed, a battlefield, and a single, fraying thread of fate. They must whisper strategies through fake-loving smiles at court, hold hands to unleash magic that can shatter armies, and kiss to transfer lethal mana—all while plotting each other’s demise. My War Partner is My Fated Enemy is a story where every moment of closeness is a tactical maneuver, every shared sensation a vulnerability, and the greatest threat to their world may not be the looming war, but the terrifying, intimate understanding growing between two souls who were never meant to coexist.
