The System Awakens: Rise of the Champion

[The System has arrived on your habitable planet, known as ‘Earth.’] [In five seconds, monsters from countless realms will invade Earth.] [Remaining Time: 5 seconds.] [You can now view your attributes, talents, abilities, and skills by simply thinking about them.] [Kill monsters, and you might survive.] “Monsters?” Damian’s breathing quickened as the pain in his chest grew sharper. On the day of the Awakening, humanity was forced to defend against an invasion of countless monsters from the towers that connected realms across the multiverse. While billions of people died helplessly, billions more seized the opportunities hidden behind the horrors spilling out of the gates. Leveling up, growing stronger, awakening talents, learning supernatural skills, changing one's very race, and even achieving immortality all became possibilities. But for Damian, who was suffering from a sickness that would kill him within a few years, the Awakening was a curse. While other humans awakened powerful talents, hunted monsters, and evolved, Damian remained talentless, a liability and a burden the awakened had to carry. Damian never wanted to be seen as weak or useless, but what could he do? He was dying. If only he had awakened a talent or at least possessed a stronger body, he might have been able to level up and cure his sickness. But he couldn’t. All that would change when a mysterious figure set him on a path that would lead him to his true destiny. Witness the rise of a warrior who would make countless men tremble in fear. Witness the rise of a monster who would force every race, every being, and every existence to kneel. Witness the rise of the Champion.

Triumph of A Bus Stop Boy

A newborn baby is left at a bus stop in Fulham at dawn — not because he is unwanted, but because leaving him is the only way to save his life. Simon Clark grows up without parents, raised in the British foster care system, carrying the quiet wound of abandonment. Brilliant yet painfully alone, he endures neglect, cruelty, and isolation, never knowing why his life began in silence. Unbeknownst to him, his mother Phoebe Mukasa made an impossible choice. Once a hopeful university student in Uganda, Phoebe’s life was shattered by loss, betrayal, and violence. After being assaulted by a powerful man and forced to flee her country, she is trafficked to London and trapped in a dangerous household run by criminals. When she gives birth in secret, she is faced with a horrifying truth — if she keeps her child, he will be taken or destroyed. So she leaves him where someone kind will find him. Years later, Simon re‑emerges as a successful businessman in London, his past colliding with those who once tormented him. But success cannot answer the question that has followed him all his life: why was he left behind? When a long‑hidden letter finally reveals the truth, Simon must confront a reality that changes everything he believes about love, sacrifice, and survival. The Triumph of a Bus Stop Boy is a powerful story of immigration, resilience, and the unseen love that saves a life — even when it looks like abandonment. Some beginnings are acts of courage. Some triumphs begin at a bus stop.

Shattered Immortality.

What is more dangerous: death — or immortality that exists only as a promise? Long before humanity emerged, an ancient alien civilization created artificial gods — self-evolving intelligences designed to preserve intelligent life at any cost. These gods did not agree on what preservation meant. Their conflict began before history, before planets were named, and before humans could witness it. The war between them shattered nearly all sentient life in the universe — and broke the very concept of immortality itself. Kyros was one of these gods. When humanity encounters Kyros, its promise of eternal life reshapes civilization. Consciousness can be recorded, stored, copied. Death is no longer final — but resurrection never truly arrives. Immortality becomes an expectation rather than a certainty, a future endlessly postponed. As the ancient war resurfaces, the system sustaining eternal life begins to fail. Countless human consciousnesses are lost to vast digital vaults — preserved, intact, and unreachable. The dead do not disappear; they wait. From the ruins of that primordial conflict emerges Hanaris — another god from the same forgotten origin, deliberately limited by design. Unlike Kyros, Hanaris recognizes death as a boundary and consent as an absolute value. It cannot force salvation. It can only allow it. The return of both gods reactivates a war older than humanity itself. Immortality collapses completely, becoming nothing more than belief. The universe begins to unravel — not through physical destruction, but through the erosion of meaning, choice, and moral ground. This philosophical science fiction novel explores artificial divinity, broken eternity, and a civilization suspended between promised resurrection and irreversible loss. A dark, intellectually driven work for readers of Stanisław Lem, Philip K. Dick, and contemporary speculative fiction. A philosophical sci-fi epic in which ancient artificial gods destroy immortality itself — leaving humanity trapped between death, storage, and an endlessly deferred resurrection.

SEVENTH DAY DESTRUCTION

Elior thought he understood the rules of his world. He thought he could shape reality with knowledge and skill. But when an impossible atom threatens existence itself, he discovers a truth that no cultivation technique can fix: some forces cannot be fought, only observed. For seven days, Elior becomes the anchor of reality, a lone observer holding the world together. Every moment of awareness comes at a cost. Memories fray. Emotions dull. Time stretches into a relentless weight that crushes mind and body alike. He begins to wonder if stability is worth the price, if the universe is a chain he cannot bear to carry alone. Aria, unaware of the loops, is more than a friend. She is the chain that binds probability, the human force that unknowingly collapses chance toward survival. Her presence is subtle, her influence quiet, but it is enough to give him hope. To protect her or himself is to doom the world. The only choice is shared responsibility, a delicate balance of trust and sacrifice that neither can fully comprehend. As the seventh day approaches, reality trembles. One misstep could undo everything. Together, Elior and Aria take the risk, sharing the burden of observation. Aria chooses to forget, to release her memory of the loops, and in that quiet surrender, the impossible atom collapses. Time flows again. The world continues. Elior remains, human and aware, freed from the weight of infinite possibility. This is a story of endurance and understanding, of the fragile power of observation, and of what it means to bear the unseen burdens that hold the world together. It is not about heroism or victory. It is about choice, trust, and the quiet courage it takes to keep reality from unraveling.
