Morro is a ruthless swordsman who escaped Blackwater—a place where he discovered the true nature of humanity. At nineteen years old, Morro's journey begins in the Monogan clan territory. Behind the mask of a grateful orphan lies a predator who sees the clan as nothing more than a tool. He will climb their ranks, devour their knowledge, exploit their resources, and discard them once they've served their purpose—all to become strong enough to achieve his ultimate ambitions. Yet the world won't make it easy. He'll face enemies stronger, captains smarter, and swordsmen just as ruthless—proving that ambition alone isn't enough.

Luo Yun transmigrates during a sect admission test… into the body of a “waste” with Five-Element Fake Roots—the worst spiritual roots in the world. Mocked, ignored, and one step from elimination, he shocks the sect by instantly shattering the illusion trial, catching the attention of the cold and mysterious Abyssal Mind Peak Lord. Accepted as the sole disciple of a cursed peak built atop a sealed ancient evil, Luo Yun receives only one instruction: “Survive.” But fate gives him a cheat— A Sign-In System that grants powerful rewards depending on the location, Qi density, and ‘vibe’ of the area. With a 1-year cooldown between each sign-in, Luo Yun chooses the only viable path: Create the greatest cultivation cave in the sect. Spirit herb fields, talisman arrays, spirit-gathering formations, weapon refinement, beast nurturing… If he can’t go to treasure lands, he’ll build his own. He thought he would be forgotten. Instead, he becomes the mysterious genius everyone wants to understand… especially a certain cold sword fairy whose gaze seems always locked on him. A quiet, steady rise begins— Not through destiny. Not through talent. But through hard work, cleverness, and the power of his own hands.

In a world destroyed by a great disaster, 16-year-old Ali struggles to stay with his friends and discover the secret behind the disaster

In the year 2147, asuras(demon) have plagued earth suddenly due to some reasons. To fight them, the gods grant divine powers to humans, and academies across empire train teenagers to wield these gifts. Every student has powers — except one. Rudra, a 16-year-old boy, is the only person alive without divine abilities. Mocked, bullied, and treated as a failure, he refuses to give up.

One day, Reiki opened his eyes… only to realize he’d been reborn as a spider. From the moment his egg hatched, he was immediately greeted by a hard reality. His siblings began eating each other! They were f—king cannibals! But Reiki, a former human with intact memories, simply hid in the corner. Because of this, he became the weakest, the smallest, and (according to every spider around him) the strangest. Spider 1: “Oi! What’s he doing now?” Spider 2: “He said… he’s making a house.” Spider 1: “...A what?” While other spiders spun intricate webs, Reiki was busy building a two-storey ‘house’. While others hunted prey, Reiki waited for the primitive humans to drop some food. It didn't take long for every spider in the cave to know him as: “The strange one.” “The lazy one.” “The idiot who doesn't act like a spider.” But even so, this is a story of Reiki—a clueless, soft-hearted spider just trying to survive in his own way… even if everyone else thinks he's crazy.

Marrying Zeath Lupin was a blessing until he ditched Mellow at a family dinner for his pregnant girlfriend. But the actions she took only led to a deadly situation. Something that would end her alongside the life growing within her—a child Zeath doesn’t deserve. She ran for dear life after faking her death. But she was bound to return as Zeath’s only means to an end in disguise. Would he recognize her? Would she accept his apology if he ever gave one? And what happened when the threat she once fled from rekindled, endangering her and her child’s lives once more? ~ “Do you know how much I wished you wouldn’t come near me, even... touch me?” Zeath drones on. “All those cuddles, kisses, and affection? They all made my skin crawl—like a troll embracing its victim before gobbling them. One can only imagine how much it stinks. You’re no different. You merely caught my attention because you were a self-absorbed twonk, and we needed to test if you even had the heart to love another.” “We?” I croak out. Then Zeath’s fingers trail gently along my face, his eyes glinting with pure poison, and his voice no better. “Poor Mellow, it’s all a dare, a gratifying one. Divorce or not, it’s your choice.”

Rio Valdes died on the pitch during the National Selection. Then, he woke up with a timer counting down to his death and a devil’s bargain: Trade his remaining life for legendary soccer skills. Born in the slums of Jakarta, Rio Valdes possessed the vision of a hawk but the heart of a dying patient. Diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), his football career ended the moment his heart stopped beating during the most important match of his life. But death was merely the kickoff. Visited by a ghostly mentor named Specter, Rio is given a second chance via the "Soul Ball System." The rules are simple, brutal, and absolute: Win a Match: +7 Days of Life. Score a Goal: +2 Days of Life. Lose a Match: -30 Days of Life. With a broken engine in his chest and a countdown timer in his vision, Rio must force his way into the U-20 National Team. He isn't playing for trophies, fame, or patriotism. He is playing to buy his next sunrise. Armed with purchased skills like [Lightning Stride] and [Vulture's Eye], Rio must navigate corrupt scouts, hostile captains, and the physical limitations of an F-Rank body. Can he conquer the World Cup and find the legendary cure, or will the final whistle blow on his life before he reaches the top? "You have 89 days left, kid," the ghost whispered, smoke curling from his spectral cigar. Rio looked at the floating blue screen. The numbers were ticking down, second by second. "And if I lose the next match?" Rio asked, his voice trembling. "Then the system takes the penalty," Specter grinned, revealing gold teeth. "You drop dead on the grass. Game over." Rio clenched his fists, feeling the weak flutter of his heart. "I don't care about the pain. Just give me the contract."
