mystery

On the planet Nevera, in a world shaped by centuries of technological advancement and conflict, one family has remained unshaken. The Piao family stands at the center of it all, guarding a legacy passed down through generations. At the heart of that legacy is the World Tree. More than a symbol, it is a living archive. It holds the recorded lives of the Piao bloodline, along with generations of accumulated knowledge, research, and innovation—knowledge drawn from the diaries of those who came before, powerful enough to reshape the world itself. At the center of this legacy stands Angela Piao. Unlike her sisters, Grace Piao, the head of the family, and Angel Piao, who commands its military power, Angela has lived a sheltered life, immersed in technology and far removed from the responsibilities of her bloodline. But that distance cannot last. The outside world is closing in. As pressure rises to access the World Tree and the knowledge it contains, the Piao family faces a turning point they have avoided for generations. For the first time, their control is no longer absolute. And the decision falls to Angela. Not because she wants it. But because she must. Beyond the family’s walls, people like Kael Everwyn, tied to the Piao bloodline yet raised far from it, reveal a truth the family can no longer ignore. Their influence has already spread beyond their control. And the world has begun to notice. It is watching. Waiting. Demanding answers. Caught between preservation and change, secrecy and exposure, Angela must decide whether the World Tree remains protected… or becomes something the entire world can claim. To make that choice, she turns to the past. Through the records within the World Tree, Angela traces the path that led her family here, searching for an answer hidden in history— one that may reveal the truth behind the Tree itself.

Ethan Crowe walked out of prison after seven years with nothing to his name and nowhere to belong. The world he returned to was unrecognisable. Gates had torn open across the globe, monsters roamed beyond human control, and society now revolved around the Titled - people chosen by mysterious voices and granted supernatural powers that made them heroes, weapons, and rulers all at once. Ethan wasn’t one of them. Not at first. Lost, angry, and with no future worth chasing, Ethan was barely surviving when a voice finally spoke to him. "Your Title is… Lord Of Beasts." But something about his awakening was wrong. Instead of gaining power in the real world like every other Titled, Ethan awakened a System tied to the Tower Of Beasts - a brutal, game-like world he can only enter while asleep. Inside the Tower, Ethan must fight for survival against monstrous creatures, earning power through a system of skills, evolution, and beasts. As for the beasts he acquires there? They persist beyond his dreams... Registered as an E Rank Titled with only D Rank potential, Ethan should have been insignificant. Yet the Lord of Beasts cannot be measured by ordinary standards. As Ethan grows stronger at an impossible rate, his existence begins to ripple outward - drawing the attention of elite Titled, criminal syndicates, and forces lurking behind the Gates themselves. His past refuses to stay buried, his beasts grow more dangerous, and the truth behind his Title hints at something far more terrifying than anyone realises. In a world ruled by power, Ethan Crowe starts at the bottom. But as the Lord of Beasts, it’s only a matter of time before he climbs to the top! P.S.

Fantasy with a sci-fi theme In the heart of the void—an abyss of absolute darkness, bitter cold, and a silence that crawls beneath the skin—the emptiness teemed with stars, planets, suns, black holes, and one final human body in all the universe. For an eternity, the body of Sol had drifted through that vast emptiness, fully conscious of the void around him, his form horribly twisted and broken. Until at last, a searing light, warm and brilliant, swept him away and cast him onto a strange world, saving him from that merciless abyss. But what point was there in salvation? Sol had long since lost his will to live. Time and again, he sought to end his own existence, yet the cursed body he inhabited refused to grant him even that release. Then after wandering for a time without purpose or destination, at the most strange of moments, something appeared before him—something that might at last lead him to the answers he had sought through endless ages. Answers concerning the unnatural power bound to this flesh. And perhaps, at long last, a way to sever it forever.

Five Minds of Earth. One World of Magic. Zero Mana. In a single heartbeat, five of Earth’s most extraordinary minds are snatched from their world and dropped into the Kingdom of Eldoria. They were summoned to be the ultimate heroes—the "Prodigies" who would save humanity. But when they stand before the Orb of Revelation, the verdict is a death sentence: Zero Magic. Failure. While the "Class President" is hailed as the true hero, the five specialists are discarded as useless trash, targeted for execution by a king who fears what he cannot quantify.

The Kingdom of Eldoria thinks they are powerless. They are about to find out that when you combine Earth's greatest intellects with a world governed by primitive logic, "magic" is just science that hasn't been conquered yet.
