The Devil's Fruit

The War of Saints and Sorrows ended in fire. The angels bled. The demons broke. The greatest warlock to ever walk the earth—Asmodai—was cast into the pit beneath the world, sealed behind seven burning veils by the blades of the Seraphim. He should have died. But monsters like him don’t die. They wait. And while the world rebuilt, thinking the nightmare ended, something slipped through the cracks. Something small. Something alive. Years later, far from the ruined altars and cursed battlegrounds, a boy named Reika is found—untouched, uncrying, in the middle of a battlefield soaked in blood and ash. No wound on him. Not a single burn. Just dark eyes, and the silence of something watching the world from behind them. Taken in by a weary exorcist, Reika is raised in secret. Kept hidden. Taught to suppress the fire pulsing beneath his skin. The war is over, but the hatred is not—and those who once fought the Devil’s war would gladly end the Devil’s blood. But you cannot hide a fire forever. A spark ignites. A seal breaks. And far below the world, Asmodai opens his eyes. The world thought it won. But the Devil left behind a fruit. And now it grows.

BLACK CONTRACT CITY

BLACK CONTRACT CITY "In a city where the sun never shines, power is not a gift—it is a debt paid with the fragments of your soul." SETTING: The world is contained within a nameless, vertical megacity known as the "Tiered City." At the bottom lies the Underveil—a rusted, suffocating labyrinth of slums, oily rain, and "Hollows" who have been drained of their essence. Above them sits The Grid, a neon-lit battleground of syndicates and mercenaries. At the very peak lies The Crown, where the elite rule through ancient sorcery and demonic pacts, shielded by a massive concrete sky called "The Line." PROTAGONIST: Asher Noctier is a ghost in the machinery. A survivor of a forgotten massacre, he lives in the shadows of the Underveil, tethered to a chilling entity named Velzar—a demon child who offers protection but demands a terrifying price. Asher is the only one who perceives the "Interface," a translucent, flickering HUD that maps the world’s decay and grants him forbidden abilities. THE POWER SYSTEM (THE VOID’S TAX): There is no free power in Black Contract City. To use his demonic abilities or the Interface's functions, Asher must pay the "Void’s Tax." Every victory costs him: a precious childhood memory, a sensory faculty, or hours of his remaining life expectancy. As Asher grows stronger, he becomes more hollow, literally burning his humanity to fuel his ascent. THE CONFLICT: Driven by a cold need for truth and a hidden locket that anchors his past, Asher begins an impossible climb from the mud of the Underveil to the spires of The Crown. Along the way, he assembles a crew of broken outcasts—a feral warrior, a shadow-weaving captain, and a nihilistic engineer—each bound by their own dark contracts. THE CENTRAL QUESTION: As the Interface slowly consumes his mind and the city descends into chaos, Asher faces a brutal realization: If the world is corrupt at its very roots, can you save it without becoming the very monster you sought to destroy? To reach the top and reclaim his life, Asher must decide how much of himself he is willing to lose before there is nothing left to save. "BLACK CONTRACT CITY" is a dark, psychological action epic about the cost of ambition, the weight of memory, and the thin, bloody line between a savior and a demon.
