In the history of the Infection, the hunger is absolute. Once the virus takes hold, the human is gone. Or so they thought. When the walls fell and the city was overrun, Dante died fighting. Infected and cornered, with the virus screaming at him to devour his own sister, he did the impossible, he defied the virus. He chose death over the hunger, his heart bursting from the sheer strain of defying his own biology. Dante wakes up three days later with cold gray skin, black eyes, and a System that refuses to let him rest. He is a Divergent, a glitch in the biological code, possessing the body of a monster but the soul of a man. Dante isn’t a hero. He isn’t here to rescue the survivors or reclaim the city for humanity. In a cruel world where humans want to dissect him and zombies want to consume him, he realizes that survival isn't enough. Mercy is a weakness and power is the only law. ​From the shadows, he begins to build an unholy Kingdom of Wire-Walkers, an army of the dead bound to his will. He will burn the world down if that’s what it takes to keep his freedom. Because he refused to let his humanity die, his existence has split. He now wields Two Soul Cores, granting him dominion over two catastrophic abilities instead of the usual one. But great power comes with a great price. ​[ANOMALY DETECTED: SYMPATHETIC AGONY] To cut flesh is to feel the wound. To kill is to die. Every limb he severs, he feels the pain of the severed limb. Every life he snuffs out forces him to relive the victim's final, crushing terror. ​It is the ultimate check on his cruelty. Dante must become the King of the Living and the Dead to save the only family he has left. But to win the war, he will have to endure the agony of a thousand deaths.

Kael lived in the most backwater city on the least powerful continent. Life felt mundane and sad, as his family struggled to make ends meet. Yet just when Kael was questioning his life at the topmost floor of his school, reality, or perhaps fate, finally responded. A crack opened high in the sky, and mana cascaded from its depths. People awakened. And the apocalypse descended. Those who failed to awaken became zombies. But they were no ordinary undead. They were stronger, faster, and more primal than those shown in movies. Most importantly, they could use the abilities they received in their failed awakening. A zombie snarled in hunger, saliva drifting down the sides of its mouth as it moved with inhuman speed, flames bursting from beneath its foot, turning its body into a crimson blur. In this spine-chilling apocalypse, Kael awakened with a primordial class—one that granted him a unique energy, ENERGI. While others use mana to cast skills, Kael could use ENERGI to do more. 1 unit of ENERGi could boost any stat by 2 points for a duration of 10 seconds. He could also cast his skills with ENERGI. And most importantly, with ENERGI, he could directly manipulate laws. And that was only the beginning! Of course, that was not all the system offered. To this enigmatic but cosmic system, ACHIEVEMENT was everything. The more impossible feats a player accomplish, the more achievement points will be rewarded, with soulbound item drops as side rewards. With enough achievement points, even a common-class player could evolve to the primordial tier. But what about Kael, who started with the highest possible class? ***** AN: Chapters will be published by 1:00 PM UTC daily.

Fifty years ago, rifts appeared in the world. These rifts spewed spirit beasts, ancient artifacts, and fragments of lost civilizations. The human race brought forth Talent Sigils and built guilds and families for survival. These families include one of the oldest awakened bloodlines, known as "The Long Clan," said to trace its lineage from the dragons of antiquity. However, rivalries also exist within great clans. His name is Long Hao, the son of a dwindling lineage family who is ridiculed for being the embarrassment of the clan. It is not impossible for people to believe that he has only mediocre talent because the clan already labels him as the failure who does not deserve the name dragon. But on the night before the awakening ceremony, there is a prohibited awakening within him. > [Eclipse System… Activating [Forbidden Talent Detected. Origin: Dragon-Eclipse Bloodline It seems that *Heaven’s Law* itself has made Long Hao wields forbidden talent, a skill feared not only by humans but also by the heavens. The day that follows, the Awakening Stone has no talent, and the world laughs at him. But Long Hao just smiled. When the first dungeon appears out of nowhere in his high school, chaos breaks out. "The trash of the Long Clan" emerges and displays power that shocks the city. He will overcome his destiny. Above the guilds. Above ancient clans. Beyond God's own command. A dragon ought to fly across the nine heavens, and he, named Long Hao, shall smash those who come to get in his way. A dragon should soar across the nine heavens— and Long Hao will shatter anyone who dares stand in his path.

It is said that a child finds comfort only in their home — their Sanctuary, the only place where they feel safe, loved, and at peace. This is the case for many children, even adults. But unfortunately, It was destined that I would not be one of them. In my own home. Among my family. With the mother who gave birth to me and the siblings who came from the same womb. I have never, not even for one day, felt love or comfort there. My sisters are ashamed of me. My younger brother does not respect me. And my mother? She is the harshest of all. Since I was a child, she has not loved me, cannot stand to see me, and scolds me whenever she does. As I grew up, I became nothing but the family’s disgrace — a moving money box for my mother and my little brother. How many times have I thought about ending my life? How many times have I thought about giving up on this miserable life? People may think I am too dramatic, but — If you have not burned yourself on live coals, how can you feel their heat? No one in this world will ever understand me. But that’s all right. Because I did not give up. Not because I am strong. Not because I am holding on to life. But because of one person. Except this person was not human. Not an animal. Not even a ghost. This person is the final villain in my favorite novel. Years spent following him, reading everything that happened to him. Years spent accompanying him. His existence became my world — my only world. I love him. I adore him. Even if he is not real. Even if he is only a man of paper and ink. I am willing to do anything for him. I would die for him. And then the gods granted me my only wish... Now, I am in his world. And this time, I will save him. Yes, I will do the impossible to save him. I will kill for him and die for him. So, Cassel… This is how madly I love you. How much I am obsessed with you. I am ready to destroy myself and the whole world for you.  ... So, can you look at me?

Three hundred thousand years ago, Homer didn't just see the future—he built it. As the inventor of the Atmospheric Nanite Network, he cracked the code to immortality and matter programming. He intended to save humanity from itself. ​Instead, the corporate elite framed him for a crime he didn’t commit, sentenced him to eternal cryo-sleep, and used his invention to burn the world down. ​Now, the ice has finally cracked. ​Homer wakes up to a world that has forgotten the machine. The skyscrapers are dust, replaced by the towering forests of the Verdant Expanse. The corporate board has been replaced by the "High Council" of immortal Elves who rule with benevolence and grace. They wield "Mana" to protect the weak from the terrifying "Demons" of the frozen north. ​To anyone else, it’s a fantasy paradise. But to Homer, looking through his silver synthetic eye, it’s a glitch. ​He sees the truth: ​The "Mana" is just his nanites, mutated and running on legacy code. ​The "Elves" are the descendants of the corrupt officials who locked him away. ​The "Demons" are the only ones running military-grade hardware—his hardware. ​With his AI companion Castor trying to keep him sane and an Administrator Interface that treats reality like a command line, Homer must navigate a world built on lies. The "Gods" of this age are afraid of the one man who can turn their magic off. ​The Architect is awake. And he wants his world back.

[You have chosen as a Lord! By the SSS Ranked Cosmic Policing System!] [Congratulations! Host had been rewarded with Mythic Assault Rifle: AK117 Gothic Slayer!] [Congratulations! Host has received Mythic Carriage: Hell Scape Police Cruiser!] [Congratulations! Host has received Mythic Sniper: DL Q33 Nether Devils Kiss!] Roy Vanders died in the line of duty. He woke up as one of Earth’s chosen Lords. Others got castles, fortresses, and floating islands. He got… a run-down police outpost. With the SSS Cosmic Policing System in hand, he must recruit, train, and expand his force before the three-year planetary shield falls and the predators of Acrana descend. Corrupt heroes? Arrested. Slick villains? Arrested. Gods, monsters, and other Lords? They’d better pray they’re not breaking the law. In a world where power is everything, he’s about to prove that justice still has teeth. ... A figure clung tightly to his cell bars, screaming, “How dare you guys put me here!” “What sort of nonsense is this? Do you know who I am? I am Zotz, the level 91 Lord of Tier 7 territory — Hellscape!” “Do you think these fragile bars can hold me?” Zotz yelled furiously, attempting to pull the bars apart. Suddenly, a voice came from the cell beside him. “I wouldn’t do that if I were you…” “Who dares—” Zotz’s words choked in his throat as the owner of the voice stepped into view. “Y-you’re Gunther… the Devil-Slaying Knight!” he stuttered in shock. How could such a being end up here? Scratch that—who dared claim they could cage a man who had long surpassed mortality and stepped past level 100? Seeing the question and terror in his eyes, Gunther shrugged. “I was caught human trafficking and arrested,” he said nonchalantly. “W-what? Arrested?” Zotz muttered in disbelief. Since humans ascended to Acrana, the words arrest and police had long lost their meaning. From the other side, another voice broke the silence. “I was arrested because my mount was moving too fast in what was dubbed a civilian zone.” "Tch! the bastard fined me with a speeding ticket of six million gold and i couldn't pay on time... and i ended up here." “Oh my god! Asterion the Devil Rider!” Zotz saw the speaker and clamored in shock. Suddenly, he didn’t feel so rebellious anymore… If such figures could be caged here helplessly, then who was he? -------- This novel contains R-18 elements and occasional smut, but all scenes are plot-driven rather than filler. Mature themes will appear sparingly and in service of the story. Reader discretion is advised.
