Symphony Of The Still Earth

Long ago, the earth was a perfect symphony of life, until human greed shattered the fragments of the Aether Stone—the magical core that sustained the world’s rotation. In an instant, time itself seemed to cease its ticking. The world was torn asunder; one half scorched to ashes by a relentless sun, while the other was trapped in an eternal frozen night beneath the shroud of the Blood Red Moon. In the frozen half of the world, every falling snowflake is a tear of regret for those who destroyed the earth. The remnants of humanity now seek refuge behind the Great Wall of PETERUM-MAN, a technological fortress harboring dark secrets behind every hiss of its steam engines. Nugia (Subject 009), an innocent youth, awakens with no memories. He is trained to become an instrument of demise, an emotionless Assassin under the iron fist of Lord Vier. Yet, within his veins pulses a primordial power known as the blue-Azure Sasmita—an anomaly capable of halting the very flow of time. Alongside his comrades in fate, Nugia is ensnared in a vortex of betrayal and horrific human experimentation. As the trails of his past begin to unravel through his mother’s secret recordings, Nugia realizes he is no mere soldier. He is the Heir of Sasmita, the ultimate key to reuniting the nine fragments of the Aether Stone. Will Nugia be able to rewind a dead world? Or will he crumble before the true dawn can ever shine upon the earth once more? "When this symphony is whole, the earth shall turn again. Yet beware, for the sunlight sometimes bears a curse far worse than the darkness."

Devil Covenant

On a storm-soaked night, seventeen-year-old Haruto Shikigami loses everything. His parents are slaughtered before his eyes by a devil born from humanity's fears. Yet when death stands before him, Haruto feels something strange—not fear, not anger, not grief. Nothing. That night changes when he becomes the vessel of the legendary Crimson Devil, a calamity responsible for one of history's bloodiest tragedies. Branded a threat to humanity and hunted by powerful factions, Haruto is taken to the Tokyo Institution of Exorcists, where humans form dangerous covenants with devils to fight back against the darkness. Surrounded by prodigies, monsters, and broken souls, Haruto struggles to control the power sleeping inside him. Alongside his teammates—Shimi Horimiya, a girl haunted by a tragic past and the scars of the Blast Devil, and Yamado Kahanru, an arrogant genius who trusts no one—he is thrust into a world of deadly missions, political conspiracies, and ancient secrets. Guiding them is Adryn, an unpredictable exorcist who possesses multiple devil covenants and hides far more than he reveals. As forgotten massacres resurface, powerful organizations move in the shadows, and the truth behind the Crimson Devil begins to emerge, Haruto discovers a terrifying reality: The greatest devils are not always born from fear. Sometimes they are born from humanity itself. In a world where every covenant demands a price, friendships are tested, families are torn apart, and survival often means sacrificing a part of yourself. The question is not whether Haruto can save the world. It's whether he can save himself before the Crimson Devi completely l consumes his identity

Baby's Thoughts in the Apocalypse Saved the Whole Family

Yunyun is reincarnated into a post-apocalyptic novel with a powerful female protagonist. Unfortunately, she isn’t the heroine. She’s just a minor cannon fodder character… destined to die early. But after awakening memories of the novel, Yunyun accidentally reveals the future through her thoughts— [Mommy, boohoo… your scumbag husband has been cheating on you for years and even has a child with another woman. In the end, they’ll join forces to cripple and torture you to death!] [Uncle, you’ll be betrayed by an ungrateful subordinate and driven out of your own luxurious home, left to freeze to death in the snow!] [Grandpa… Grandma…] In the original story, only her young aunt—the novel’s female lead—survives to the very end, killing her enemies with her own hands… only to live on as something neither fully human nor a ghost. Before they can recover from learning their fates, another thought leaks out— [Sigh, the apocalypse is coming soon. As a three-year-old cannon fodder, can I go offline early? I don't want to suffer through the end of the world…] Looking at the little milk dumpling in their arms, pretending to be silly just so she can laze around… What else can the Bai family do but spoil her? They hoard supplies, renovate and fortify their home, and prepare in advance for the coming apocalypse. Meanwhile, little Yunyun follows her protagonist aunt, accidentally kicking off the base-building plot and helping create a super base where food and clothing are abundant, even in the apocalypse. Step by step, the Bai family rises to power. In the end, Yunyun is dumbfounded: [Wait… wasn't I supposed to be cannon fodder?! Why does this feel like a "pampered lucky baby" story?!] The Bai family: Their little Yunyun is, indeed, their precious lucky baby.
