Within the grand halls of the Kingdom of Eskard, Irene lives like a ghost everyone pretends does not exist. Although she is the daughter of the great King, she is nothing more than "a stain upon his name" in everyone's eyes. Irene is the only princess of mixed, non-noble blood, the daughter of a maid whose entire family was massacred before her eyes by order of her own father, the King, under the pretext of treason and espionage. But the bitter truth behind their deaths was far more horrifying than anyone could bear, and far too dangerous to be revealed. The King kept her alive within the palace for years, not out of mercy as his people believed, but to use her as a bargaining chip, waiting for the perfect moment to dispose of her, just as he had done with her mother. And now, the time has come to "sell" her. He has decided to marry her off to General and Prince Lucas Theodore de Valerian of the enemy kingdom. Yet Lucas has never seen Irene as his wife. To him, she is nothing more than an additional burden that has kept him from being with the only woman he has ever loved. For Irene, however, this was not a losing bargain. It was the opportunity she had been waiting for all these years. Escaping her father's watchful eyes was the only freedom that would allow her to carry out her secret revenge from the shadows. But when the threads of fate begin to intertwine, and the abandoned princess finds herself in the heart of the enemy's den, will she remain faithful to her secret plan? And how can a heart that has known nothing but pain and revenge face a new reality such as love, a feeling it has never believed in? Will Irene succeed in bringing down the throne of the tyrant whose very name makes everyone tremble? Or will the snares of the past close around her before she can bring the curtain down on her revenge? follow my discord to find all information and update: https://discord.gg/mzHuNZwgK

One hundred years ago, the Great Experiment ended the world. Cities fell. Civilization collapsed. Humanity survived only by retreating behind twelve colossal fortified kingdoms known as the Shinokunis, where the towering Walls stand between life and the horrors that roam outside. Brook is a young Watchman in Shinokuni-01. Every day, he patrols the Wall, protecting a city that believes the past should remain buried. But Brook has never accepted the official story. His parents—two scientists who disappeared during the Great Experiment—were declared dead without a body ever being found, and he refuses to believe they are gone. While everyone else is content with the safety of the Walls, Brook searches for answers. As strange events begin to unfold—a mysterious voice beyond the Wall, hidden messages, forgotten records, and secrets buried beneath the kingdom itself—Brook realizes the greatest danger may not lie outside the Walls, but within them. Joined by his lifelong friend Sera, veteran Watchman Crowley, and a growing group of unlikely allies, Brook is drawn into a journey that will uncover the truth behind the Great Experiment, the origins of the Shinokunis, and a history that has been deliberately erased. What begins as one young man's search for his parents slowly becomes a battle for humanity's freedom. Because some truths were never meant to be forgotten. And some Walls were never built to keep monsters out.

When a veteran Wall Street strategist is inexplicably cast back to 1985 Tokyo, she finds her new family on the brink of financial collapse. Rather than despair, Saionji Satsuki views the era’s economic volatility as a playground for her advanced financial literacy. With the Plaza Accord looming and the Japanese yen poised for a historic transformation, she begins a ruthless climb, turning a desperate situation into a masterclass in wealth accumulation. Satsuki doesn’t just ride the wave of Japan’s bubble economy; she orchestrates its fallout to her advantage. By pivoting from currency speculation to a massive industrial empire, she secures a stranglehold on the nation's future infrastructure, from cutting-edge tech to vital pharmaceuticals. While the rest of the country eventually succumbs to the "Lost Decade," the Saionji Group emerges as an eternal titan, its shadow stretching over every corner of Japanese society.

“If loving you means letting you go… then I would rather chain you to me and make you mine—in every life.” “My Empress…” ... Eleanora spent her entire life trying to earn the love of the man she loved. In return, he gave her an execution. Accused of a sin she never committed, Eleanora stood before him with one last hope in him, but she refused to lower her head and dignity. As his sword rested against her neck, she met his blood-red eyes one last time. “I will never forgive you… for killing me and my child.” For the first time, she saw fear in his eyes. But it was too late. The sword fell. And Eleanora's world turned dark. Until she opened her eyes again. Ten years in the past. This time, she will not beg for his love. She will not sacrifice herself for anyone. She will change her fate—even if she has to abandon the man she once loved. But when the past begins to change in ways she never expected, Eleanora discovers something far more terrifying than her own death. She wasn't the only one given a second chance...

"This is a world-first story. The history is the story. Stay with it." The world has ended before. Not in myth. Not in metaphor. It ended completely — gods unmade reality reaching for something they were never meant to hold, and existence corrected itself the only way it knows how. It took fifty thousand years to forget. Another hundred thousand to rebuild. It is about to happen again. This is not one story. It is many — stitched together across millennia, told through the eyes of those who lived inside a world that carries its own wounds forward. A nameless being waking in a summoning circle, learning what it means to exist. A woman who hesitated when she should have fought, and traded a year of her life for knowledge that is quietly unmaking her. A girl in an apothecary being handed a promise she doesn't yet understand. They do not know each other. Not exactly. But the world remembers. It always remembers. Stay long enough and you will see how the threads connect — how every choice echoes, how every name given in love becomes a weight carried forward, how the pattern emerging beneath the history is not a mystery to be solved but a wound that never fully closed. Knowledge is the weapon. History is the scar. And somewhere in the silence between chapters — You will realize you already care.

Li Tang was reborn on the eve of the new millennium. He knew the trajectory of the mining market over the next twenty years, had the coordinates of every newly discovered supermine, and understood the intricate details of century-defining mergers between mining giants. While experts lamented that all the rich mines were in the hands of major players and that the giants were troubled by aging and depleting resources, turning from exploration to ruthless corporate takeovers... A group from the East kept working miracles—discovering deeply buried, shockingly rich mineral deposits again and again. From scorching deserts, frozen Arctic lands, and uninhabited primeval forests, they extracted tons of ore. Fully loaded cargo ships, the industrial lifeline, thundered across the seas toward the East. He had advanced exploration technology, wielded capital like a club, and maneuvered deftly through complex global politics—completely disrupting the mining industry's global landscape. When he speaks, the world listens. One foreign mining analyst exclaimed: “He is already the sole mining oligarch on Earth!” Thank you for the support, friends.
