A recurring nightmare afflicted Khan's nights since the Second Impact. His dreams replayed the scenes of the crash of the Nak's spaceship, an alien race that the humans had defeated five hundred years ago. Khan's life had turned upside-down after the tragedy. His mother had died during the incident, and the Nak's toxic mana had infected him. His father had managed to save him, but they ended up losing their home and name in the process. The nightmares wouldn't let Khan forget about the Nak, so he decided to join the Global Army and learn to wield mana. He had to put an end to those dreams, even if that meant hunting down that alien race through the stars. ------------------------------------- Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/EoCNovels Instagram: eocnovels Discord link: https://discord.gg/fNsPwXMP7P

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.

The world ended without leaving any answers. When fragments of the Otherworld began to merge with reality, existence itself collapsed. Time, memory, and form lost their meaning, and war became nothing more than the final echo of something much greater. Maxinni Isla fought until the end. She saw what no one was meant to see. And then… everything ceased. She wakes up in a hospital room. Twenty years before the end of the world. Haunted by memories of a reality that has yet to happen, Maxinni realizes that the Otherworld wasn't destroyed—merely forgotten. Its vestiges still whisper beneath the surface of the present, waiting for the right moment to return. Not every end can be avoided. Some are just waiting to be remembered.

Lucas transmigrates to a parallel world and is thrilled to discover that many of the classic, brilliant games from his past life don’t exist here. Eager to make his mark, he’s also burdened with an "Emotion Collection System"—where players’ emotions like joy, sorrow, excitement, fear, and anger from his games make him stronger. But why is it so much easier to harvest resentment than happiness? Staring at his point earnings, Lucas is utterly baffled. And so, his career as a game designer takes a… creative turn. In Undertale, players slam their desks and scream: "I’m the one being played by this game!" In Outlast, players shriek: "The locker moved! I quit—NOPE!" In Dark Souls, players cheerfully boot up the game, only to beg: "Leave the Fire Keeper and GET OUT! Take your damn flame with you—we refuse to link it!" In Call of Duty, Soap, Roach, and Ghost meet tragic ends; in Final Fantasy VII, Zack falls in battle and Aerith meets her fate; in Red Dead Redemption, Arthur and John are betrayed… Players collectively rage: "DAMN YOU, LUCAS, YOU SADISTIC OLD FOX! CAN’T YOU BE KINDA TO YOUR PROTAGONISTS?!" When asked by a reporter how he feels about players’ fury, LUCAS smiles faintly: "This isn’t hatred—it’s the world’s players urging me forward! This is LOVE! Thank you all; I’ll keep up the good work!"

The infinite cosmos holds unimaginable secrets of wormholes, time travel, dimensions, and Realms. Two Realms locked in a war that has gone on longer than humans have existed in the dimensions beyond the third. The One Between struggles between the two wars as it faces unimaginable challenges in The Realm of No Light and as a human on Earth. A war in Earth's future where humans make allies and enemies with aliens for the goal of humanity's survival. Their mission is to find a solution to help end the future human war and The War against the Beings of No Light. The Vessel will allow them to understand what it means to be a human in Earth's past. They observe the planet and study its inhabitants throughout their evolutionary development. With its Mentor, it learns and witnesses the beauty and atrocities of Earth. It carries with it the burden of The Final Judgement. Meanwhile, in another dimension, they are faced with the Chaos in The Realm of No Light. In order to find peace among its brethren, they must live among the darkness and embrace the chaos through pain. The One Between makes a Pact with its brother The Lord of No Light, to learn secrets unspoken and find answers to questions unanswered for eons. Is there a God among all this chaos? During this painful journey, the Knowledge The One Between seeks may be the answer but, how much Knowledge can be gained without destroying one's mind? Will the chaos from The Realm of No Light and their brother, destroy their Light and evolve them into a monster they fear--a Being of Chaos? The One Between is willing to sacrifice everything, even its identity, to find what it's looking for and a solution to end the wars. Can humanity evolve from its own destruction? Is Knowledge worth one's sanity? What does it truly mean to be 'human'? The Final Judgement weighs on its conscience. 무한한 우주에는 웜홀, 시간 여행, 차원, 그리고 영역에 대한 상상할 수 없는 비밀이 담겨 있습니다. 인간보다 더 오래 지속된 전쟁에 갇힌 두 개의 영역은 세 번째 차원을 넘어 존재해 왔습니다. '하나의 사이'는 '빛이 없는 영역'과 지구상의 인간으로서 상상할 수 없는 도전에 직면하면서 두 전쟁 사이에서 고군분투합니다. 인간이 인류의 생존을 목표로 외계인과 동맹과 적을 만드는 지구의 미래 전쟁입니다. 이들의 임무는 미래의 인간 전쟁과 '빛이 없는 존재들과의 전쟁'을 종식시킬 수 있는 해결책을 찾는 것입니다. 이 배를 통해 지구의 과거에서 인간이 된다는 것이 무엇을 의미하는지 이해할 수 있습니다. 그들은 행성을 관찰하고 진화적으로 발전하는 동안 지구의 주민들을 연구합니다. 멘토와 함께 지구의 아름다움과 잔학 행위를 배우고 목격합니다. 최후의 심판이라는 짐을 안고 있습니다. 한편, 다른 차원에서 그들은 '빛 없는 영역'의 혼돈에 직면하게 됩니다. 형제들 사이에서 평화를 찾기 위해서는 어둠 속에서 살면서 고통을 통해 혼돈을 받아들여야 합니다. '사이'는 형인 '빛 없는 주'와 조약을 맺고 말로 하지 않은 비밀을 배우고 오랫동안 풀리지 않은 질문에 대한 답을 찾기 위해 노력합니다. 이 모든 혼돈 속에 신이 있을까요? 이 고통스러운 여정에서 '사이'가 추구하는 지식이 해답이 될 수 있지만, 마음을 파괴하지 않고도 얼마나 많은 지식을 얻을 수 있을까요? '빛 없는 영역'과 형의 혼돈은 그들의 빛을 파괴하고 그들이 두려워하는 괴물로 진화시킬까요? '혼돈의 존재'? '사이'는 자신이 찾고 있는 것과 전쟁을 끝내기 위한 해결책을 찾기 위해 모든 것, 심지어 정체성까지 희생할 의향이 있습니다. 인류는 자신의 파괴에서 진화할 수 있을까요? 지식은 제정신을 가질 가치가 있을까요? '인간'이 된다는 것은 진정으로 무엇을 의미할까요? 최종 판결은 그 양심에 무게를 둡니다.

Year 3333. Endless wars born from greed, ideology, and unchecked power wiped out nearly all nations until only one world government remained. To prevent humanity from destroying itself again, freedom was declared the enemy. Every child is implanted at birth with a neural chip that controls memory, behavior, and identity. Peace is achieved not by choice, but by command. Society is ranked by chip adaptability. The higher the synchronization, the higher the privilege. Those who fail to adapt are discarded as Rejects. Zayel, a 17-year-old student from the lowest rank, has always been broken by the system. Bullied, monitored, and destined for a life of labor, his final evaluation before adulthood seals his fate. When he is nearly beaten to death, something forbidden awakens within him. The System Manipulator. A rogue authority that allows him to control and rewrite the very chips meant to enslave humanity. Starting from nothing, Zayel is forced into missions to grow stronger until his power rivals the world government itself. In a world where peace exists only through control, Zayel must decide. Will he become humanity's savior, or its final tyrant?

After the nuclear winter, humanity survives deep beneath Vienna — in the tunnels, stations, and shafts of the old metro system. Here rules the Union, a techno-socialist state that believes humanity can only be saved through discipline, sacrifice, and reason. Surrounded by rival powers, hunger, disease, and competing ideologies, the Union wages war — not only for territory, but for the right to define what humanity truly means. David, a young soldier of the Union, is caught between duty and doubt. As the final great war draws closer, one question remains unanswered: How much humanity may die so that humanity itself can survive? This work is inspired by post-apocalyptic worlds such as Metro 2033, but stands as an independent and original story.

After obtaining the Mech Designer System, Ves aims to create the greatest mechs in the galaxy! In the far future, the galactic human civilization has entered the Age of Mechs. The countless lesser powers of humanity have come to adopt mechs as their main weapons of war. Only a small number of humans have the right genetic aptitude to pilot these destructive war machines the size of buildings. Born to a military family in the edge of the galaxy, Ves Larkinson is one of the many people who lacks the talent to earn glory in battle. Instead, he became a mech designer.

His mechs based on the principles of life quickly allows him to rise to prominence. Powerful and highly compatible with mech pilots, his products have the potential to take the market by storm. However, success does not come easily, and countless challenges bar his ability to sell his mechs to a market eager for innovation! With the sins of the human race in the galactic arena slowly catching up, Ves must navigate the perils of the ultra-competitive mech market and maintain control over his growing organization of misfits. This is the golden age of mechs. This is the golden age of humanity. The question is, will it last?

Avery Asteria was far from having anyone's dream job. Family circumstances had him drop out of school and flying around the expanse of space looking for treasure among the discarded trash in an old ship his father had been restoring. It was far from glamorous work, but it was all he could do to earn the money he needed. He was not the only one looking for fortune among the stars, though. One day a score that looked too good to be true led to a run in with a band of pirates. With some quick wits and a bit of luck, Avery managed to escape the worst, but he ended up missing out on collecting the valuable salvage he had his sights on. Having lost a large chunk of his gear in his flight from the pirates, Avery seemed to be truly at the end of his rope. However, a twist of fate led him to discovering an experimental vessel that had been lost to the far reaches of space. With this new ship in his possession, his prospects were looking up. It had everything and more than what any spacefarer could want. And Avery was going to use it to become the leader of the greatest band of mercenaries in the galaxy.

Leo had a problem. Don't be like Leo! It wasn't that he was poor. It wasn't that he was unlucky. It was that he had been cursed, or blessed by the Accidental Tycoon System. The rules were deceptively simple. Any money he lost on an investment would be returned to him, doubled. His life's new mission was crystal clear. He had to go bankrupt. In a high-tech world of S-Rank Heroes, magic, and newly-contacted alien civilizations, this should have been the easiest thing to achieve in the galaxy. He just had to become the biggest, most spectacular loser the universe had ever seen. So, he tried. Oh, how he tried... He threw billions at publishing a dungeon guide written by a 10-year-old. The maps were in crayon, and it listed the final boss as a Big Grumpy Badger. [Breaking: New S-Rank dungeon called 'The Whispering Labyrinth' appears! All high-tech mapping drones fail. A lost F-Rank porter used the crayon guide... and it's 100% accurate. The final boss is a 50-foot divine badger. The Galactic Union has declared the guide a 'holy text' for exploration!] He bought the galaxy's most useless moon, planning to build a 'Museum of Paint'. [Alert: Ancient magical ley-lines discovered under the moon's surface! It's the only place in the universe that can safely grow the 'Star-Lotus,' the key ingredient for immortality!] To the Intergalactic Hero's Guild, the Magic Academies, and the Alien Federations, Leo was the god of investment whose every move was like 5D chess that ordinary people couldn't understand. Heroes would soar with his sponsorship. Alien emperors offered him their daughters' hands in marriage for a single 'tip'. But Leo just stared at his bank account, which now displayed his wealth that he couldn't use on himself, with tears streaming down his face. "Please," he cried, "I'm trying to fail! Why won't you just let me be poor?!"

Scarlett "Scar" Vance doesn't believe in luck. She believes in odds, psychology, and knowing when someone's bluffing. Three years ago, she was a dealer in the Hollow—the slum island they forget exists. Tonight, she owns the Red Ace, the most profitable casino on Spade Island. The previous owner left her three things: the keys, $30 million in debt, and a bullet hole in his forehead. The Seven Houses think she's easy prey. They're wrong. DOM THORNE runs security for half the islands. He taught her first hustle in the Hollow ten years ago. Now he watches her take down card sharks with a smile, and wonders if she remembers his face—or his mechanical arm. ASHER BLACKWOOD built the tech that runs her slot machines. He was her fiancé before the fire that "killed" her. Now he knows she's alive, and he's buying her debts to keep her close. She keeps hacking his systems to remind him: she doesn't owe anyone. KAI NAKAMURA controls the fights where she earned her start. He doesn't care about her casino—he wants to see what happens when a Hollow rat takes the crown. He's betting on her winning. He's also betting on the chaos. JULES STERLING keeps her secrets in code. They built her new face together after the fire. He's been in love with her for three years, three months, and four days. He also knows she'll never forgive him if he says it out loud. Four men. Seven islands. One throne. Scar doesn't want their protection. She wants their respect. And then she wants to change the rules—so no other Hollow kid has to burn to get out. No chosen one. No easy love. No guarantees who wins. Just Scarlett Vance, holding aces, waiting for someone brave enough to call her bluff. [WARNING: Slow-burn reverse harem with morally gray characters, graphic casino violence, and emotional manipulation. ]

[Simulation shall commence.] On this fateful day, the world was stunned by the appearance of ancient animals that were supposed to have gone extinct for millions of years. Huge sinkholes appeared in every corner of the world, becoming a tunnel for the ancient animals to emerge to the surface. Humans have found an answer to one of the biggest mysteries in human history. Hollow Earth is real. Here, humans will wrest their lives to explore this new world that has existed for thousands, if not millions, of years underneath them. Before the start of his exploration, Clovis came across a place called ‘Another World Mall.’ Dwarven Sword, Magical Elven Clothes, or Giant Race Toy? Everything can be found in this ‘Another World Mall.’ As an aspiring Subterranean Explorer, how would he utilize this ‘Another World Mall’ to become the greatest explorer of all time and find the truth about the simulation?
