The Probability of Wealth

"Everyone in the market chases information. James Smith already knows the odds." James Smith is seventeen, broke, and invisible — a scholarship kid from Lyon who spends his lunch breaks reading annual reports no one asked him to read. He has no connections, no capital, and no name worth mentioning in the halls of French finance. But he has one thing nobody can see: a plan that stretches beyond his own lifetime. He doesn't want to be rich. He wants to build something permanent — a legacy so solid that his name will carry weight long after he's gone, and his children's children will never know what it means to start from nothing. Then a lab accident changes everything. A routine errand at a research facility. An equipment failure. A flash of white. When James wakes up in a hospital bed two days later, he notices something no one else can: a silent, translucent panel at the edge of his vision. It doesn't speak. It doesn't explain. When he focuses on any investment, it shows a single number — a probability score. Nothing more. He doesn't know what it is. He doesn't know why it works. He only knows it's his — and he will take that secret to his grave. What follows is not a story of a boy who got lucky. It is the story of a man who took one edge and built an empire from it — one calculated position at a time. From the trading floors of Euronext Paris to the boardrooms of global conglomerates, James moves in silence, leaving behind only results that no one can explain and a reputation that makes even the oldest money in Europe uncomfortable. He will become the greatest investor France has ever produced. And nobody — not his closest friend, not the woman who sees him most clearly, not the institutions that fear him — will ever know why. The probability is always in his favour. The reason is always his secret.

Thank you very much! -0- Chess players have no future in Indonesia! That was what Adrian Sheva, a 17-year-old boy from the most crowded district in Jakarta, said to convince himself that delving into the chess world would be a waste of time. He didn't even bat his eyes after getting the system that would help him become the best chess player in the world. No, it is better to work in a food stall and earn money honestly. However, it seems that the people around him disagree. They all see the talent hidden in Sheva - although Sheva himself insists that it all comes from the system - and force him to go deeper into this world. As he accumulates more experiences, playing more tournaments, making new friends, and fighting against new rivals from other countries, and winning some glories for his country, slowly but surely, this game starts to grow on him. Until in the end, he finally looks back at his journey from the bottom, Sheva cannot help but smile and say, "Oh, well... It seems that this game is not as bad as I thought..."

Motoracing: The Champion Rider and the No.1 Mecha-Maiden

This is the Quadrant Realm, a world where humans live alongside Mecha humans. Racing is the meaning of life, and the title of racer is the most prestigious honor of all. Racers fight side by side with their Mecha partners, striving toward the pinnacle of the world. For Jawed, once the number one motor rider in the world, being transmigrated into this world should have been a dream come true. Yet, having witnessed the filthy, corrupt sides of the racing industry, in this life he wants nothing more than to live an ordinary life, completely detached from the world of motors. Yet once he leaves the track behind, his life seems to lose all meaning. Everything fades into a dull gray, monotonous and hopeless. Just when it seems he would wither away in those empty days, on one heavy rainy night, he accidentally encounters a beautiful girl huddled in a narrow alleyway. Her eyes vacant, her body frail, her clothes torn and worn. She has no memories, no recollection of who she is. She only remembers that she is a Mecha human, and that deep within her heart burns an overwhelming desire: to lead her rider to become the world champion, and to become the greatest Mecha human of all. That seemingly chance encounter completely changes Jawed’s life. A new journey begins, a journey for a former champion to rediscover the joy of the racetrack, a journey of self-discovery for a Mecha girl, and a road toward conquering the world championship. The champion racer and the No.1 Mecha girl will crush all rivals!

A SEER'S REDEMPTION FROM OUTCAST TO ALPHA

Remy Beaumont was an orphan with nothing, he had no family, no future, no reason to believe tomorrow would be different from the endless torment of today. Bullied, broken, and standing on a chair with a rope around his neck, he was seconds away from ending it all. Then a ghost from 1850 appeared and cut the rope. Silas Beaumont, Remy's great-great-granduncle who died the same way 176 years ago, brought more than salvation, he brought a divine gift: Foresight, the power to see 24 hours into the future with perfect clarity. Armed with supernatural knowledge and guidance from a spectral ancestor, Remy transforms from victim to victor. He uses his gift to dominate financial markets, build a business empire, and dismantle the enemies who once tormented him. But wealth and power aren't enough. Three women enter his life, each broken in their own way: Lyra, the ice queen heiress whose family empire is crumbling Nyx, the brilliant scholar crushed under impossible expectations Indigo, the beautiful model who's hollow beneath the surface. As Remy helps them escape their own traps, an unconventional bond forms, one that defies social norms but proves stronger than any traditional relationship. Together, they build something unprecedented: a family forged not by blood or convention, but by choice, healing, and the shared journey from darkness to light. But divine gifts come with divine consequences. And as Remy rises from outcast to alpha, he must answer one question: Will he use his power to build or destroy? To help or harm? To become the monster who broke him, or something better?
