Ryu: Genesis Anomaly

In the Dominion of Astryx, the most advanced and most dangerous nation on the planet, prodigy children are born as assets, not humans. One of them is Ryu Alverion. On the night his father died without any sign of forced entry, Ryu witnessed something impossible: a white spiral that stopped on its own, a phenomenon that cannot halt unless a mind accelerates it internally. By morning, before the Arcadia-6 police could finish their sweep, a black-clad division under legal VASENA authority seized Ryu with absolute jurisdiction. Inside the facility, his cognitive tests broke the systems. Simulations collapsed, AI froze, panels went dark. A single pattern kept reappearing: N.V. – Nex Vanthor, the greatest hacker in Astryx’s history, believed dead five years ago in Sector D-3. Each time it surfaced, Ryu’s world trembled. Nex wasn’t leaving random echoes. He was searching for a trigger, and that trigger was Ryu. Amid the covert experiments, Ryu met Lyra Vesperine, an Omega-Class girl whose silent beauty could sway national sentiment. A scar on her leg, left by bullies from her previous facility, led to their first meeting when Ryu carried her through Vasena’s cold hallway. Two broken heartbeats began to resonate. But Astryx never allows bonds like that. Omega-Class girls have elite suitors, constant surveillance, and every touch becomes political. And Ryu? He isn’t just a newcomer, he is an anomaly. Cassandra Nox, the investigation instructor with a personality like a cold blade, studied Ryu’s brainwave graph and froze. “There’s a pattern inside the pattern. As if, another mind behind yours.” Before she could finish, the simulation chamber crashed again. The white spiral blinked. A message typed itself without human input: “Ryu. You’re getting closer.” Behind the spiral’s glow, something moved, not human, not AI, not anything coded. Then a black encrypted file transferred automatically: PROTOCOL D-3 – FORBIDDEN FILE [Locked: accessible only to two minds, Nex Vanthor or the Trigger]. Ryu touched the panel. The system didn’t read his fingerprint; it read his brainwave. The protocol unlocked. Instead of answers, it played the final recording of his father. Varian Alverion smiled with terrified eyes and whispered: “If you’re seeing this, it means Nex has chosen you.” Then the screen went dark.

Mortal Reaper: Rise of the Billionaire Grim Reaper

Who better to experience the reality of death than a dead man? For a living man, what happens during and after death is only a myth, a myth he can choose to believe or not. Meet the dead man—Ren. Once hailed the youngest and quickest self-made billionaire and was on course of becoming the richest man alive because of his corporate acumen. But he became proof that the world hated a slave rising to a king’s position. Betrayed, sabotaged and abandoned, there was no way he could possibly climb out of poverty ever again. Tired of being hopeless, he turned to the things he once despised as myths. He would rather hope in something that wasn’t real, than live in the crushing weight of defeat. Only, that one decision changed his life forever—might I add his death as well. “No one will take anything from me this time round. No man, no prince, no king, no monster, no mortal reaper, no god. Not even the devil himself! No one! I won’t let it happen….” Ren smirked, a sharp glint flashing in one eye, one of his feet dangling over the edge of the tallest skyscraper in the kingdom. With a simple shift of his weight, he fell, disappearing in complex night-time aerial view of the city below. If anyone saw him fall from that height, they would say he was going to die for sure.....But you shall soon see for yourself that death is only his daily bread in a brutal world of politics, wealth, mana, cultivation, monsters and exiled gods. __End of Narration.
