After an unexpected accident, a top-tier streamer known for speedrunning games wakes up in the body of Kazuya Kinoshita, the hopeless protagonist of a romance anime he instantly labels as “absolute trash.” Armed with nothing but a sharp tongue, quick wit, and a strategist’s mindset, he decides there’s only one logical move: Speedrun the entire story and get out as fast as possible. Instead of following the painfully slow, misunderstanding-filled canon of Rent-A-Girlfriend, this new “Kazuya” breaks every rule. He refuses to simp, calls people out to their faces, and dismantles forced relationships with brutal honesty. His words cut deep - often intentionally - leaving emotional fallout in his wake. From confronting his manipulative ex Mami Nanami, to rejecting artificial connections and exposing uncomfortable truths, he treats reality like a game: skipping “cutscenes,” triggering key events, and optimizing every interaction for the fastest possible ending. But not everything can be speedrun. As he grows closer to Chizuru Mizuhara, a girl hiding her true self behind a perfect façade, he begins to realize that real emotions don’t follow scripts - and that his own past has made him more broken than he thought. What starts as a cynical attempt to “clear a bad story” turns into something far more personal: A journey about honesty, consequences, and learning when to stop treating life like a game. In a world built on fake relationships, can someone who only knows how to break things learn how to truly connect?

THE TEMPTATION ​In the heart of a glittering, cutthroat metropolis, Vin Clark is the undisputed king of high-frequency trading—a man who treats his life, his business, and his relationships with the same cold, analytical detachment he uses to dominate the markets. His penthouse is a revolving door of elite society, late-night parties, and superficial connections, leaving his home in a perpetual state of chaotic neglect. ​Seeking to maintain the veneer of his high-status lifestyle without the inconvenience of personal mess, Vin hires a new live-in housekeeper named Lily. She arrives as the antithesis of the party-goers who frequent his life: poised, observant, impossibly beautiful, and entirely unimpressed by his wealth or his reputation. ​What begins as a strictly professional arrangement—cleaning the remnants of his excessive lifestyle—quickly devolves into a high-stakes psychological game of power and seduction. As Vin struggles to maintain his iron-clad control over his empire, he finds himself increasingly distracted by the woman who moves silently through his home. Lily, hiding a sharp intellect and a hidden agenda of her own, navigates the jealousy of Vin’s social circle—particularly his possessive female friend, Rose—while methodically dismantling the walls Vin has built around his heart. ​As the lines between master and servant blur, "The Alpha’s Ledger" explores a volatile romance fueled by ambition, forbidden temptation, and the thrill of the chase. In a world where every move is calculated, Vin and Lily must decide if they are playing for stakes that can be measured in money, or if they are risking the only thing that cannot be traded: their own surrender. ​Spanning 100+ chapters of shifting loyalties, boardroom drama, and intense, escalating intimacy, the story charts the transformation of a man who thought he knew the price of everything, only to find he is entirely unprepared for the cost of love.

Ren Wu died once. Two thousand years ago, he was the Imperial Chancellor who governed Hell itself—an Auditor who enforced cosmic law, taxed gods, and sentenced demons with a brushstroke. Then Heaven and Hell cooperated. He was assassinated before he could finish signing a decree meant to fix the cycle of reincarnation. Now, he has awakened in the body of a dying factory owner at the bottom of the modern Underworld. His wealth is his health. His business is survival. His enemies are corporations, gangs, ancient clans—and the government of Hell. While others cultivate to become immortal heroes, Ren Wu cultivates assets. He monopolizes supply chains. He weaponizes contracts. He turns gangs into employees. He turns ancient cultivation manuals into corrected instruction manuals. To Ren Wu, modern cultivators are not warriors. They are illiterate workers using corrupted translations of Hell’s employee handbooks. As Ren rebuilds his corporate empire, fragments of his sealed memories return… Why did his archaeologist parents send him an ancient coffin before vanishing? Why does the Administration desperately want him erased? Why does every ancient family’s sacred art trace back to Hell? To uncover the truth, Ren Wu must do what he does best: Acquire political shields. Build unions. Exploit loopholes. Rewrite laws. Because in this world… You don’t punch judges. You don’t sue gangsters. And you never fight the system. You become the system.

She was a girl whose smile softened his silence and whose presence felt warm enough to be called home. Each moment spent with her felt strangely familiar, as though he had loved her long before they met again.
