Lyson was just a regular 17 year old senior attending the Academy of Los Serafin of Calico when he came in contact with a strange device that seemingly appeared from thin air.

The greatest lie is the one you tell yourself. Kang Moo-hyuk was a genius scammer, a man of a thousand faces. But his final act didn't end with applause, it ended with death. When he opened his eyes again, he wasn't in hell. He was in Aetheria, a fog covered capital of steam engines, eldritch horrors, and silent gods. But he didn't wake up in a warm bed. He woke up slumped over a mahogany desk with a cold dagger buried five inches into his spine. He has transmigrated into the body of Arthur Ravencroft, the world's most famous consulting detective. The problem? Arthur was just murdered. And the killer is still in the building. With a knife in his back and police banging on the door, Moo-hyuk awakens a strange power: [The Authority of Lies]. It has one simple rule: If you can make the world believe your lie, it becomes the truth. To survive, he must act. He must become the Detective who solves impossible crimes. He must become the Crime Lord who rules the shadows. He must become the Prophet who deceives the Gods. "They say the truth will set you free? I say a well crafted lie rules the world."

When humanity faces extinction, what breaks first? our bodies, or our humanity? How much of ourselves are we willing to lose to stay alive? In 2104, The world has already ended, but its consequences haven’t. In the OctaCore: the last of humanity's shelters, resources are limited and the radiation is rising fast. Within two years, the surface will become unlivable. Long before that, the food will run out. The monsters that destroyed the world are still out there, but they’re no longer the worst threat. With the shelters on the brink, the council faces an impossible choice: Cull 80% of the population to preserve the remaining 20%, or Launch a suicidal mission into the wasteland to retrieve a supply shipment that could sustain humanity long enough to rebuild. A small team is chosen for the Hail Mary attempt. Memory-scarred survivors, soldiers who’ve already lost too much, and civilians carrying secrets they’d kill to protect—bound together by the thin hope that something out there might still be worth saving. Outside, they will face the world that once was: a ruined city haunted by monsters, nazis and the aftermath of choices no one wants to admit they made. What to Expect: 1. Morally questionable characters 2. No clear good or evil—only survival 3. Character-driven beginning → escalating high-stakes plot 4. Brutal worldbuilding 5. Mature themes (genocide, moral collapse, societal failure) 6. Gore, violent imagery, disturbing psychological content

When natural disasters rage, extreme cold and storms spread infinitely... When global mutations occur, zombies flood like tides, and horrific anomalies appear... When the apocalypse arrives, massive devouring abysses with diameters of hundreds of kilometers begin to appear around the world... When people look up to the atmospheric clouds and see the slowly emerging giant corpses of evil gods... From that day on, people started to notice that the time of sunrise became later and later, until the sun no longer rose, and what awaited was an endless polar night. To survive, on that day, the doomsday broadcast announced to the world for the last time: Everyone, head east, escape the dawn! ... Lin Xian awakens the "Mechanical Heart" ability, allowing him to devour machines to gain various mysterious skills, scan machines for blueprints to create new machinery, and even use his mind to synchronously drive various machines. Thus, he finds a 200-ton heavy gas locomotive, pulling specially modified storage, planting, production, medical, and living carriages, embarking on a 320,000-kilometer journey along the star orbit, charging eastward!

My grandfather is very eccentric, performing daily rituals of offering incense to himself, standing in front of his own spirit tablet and eating candles. Villagers are fearful of my grandfather.

The Chen of honesty, the Shi of sincerity.

After her rebirth, Rita vows not to repeat her past mistakes.

In this life, Rita decides to change the rules of the game. She will stay in the shadows and seize all the opportunities meant for the male and female leads.

The first star that passed away extinguished two thousand years ago. Four hundred years later, the mysterious Calamity of Heavenly Fall destroyed the civilization of the previous era, returning thriving cultures to ignorance. Since then, stars gradually vanished, the Firmament grew dark and dim, and a new civilization rose from the starless wilderness, flourishing once more. Yet, what accompanied this were war, death, destruction, and hatred. The flames once aimed at the Firmament were used to slaughter the people of enemy nations, and the raining clouds once engineered to alter deserts were turned into floods that engulfed the land. Humans once again began to kill each other for wealth and power... but no one looked up at the sky. They lost the Guidance of the stars Above the Sky, forgetting the awe of gazing upon the Milky Way. They were all prisoners. One thousand six hundred years after the Calamity of Heavenly Fall, a young child awakened memories of his past life. He wanted to break the Cage, to throw off the shackles. He wanted to become a star. To return to Above the Sky. "I don't care about how the people of this world live, whether they're well-fed or not, whether they can dress warmly or live comfortably, whether they have dreams or hopes. I don't care about their loves and hates." "I just want to go Above the Sky." ——Ian.

Battling an unusual form of personality dissociation, Motan admits to feeling the weight of immense pressure bearing down on him. Amidst this turmoil, he finds solace in a virtual escape called "The Realm of Innocence," a game that has become his sanctuary from stress. In the realm where ambiguity reigns, Motan's behavior is unpredictable and impetuous, making him the instigator and mastermind behind myriad events that spiral out of control. Yet, within the sphere of virtue, his resilience and courage shine through, earning him the admiration of many who see him as the epitome of a righteous knight and a fair judge. When dwelling in the balance of absolute neutrality, he adopts a demeanor of modesty and lethargy, mirroring the ordinary essence of every soul. Conversely, in the domain of chaotic evil, he transforms into a figure of madness and cruelty, embodying the very essence of a demon and deceiver, showing kindness only to himself. "Tan Mo is the most extraordinary Bard I have ever encountered, though he is... perplexing, to say the least," comments Countess Leisha, reflecting on his complex nature. "Mor is a man of distinguished integrity! Having met him just once, I am convinced that he is someone one can confidently turn their back to," declares Gwen, the leader of the Rose Rot, acknowledging his noble character. "If you're in search of the ideal neighbor, look no further than Hei Fan," recommends Alchemist Luna, suggesting his suitability for companionship. Yet, amidst these varied testimonies, a warning resonates, "Don't talk about that man!" indicating a mysterious, perhaps darker aspect of his persona that remains unexplored.

He was supposed to die in the academy dungeon. Instead, Earth’s greatest war hero opens his eyes as Velorum’s most hated student—the “villain” everyone expects to be executed by midterms. Swordsmen duel, mages burn, saints bless, tamers command beasts. He, unfortunately, practices the one art people fear most: necromancy. He doesn’t want a throne or revenge; after a lifetime of medals and funerals, he wants something scandalous for a villain—to live well. To laugh after curfew, to taste street food, to keep the friends who chose him alive. But the church wants a heretic, the crown wants a scapegoat, and the academy’s golden hero can’t explain why the “villain” keeps winning. Call him monster, call him traitor—he’ll carve out a life worth living, and smile while he does it. Discord: https://discord.gg/FK9GfrSjtb

In a world where cultivation meets modern society, ordinary young men and women compete not only in business but in martial prowess and mystical power. Amidst corporate battles and urban intrigue, one young cultivator rises above all, blending strategy, strength, and ambition to conquer both the financial and mystical realms. With every challenge, he learns that true power comes from mastering both the world of men and the forces beyond.

Li Wei, kind of your everyday guy, not out there saving the world or anything. He’s probably the dude you’d find zoning out in class or scrolling endlessly through memes. No chosen one vibes—until, bam! Out of nowhere, this ancient jade fragment fuses itself to his hand. Not painful, just... weird. And then it gets crazier. He starts unlocking these freaky powers, stuff right out of a wuxia flick. We're talking slow-mo parkour, mystical energy blasts, the whole sha-bang. Honestly, most people would just freak out and call it a day, but poor Li Wei? He’s got no guidebook for this. And it’s not like his life gets easier. Modern Earth’s messy enough, but throw in baggage from ancient cultivation worlds that randomly crash into his reality? Yeah, total chaos. Imagine trying to cram for your finals or just hang out with your friends, all while dodging assassins with killer kung-fu moves straight out of those old school movies. Sects start popping up, each with their own deadly drama and rules—some want to recruit him, some are straight up trying to end his career before it starts. Now here’s where it gets juicy—nobody’s got time for easy morals. Friends have secrets, enemies sometimes aren't total jerks, and don’t even get started on the people stuck somewhere in between. Li Wei’s trying to figure out who’s a real ride-or-die and who’s a snake in disguise. And in the midst of all this supernatural chaos, his heart’s doing its own thing, falling for someone that's practically a big, flashing “DANGER” sign. Kind of classic, right? Like the universe really wants to see how much emotional whiplash he can handle. But here’s the big question: is Li Wei gonna put it all together, turn the odds, and break out of normal-human mode? Or is he just gonna end up being another casualty in someone else’s ancient feud? Either way, it’s a wild ride—kind of like binge-watching your favorite fantasy drama and realizing you’d also have no clue what to do if lightning powers got dumped on your lap. Grab the popcorn, because Li Wei’s about to make some bad decisions in style.

Lin Chen lived a disciplined, invisible life in a modern Chinese city—until arrogance at work cost him his job and hunger pushed him into the shadows. One desperate mistake draws the attention of the city’s underworld, where power moves quietly and mercy is never free. Betrayed, hunted, and forced to erase his identity, Lin Chen survives only by intelligence, restraint, and will. He doesn’t seek power—but power has already noticed him. In a city ruled by unseen queens, survival is just the beginning.

Reality is breaking, not with fire or plague, but with recursion. Across the continent, places begin to repeat themselves, time stutters in certain regions, and the world feels less like solid land and more like a pattern slowly coming undone. The only thing keeping civilisation intact are the Pattern Wells, ancient anchors that stabilise existence, but they are failing one by one. As fear spreads, kingdoms go to war to claim what remains before collapse becomes irreversible. Beyond the edges of the world lies the Recursive Realm, a place whispered about in scripture and feared in folklore, where everything folds back into itself endlessly. It is not a land of monsters, but a law of nature taken too far, a domain of infinite repetition where distance, shape, and even cause and effect lose meaning. As the Pattern Wells weaken, that realm begins to bleed into the human world, leaving behind distortions that cannot be explained by ordinary logic. In this world, power is carved into the flesh at birth through Fractal Marks, living patterns etched into the skin like sacred birthmarks. Mark-bearers can descend into deeper layers of their mark to awaken greater abilities, but the deeper they go, the more dangerous it becomes. Every use risks destabilising the body, the mind, and the world around them, as if infinity itself is staring back. With war rising and the boundary between worlds thinning, the age of stability is ending. What comes next won’t be decided by heroes or kings, but by those willing to descend into the infinite and return with something the world was never meant to hold.
