Supreme Demon Emperor Returns
Betrayal was shattered and discarded like trash into the depths of a ravine. Xavier Aristhos rose from death through a blood contract with the demon Morax. He returned to New York not to claim his inheritance, but to demand lives, with hell's power throbbing in his veins.
By day, he was the elegant CEO of Umbra Capital, dominating Wall Street with icy precision. But by night, he was the Supreme Demon, harvesting the souls of sinners. Without mercy, Xavier dismantled the Aristhos dynasty from within, forcing his stepmother and stepbrother to crawl and beg for forgiveness before dragging their filthy souls into the grave.
To protect Livia, the only light remaining to him, Xavier willingly cast aside his humanity. He became a lonely guardian god lurking in the shadows of New York's glass towers. He would not stop until all his enemies knelt and felt the sting of the betrayal he had endured.
"Your style may be elite, but before me, your soul is nothing but cheap trash."

Chapter: 84. Valerius's Blood DomainValerius's laughter echoed incredibly loudly, completely deafening the ears.The demon wearing the maroon suit spread both his arms wide. An excruciatingly boiling heat exploded outward from the pores of his skin. The air inside the luxury hotel ballroom felt as if it had caught fire."This is the absolute end of your game, Devil of Wall Street," Valerius threatened, his red eyes flaring brightly. "I am going to burn the rest of your humanity to ashes.""Your magic is incredibly filthy and entirely devoid of class," Xavier replied with absolute elegance. He stood tall, flawlessly withstanding the scorching heatwave."Let us see exactly how classy you are after this," Valerius mocked, rotating both his hands in the air."Blood Domain," Valerius chanted lethally.The red carpet floor beneath Valerius's feet abruptly melted. The floor transformed into a thick pool of deep crimson liquid. That liquid was a boiling sea of blood.Blood bubbles popped continuously, emitting a scalding steam

Chapter: 83. The Rival CollectorValerius brought his face incredibly close to Adrian's ear. The searing heat radiating from the demon's body instantly scorched the young man's skin."Your soul smells absolutely exquisite tonight, young man," Valerius whispered. His voice echoed lethally, exactly like a transmission from the deepest pits of hell. "I have come here specifically to harvest your absolute despair."Adrian froze rigidly, his eyes bulging wildly. His mouth hung open, but his voice was completely trapped in his throat.Valerius raised his left hand high into the air. The demon wearing the maroon suit snapped his fingers exactly once. The sharp sound of the snap echoed exactly like the violent breaking of a thick bone.A devastating wave of blood-red energy exploded outward from Valerius's body. The wave swept across every single corner of the hotel ballroom at the speed of light. The cosmic magic unconditionally halted the flow of time for the mortal realm.Hundreds of Wall Street conglomerates abruptly fro

Chapter: 82. The Auditor ReturnsIsabella delivered an incredibly lethal look.The commander of the Aristhos family's personal guards nodded slowly. The scarred man separated himself from the crowd of guests. He took two of his subordinates and slipped away quietly. They trailed Audrey Vance, who had just stepped away from the main table.Xavier stood completely calm in the middle of the auction hall. He held a glass of champagne but did not drink a single drop. His blue eyes sharply recorded that stealthy movement."Fenrir," Xavier called out through the communication device in his ear. His voice sounded remarkably low and elegant."I am right here, Sir," Fenrir replied from the dimly lit corner of the hall. "I saw those three guard dogs moving toward the left wing corridor.""Audrey carries physical data that is absolutely vital to our company," Xavier stated, staring at Isabella's back from a distance. "Isabella is trying to silence her tonight.""Should I capture them alive, Sir?" Fenrir asked, preparing to move.

Chapter: 81. A Masquerade of HypocrisyGiant crystal chandeliers illuminated the Grand Plaza Hotel ballroom with absolute magnificence. Classical music played softly in the background. Hundreds of Wall Street conglomerates gathered, holding expensive champagne glasses.Isabella Aristhos stood dead center on the red carpet. The viper wore a highly elegant gold evening gown. A flawless fake smile was plastered securely across her face. She greeted the investors with an incredibly deceptive grace."Thank you so much for coming, Mr. Morgan," Isabella greeted highly elegantly. "Aristhos Corp always deeply appreciates your financial support.""Of course, Madam Isabella," the old investor replied. "We certainly hope those bankruptcy rumors are entirely false.""Those are nothing but cheap gossip," Isabella lied with a soft laugh. "Our company is incredibly healthy."Right beside Isabella, Adrian stood completely rigid. The young man's eyes looked completely empty. His face was exactly as pale as a corpse. The effects of the high-

Chapter: 80. The Queen's Desperate TacticsFreezing ice water was splashed violently over him.Adrian jolted awake from his unconscious state with a loud shriek. The young man's breathing was heavy and rapid. He felt his soaking wet face. He lay helplessly on the marble floor of the Aristhos Estate lobby."Damn it, that is cold!" Adrian roared, opening his eyes.Isabella towered directly in front of her son. The viper held an empty silver bucket. The elegant woman's face looked incredibly rigid, suppressing her boiling rage."You are finally awake, you idiot!" Isabella snapped with absolute coldness. She hurled the silver bucket onto the floor, producing a loud, harsh clatter. "You are an absolute disgrace to this family, damn it!""Mother?" Adrian whimpered, clutching his incredibly dizzy head. The lingering terror from last night violently tortured his neural pathways. "Where am I, damn it?""You are in my house!" Isabella roared, grabbing the collar of Adrian's mud-stained shirt. "The guards found you passed out on the stre

Chapter: 79. The Rival's RetreatThe sound of snapping mystical bone echoed incredibly loudly within the dead-end alley.Valerius groaned in fury, suppressing the agonizing pain. The red-suited demon forcefully yanked his arm back. Xavier's grip finally broke. Valerius leaped backward, distancing himself from his opponent. He skidded exactly three meters across the wet asphalt."You are actually using pure physical violence, Xavier," Valerius mocked with a savage laugh.His broken bone snapped back into a perfectly straight line. His mystical flesh fused back together flawlessly in a matter of seconds."Violence is the absolute easiest language for a parasite to understand," Xavier replied with extreme elegance.Xavier stood tall, actively shielding Adrian's violently trembling body behind him."Get out of my way, you bastard!" Adrian roared, crying hysterically. He crawled backward until he crashed into a rusted dumpster. "I do not want to die! Both of you are cursed monsters!""Shut your mouth," Xavier ordered with

THE VARIANT: ZERO HOUR
The apocalypse didn’t fall from the sky. It was born from a needle in a quiet hospital hallway.
Kang Jaemin was just a brother trying to keep his younger sibling safe when the world suddenly ended. But that one good deed cost him everything when a monster's teeth tore into his arm. Waiting for the end, Jaemin didn’t die. Instead, something else took root. He became "Specimen Alpha" a new breed of predator, half-man, half-monster, with the power to crush steel and an instinct for the hunt that was second to none.
But in a shattered world, the living are far more rotten than the dead. So when the world’s corrupt elite the billionaires and military commanders try to crush what little family he has left and turn him into their weapon, they make the biggest mistake of their lives.
They woke the wrong devil.
Alongside a handful of hardened survivors, with his brother as the only anchor to his sanity, Jaemin begins his warpath. He’s not just surviving. He's hunting. He will tear down their high-tech fortresses and shatter their hubris with his bare hands.
"You thought you were gods in this new world? Let me show you how a god can die."

Chapter: 14. Justice at the End of a BarrelThe muzzle of the revolver pressed so hard into Minseok's forehead that it left a deep, red indentation in his cold, sweat-drenched skin.The Archive Room instantly froze. The atmosphere of grief and sorrow that had torn at their hearts just seconds ago evaporated without a trace. It was completely replaced by a lethal tension, ready to explode at any given moment.Jinwoo towered over the middle-aged virus creator. The police officer's breathing was ragged. His chest heaved rapidly. His bloodshot eyes radiated pure, unadulterated fury that could no longer be contained by any law enforcement code of ethics in this world."Take it back," Jinwoo hissed lowly. His voice trembled as he fought to suppress the explosive wave of emotion. His index finger rested tightly against the trigger. "Go on, say it again. You said his brother's crying is going to get us killed? Then what the hell do you think your failed experiment did to his mother, who is getting eaten alive down there, you bastard?!"

Chapter: 13. Embracing the Tears in Silence"Mhmmpff! Let me go! Let me go!"A desperate struggle unfolded on the dusty floor of the Archive Room, which reeked of metallic blood. Jaemin pinned Jihoon's small body down with his entire weight. He locked the twelve-year-old's movements to prevent him from running toward the window. His left hand clamped tightly over his brother's mouth, while his right hand pressed the back of Jihoon's head firmly against his chest.Jihoon thrashed like a trapped little animal. His hands, wrapped in magazines and duct tape, pounded brutally against Jaemin's chest, shoulders, and arms.Thud. Thud.Jihoon's frantic strikes accidentally hit Jaemin's left arm, landing exactly where a thick shard of glass was still embedded beneath his wrapped shirt."Argh, damn it!" Jaemin cursed under his breath as an excruciating sting shot through his nerves.The glass shifted inside his flesh. Fresh blood seeped out again and dripped onto Jihoon's cheek. Yet Jaemin did not loosen his grip in the slightest. His jaw

Chapter: 12. A Face Among the MonstersThe evening wind blew through the shattered window of the Archive Room. The air no longer carried a refreshing chill. Instead, it brought a thick, stomach-churning stench of burning asphalt, melting rubber, and the metallic tang of blood pooling everywhere.Jaemin stood frozen at the edge of the warped aluminum frame. His hands, coated in black blood, gripped the window ledge so tightly that his knuckles turned a sickly white.Down below, roughly three stories from where he stood, hell was throwing a feast.The hospital courtyard was swarming with dozens of the undead roaming aimlessly, dragging their broken legs or busily tearing into the remains of victims who had failed to escape. But among the sea of repulsive monsters on the asphalt, Jaemin's silver eyes locked onto a single spot.Right near the security booth pole.A woman crouched with her back facing the building. Her knee-length maroon dress, the exact same outfit his mother had ironed that morning, was now torn at the shoulde

Chapter: 11. A Call from HellRing! Ring!The K-pop ringtone blared at maximum volume. It sliced through the silence of the Archive Room like a razor blade. In a room that had just witnessed a monster massacre, the cheerful tune from the phone's speaker felt profoundly wrong. It was a jarring contrast. It was incredibly deadly.Jinwoo jumped from his spot. His eyes went wide as he stared at Jaemin's pants pocket."Turn off the damn phone! Turn it off right now, Jaem!" Jinwoo hissed in a panic. His hand grabbed the grip of his revolver, even though he knew a gun could not silence a ringtone. "Are you trying to invite every monster on the third floor in here for a party?!"Min-Ji did not waste time with words. The former fixer stepped forward with lethal precision. She aimed the muzzle of her Glock 19 directly at Jaemin's thigh."Throw the phone out the window right now," Min-Ji threatened coldly. Her index finger squeezed the trigger halfway. "Or I will blow your thigh to pieces along with it."But Jaemin acted as i

Chapter: 10. SHOVING THE BEAST"MMMPHHH! MMMMMPPHHH!"Minseok’s screams were muffled by the black duct tape over his mouth, turning into a deafening, nasal howl. The middle-aged man's eyes bulged as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.The teeth of the woman in the white blouse, now fully mutated, had sunk deep into Minseok's right shoulder. The doctor's white coat was torn like wet paper. The sickening sound of flesh being chewed alive and cartilage snapping echoed in the cramped four-by-four-meter room. Fresh blood sprayed out, drenching Minseok's face and splattering the metal shelves behind him."Son of a bitch! Get off him, you pig!" Jaemin cursed.He didn't give a damn about Minseok himself, but if the old man died, any information about the virus would be lost forever. Jaemin grabbed a folded metal chair from near the desk and raised it high.Min-Ji, standing nearby, had already raised her Glock 19, ready to pull the trigger and put a bullet straight into the female monster's head."Don't shoot, w

Chapter: 9. THE UNINVITED GUEST FROM THE FOURTH FLOOR"Liar."The one word from Min-Ji was ice cold, freezing the air in the Archive Room. The barrel of her Glock 19 was locked dead straight, just an inch from the forehead of the woman who had just crashed through their window.The woman, whose white office blouse was now stained a deep crimson, trembled violently. Her hair was a mess, riddled with shards of glass. She was sobbing, raising her shaking, blood-covered hands in front of her face."I-I swear! I’m a doctor on duty from the fourth floor. I-I just slipped and fell trying to escape from the balcony upstairs. They broke down my door. Please, don't kill me," the woman pleaded, her voice shattered by heart-wrenching cries.Jaemin, still standing guard over Jihoon behind him, watched her with uncertainty. His mind was racing. On one hand, his survival instinct was screaming that something was wrong. On the other hand, seeing the woman begging for her life reminded him of his own mother, who had probably begged just like this before
