Titan Awakening
“Is that… Jones? The most outstanding student at Norman Academy?”A beautiful girl with long golden hair stood frozen in place, staring at the handsome young man in the distance. Her eyes were filled with unmistakable admiration.Following her gaze, one could see Jones walking along the academy road, his arm affectionately linked with his girlfriend’s.Passersby cast envious and respectful glances at them. Almost instinctively, someone murmured in praise,“Senior Jones scored perfect marks in both the academy’s theoretical exams and combat trials. He’s hailed as the greatest genius in the entire history of Norman Academy!”The blonde girl looked at the girl beside Jones and sighed softly.“And that’s Senior Catherine… the captain of the academy’s cheer squad. She’s so outstanding and beautiful. I could never compare to her.”To nearly every female student in the academy, Jones was the man of their dreams.And today was Titan Awakening Day. With Jones’s ability, it was almost certain h
God-Level Choice System
Jones stared at the Titan he had awakened.It was a demon.Its twisted horns curved menacingly from its head, and its enormous body was larger than a military tank. In its hand it gripped a flaming whip nearly five meters long. The creature let out a sinister laugh as its burning eyes locked onto Jones.“Mortal… offer your flesh and blood as tribute and become my servant!”Jones’s gaze turned icy.He recognized the Titan immediately.SS-Rank Titan — Hellfire Demon.It was an incredibly terrifying Titan, possessing overwhelming combat power.But it also carried a fatal flaw.The Hellfire Demon could not be controlled by its hero.And a hero who could not control their Titan was no different from an ordinary person.Yet that wasn’t even the worst part.According to historical records, the Hellfire Demon would continuously devour the flesh and blood of its host. Every hero who had awakened this Titan had died within three months. Not only had they failed to enjoy the strength of an SS-ra
A Legend in the Making
The turning of fate often happens in a single instant.Just like this moment.The God-Level Choice System?Hearing the voice echo inside his mind, Jones stood there for a brief second, stunned.But Catherine’s cold and venomous voice quickly dragged him back to reality.“Someone get him out of the academy! I don’t want to see this loser for another second!”To ensure that the two million stayed firmly in her hands, Catherine began urging the simps gathered around her to drive Jones away by force, intending to swallow the money that had originally belonged to him.Hearing this, Jones slowly raised his head.In that moment, he understood everything.Seeing Catherine’s true nature today might not be such a bad thing after all.The warmth that once filled Jones’s blue eyes vanished completely. In its place was something far more oppressive—an intense, almost feral brutality.Catherine instinctively stepped back.She saw Jones lower his body slightly, then rush forward in the blink of an e
Favored by the Goddess of Luck
Four-Favored by the Goddess of LuckJones walked down the street toward the trading house.“I’ve got the mithril… but I still need Titan cores and Ice Crystal Marrow,” he muttered to himself.Titan cores came from monsters. You had to fight for them—and even then, there was only about a ten percent chance of harvesting one from a corpse. Each core cost one hundred thousand.One hundred cores meant ten million.And that wasn’t all. To perform the ritual and forge a contract with the Infernal Flame Demon, he would also need Ice Crystal Marrow—another material that would cost roughly ten million.He didn’t have enough money.That was why he hadn’t repaid the five million he owed Norman Academy on the spot. Now that he had made up his mind, Jones was ready to go all in—whatever it took to control the SS-rank Titan, the Infernal Flame Demon.Before he knew it, he had arrived.Under the night sky, a gilded sign gleamed above the entrance, bearing four bold characters—Blackwater Trading Com
A Billionaire
The game began.“I’m betting big!”Karl placed his wager first, absolute confidence written across his face. The DuPont family was powerful—even Blackwater Trading House had their people planted inside. Just moments ago, he had arranged for a device to be installed at the table, one that could subtly influence where the ball would land.For a seasoned gambler like him, there was no doubt—Jones was going to lose this round.With a dark look, Karl stared at Jones as if he were already a dead man.“Your turn. If I were you, I’d be on my knees begging for forgiveness right about now.”He had already made up his mind. Win or lose, he would have Jones seized and tortured to death.“You’re afraid,” Jones said calmly. “Afraid of losing.”His left hand brushed lightly over the black-gold card, a flicker of madness flashing in his eyes.“I bet on zero. But I want the odds raised to ten to one. And I’m adding another ten million.” He paused, then said coldly, “One round. Winner takes all. Let’s
The Life-and-Death Contract
The pain in his chest was unbearable.Yet Jones clenched his teeth and remained composed. Even as it felt like his heart was being hammered over and over again, not a single trace of panic showed on his face. He simply reached out and calmly took the black-gold card.Right at that moment—The materials required for the ritual were delivered with utmost care by a beautiful attendant: one hundred Titan cores and an ounce of Frost Crystal Essence.“I need a spacious room. No interruptions.”The contract ritual was extremely dangerous. Any disturbance could trigger a severe backlash.…Inside the room—The one hundred Titan cores were arranged in the shape of a pentagram. A mithril necklace had been crushed into fine powder, linking the energy of each core together. At the very center lay the Frost Crystal Essence.Under the chandelier’s glow, the entire formation shimmered with a cold, ice-blue light.Jones stepped into the center.It was time.Sensing danger, the Hellfire Demon lowered
SSS-Rank Titans
Was it better to cling to life for now… or risk everything for that final sliver of hope?For Jones, this had never been a question.Enduring the searing pain, he forced himself to his feet and charged straight into the flames, resolve written across his face.In an instant, the fire engulfed him.His skin blistered all over, swelling into countless burns. The pain was piercing, unbearable—his vision nearly gone. And yet, Jones didn’t hesitate. He pressed forward with savage determination, like the soldiers in the early days of the Cataclysm, who had charged fearlessly into endless hordes of monsters—meeting death with flesh and blood, defying fate with sheer will.Boom!Flames surged.Jones threw himself forward and locked his arms around the Hellfire Demon. Even as his hands nearly charred under the heat, he refused to let go.Outside, Karl’s shrill, mocking laughter never stopped. The pounding on the door came again and again, the noise crashing into Jones’s ears.But it only harde
The Curtain Rises
At the party—A massive crystal chandelier cast shimmering patterns across the pristine marble floor. A jazz band played softly off to one side, while the air carried the sweet scent of champagne. Heirs of the great families, dressed in perfectly tailored suits, exchanged polite smiles and hollow toasts.Yet their attention never strayed from the center of the hall—where beautiful women were displayed like cheap commodities.Among them, Lily stood out the most.The most striking face. The most alluring figure. Naturally, she drew the most attention—and the most discussion. Under the weight of men’s possessive gazes, Lily lowered her head, helpless.Around her neck hung a humiliating silver collar. She wore a revealing black dress, thin and tight, the hem barely reaching mid-thigh. It clung to every curve of her body, radiating a dangerously seductive allure.The other women brought in to “entertain” tonight were dressed the same way, barefoot on the cold marble floor—stripped of even
The Knight
“Jones?” Catherine’s smile froze on her face.Why was he here?The one who was supposed to arrive was that mysterious figure—the powerhouse who had created the pillar of light and drawn the entire city’s attention.As for Jones—He should have been drowning in despair after awakening a useless SS-rank Titan, getting drunk in some bar, or desperately searching for a way to survive with less than a month to live.And yet—Here he was, at her party.A wave of dizziness hit Catherine. Her perfect plan was on the verge of collapsing.“Big sister…”Jones’s gaze fell on Lily.Her revealing outfit. The collar around her neck. The exposed skin—In an instant, a fury like a volcanic eruption surged through him.How could he not understand now?Lily had been tricked here—reduced to a plaything for these so-called elites.This was the “surprise” mentioned in the invitation?Turning his sister into an object?Unforgivable.Jones strode straight toward Lily. The guards tried to block him, but in hi
