System

With Nevermore in full swing, the competition for the Leaderboards is only heating up... Many years and even more levels have passed since Jake and friends entered Nevermore. With quite a number of floors passed, they turn their attention to the Challenge Dungeons. These Challenge Dungeons offer – as the name suggests – unique challenges and circumstances, and completing them will earn each Nevermore competitor points and multipliers to their existing points. As things unfold, it quickly becomes clear it’s through thesethese dungeons that the true top-scorer of the Nevermore Leaderboards will be found. Jake has no plans on losing out to anyone, especially not his fellow Chosen, Ell’Hakan. Follow Jake as he takes on these five dungeons, facing unique challenges, environments, scenarios, and opponents, with perhaps even a few truly worthwhile duels sprinkled in there. Oh, and labyrinths. Can’t forget the labyrinths, lest we make Minaga sad.

With the invasion of Earth handled, and an enemy Chosen now targeting him, Jake makes his final push for C-grade… A final push that includes refining one last skill before he evolves. Once that’s done, all he needs is a few more levels and to finish off his bucket list of vanities before it’s time to evolve. The evolution itself will have no surprises, right? Jake will no doubt learn more about himself his quest to explore his own abilities, when of course some things don’t go entirely as expected… but little does Jake know just how much his happy little accidents can send tremors through the multiverse and the impact it can have. Who knows, maybe the waves are big enough that it’s time to finally have a proper Chosen Ceremony, officially embracing his title as the Chosen of the Malefic Viper.

Having arrived at the Order of the Malefic Viper, Jake is eager to improve his alchemy… However, reality can often be cruel. Because while trying to do just that, Jake will be dealing with the political landscape of the Order. Between hiding his identity as the Chosen of the Big Boss, being forced to attend get-togethers, visiting vampires to sell ancient memorabilia, and trying to actually learn some alchemy, Jake's busier than ever. Earth also still calls. There, he helps friends deal with family issues by going on a nice road trip with Carmen and Sylphie. On the way, he can hopefully find time to hunt down the final Primas he needs – powerful monsters with unique key fragments – to participate in the upcoming system event dubbed the Seat of the Exalted Prima. An event that hopefully – no, certainly – won’t have any unforeseen Bloodline-induced shenanigans. Definitely not.

In a world that demands perfection, only the broken can cut through fate. On the eve of his historic ascension, Li Xuan was the undisputed crown jewel of the Azure Sky Sect. A peerless genius destined to rule the firmament. But supreme talent breeds venomous jealousy. Hours before he could condense his legendary Pristine Jade Core, he was brutally drugged and betrayed. His sworn brother wielded the blade, his beautiful fiancé orchestrated the trap, and together, they systematically smashed his jade dantian into ten thousand glittering, useless pieces. Stabbed through his spiritual foundation, stripped of his core, and left to die in the bone-chilling mud of the Abyssal Wasteland, Li Xuan was labeled a "cripple." A broken mirror forever unfit for the Dao. But his enemies made one fatal mistake: they left the shards inside his soul. Driven by an absolute, terrifying will for vengeance, Li Xuan refuses to heal. Instead, he does the unthinkable he awakens the jagged, razor-sharp fragments floating in his ruined body. Where others see absolute destruction, Li Xuan forges a forbidden new path: Fractured Ascension. A perfect mirror can only reflect the world, but a shattered mirror cuts it to pieces. Each jagged fragment of his broken soul becomes a lethal weapon hungry to devour heaven’s Qi, twist natural laws, and reflect every past humiliation back tenfold. Armed with a hurricane of broken glass tearing through his veins and an unbreakable will, the boy they discarded rises from the pits. No mercy. No negotiation. Those who broke his foundation to keep him on his knees will watch him ascend using the very shards they left in the dirt. “You thought you destroyed my future? You merely unleashed my edge.”

Julian Vance, the business emperor of New York, watched his life crumble in a single night. His luxury car was sabotaged and sent plunging into a deadly ravine by a rotten alliance: his stepmother, his stepsister, his own biological father who had poisoned his real mother for the sake of wealth, and Amber Miller — his materialistic fiancée who was nothing more than a power-hungry whore. But death rejected Julian when the [Revenge System] saved his life just one second before the explosion. Legally declared "dead" and left without a single penny, Julian hid his identity under the alias "Ian." At his lowest point, he was saved by Chloe Miller, a poor girl working as a waitress in one of the luxury restaurants owned by the Vance family. Ironically, Chloe was Amber’s distant cousin — the girl who had always been humiliated, trampled on, and treated like trash by Amber, the woman who suddenly became rich after allying herself with Julian’s stepsister. Guided by the System’s missions, Julian built a new empire of wealth from the shadows. He didn’t just reclaim what was rightfully his; using his mysterious identity, he systematically exposed the corruption of his family, uncovered the truth behind his mother’s murder, and secretly became Chloe’s protector. When the night of the Gala Dinner arrived, Julian returned not only to dismantle the Vance empire, but also to lay the entire world at Chloe’s feet — forcing Amber and the whole Vance family to crawl beneath their shadows.

In the modern world, everything has value. Bodies. Time. Love. Shame. Trauma. Information. Even human morality itself. Gavin Valerio finally realizes that truth after his life is destroyed in public. As the poorest student at Riverton University, Gavin loses everything in a single night. His girlfriend sleeps with another man, the video spreads across the university’s social platform, and his humiliation becomes entertainment for thousands of people. In a city where money defines status and status defines reality, someone like Gavin was never supposed to matter. Then, at the absolute lowest point of his life, something awakens inside him. Devil Capital System. A mysterious system that grants him access to unlimited capital assets. Money. Liquidity. Institutional networks. Influence. For the first time in his life, the world’s doors begin opening for him. But the System comes with rules far more terrifying than simply spending money. Because to the Devil Capital System, everything must generate value. Wasteful spending is punished. Emotional decisions are considered weakness. Even love itself can become a threat to system stability. As Gavin descends deeper into Riverton’s hidden world of business mafias, elite banking circles, luxury prostitution, viral media manipulation, and institutional power games, he begins to understand something horrifying: Capitalism was never just about money. It is the mechanism humanity uses to assign value to one another. The richer he becomes, the more Gavin is dragged into a brutal ecosystem built on influence, desire, social manipulation, transactional relationships, information control, and people willing to sell pieces of themselves just to survive. And as Gavin rises higher through a world where everything has a price, he begins to face a far more dangerous question: If value is what controls civilization itself... then who truly has the right to decide what something is worth?
