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?

I was a disgrace to the Prestwick family—a poor, unwanted son-in-law they wished their daughter had never married. She had chosen me for my looks, but now, even that wasn’t enough. She wanted out. A divorce. To erase me from her life and marry into wealth like her family had always intended. But I loved her. Despite the insults, the humiliation, the way they treated me like dirt beneath their feet—I refused to let go. That was my biggest mistake. Frustrated by my defiance, my brother-in-law took matters into his own hands. He killed me, tossing my body into a cold, dark river, leaving me to sink into oblivion. I should have died. I did die. But before I took my final breath, a man appeared before me, cloaked in shadow, his voice like a whisper from the abyss. "What is your last wish?" I should have begged for revenge. I should have cursed their names. But all I wanted was one more chance. One more chance to live. And so, I was granted life again. But I was no longer the same. My soul was no longer my own. My body was no longer mine to control. Because I had been reborn as something far more powerful. I was no longer John Prestwick. I was the Devil himself.

"I must be losing my mind," Min Suhyun muttered, struggling to grasp the unsettling reality that unfolded before her. How had she ended up here? In the realm of clichéd stories, such a trope typically befell the deceased, not someone who had merely skimmed through old drafts. And yet, here she was, trapped in the body of an insignificant extra named Serein Rowe. The realization hit her like a bolt of lightning, raising questions she couldn't easily dismiss. ‘This can't be another one of my lucid dreams... Is this some twisted cosmic joke?’ she pondered, her mind reeling with the absurdity of her situation. Nevertheless, given that she could barely do anything to return to her world, she might as well seize this opportunity to finally finish what she had started, right? Living here and continuing until the end of this draft, she could create a good ending, '—though maybe it won't be as easy…?' Surviving as a side character suffering from a curse-like chronic illness? That would undoubtedly be a struggle. Now, that would undoubtedly pose a challenge, although it’s still a better fate than dying early, serving only as a trigger for the story's advancement. Min Suhyun contemplated for a moment before firmly resolving to a single objective: To survive until the very end.

In a gritty urban world where dreams drown faster than the desperate, Jason Hale is a forgotten orphan with no family, no future, and now just 60 days to live.

Will Jason rewrite his fate, reclaim his love, and uncover his orphan origins before the clock hits zero?
