A River Runs Through It

Silas is disowned by his father because of a misunderstanding. He relocates to another state alongside his wife and son. One day, he receives a call from a strange number. The caller is a doctor and he tells him that his only son fell down from the rooftop and has been rushed to the hospital. When Silas gets to the hospital, the doctor tells him that he will pay five hundred thousand dollars for his son to be treated. He is an ordinary cleaner in an insurance company, so how will he get such huge amount of money? He runs Helter sketer, yet he can't provide a penny. As soon as Silas loses his only son, he receives a call from his rich father. His father wants him to come back home. Will he go back home? How will he revenge the death of his only son?

In a world where the "System" grants incredible powers, Silas is branded an Aberrant—a cosmic mistake. His "Paradoxical Path" doesn't give him magic or strength. It gives him impossible, humiliating quests. Get pecked by five chickens. Let a squirrel steal your lunch. Get slapped in public by the Guild's golden boy. Everyone in the backwater village of Oakhaven laughs at the boy with the useless System. But with every absurd challenge completed, Silas earns a hyper-specific, seemingly worthless reward: unshakeable heels, the ability to retrieve stolen items, legs that can't be knocked down. When the arrogant Stormcaller Sir Alaric and his elite squad become trapped by a dungeon's monstrous vines, they're saved not by a mighty warrior, but by a "useless" Aberrant throwing a rock in the most inexplicable way possible. Forced into the Guild's most despised division—Branch C, "Miscellaneous Problems"—Silas must now navigate a hierarchy that despises him, using his growing arsenal of bizarre abilities to solve problems no one else can (or wants to): a cursed oven, a whispering river, a cat in a tree guarded by an axe-wielding hermit. All while fending off the schemes of a noble rival determined to prove he's just a lucky fool. For Silas, every impossible quest is a stepping stone. Every humiliation is a hidden strength. And the Guild is about to learn that the greatest threat to the status quo isn't a mighty hero, but the village idiot who sees a different set of rules entirely.

They buried him a hero. They forgot he was still alive. Five years ago, Zayden Cross, the legendary commander known as The Iron Guardian, vanished in the ashes of war. His name was carved into stone, his legacy sealed in silence. But betrayal runs deep — and the dead don’t stay buried forever. When Zayden returns from the shadows, he finds a city ruled by corruption and a son poisoned by a toxin created by the same enemies who destroyed his life. To save the only family he has left, Zayden must face Viktor Draven, the ruthless mastermind pulling the strings of a new world order. Every step drags him deeper into a web of lies, revenge, and sacrifice. Allies may turn into enemies. The truth may cost him more than his life. The Iron Guardian has risen again. And this time, he’s not fighting for glory — he’s fighting for blood. ---
