Ancient Romance

When a research expedition vanishes without a trace on a remote Pacific island, ex-soldier Kael Rynor is recruited for the rescue mission. Haunted by visions of ruins, rituals, and a voice calling his name, Kael thinks he’s losing his mind — until the island begins to respond to him. Storms shift when he dreams. Ancient symbols flare at his touch. And beneath the jungle roots, something ancient stirs — something that remembers him. As the team descends into the island’s labyrinth of ruins, they uncover the remnants of a forgotten civilization and the dark secret that destroyed it. Kael’s fragmented memories begin to return, revealing a terrifying truth: he isn’t just connected to the island. He was once its guardian — and the one who sealed away the entity now trying to escape. Now the line between memory and reality blurs. The survivors turn against him, the island burns, and the thing buried beneath begins to wake. To save what’s left, Kael must face the echoes of who he once was… Even if it means sealing himself away forever.

In the ruthless Solar Kingdom, where gods rule with iron fists and betrayal flows like blood, Lian is a broken slave marked by a dark curse—the mysterious Blood Key branded on his chest, a symbol of an ancient pact with a forgotten god of hunger. Beaten, burned, and forgotten, Lian’s life changes forever when he embraces a cursed power that grows stronger with every soul he devours. Now, walking the thin line between man and monster, he rises from the shadows as the elusive Black Ghost—a force of vengeance and rebellion. But the kingdom trembles under the cruelty of Prince Kairo, whose own dark transformation threatens to ignite war. As hunted whispers spread and the royal court launches a relentless pursuit, Lian must navigate deadly betrayals, forbidden powers, and a love that could either save his fading humanity or consume it entirely. Amidst swirling conspiracies and ancient secrets, one truth remains: only the Blood Key can break the seal binding their fate—and the princess who holds it may be both salvation and destruction. Blood will rise. Kingdoms will fall. And in the shadows, a god’s hunger awakens.

In the mystical land of Tribal, where ancient legends breathe and folklore walks, balance is sacred—and power is deadly. Four primal forces rule this realm, each so volatile that no one can wield more than one without being consumed. But when Alkan, a stranger from another world, appears holding all four, the balance shatters. His body is breaking. His mind is slipping. And the very fabric of the Tribal Lands trembles in his wake. To survive, Alkan must embark on a perilous journey across realms and dimensions to find the only artifact capable of containing the storm within him. But time is running out. The White Palace, seeing him as the reincarnation of their long-lost king, wants to bind him to a throne. Meanwhile, an ancient war between mythical creatures threatens to spill into the mortal realm he once called home. Torn between a destiny he never asked for and powers that could destroy him, Alkan must navigate treacherous alliances, unravel forbidden prophecies, and battle those who seek to control or kill him. The apocalypse is coming—and only a man destined to be torn apart can hold it back.

Zenith was once the ‘Elite Cog,’ the pinnacle protector of Magitek, until he failed. His failure to detect an ancient poison curse trapped the Empress in stasis, costing him his identity. He now lives as the Exile Mechanic, a nihilistic junk scavenger who channels his pain solely through confusing, absurd jokes. However, when the Caledonian witch clans invade, Zenith’s ragged form can no longer conceal the Warlord’s combat memories. Forced to protect the teenage Crown Prince, he must balance the brutal ferocity of his military mode with the ridiculous buffoonery of his Exile persona. Fleeing across the Kingdom, Zenith and the Prince uncover a secret darker than his initial failure: the failure was not a mechanical glitch, but the work of ancient fate bound by the King’s Forbidden Oath. To destroy this curse and reawaken the Empress, Zenith must stop running from himself. He must learn to embrace the duality of the Warlord and the Clown, organize the remaining Magitek Legions, and prove that sometimes, the best way to maintain sanity against the horrors of war is to turn them into a joke.

Mercy is a luxury when currency of survival is lifespan. Crackle . . . hiss . . . boom . . . rain falls on corpses. The storey opens on the mountain of the dead - the last battlefield of the human race. Li Wei, who is a broken man under the curse of accelerated ageing, stands among the ruins of the Ancient God. His shaking hands hold a divine artefact - The Eye of Judgement. His body decays. His breath comes out in broken gasps - huff, cough, splat. And then… betrayal. The only family he's ever had - his sister, Li Xue - looks coldly on as she drives the dagger deeper into his chest. Thud… hiss… crackle… She calls him "nothing but an adopted mistake." A man named Yang Xun, brilliantly like an idol of deceit, thanks him mockingly. That's when Li Wei realises - the world doesn't reward love. It rewards survival. When he dies, something ancient is roused inside The Eye of Judgement. And when he opens his eyes again - it's 2025, the day the god forsaken game, LYTABern, descends upon Earth.

In the darkest corners of Marseille, where hope sinks faster than a rusted anchor, an overdose should have been the end for Jean Valéry. But for this broken Navy veteran, death was only a doorway. He awoke with another soul burning within him—that of the Black Sea Alchemist, the failed guardian of Atlantis, whispering of ancient magic and the vengeance of the deep. Every corner of the Old Port is now his laboratory, every drop of polluted saltwater an ingredient for deadly potions and poisons. Fractured memories guide him, while a raw and dangerous alchemical power demands release. But Marseille is not only a haven for crime bosses. Deep within its murky waters, an ancient power has awakened, demanding accountability for the failures of his past reincarnations. To save the city, he must first seize it from the grip of the underworld. To atone for the sins of the past, he must become a monster in the present. This is not a story about the rise of a hero. This is a story of transmutation—how a broken man is melted down in the crucible of magic, malice, and destiny. The question isn't whether he will survive, but what he will become afterward: an unbeatable crime king, or a protector damned by the sea?
