Black Among Us

"A mutt like you really thought he could marry into our family?" Isabelle Carter sneered, tossing a box at Karvel Cross’s feet. His old belongings spilled out—along with the engagement ring he had spent months preparing for Mariya. Laughter rippled through the room. "Pick it up, stray," Vincent Langford mocked, swirling his whiskey. "That’s all you’ll ever be. A discarded pet hoping for scraps." "Congratulations, Mariya," he said, voice eerily calm. "I hope your new fiancé doesn’t end up treating you the way you’re treating me.” But the humiliation wasn’t over. Her mother called him a mutt, Vincent Langford, a smug rival, mocked his existence, and soon, Karvel became nothing more than a joke among the elite. A discarded man with no value. What they didn’t know? The stray they cast aside… was a trillionaire heir. Karvel Cross is no longer the broken man they once laughed at. With secrets deeper than the ocean and a past that refuses to stay buried, he’s about to show them all—Mariya, Vincent, and the entire world—that the man they underestimated is the one they should have feared all along. "Dear ex, I don't need you anymore."

The year **** civilization has been reformed in a way to maximize economic production. It was called the Golden Civilization. However that was just the front, the world was divided into two areas, the Destitutes and Humans, and the humans had class, splitting into various factions bearing code numbers that were assigned to them once they were born, a world where everyone knew their limits and can never cross a boundary beyond their ability, promotions, and housing is only possible if you have a breakthrough. On the other hand, the Destitutes were an unwelcome species that inhabited the earth, looked like humans, and yet fed on humans. The government saw this as a problem and decided to train men and women to fight for their planet, hence ALAB was founded. Academic Labyrinth for Ability Beat (ALAB) University is a school where humans are trained to maximize their abilities. Behind its prestige lies the dark brink that was accidentally unveiled. Annually, the students compete, not only academically but also in performance level, to replace any of the Elite Five. This year, Ande has gotten to the age to enroll in ALAB, unaware of what lies beneath, however, he is unlucky because a new course has begun, the current Elite Five's nightmare is just about to start as the ALAB University forces them to become experimental subjects of "The Elite Game." Can the Elite Five succeed in escaping from the dark brink of ALAB University or will no one among the five of them survive?

In a civilization ruled entirely by Beast Tamers, social status, political authority, wealth, and survival are all determined by the spirit beast one awakens during the sacred Day of Summoning. Weak beasts condemn people to lives of humiliation. Legendary beasts create kings. Divine beasts shape empires. Jesse Fletcher, a poor orphan from the slums of Ashveil City, dreams of escaping the misery that has suffocated his life for years. But on the Day of Summoning, his awakening becomes the greatest humiliation in the city's history. While noble heirs summon terrifying elemental dragons, celestial wolves, and ancient war beasts, Jesse awakens a dying creature rejected by the system itself—a malformed black beast covered in broken golden chains. The elite call it a defect. The priests declare it cursed. The academy brands it worthless. They force Jesse to either destroy it or live forever as the city's shame. But Jesse refuses. Unknown to the world, the creature is not a defect. It is a sealed primordial entity erased from history after the Ancient Beast Wars. A forbidden existence capable of devouring evolution itself.

From hunted fugitive to shadow emperor, this is the story of a discarded man who refuses to die on schedule. The countdown has begun. Will he break the system… or will the system break him?

But standing in his path is Sister Elara, a death priestess sworn to guide souls to rest. Unlike the others, she sees something unsettling in Thorne, not just a monster, but a man shaped by injustice. As their paths collide, faith begins to crack, and the line between justice and vengeance blurs. If the kingdom that claims to protect the living is built on the bones of the forgotten, then who is the true villain, and when the dead rise to reclaim what was stolen, will Thorne become the savior of the fallen… or the very tyrant he set out to destroy?

Justin continued eagerly. “Remember how you kept talking about Delico Restaurant at school? You always said you wanted to taste their food.” There was another pause. “Yes… I remember,” Britney said slowly. Justin smiled. “So I was thinking… maybe tonight we could go there together.” “What about that?” she asked. Justin laughed softly. “I mean we could finally try it. Just the two of us.” But Britney suddenly interrupted him. “Justin,” she said politely, though her tone carried a hint of irritation.  “Do you really expect us to get dressed up and go to Delico Restaurant just to buy one plate of food and share it?” Justin blinked in confusion.
