Brett Hand Inside Job

Ernesto is the new Night Watcher at the Roanake Retirement Community in Virginia. He is glad to have landed his new job and he pledges to do his best to do better than the former Night Watchers of the Community. Little did he know that the ex Night Watchers didn’t leave because of their incompetence but because of the disturbance of the ghosts that reside in the community. Will he be able to handle his new job or will his new job be the end of him? Only time will tell.

They broke his bones. They spat on his pride. They left him to die in the gutter. They just made the biggest mistake of their lives. Zolda was nothing—just another piece of street trash in a city ruled by cruel billionaires and ruthless gangsters. But on the verge of death, the heavens blinked. An ancient seal shattered, gifting him the Kunao Inner Eye and the forbidden Legacy of the Divine Healer. Now, Zolda sees what no human can: the flow of blood, the cracks in bones, and the dark secrets rotting inside the elites. He doesn’t need a scalpel to save you, and he doesn’t need a gun to end you. With a flick of his wrist and a single silver needle, he controls life and death. From crushing arrogant young masters at charity galas to battling cyborg assassins and dismantling ancient immortality cults, Zolda is on a warpath. Along with a genius fallen heiress and a deadly assassin-doctor, he’s building an empire on the ruins of his enemies. One hand offers salvation. The other delivers absolute destruction. In a city where money used to be god... Zolda is the new religion. "You have two choices: Get cured, or get crushed. The Emperor is in session."

After losing his job, his apartment, and the last bit of hope he had left, Ethan Cole finds a single dollar lying on the ground—his final piece of pocket change. But the moment he picks it up, a strange message appears before his eyes: [System Activated: The God of Ruin’s Pocket Change.] The system tells him the coin in his hand doesn’t belong to an ordinary person. It belongs to the God of Ruin, a being so powerful that even thousands of dollars mean nothing more than spare change. With the system’s power, Ethan can buy things worth tens of thousands using just one dollar, acquire companies with a few coins, and manipulate fortunes across the world. But every purchase follows one terrifying rule—for every gain Ethan receives, ruin must fall somewhere else. A billionaire might lose everything overnight, corporations could collapse, and entire markets may crash just to balance the price of his fortune. As Ethan rises from a broke nobody to a man who can shake the global economy with pocket change, he slowly realizes a horrifying possibility: he may not be the one controlling the system. Instead, the God of Ruin might be using him, and every coin he spends could be buying the world’s destruction.

They burned his house, broke his bloodline, and buried the truth in ice for a hundred years. Evander Vornic was never supposed to inherit anything — not the title, not the power, not the war. But when the Empire's soldiers slaughter his family on the night of his dragon binding ceremony, a dying hand forces an ancient ice dragon's bond onto him. Now it's killing him slowly, freezing him from the inside, and the only cure lies buried in the heart of the empire that wants him dead. To survive, Evander must become someone else entirely, earn the trust of the very people who destroyed everything he loved, and steal back the knowledge to save his own life. But the deeper he digs, the more he realizes his family wasn't the first. And somewhere beyond the edge of the living world, a trapped dragon god has been waiting a hundred years for someone strong enough to free it...or wield it. Revenge will cost him everything and power will cost him more. And when an empire's oldest sin comes due, Evander will have to choose: become the weapon they always feared, or break the cycle that made monsters of them all. The ice remembers. So does the dragon. And neither one forgives easily.

I am Alsean Zeffran. That day, the doctor informed me that my heart had only six months left. Before I could even digest that bitter reality, the world crushed me further. I was detained at the hospital because I had no money, brutally dumped by Laura, the woman I loved, and then fired without pay by the project foreman under a heavy New York downpour. Penniless, hopeless, and carrying a body that grew weaker by the minute, I found a mysterious old man dying in a street gutter. At my lowest point, I still chose to extend a helping hand. I cared for him until he drew his last breath. In return, he left me a dull black ring. As I lamented my fate and slipped the cold ring onto my ring finger, a ghostly voice suddenly echoed inside my head: "Welcome, Heir to the Ring of Prosperity." Now, held in my hand is a mysterious power bringing boundless wealth. Will I be able to rise, turn my fate around, and silence those who once looked down on me, or does this ring hide a dark secret that demands a price far higher than my own life?

"Every single newcomer job applicant disappeared in about a week without exception." A 25 year old part time worker, lured by the hourly wages, decides to take a job at a convenience store with a story in the middle of a notorious suicide spot... after working at night he finally realized that the shop had many mystical and difficult to explain events that made him have to unravel the mystery in the shop.

"The sun is down. Your system is mine now." Archer Thomas was never meant to be a saint. He is a broke genius trapped in the decaying slums of Sector 2, working a dead-end job at a car showroom just to afford the illegal synthetic serum keeping his dying mother alive. But when the corrupt Iron Core Council signs her execution order to cover up a high-stakes military data leak, a cold, mechanical entity wakes up inside Archer’s blood—the Sovereign System. The rules of survival are instantly rewritten; by day, he is a restricted, fragile civilian bleeding from a fifty-percent lung penalty, but the moment the sun dips below the Manhattan horizon, he becomes Dallas. Armed with liquid red eyes, an unchained crimson aura, and a rogue federal captain named Nora Barrett by his side, he launches a brutal, calculated audit against the city's rulers, turning military-grade plasma weapons into harmless scrap metal to harvest survival points. However, as the system demands higher stakes and Councilor Gideon’s dark executive air fleet descends to enforce a terminal sector lockdown, Archer uncovers a terrifying truth hidden within the encrypted database: the Council didn't just build the core—they have been waiting for him to activate it. Trapped between a suspicious alliance with a federal precinct and the desperate need to protect his terrified younger brother, Ford, Archer must breach the high-security walls of Sector 1 before his own heart turns to ash.

For fifteen years, Ethan Vale lived inside a game. Eternal Ascension of Tower once had hundreds of millions of players, but as the years passed, they disappeared one by one. Ethan remained until he became the only active player left. By the time he reached the 1,000th floor, he had achieved everything—Global Rank #1, the strongest guild, enormous wealth, unrivaled knowledge, and a legacy no player could surpass. Then the game asked him one final question. [Did you enjoy the game?] [Would you like to play another game?] Ethan chose yes. The update stopped at one percent. Three years later, Ethan has abandoned gaming. He works an ordinary job and spends most of his salary supporting his sick parents. He is still bullied, still overlooked, and still struggling to find meaning in his life. Then every screen in the world turns blue. [WORLD ANNOUNCEMENT] [THE GAME HAS UPDATED.] The game Ethan once conquered becomes reality. Millions awaken as players, Hunters, and guild members. Yet the former world's strongest player starts again at Level 1—with no recognized class and almost no power. His knowledge may be his greatest advantage, but this new world doesn't follow the rules he remembers. To survive, Ethan must climb again. This time, however, the Tower is hiding something even he never knew.

After swearing allegiance to his country, Gilbert says no one dares not kill. Endowed with exceptional medical skills, he vows that there is no disease he cannot cure. As he holds his lover's hand, he swears that no one dares to harm her. With his Guardian Sword in hand, he aims to spread his love to the entire world.

A bloodline the world branded as poison was never a curse. It was a warning—and the thing it warned about is waking up. Cast out at fourteen for the taint in his blood, Kael Voss returns to a hometown in flames, tears apart the monsters that no soldier could stop, and vanishes before the awe-struck crowd can name him. He came home for a family reunion. He finds an empty house, a cold hearth, and his mother and sister gone—fled from a man who walks under the iron seal of the Purity Council. One slaughtered pack, one whispered name, and the city remembers the Voss curse all over again. But the Council fears the wrong thing. The techniques Kael's hidden mentors drilled into him on nameless mountains are not the work of any school—they are the raw fundamentals that the world's so-called supreme powers spent lifetimes chasing. And his father, presumed dead sixteen years, left a journal that should not exist, recovered from inside a creature of the Abyss. Rivals scheme, Rifts split open along a deliberate line, and a hidden hand moves families like pieces on a board. Each life Kael saves raises his legend. Each truth he uncovers tightens the noose. Caught between a sealed town and the shadows of his own past, Kael must decide—stay the disposable tainted nobody the world wrote off, or become the force his mentors forged and his enemies dread, and risk waking the very thing the taint was warning the world to fear.
