Detective Void

Denig Sherr, an alien with supreme abilities that elevated him to godhood over his planet Thera, Earth, and the entire universe, should have inherited the throne after his father, King Sheg Sherr, perished. Instead, he awakens on Earth as Richard, stripped of his memories and living among humans—William and Alison, the latter igniting feelings in him that transcend mere friendship. His past remains a void until Vonera, his scorned ex-wife from Thera, shatters his fragile human existence with a devastating truth: Denig's own half-brother Terig betrayed him. Despite wielding the blue flames of Idahocles that once made him invincible, Denig fell before Terig's red flames—an equally divine power that his treacherous sibling used to steal the throne and cast him into oblivion, powerless and broken. Vonera arrives with Theora, both refugees who fled when Terig's ruthless coup tore Thera apart. They have watched Denig from the shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike. Now they thrust him into a brutal awakening, forcing his memories to resurface through agonizing trials. But Terig refuses to let his brother reclaim what he stole. He unleashes god-like alien assassins to Earth, each wielding abilities that rival Denig's own, turning the conflict into a cosmic war that threatens to consume both worlds. Can Denig overcome his brother's superior forces, reclaim his stolen throne, and prevent Terig from unleashing total destruction upon Earth and Thera alike?

In the Great Yan Empire, the Long Clan stood as the pillars of the north. Their young heir, Long Chen,was its brightest star—a genius born with the "Primordial Marrow"—a gift seen once in a thousand years. However, his brilliance planted a seed of envy in the heart of most elders. On his sixteenth birthday, the heavens turned red. His family was butchered by a coalition led by his father’s sworn brother, Wei Jue, who tore what he believed to be the Primordial marrow from Chen’s body and left him for dead in the Forbidden God-Grave Valley. Deep within the valley's lethal mists, Long Chen was rescued by Grandmaster Mo, a legendary figure who had ascended past the mortal realm centuries ago. Under Mo's training, Long Chen didn't just rebuild his broken body; he cultivated the "Chaotic Origin Scripture," a forbidden technique that allows him to devour the energy of his enemies and the “Heaven-Devouring Void Script” a relic from bygone age, capable of swallowing entire realms. A decade later, a mysterious youth enters the capital. He carries no banner and wears no crest, but his eyes hold the coldness of a thousand winters. The traitor now sits on the throne, believing the Long line is extinct forgetting that when you strike at a dragon and fail to kill it, it returns to burn your world to ashes. Long Chen begins his march, reclaiming the Long Clan's ancestral relics one by one. To the world, he is an unstoppable force of nature; to the traitors, he is a ghost from the grave who has come to collect a blood debt that can only be paid in full.

SYNOPSIS Beneath the shimmering lights of a city steeped in sin, Dante Rossi is a detective living in the shadows. He has successfully infiltrated the Valeriano family—the most feared mafia syndicate in existence—with a single mission: to gather the evidence needed to tear them down from the inside. As the personal bodyguard to Isabella Valeriano, the Don’s only daughter, Dante expects his greatest challenge to be the arrogance of a pampered heiress. However, behind the palace-like walls of the mansion, Isabella is no fragile doll. She is a woman of lethal intelligence, weaving her own web of betrayal. Isabella has known Dante’s true identity since day one, but rather than eliminating him, she transforms him into the primary pawn in her plan to overthrow her own father and avenge a childhood tragedy buried in blood. In this dangerous game of cat and mouse, the line between duty and desire begins to blur. Dante finds himself trapped between his oath to the law and a dark attraction to the woman he is meant to imprison. Meanwhile, Isabella begins to question if she can truly love someone destined to destroy her family’s legacy. When the night of the grand gala arrives, their secrets explode amidst the thunder of gunfire. Facing the barrel of a gun, Isabella and Dante must confront a bitter reality: in the world of the mafia, love is the deadliest weakness, and the only way to survive is to betray one another before the world destroys them both.

Jasper had already died once. In his previous life, he was a rising actor whose career was destroyed after he was falsely accused of murder. Betrayed by the people closest to him, he eventually died with nothing left behind. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself inside a cultivation novel he had read from beginning to end. Worse, he had become Jasper Stoneheart, a useless young master destined to die during the early stages of the original story. But Jasper knew the plot. He knew which families would rise and fall, which characters would become legends, and which places would eventually turn into killing grounds. With that knowledge, he decided that his second life would be different. He didn't care about becoming the strongest cultivator in existence. After everything he had experienced, all Jasper wanted was a peaceful life where nobody knew his name. With the help of a mysterious system and a strange blindfold containing the Eye of the Void, Jasper began changing his fate. Six years later, he finally believed he had succeeded. Living as a blind man in a quiet village, Jasper had a loving wife, a daughter, and the peaceful home he had always wanted. His cultivation remained hidden, and the world had forgotten he existed. Unfortunately, Jasper had made one mistake. He never realized that the village he escaped to wasn't outside the story. It was at the very heart of it. His gentle wife hides a terrifying identity, the original protagonist is still following his destined path, and the empire Jasper unknowingly lives within is destined to become the greatest battlefield in the novel. Jasper thought he had escaped his fate. Instead, he became the Emperor standing at its center.

For seventeen years, Kael Ashryn has lived as an outcast in the Kingdom of Valenor. Branded the "Cursed Child" after his parents died under mysterious circumstances, he is blamed for every tragedy that befalls his village. Shunned, ridiculed, and denied every chance to prove himself, Kael clings to the hope that one day he will earn the acceptance he has always longed for. That hope is destroyed when a sacred relic vanishes from the royal vault. Framed by fabricated evidence and abandoned by everyone he trusted, Kael is convicted of treason and sentenced to a public execution.

Yet every new power he gains strengthens the whispers of darkness within him, threatening to consume his humanity. As kingdoms fall into war and ancient monsters awaken, Kael must master the shadows without surrendering to them. To save the continent from a returning nightmare, he must uncover the truth before history repeats itself.

Once a ghost, always a ghost. Ethan Vale, a quiet locksmith in East London, hides from a past that officially doesn’t exist. Years ago, he was an MI5 infiltration specialist — until a mission in Prague went wrong, his entire team was killed, and his name was erased. He’s lived in silence since. Until one rain-soaked night, a woman named Clara Daines bursts into his shop with a bleeding shoulder and a biometric case she claims holds evidence of a government conspiracy. Hours later, armed men arrive. Ethan’s calm life is shattered in seconds. When he opens the case, he finds something impossible — an active MI5 kill order with his name on it, dated that same day. Hunted by his own agency, Ethan partners with Detective Isla Hart, a sharp but idealistic investigator chasing a string of assassinations linked to a defunct MI5 unit known as Division 9 — the same unit Ethan once led. As Ethan unravels the mystery, he discovers Division 9 never truly ended — it evolved into The Consortium, a covert alliance manipulating London’s surveillance systems to engineer obedience. Every crime, every target, every “accident” is part of a digital control plan called Project Echelon II. The closer Ethan gets to the truth, the more he realizes: Division 9 didn’t just erase him. It rebuilt him — piece by piece. And now, the ghosts he buried are coming back… wearing his face. The final revelation will force Ethan to confront the deepest question of all: Is he still human — or just another trace in someone else’s code?
