Do I Love Her?

Betrayed and humiliated. Robert was seen as the student who fell from grace after the death of his adopted father. Many referred to him as the Emmetts’ adopted bastard. Some saw him as the bad luck that led to the death of his adopted father. All of these put Robert in a downtrodden position where he is mocked and trampled upon by any and everyone. His girlfriend dumped him for his cousin, and the Emmetts expelled him and his adopted family into abject poverty. Unknown to everyone, he wasn’t a nobody; he was the Graham heir and the most powerful man in the world as the Master of the Council of Rulers. Just one phone call, and Robert was back to who he truly was and his mind is set on one thing—VENGEANCE!

Kaito Miyahara is almost done with university. Only one final project remains, one that he has been putting off for three years. If he doesn't start now, he will be stuck in university for one more year, something that will further tarnish his resume. In a future where a simple failure is enough to destroy your career, he can't let that happen, but he can't think of anything. Miraculously, he runs into Sanae and Risa, two girls whose sole goal is to become idols. For Kaito, the only way of making it work in the current world is to think outside the box. To think big. To think galactically. And so he becomes the manager of the first, galactical idol group: Blostars. — Edited by RedPandaChick Cover art by @retrosensei on Instagram Follow me @VidalSosin on Twitter for updates New chapter every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 15:00 UTC

Ethan Cross thought his life was good. He had a girl he loved, a good job, and a chance to run his family's business one day. Then, in one week, he lost it all. His girlfriend Vanessa left him for his best friend Victor. Victor set him up to take the blame for stolen money. His uncle took the family business. His name was trashed, and his own family turned away from him. He had nothing left. Standing in the rain, at his lowest point, Ethan was ready to give up. Then a strange screen popped up in front of his eyes: [Ultimate Compensation System activated.] [The more you suffer, the more you get back.] From then on, the System paid him back for every loss, every hurt, and every betrayal. It gave him cash, new skills, deep knowledge, and later, powers no normal man could have. With his one true friend, Liam Chen, by his side, Ethan built his life back up from zero. He cleared his name. He made his first million. He built a company of his own. But as Ethan grew rich and strong, he learned the truth. His family's fall was not bad luck. A big company called Vale Industries had planned it. Behind Vale stood a hidden group called Black Serpent, tied to the Great Families who run the world in secret. His parents did not just die. They were killed. His whole life had been part of someone else's plan.

Eighteen-year-old Chidi is the joke of the hunter community. While others blast monsters with lightning and fire, Chidi’s only job is picking up the trash they leave behind. Still, he works himself to the bone to buy expensive magic potions for his girlfriend, Amina. But during a dangerous dungeon raid, Amina and a rich bully named Tunde trap Chidi inside a crumbling boss room to save their own skins. Left to be crushed in the dark, Chidi’s heartbreak unlocks something forbidden: The Sovereign System. Suddenly, glowing blue screens fill his vision. He can see hidden stats, enemy weaknesses, and the evolutionary paths of every item on Earth. That rusty five-dollar blade in the trash? His system can upgrade it into a legendary sword of gods. The weak scavenger boy is gone. The Sovereign Overlord has awakened, and it’s time for everyone who laughed at him to pay.

Seven years ago, a blue screen appeared before every human on Earth and promised a new beginning. Within a day, millions were dead. Now everyone has a System: a level, a rank, a worth measured in numbers. Everyone except Kael Draven. No level. No skills. No place in a world that treats the powerless as disposable. He has survived seven years in the ruins of New York by noticing what others miss, and he is still searching for the little sister who vanished the night his parents died. Then his team abandons him inside a dungeon that was never supposed to wake up. Kael studies the monster hunting him, finds the one thing it fears, and lives. And as it falls, the System flashes a message it was never meant to show: [WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW SUBJECT TO ACCESS THE CORE.] Why would the most powerful force on Earth be afraid of a man it cannot even see? Before he can find out, he touches a black relic older than the System itself, and every awakened user for miles loses their powers for three terrifying seconds. By morning, he is the most wanted man in Ironhaven. But Kael is done being the hunted. With a disgraced commander, a runaway scientist, and a loyal giant who owes him his life, he starts pulling at a conspiracy buried in the night his family was murdered. Every lie he exposes makes him more dangerous. Every rule he breaks makes the System more afraid. Everyone else grows stronger by obeying the System. Kael grows stronger by finding where it breaks. It named him humanity's greatest threat. It has no idea what it just created.

"Three jobs. Endless sacrifices. A dying father. Yet my wife emptied our savings for her secret lover. When the hospital demanded another $800,000, she looked me in the eyes and said coldly: 'Sell your kidney. You only need one.' Desperate, I went to the underground broker. During the examination, an old professor saw the jade pendant around my neck... and suddenly knelt before me. Now everything has changed. The same hospital that wanted to throw my father out... now belongs to someone they never expected. And tomorrow, my cheating wife will walk in with her lover — ready to mock the 'worthless husband.' She has no idea what she's about to face."

Once, Ethan Ashford gave everything for the woman he loved. In return, she betrayed him. Veronica Harrington secretly gave the resources she took from Ethan to her lover, Damien Blackwood, the so-called Chosen One, the Protagonist, the Child of Luck, or whatever else. While Damien and other protagonists took countless "fortuitous encounters" to become the world's heroes, Ethan became the villain everyone despised. Betrayed and tortured, his family was destroyed, his bloodline exterminated, and he died filled with hatred and regret. But fate wasn't finished with him. Ethan awakened a hundred years in the past, before every tragedy began. And that too with a heaven-defying System, called the Villain System, that could give him rewards for changing his own destiny and destroying these protagonists' fortunes. This time, Ethan knew every opportunity the Chosen Ones would obtain, every scheme hidden in the shadows, and every betrayal waiting for him. Did the Divine Healer descend from the mountains? "I'll steal his inheritance." Is the King of Soldiers returning to reclaim his glory? "I'll crush him before he even rises." The destined Son of Fortune? The Heavenly Genius? The Peerless Sword Saint? I'll take every one of their opportunities and leave them with nothing. "As for the heroines who once stood beside those protagonists... If they deserve redemption, they'll stand by my side instead. If they choose my enemies, they'll share their fate." In this life, Ethan would no longer be the stepping stone beneath the protagonists' feet. He would become the nightmare that hunts every Chosen One. After all... "Who says villains are destined to lose?"

Ethan Su awakened what everyone called the worst Class in history: Farmer. E-rank talent. No combat power. No future. At least, that was what everyone believed. What they didn’t know was that Ethan’s Farmer Class was Unique—and Evolvable. His crops had a perfect survival rate. His harvests multiplied tenfold. His abilities could evolve. And inside his territory, even powerful enemies could not touch him. In a post-apocalyptic world where monsters roam beyond the walls and real food has nearly vanished, Ethan’s “useless” Class becomes something priceless. His first cabbage sells for a fortune, and suddenly corporations, powerful families, and Awakened elites begin paying attention. But money is only the beginning. As Ethan gathers Evolution Energy, unlocks stronger abilities, expands his territory, and rises through the ranks, the Farmer everyone mocked begins turning barren land into his domain—and weakness into absolute power. They laughed when he awakened the world’s worst Class. Soon, they will learn that this Farmer is unstoppable.

When the world abandons you, the void is the only power left to embrace. Felix was always the outsider. Betrayed by his noble fiancée and left for dead in a bleeding ditch by his own family, his life ends in cold mud. But instead of death, he wakes up in the middle of the sacred Beast Pact ritual, trapped inside a mangled, glowing beast that everyone calls a useless defect. While others claim magnificent fire dragons and golden lions, Felix bonds with a creature that looks like a dying shadow. What the elite lords do not realize is that this defect is not a broken monster. It is the Void Sovereign, an ancient cosmic entity capable of devouring power, souls, and entire realms. Driven by a cold need for revenge, Felix endures brutal underground dungeons, emerging scarred, ruthless, and ready to make his betrayers bleed. But the void comes with a dangerous price. The entity wants full control of his body, and every time Felix devours a enemy, he risks losing his own mind to the black abyss. To survive the rising cults and impending shadow war, Felix must balance on the thin line between savior and monster.
