Future

Being wealthy is fun especially when you grew up as an orphan. But the seemingly flashy and glamorous world of wealthy men has hidden secrets, so dark and so diabolical, and it took Oscar only one week to realise. Due to certain circumstances, and perhaps sheer luck, Oscar was lifted from a common employee to the CEO of a prestigious organisation. But while he tries to pay back those who wronged him in the past, Oscar is also faced with life-threatening situations. Tasked with finding his missing father and staying alive, Oscar couldn't tell whether he was better off wealthy or middle class. ______ The story starts like any other urban novel but proceeds slowly, leaving hints for future events to look forward to. The story is rated 18, but contains little to no s*x scenes. However gruesome and graphic fight scenes, socially intolerable habits including drug usage, may be included, but will not be praised or supported. Chapters will be uploaded daily before 17:00 UTC +01:00 Thank you for giving this book a try, and I will try to answer any questions I come across as comments.

In his past life, Han was a low-level worker who died as meat shield fodder for the beloved "Hero" Radiant Leon during a monster outbreak. When he dies, he regresses back 100 days before the Great Mana Collapse—the apocalyptic event that turns the surface world into a frozen, acid-raining hellscape. ​Retaining his memories, Han awakens a God-Tier Construction System and two game-changing abilities: the power to see the future value of any land, and an infinite subspace Warehouse that freezes time for anything stored inside. While the royal family and high-ranking Guild Masters drain the kingdom's treasury to build flimsy wooden and stone surface bunkers, Han buys the most mocked piece of real estate in the kingdom—a "cursed," monster-infested mine—for pennies on the gold piece. ​As the 100-day countdown ticks away, Han stockpiles millions of tons of fresh food and builds the ultimate subterranean paradise complete with hot springs, luxury apartments, and automated death traps. When the sky breaks and acid snow buries the surface, the elite class flees for their lives—only to find Han standing behind a magical security door with a lease agreement, a smile, and an absurdly high rent invoice.

May 14, 1945. Work carried out by the Third Reich was brought to light and made it possible to reveal a secret buried for too long: humanity was not alone on Earth. From this discovery were born protest movements against races that had just come out of the shadows. Fifteen years after the capitulation of Germany and its allies, the outbreak of World War III once again plunged the whole world into chaos. Twenty years later, the period that survivors renamed Dark Silence ended hostilities. In 1983, an agreement was established between human governments and nonhuman rulers. All beings endowed with intelligence created Cicerone, in order to maintain and guarantee interspecific peace. The future was assured, and in everyone was born the desire to move forward, forgetting the grudges of the past. Unfortunately, the bitterness never completely dies, and within the nascent rebellions reappears a prophecy, which can overthrow the powerful of this world. One of them wants more than anything to get his hands on this legend, before others seize it before him. He is capable of all madness to avoid his fall, even if it means pushing his prey to its last entrenchments, until it loses a part of her... and steals a piece of her soul.

When seventeen-year-old Oberon Faewild awakens the mysterious Pathway of Dreams, his future appears ruined.

Branded as a Mystic with little combat potential, Oberon resigns himself to an ordinary life. Everything changes when his passive skill pulls him into the Dream Realm—an ancient plane abandoned by civilizations long forgotten. Hidden villages, impossible creatures, mysterious towers, and priceless relics lie scattered across this forgotten world, waiting to be discovered. As Oberon uncovers the Dream Realm's secrets, he realizes his Path is far more extraordinary—and far more dangerous—than anyone could have imagined. But every secret comes with a price. Powerful organizations, ancient beings, and the mysteries surrounding the Dream Realm begin to converge upon him. To survive the Void, protect those he loves, and uncover the truth behind his Path, Oberon must journey through worlds where dreams and reality are separated by only the thinnest of boundaries.
