Hidden Gem

SYNOPSIS: THE GLASS GOD: Heir of the living Grid In the neon-drenched spires of Lystria, magic isn't a gift—it’s a utility. Controlled by the Circuit Crown, the Aether Grid powers everything from kitchen lights to the minds of the elite. Elion Vale was a nobody, a "Null-born" scrap-worker until a brutal assault left him for dead with a skull full of illegal crystal-tech shards. He didn't die. He synced. Now, Elion can see the code of reality. He can hack the thoughts of kings, rewrite the laws of physics, and weaponize the very network that enslaves his people. But the Grid is a living, ancient entity, and it wants its new host to shed his skin. As Elion rises from the gutters to challenge the gods of technology, he faces a terrifying cost: for every miracle he performs, a piece of his memory—and his love for the girl he died to save—is deleted forever.

Kai had always been seen as the odd, fragile boy at school—brilliant, but never respected. The only warmth he ever received came from a popular girl he believed was truly genuine. What he never realized was that she had only been using him all along. When Kai finally gathered the courage to propose, he was mocked, humiliated, and told he would never amount to anything. But everything changed just two days later. At one of the city’s most prestigious charity galas, Kai appeared—not as the weak outcast they remembered, but as the young CEO of a world-renowned company that dominates the global health industry.

Alex Chen mops TechNova’s office’s polished floors in the busy heart of New York City. He is just another nameless janitor to the busy workers who are hurrying by, someone to be laughed at or ignored. They are unaware that a man of extraordinary power and influence lies beneath this simple guise. Alex was raised to be a leader because he was the heir to the old Phoenix Clan. In any case, a severe fight for control constrained him in banishment, abandoning all that he knew, including Elena, the lady he cherished. In the mountains of Tibet, Alex studied under a reclusive healer for years, becoming an expert in both martial arts and medicine. In the shadows, he fabricated the Shadow Circle, a secret network so huge and compelling that even New York's most remarkable figures murmur its name in wonder. Alex has since returned to take back what is his. Elena is involved in a relationship with Nicholas Vega, the ruthless heir of the Scorpion Syndicate, as the rival Syndicate's hold on Chinatown has grown. Covering his real character, Alex carries on with an apparently typical life as a janitor while plotting his vengeance.

In the Xuanhuang world, the sky had shattered centuries ago, leaving behind the "Celestial Fracture" that poisoned the world's energy and constrained the path of cultivation. Lin Feng, a weak and ailing mine slave, was accidentally struck by a mysterious stone from a meteorite. This stone turned out to be a "Heaven's Core Shard"—a fragment of the broken sky—that fused with his soul and granted him eyes capable of "Deconstructing All Laws." With his newfound ability, he saw the world not as a mystery, but as a collection of puzzles that could be taken apart and reassembled. From the lowliest kicking technique to forgotten ancient legacies, he could comprehend the essence of everything. However, this power made him a target for many factions: orthodox sects seeking to exploit him, wicked cultivators wanting to steal his soul core, and ancient beings awakened from slumber as he began to "repair" the damaged sky. His journey was not just one to become the strongest, but also to become the "Heavenly Repairman." Each step he took transformed the world, creating new cultivation arts, revolutionary artifacts, and ultimately, posing the ultimate question: should the shattered sky be restored to its original state, or reassembled into something entirely new?

"I conquered nations and slaughtered gods, yet I returned too late to save the only woman I ever loved." Five years ago, Alex was forced to leave his wife, Sarah, to protect her from his enemies. His entire city considered him a coward who ran away from his responsibilities because he vanished without leaving any clues about his whereabouts.

The homecoming ceremony which should have brought him joy instead presented him with his worst possible dream. The Forbidden Dark Arts practicing Mafia Don who controls the city operations as its crime lord spent his hidden life as a secret Dark Arts practitioner who destroyed Sarah. The demon used her body to manipulate her power because he needed her to achieve his demonic cultivation he ripped her soul from her body and left her a hollow comatose shell. Sarah's parents who now kneel before her torturer demand Alex to beg the Don for mercy because they want to protect their family name and they blame him for the disaster that occurred. The people who look at Alex see him as a beggar. They have no idea they are spitting in the face of a God. Alex isn't here to negotiate. He isn't here to explain. He is here to turn the city into a graveyard. The Don believes he is the hunter? He is about to learn that against a Dragon, he is nothing but prey. "You stole her soul? Then I will burn your entire world to ashes to get it back."

[🥉 #10 System in my real life 🥉 ]"I don't have any powers and I don't want any." Victor snorted. "Well, there is no turning back now. At this stage, you can't control your primal instincts and your will to morph. Although, they are vital for a shape-changer." Maks's eyes rounded, pacing back and forth, "I can't control my primordial instinct..." He said. "It's primal_" "They're the same thing!" He yelled back. He was going to freak out if he found himself in a situation where he couldn't help himself. He gazed at his hands. Then he started slowly. "This is your first and least level of cultivation, you'll have to keep going."

The man let out a sudden laugh, broken and relieved, that escaped from deep in his chest. Tears began to fill his eyes, joy replacing the panic that had consumed him moments before. “Five million bitcoin,” he declared, his voice shaking with emotion. “That will be your reward.” Lucas blinked slowly, trying to process the words. “Five million bitcoin?” he asked cautiously as he did not even know the worth of it in dollars. “What does that even mean? Can I at least get a decent meal with that tonight?” The young woman swallowed hard, still staring at him, her lips trembling slightly. “It means,” she said softly, “your life has just changed forever.” Lucas frowned, confusion and disbelief across his face. “How?” he asked, his voice barely a whisper. She hesitated, taking a deep breath before speaking again. “Five million bitcoin is worth Three hundred thirty-five billion, eight hundred thirty-one million, six hundred fifty thousand dollars. ” Lucas froze completely. The world spun beneath him. His vision blurred. 335, 831, 650, 000.00 dollars?? The sound of rain outside disappeared, all he could hear was the sound of the figure echoing in his ear.

“Anyone in there?” He asked about the hundredth time before he finally decided to push the door open.“Oh my God!” Tyler was shocked at what he saw. “This can't be true!” His eyes went wide as he saw his wife Elena in a tight embrace with a man who kissed her passionately with their tongues playing with each other, touching every inch of her body as she unbuckled his belt quickly.“What the hell?” Tyler asked with watery eyes.“What the fuck is going on here?” Tyler's jaw dropped, still in the shock of seeing Elena moaning to the touch of another man. He'd loved her with everything he had but it still wasn't enough to keep her loyal.

The continent of Elarion is dying, suffocating beneath a three-sided war. In the North, Aurellian technologies raise walls of iron. In the East, the Kaijin code of honor demands blood. And in the South, Ruzkai axes wait to burn what remains. Amid this noise, there is Ganda. He is not the hero promised by prophecy. He is merely a casualty of war, his body shattered. Three days of isolation in the darkness of an Aurellian prison left him crippled—but something within him could not be broken: Resonance. To Ganda, the world is never silent. Fortresses whisper of loose bolts. Bones complain before they snap. Even the heartbeat of an enemy betrays doubt. For a single bottle of medicine to numb the pain in his body, Ganda accepts a suicide contract from a Kaijin general: infiltrate the “Sun’s Throat,” an industrial stronghold of Aurellian guarded by Captain Valerius, the Iron Wall. No army. No allies. Only a rusted sword and the ability to hear fractures no one else can perceive. Ganda has no intention of winning the war. He only needs to find the one wrong note and break it. Because to Ganda, no structure is perfect. Everything can fall. You only need to know where to strike.

He still lives in a rented apartment but controls empires worth over a hundred billion dollars. They mocked and belittled him, but he was silent, not because he couldn't fight back, but because if he did, they would all be dead. Now, they've pushed him over the edge, and would soon realise that he had a hundred billion dollars in his rented apartment.
