Hot Among Us

Edgar, a young slave, gets slapped into the creepy valley of vipers, a place of utter darkness. His failure to return might not end the world full of freakish cultivators, but it would mean Fabby, his elder sister, has to spend her slave life alone among smiling predators that threaten her life and honor. But how can a cripple and an inexperienced Edgar survive the fall, then climb the valley that not even the most heinous criminals of the world would choose for a hiding spot? Even if he somehow does, will he continue to live as a slave, or will he fight for his and his sister’s ‘freedom’- the word a slave never even dared to whisper and live another day? Will Edgar keep swimming in suffering, or will he sink his teeth into the sharks that surround the siblings? “One day, I’ll set up an inn, and people will call me the Lady Innkeeper Fabby!” said Fabby, with her pretty nose turned up a bit. “Sounds cool, but what about me?” the innocent younger brother, Edgar, pulled her skirt and asked while licking on tamarind candy. “You’ll be a waiter, of course,” she assured. “Eh? Waiter?" his cute little expression warped very fast. "No, I don’t want it.” “You won't be a regular waiter but the head waiter!” “Still, no,” he shook his little head a little too quickly. “Why don’t you be the head waitress, and I’ll be the innkeeper!” “Huh? Then what’s the point of me dreaming of becoming an innkeeper, you idiot!” she caught his ear for a good bit of twisting. "Ow, ow, ow!"

In a distant galaxy, where the myth of the "Ancient Humans"—a mighty race that vanished without a trace—still haunts alien civilizations, a discovery shakes the balance. Archaeologists from the conservative Caledonian Kingdom find Ethan, an Ancient Human, preserved in a cryo-capsule. Instantly, Ethan becomes the center of attention: to Caledonia, he is the incarnation of their ancient god, a symbol of divine power they can claim; to forbidden cults and the galactic mafia, he is a Satan to be destroyed or his DNA sold to the highest bidder. Amidst this chaos, Ethan, who is not divine at all, sees a golden opportunity to pursue his personal agenda. With sharp wit and charisma, Ethan skillfully plays his role as the prophesied "heir," exploiting the beliefs and fears surrounding him. He begins to gather loyal followers from various strata of Caledonian society, including curious scholars, skeptical guards, and dissatisfied nobles. Behind his divine mask, Ethan relentlessly studies the secrets of ancient Caledonian technology, searching for traces of the old human civilization that might hold the key to his species' revival. Every threat from Satan hunters or DNA traffickers he turns into a demonstration of "divine power" or an opportunity to strengthen his position. As time passes, Ethan begins to uncover the truth behind the disappearance of the Ancient Humans and how deeply Caledonia is involved in guarding those secrets. His discoveries reveal technology far beyond the current understanding of the galaxy, giving him the tools to realize his vision. With an expanding network of followers and profound knowledge, Ethan leads a revolutionary movement. He does not wish to resurrect his species as worshipped gods or feared demons, but rather as a new, independent force, ready to take their place among the stars and reshape the destiny of the galaxy.

Humans were living peacefully on Earth for millions and millions of years until the day unknown monsters who called themselves Sulckers, invaded them from beyond space. They were fast, ruthless, and cruel monsters ready to claim earth realm for themselves. Humans were being slaughtered mercilessly by the seconds and civilization came crumbling in the face of the invaders. However, just when humans were on the verge of going extinct and nonexistent, a heaven-sent phenomenon occurred. A small group of humans with awoken special abilities came to light and shared their abilities to the world.

He did not care if the prayer stole precious seconds from the timer. Between speaking to God and the damnation the system promised at zero, there was no question which came first. “Dear Lord,” he murmured, “Ye who see all hearts and weigh all sins… hear me now as I stand at the threshold of damnation. What I am about to do is cruel and unforgiving. A stain no river may wash from my hands. Yet, if this evil must be borne so that greater horrors may perish, let that burden fall upon me. “I know the gates of Hell stand open before my feet, and should this act be the step that leads me through them… so be it. Let history curse my name—if by my damnation, others are spared. “But Lord…” he continued quietly, “when the trumpets sound in the final days, when the dead rise and judgment cometh upon all souls, I ask only this of You: do not forget that I once wept for what I became. Do not forget that I hated the necessity of my hands. Don't forget that though I walked willingly into darkness, I did so that others may remain in the light. And if mercy exists even for the damned… then let me be counted among those shown pity. “For the sins I commit in Your name, for the evil I embrace in pursuit of a righteous end, and for the soul I surrender this night… I beg Your forgiveness.” He lifted his gaze and fixed Vir Ossium a death stare. “... Amen.” —————————————— Kael was just an ordinary guy—until the night he died. But instead of staying dead, he is thrown into a brutal death game. The rule is simple: Be the last Kamen Rider standing... by any means necessary.
