I Became The Ugly Lady

Desmond is just another broke nursing student, trying to balance survival with his hidden passion—programming. Out of sleepless nights and a mind restless with possibility, he builds something extraordinary: a program he calls The Algorithm. At first, it’s a harmless tool, predicting the outcomes of football matches with eerie precision. But soon, it begins to do more. The Algorithm starts reaching beyond sports, predicting reality itself—betrayals, crimes, murders—before they happen. What seemed like Desmond’s way out of poverty quickly becomes a curse. His friendships fracture, loyalties twist, and the wrong people begin to take notice. A mysterious figure known only as The Arbiter circles closer, determined to control the program at all costs. As danger closes in, Desmond is forced into a relentless struggle: should he profit from the knowledge, destroy the creation that defines him, or fight to protect it from those who would use it for darker purposes? But one question haunts him most—if the future can be predicted, can it ever be changed?

“What do you mean? What cyst?” Sebastian blinked, staring at the small screen on his phone, feeling his heart beat faster. The emergency information he had just received made him pause in front of his door, but then he ran to the car without thinking. He knew that something serious had happened to his wife. He had to get to the hospital immediately. His voice was hoarse as he spoke to the hospital operator, trying to get a grasp of the situation as quickly as possible. “This is a complication… You need to come to the hospital immediately and sign the consent form for surgery as soon as possible.” The voice was flat but urgent.

Once the legendary God of Flame, He died fighting three Great Demon, only to awaken 1,300 years later in the body of a powerless young noble framed by his own family.

In the dying city of Camelot, magic is a divine weapon of the rich, and starvation is the reality of the poor. When a frail scribe is beaten to death for failing to pay the Blood Tithe, his body is hijacked by Brandon, a brilliant materials engineer and physicist from Earth. Waking up with a bleeding skull, a starving little sister, and an Inquisitor’s blade at his throat, Brandon realizes something that will change the world forever: Magic isn't a god-given miracle. It is a highly volatile state of energy that perfectly obeys the laws of thermodynamics. Armed with a parasitic magic brand, an unyielding will, and the Periodic Table, Brandon will not just survive this dark world. He will industrialize it. From crafting Aether-powered sniper rifles out of scrap pipes to building mechanical titans that rival dragons, Brandon will ignite a scientific revolution that burns the old gods to ash.

Most people live their lives without ever knowing what lingers after death. Raito was never meant to be one of the ones who do. Three years ago, a night meant for stars and quiet laughter ended in blood. Since then, Raito has lived a half-life—haunted, isolated, and unseen by the world he no longer fully belongs to. Ghosts roam the city, born from human obsessions too strong to die, yet for reasons he cannot explain, they sense him only when he dares to acknowledge their existence. To them, he is a blind spot. To himself, he is a survivor who should have died. Beneath the surface of ordinary life, a secret war is being fought. The Ghost Hunters Organization (GHO) operates in the shadows, wielding cursed weapons born from the obsessions of fallen spirits, hunting ghosts before their grief and rage evolve into something far worse. When Raito is pulled into this hidden world, a terrifying truth begins to surface—one that ties his survival, his strange condition, and the death of his childhood friend together in ways he never imagined. Because some ghosts do not move on. Some protect. Some wait. And some… live on inside the living. As Raito is forced to confront the dead he carries, the trauma he buried, and the monsters born from human obsession, he must decide whether strength is worth the cost—when every step forward drags the weight of the dead along with him. In a world where ghosts are not born from malice but from love, regret, and obsession, the greatest horror is not what refuses to die… …but what refuses to let go.

As Alonso dove deeper into the mystery of his attempted murder, he unearthed secrets that threatened to shatter everything he had built with Perry.

Her mother covered her mouth as tears filled her eyes. “This… this cannot be real,” she said. “The specialists told us your nerves were permanently damaged.” Her father approached more slowly, his expression controlled. He looked at Sonia’s legs carefully, then at the crowd gathering around us. “This is unexpected,” he said thoughtfully. “Very unexpected. How did this happen?” Sonia looked slightly overwhelmed by the attention. “I… I don’t know,” she admitted honestly. “I woke up this morning and I could feel my legs again. I stood up, and they supported me.” Gasps erupted around us. “A miracle…” “Did the family secretly hire someone?” I stood beside her the entire time. Yet it was as if I did not exist. Conversations flowed around me, not to me. I was present, but irrelevant. “What a shame,” someone whispered nearby. “Now that she can walk again, she is still tied to that useless man.” “She deserves better than him.” “When she was crippled, he was suitable. Now? Not anymore.” I smiled faintly to myself. When she could not walk, they pitied her and mocked her marriage. Now that she could stand again, they were already calculating her value. Sonia heard the whispers too. I saw her shoulders stiffen slightly, though she tried to maintain her composure.
