I Grow Stronger By Eating

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

In the shimmering metropolis of Oakhaven, the elite live in glass towers while the "trash" survives in the soot below. Lucian Veyne is the king of that trash. To the world, he is a nameless scavenger, a beggar who collects aluminum cans and fixes broken phones in rain-slicked alleys. But Lucian has a secret: He owns the city’s darkness. Ten years ago, the Vale Family—owners of the city’s largest pharmaceutical empire—let his mother die on the hospital steps because she was "worthless." Since that day, Lucian hasn’t been looking for a job; he’s been building a system. Through the "Debt Web" (micro-loans to the desperate) and the "Whisper Network" (an army of invisible homeless spies), Lucian has quietly tethered every corrupt politician, crooked cop, and greedy CEO to his thumb. When Seraphina Vale, the arrogant heiress of the empire that killed his mother, publicly humiliates him, she triggers the final phase of his plan. She thinks she’s crushing a beggar. She doesn’t realize she’s just declared war on the man who already holds the keys to her father’s vault.

While the criminal was brutally killing me, my dad, the head of the criminal investigation division, and my mom, the chief forensic pathologist, were attending my brother Matthew Lambert’s match. In a bid for revenge, the criminal, who had once been captured by my dad, cut out my tongue and used my phone to call him. My dad only said one thing before hanging up. "No matter what’s going on, Matthew’s match is the top priority today!" The criminal sneered, "Seems I’ve kidnapped the wrong person. I thought they would love their biological son more!" At the crime scene, my parents were shocked by the brutal state of the body and condemned the cruelty of the killer. However, they did not realize that the horrifically mutilated corpse was their own son.

In a world filled with war, the only place you can take refuge is where war merges with sanctity. Altair did exactly that. Leaving his past behind, he entered the tower, the heart of Aculon. What will happen now, what he will experience, whom he will save and whom he will kill, is up to him, but one thing is certain: he will reach the top of the tower and take his rightful place on the throne.
