Kael Von was living a normal life, until a strange accident, a mysterious man, and a midnight invitation changed everything. He’s taken to Eclipsera Academy, a secret school built to train warriors who fight monsters from the Abyss. While others possess the Pure Blood, Kael carries something no one has, DRAGON BLOOD.

In a world ruled by the iron law of Beast Taming, your summoned spirit is your entire worth. A high-ranking beast guarantees luxury, power, and respect. A low-ranking beast condemns you to a life of servitude. For seventeen years, Leo lived in the shadows of the city elite, waiting for the Day of Summoning to change his fate. Instead, it became his living nightmare. Humiliated in front of thousands, mocked by the person he trusted most, and left with a trash-tier ranking, Leo became the joke of the city. But when the elite discarded a dying, mutated defect beast and sentenced it to execution, Leo felt a strange, ancient resonance. He chose to form a soul pact with the creature, drawing the ultimate ridicule from the crowd. They thought he had sealed his own doom. They were wrong. What the world saw as a broken defect was actually a dormant, forbidden myth from the dawn of time. As the blood pact activates, a terrifying power begins to wake, and the people who trampled on Leo’s dignity are about to learn that some gods should never be angered.

Han Jihan, a bottom-tier Porter left for dead in a dungeon, survives by signing a "god-tier" contract with the mysterious Death Bank. Instead of mana, his powers cost lifespan and physical health, inflicting agonizing penalties like memory loss and organ failure. Guided by Luna, an Auditor who becomes his moral anchor, Jihan rises as the famous "Miracle Hunter." The triumph is short-lived. When Jihan finally clears his sister’s medical debt, the Bank cruelly seizes Luna as a "late fee." To save her, Jihan is forced to become a Reaper, hunting innocent Hunters to pay off the interest. From this rock bottom, Jihan orchestrates a brilliant rebellion. Using his Reaper authority, he gathers "Glitch Essence" to trigger a dimensional inflation, aiming to collapse the Death Bank’s economy from the inside out. As the Bank begins "liquidating" Earth, a physically decaying Jihan turns against the Director. Despite his hair turning white and his heart failing, he dismantles the system’s servers during an apocalyptic invasion. At the peak of the collapse, the system issues one final notification: his life debt has been replaced with an infinite bonus balance. Death Mortgage is a gritty, dark-comedy action story about a man sacrificing his humanity to destroy a cosmic corporate tyranny.

Tristan Asher died on the floor of the Apex Gate, betrayed by the one man he trusted, while the world he'd spent five years trying to save burned around him. Then he opened his eyes in his own apartment—twenty-three years old, five years younger, fourteen hours before the sky cracks open and everything begins again. This time, he's not here to be a hero. He's here to win. He has a list. Every gate, every betrayer, every mistake that cost him everything—he remembers all of it. What he doesn't expect is her. Kira Knight should be a stranger. Instead, he already knows her coffee order, the way her voice drops when she's trying not to cry, and exactly how she died in the life he's not going back to. He can't tell her any of that. He can't tell her he's already loved and lost her once, or that the System itself has a name for what he is—and a warning waiting underneath it: *you are not the first.* Someone else came back before him. Someone else had the same plan, the same knowledge, the same fourteen-hour head start. It didn't work. Now Tristan has seventy-two hours to become someone the apocalypse hasn't already beaten, a woman he isn't allowed to love yet, and a truth he's terrified to find out—why every version of this story before his has ended the same way.

Joshua Reed gave everything to the woman he loved. For six years, he worked himself to the bone, fed her family, built their home, and sacrificed every dream for their happiness. In return, they betrayed him. His wife cheated with the man she called her cousin. Her family treated him like a slave. And when the apocalypse came, they murdered him for the shelter he built with his own hands. But death isn't the end. Joshua wakes up 15 days before doomsday with all his memories intact, and a legendary Doomsday Shelter System. This time, he divorces his treacherous wife, claims a $100 million fortune, and begins constructing the strongest shelter on Earth. As toxic rain falls, monsters evolve, and civilization collapses, survivors will beg for a place behind his walls. His ex-wife thinks she's fighting for half his fortune. She has no idea that, when the world ends, money won't buy food, safety, or a second chance. Only Joshua's shelter can. And the people who betrayed him? They'll discover that the greatest punishment isn't death... It's being left outside when doomsday begins.

They drowned him because a boy like him wasn't supposed to take up space. William Cedrick is twenty-five, still stuck in his fourth year of college, still wearing the same cracked glasses, still the punchline of every joke on campus. Orphaned, broke, and bullied since the day he set foot in university, he has learned to make himself small — smaller than his body, smaller than his grades, smaller than his own name. He has nothing. No parents. No money. No one, except a girl named Natasya who bandages his wounds and never asks him to be grateful for it. Then his tormentors throw him into the sea and hold him under until he stops fighting. William dies. And something else wakes up in his place. He returns with a new face, a new body, and a new mind — and a system only he can hear, one that turns every lie told against him into cold, hard cash. The uglier the lie, the richer he gets. The crueler the liar, the faster their world burns down. Nobody recognizes him. Nobody remembers the fat, awkward boy they killed. They only see a stranger — flawless, brilliant, untouchable — walking back into their lives like a debt collector who has finally come to collect. This is not a story about becoming someone new. This is a story about becoming exactly who he always should have been — and making every single one of them pay, one lie at a time.

Lyra has spent her life unaware that she was once the Starborn Queen, a being whose soul was shattered to protect the realms from an ancient force called the Eclipse.

As forgotten lives, betrayals, alternate versions, ancient gods, and secrets emerge, Lyra and Kael must protect their love while confronting forces capable of destroying creation itself.

"If you've any conscience left in you, you'll understand that you deserve this." The prison doors closed behind him with those final words. Ethan Carvendish was the true heir of the Carvendish family, yet his existence was treated as nothing more than a stain that needed to be erased. "You're nothing but a criminal!" His father discarded him without hesitation. "I regret giving birth to you. I wish Charlie was my biological son!" His mother chose an adopted son over her own flesh and blood. "Charlie is my only brother, not a disgusting parasite like you." His sister looked at him with nothing but disgust. "It's just three years in prison. Charlie is delicate, unlike you." The woman he loved stood beside his adopted brother, forged evidence, framed him, and watched silently as he was condemned for a crime he never committed. For three years, he rotted in prison for someone's crime, while they celebrated his fall. The prison did not break him, it awakened him. Now Ethan has returned, not as the discarded heir… But as the Shadow Tyrant. A name whispered in fear. A power no one can control. A ruler the elite world cannot defy. "Son… We were wrong." The parents who abandoned him now kneel before him. "Ethan, sister regrets everything… please come back…" The sister who once saw him as nothing but a disgrace now begging for his attention. "Ethan… please give me another chance…" The woman who once sent him to prison crawls to his feet. But the Ethan Carvendish they betrayed died behind those prison walls, the one who returned is coldhearted. As the world trembles before the Shadow Tyrant, only one question remains. Will Ethan Carvendish reclaim everything that was stolen from him… or will shadow tyrant destroy them all without mercy?

"This world doesn't need a hero. A broken world just needs a ruler crueler than any monster out there." Jonathan was left bleeding out on the wet asphalt. His fiancée walked away arm-in-arm with a rich boss, right as the city sky ripped open and monsters rained down to swallow the streets. Just as his breath was fading, a cold, mechanical voice buzzed in his head: [Critical Condition. Initiating Alpha Evolution System Synchronization.] Instead of dying, Jonathan got back up. Saving the world? He couldn't care less. He used the system for one thing only: hunting. From the street thugs who stomped on his head, corrupt military generals acting tough, to giant apocalyptic monsters—he butchered them all. He drained their energy to evolve. Now, so-called 'Gods' from other dimensions are descending to Earth because they feel threatened. They think Jonathan is just a street rat who got lucky with a cheat. Let them come. Jonathan only sees them as one thing: dinner for his next evolution.
