Lie

Ten years ago, when the Abyss tore open the world and the greatest heroes fell, one young genius walked alone into the darkness and stole its Power Core. The invasion stopped. Humanity was saved. But the Core exacted a terrible price: it shattered his cultivation, crippled his body, and slowly devoured his soul. To keep the Abyss from reclaiming its heart, he refined the Core inside himself in secret for a decade, enduring mockery, abandonment, and the quiet contempt of everyone he had once protected. His fiancée lost respect. His family turned away. Former comrades called him a broken failure. The world forgot the savior who had paid everything. Then the refinement finished. Power returned—not as it once was, but far beyond any known realm. Kael Valerian was no longer human. He had become the Master of the Abyss. On the night of his awakening, he overheard the truth: his fiancée and a powerful noble planned to kill him and seize his inheritance. That night the weakest man in the world vanished. The strongest being in history walked free. Now, under a false identity, he moves through kingdoms and ruins, gathering allies, taming legendary beasts, and unlocking the Abyss Core’s deeper secrets. Old enemies will recognize him. Political wars will ignite. A second invasion will rise. And the true origin of the Abyss—an ancient civilization’s forgotten crime—will force him to confront not only those who betrayed him, but the lie upon which the entire world was built. Revenge. Power. Slow-burn love. Kingdoms at war. And the burden of a forgotten hero who must decide whether to save the world again… or rule the darkness it created. The Abyss Sovereign has returned.

Brother’s Due follows Kian Wu, a loyal disciple living in the shadow of his brilliant older brother, Tao, within the Ironveil Order-an ancient institution built on the myth of sealing a demonic threat. Unambitious and devoted, Kian asks only to support his brother. But when Elder Shou discovers the Order’s dark origins, Tao murders their master to protect the Order’s noble lie and frames Kian with cold, grieving perfection. Cast into the subterranean Hollow Vaults to have his core suppressed, Kian encounters the entity locked at the bottom of the world. It is no demon, but the original god the Order betrayed and entombed centuries ago. Realizing Tao framed him simply because Kian was loyal enough not to fight back, Kian forms a pact with the forgotten deity, learning to cultivate through primordial "resonance channels" that bypass all modern seals. Escaping the depths, Kian emerges to witness Tao’s coronation as Grandmaster. Hidden in the shadows, he hears Tao deliver a heartbroken, deeply sincere speech declaring his brother "dead to him." Kian comes to a terrifying realization: Tao is not acting. He has rewritten his own mind to genuinely believe his betrayals were righteous sacrifices for the greater good. Rather than seeking blind vengeance, Kian begins a calculated campaign to dismantle the Order’s foundational lies. Guided by the ancient god, he masters forgotten resonance techniques and gathers allies among the world’s forgotten outcasts. Meanwhile, Tao expands his empire under the banner of absolute purity. Their conflict escalates from a quiet family tragedy into a war for the continent's soul, as Kian fights not merely to defeat a villain, but to shatter the golden delusion of the brother he once loved.

Nathan Cross is a respected forensic accountant assigned to audit the country's most celebrated charity, the Soren Foundation. He uncovers a horrifying truth: the foundation is a front for laundering money tied to assassinations, political manipulation, and worse. Before he can report it, he's framed — his office raided, evidence planted, his name dragged through the media. His father collapses under the stress and later dies. His sister Chloe vanishes the same night he's arrested. In prison, Nathan realizes this was never about the money — someone needed his spotless reputation to make the lie believable, and now they need him gone. With help from a mysterious ally with their own agenda, he escapes during a staged ambush on a prison transfer. The world believes he's dead. Nathan watches his own funeral from a distance. Two years later, he returns to Blackridge under a new identity, quietly hunting the people who destroyed his life. He discovers they're all connected through a hidden network called The Ledger — and at its center is Victor Soren, the philanthropist everyone trusts. As Nathan dismantles Victor's empire piece by piece, journalist Elena Brooks — who built her career chasing "the truth" about Nathan's guilt — realizes the mysterious stranger she's investigating is Nathan himself. Together, reluctantly, they dig deeper: corrupt judges, bought police, a mentor whose loyalty is unclear, and finally, proof that Chloe is alive. As Nathan closes in on the truth behind why he was chosen to be framed, he must decide what kind of man his revenge will make him — and whether exposing The Ledger is worth the innocent lives it could also destroy.
