Once a ghost, always a ghost. Ethan Vale, a quiet locksmith in East London, hides from a past that officially doesn’t exist. Years ago, he was an MI5 infiltration specialist — until a mission in Prague went wrong, his entire team was killed, and his name was erased. He’s lived in silence since. Until one rain-soaked night, a woman named Clara Daines bursts into his shop with a bleeding shoulder and a biometric case she claims holds evidence of a government conspiracy. Hours later, armed men arrive. Ethan’s calm life is shattered in seconds. When he opens the case, he finds something impossible — an active MI5 kill order with his name on it, dated that same day. Hunted by his own agency, Ethan partners with Detective Isla Hart, a sharp but idealistic investigator chasing a string of assassinations linked to a defunct MI5 unit known as Division 9 — the same unit Ethan once led. As Ethan unravels the mystery, he discovers Division 9 never truly ended — it evolved into The Consortium, a covert alliance manipulating London’s surveillance systems to engineer obedience. Every crime, every target, every “accident” is part of a digital control plan called Project Echelon II. The closer Ethan gets to the truth, the more he realizes: Division 9 didn’t just erase him. It rebuilt him — piece by piece. And now, the ghosts he buried are coming back… wearing his face. The final revelation will force Ethan to confront the deepest question of all: Is he still human — or just another trace in someone else’s code?

The fight between good and evil has always been represented by the two sides of the world: light and darkness. Yes, they say light prevails, but what of its flaws? Are its wielders truly saints? Merlin, an orphan, crawled his way to Holy Light Academy on scholarship, enduring ridicule and scorn for two years, mocked for his weak Light affinity and labeled talentless. Beaten, humiliated, and shunned, he faced every trial without hope. But everything changed when he was gifted with the Mystic Arts System. [Congratulations! You have qualified for the Mystic Arts System. Recognized by two gods.] [Ding! Double Elemental Ability Unlocked.] Awakening a forbidden Dark talent hidden from all, Merlin now wields both Light and Dark, challenging the world’s perception of good and evil, and setting out to prove: elements do not define morality....humanity does.

In his past life, Maximus Cobain was the world’s foremost actuarial statistician and a pathological completionist gamer. He didn’t read people; he read numbers, probabilities, and patterns. When a fatal accident transmigrates his consciousness into the brutally battered body of a debt-slave in the martial-ruled Sun-Forged Empire, Maximus wakes up in a world where physical strength is the only law. There is no magic here. No gods. No mystical energy. Only Somatic Mastery—the grueling, scientific peak of human biomechanics, breath control, and lethal martial arts. With his brain struggling to process the trauma of transmigration, Maximus’s mind fractures and rebuilds reality into the only framework he understands: a video game. He possesses no magical AI and no supernatural cheat. Instead, his savant-like intellect constructs a mental "Heads-Up Display"—gamifying his reality, calculating the physics of a punch, charting the biochemistry of herbs, and breaking down elite martial arts into grindable "Skill Trees." He will survive the fighting pits. He will climb the ranks of the martial nobility. He will exploit the physics of this brutal world to the absolute limit. Maximus Cobain is going to reach the apex of human evolution, and he is going to do it exactly as he pleases.

They took everything from him, then they framed him in debt and told him to figure it out. Hiroshi Tanaka has three days to come up with three million credits or his mother dies. The Kuroda family did all of it. They set him up, drained his accounts, and got his own girlfriend to stand up in court and lie about him. Now they're sitting on the one thing he can't walk away from, the machine keeping his mother alive. Then something appears in his vision that shouldn't be there. [Gratitude System Activated] [Rule: Protect. Receive. Grow.] He doesn't understand it. He doesn't trust it either. But when a debt collector shows up and starts pushing his childhood friend around, something in Hiroshi breaks open and the System drops money into his account that has no explanation and his body and strength change in ways he couldn't understand. The Kuroda still think he's a broke student with nowhere to go. They didn't know a gratitude system had been activated for him which made him richer and stronger. He will soon make them regret using him.

Arcana High is known as the greatest magic academy in the Bluestar World. It is prestigious, disciplined, and supposedly safe. But when a group of ordinary teens accidentally breaks into the academy’s restricted library, they uncover something no student was ever meant to see: A living, ancient map that chooses them as its “Special Players.” From that moment on, their lives changed into a strange, game-like reality where hidden, forbidden regions appeared all around the Bluestar World. Monsters, Mutated Beasts, Zombies, and unknown monstrosities roam the world. Every basic spell evolves like a skill tree. And the map keeps issuing quests with one warning: “Level up… or die.” Forced to team up despite their clashing personalities, the teens must explore the world's hidden regions, unlock ancient magic, and complete trials that push them far beyond their limits. But the deeper they go, the more they realize: The map is just a trial ground for divine beings called the Naphil. Entities powerful enough to rewrite the structure of the Bluestar World. And now, they want to filter out the strong players from the weak. If humans can't level up fast enough, Arcana High won’t be the only thing that falls…The entire realm will.

He woke in a stranger’s bed with a system in his skull, a son-in-law title on his tongue, and a missing shard that can rewrite who you are. Arin Voss opens his eyes inside Voss Manor with no memory of how he died, and a cold voice in his head called the Protocol that gives him missions and penalties. To survive he must play the role he’s been handed, marry into power, and chase Tessera, a stolen memory shard that can erase or sell a person’s past. As he hunts, he slips between two dangerous alliances. Evelyn, the ice-smart heiress, offers politics and protection. Maris, a smoky broker from the docks, offers heat and truth. Both pull him toward very different futures. When brokers start dying and the Protocol’s orders threaten to cut away pieces of his life, Arin faces a choice. Obey the machine and trade his identity for safety, or tear the system down and risk being erased for good. Legacy, lust, and lies converge in a high-stakes game where memory is currency, and love might be the only leverage left.
