“Three Systems. Three Paths. One Mystery.” In a world that seems ordinary, three individuals unlock extraordinary powers through enigmatic Systems that promise them strength, skills, and influence. • Isa, brash and ambitious, sees the System as a stepping stone to ultimate power. His goals are larger than life: he wants to rise above everyone, from the schoolyard to the world stage. • Azlan, disciplined and focused, uses his System to honor his father’s legacy as a boxing champion, striving to prove himself in the ring and beyond. • The third System user? A shadow in the distance. No one knows who they are or what they want, but their presence looms over Isa and Azlan, tying their fates together in ways they can’t yet understand. As they grow from rivals to adults in a world increasingly shaped by their actions, Isa and Azlan’s clashing ambitions will drive them to ally, betray, and fight. Along the way, the Systems’ true purpose, and why they were chosen, will begin to unravel—threatening to shake the foundation of everything they know. This isn’t just a story of strength and ambition. It’s about the cost of power, the allure of destiny, and the battle to define what it means to lead. Key Features: • A mix of Solo Leveling-style progression, intense rivalries, and long-term world-building. • Characters who grow and change over years, evolving into leaders, heroes, or villains. • A deep mystery: Why were they chosen? And who controls the Systems? • Themes of ambition, loyalty, and the sacrifices demanded by power.

Alex Chen mops TechNova’s office’s polished floors in the busy heart of New York City. He is just another nameless janitor to the busy workers who are hurrying by, someone to be laughed at or ignored. They are unaware that a man of extraordinary power and influence lies beneath this simple guise. Alex was raised to be a leader because he was the heir to the old Phoenix Clan. In any case, a severe fight for control constrained him in banishment, abandoning all that he knew, including Elena, the lady he cherished. In the mountains of Tibet, Alex studied under a reclusive healer for years, becoming an expert in both martial arts and medicine. In the shadows, he fabricated the Shadow Circle, a secret network so huge and compelling that even New York's most remarkable figures murmur its name in wonder. Alex has since returned to take back what is his. Elena is involved in a relationship with Nicholas Vega, the ruthless heir of the Scorpion Syndicate, as the rival Syndicate's hold on Chinatown has grown. Covering his real character, Alex carries on with an apparently typical life as a janitor while plotting his vengeance.

Mu Qiu jolted awake, the stench of decay filling his nostrils. He wasn't in his old apartment; he was sprawled on cracked asphalt, surrounded by the moans of the undead. He was reborn in the apocalypse. Worse, his body, dormant for two years, had mutated. He was a Corpse King, an apex predator with the power to devour and assimilate. Then, a voice echoed in his mind, clear and precise. [Congratulations, Host! You have successfully bound the Supreme World Sign-In System!] [You have arrived at your first sign-in location: Ravaged City Center. Reward: Holy Lord's Demonic Energy.] Mu Qiu stared at his clawed hands, the flesh pale and cold. A system? In this hellhole? [Next sign-in location: Mutated Zombie Hive. Estimated time: 12 hours.] [Daily Quest: Devour 100 Lesser Undead. Reward: Evolution Points.] [Status: Corpse King - Level 1. Evolution Points: 0. Demonic Energy: Acquired.] [Inventory: Empty.] He could see the information floating in his vision, like a translucent screen. The world was a nightmare, and survival as a human was impossible. But as a Corpse King with a system? That was a different story. [Would you like to absorb the Holy Lord's Demonic Energy?] Mu Qiu's jaw clenched. Yes. [Absorption commencing...]

I was a disgrace to the Prestwick family—a poor, unwanted son-in-law they wished their daughter had never married. She had chosen me for my looks, but now, even that wasn’t enough. She wanted out. A divorce. To erase me from her life and marry into wealth like her family had always intended. But I loved her. Despite the insults, the humiliation, the way they treated me like dirt beneath their feet—I refused to let go. That was my biggest mistake. Frustrated by my defiance, my brother-in-law took matters into his own hands. He killed me, tossing my body into a cold, dark river, leaving me to sink into oblivion. I should have died. I did die. But before I took my final breath, a man appeared before me, cloaked in shadow, his voice like a whisper from the abyss. "What is your last wish?" I should have begged for revenge. I should have cursed their names. But all I wanted was one more chance. One more chance to live. And so, I was granted life again. But I was no longer the same. My soul was no longer my own. My body was no longer mine to control. Because I had been reborn as something far more powerful. I was no longer John Prestwick. I was the Devil himself.

Terry died when he was stabbed by Bobby shit. Instead of being sent to heaven, hell, limbo, or purgatory, Terry was sent back to earth by Saint Peter. His mission was to help hurl back the earthbound demons from Earth to their home in Ghoul.********* While Lucifer ruled over hell and demons, Samael had authority over the earthbound demons and their home in Ghoul. And it was his duty to keep them away from earth. But then, one or two among that spirit always escaped and they were caught before any damage was done. Saint Peter released the breath he had been holding. No doubt, Lucifer must be at the root of this. What is he up to? That lord of hell is as unpredictable as a loose cannon. "How can I be of help?" "I need some angels to help in bringing them back ." Saint Peter laughed sardonically, "You know that's impossible, right?" Sameal's grunted louder from the other side of the call. "Hmm... You will think of something, won't you?" "Sì." "Thank you." Saint Peter hisses and then presses the terminate button. "Saint Peter," Terry called out. The saint removed a pair of spectacles, wiped the glasses with an impeccable white handkerchief, and then placed the spectacles back at the edge of his nose. "I need your help, mortal."

Introvert!? Me!? Tha hell am I an introvert. I stay indoors all day because I am afraid to get my butt kicked. Until I contract my beast, I won't be walking freely. This is a promise I made it myself. My name is Ryder and I am a black marked. In the planet where I live, it is dominated by summoners. If you guessed, then you are right, we contracted beast from the Astral Shadow plain and summon it out at will after successfully contracting the creature. Mark appears on the left shoulder of every human after birth, a mark given by the beast that chooses you. There are five different colours of mark— the brown, the orange, the red, the black and lastly, the white. Of all the marking, I was marked black. I was marked by a supreme demon monarch of the Astra shadow plain— the Dracogon. There was a 0.5 over 100 percent chance for me to survive in the contraction process but I did. I did and in the process, caused a catastrophe— i opened a link between the beasts of Astra shadow plain and the planet of humans, Terra. Everyone is in my planet is in danger because of me. Now with no other choice, I have to find a way to resolve the mistake I made, alone just like I caused it alone. ****
