Marked

The crimson moon, marked the descent of chaos. Min-joon, a gamer used to virtual worlds, found himself thrust into a horrifying reality. Monstrous beings, echoes of nightmares, swarmed through dimensional tears, devouring everything in their path. Humanity crumbled, and the world reduced to a wasteland. But in the despair, Min-joon awoke different. A mysterious system awoke within him, promising power beyond measure. Unlike others, shackled by a finite pool of experience, Min-joon possessed the ability to level infinitely. Each kill, each encounter, fueled his growth. He wasn't just a survivor - he was a paradox, a beacon of hope in the encroaching darkness. As he carved a path through the ravaged city, the truth clawed its way to the surface. The apocalypse wasn't a random disaster – it was a twisted game, orchestrated by a malevolent entity known as the Architect. Furious and a desperate yearning to bring things back to how they used to be, Min-joon decided he would get strong enough to kill a being that would have otherwise been considered a god. Why don't you follow him in his journey and find out how he goes about doing it?

SHADOW OPS: BLOOD DEBT By Lilitha Ntlebi Synopsis: Elite black-ops soldier Knox Alverez thought he buried his past in the Middle East—until a massacre on American soil drags him back into a war he didn’t know he was still fighting. When an off-the-books mission unravels a hidden network of sleeper agents, biochemical warfare, and shadow governments, Knox finds himself marked not just as a target—but as a weapon. Haunted by flashes of memory and a neural implant he didn’t know existed, Knox must team up with intel analyst Jessa Vale to expose a conspiracy buried deep within SIGMA, the very agency that trained him. As they race across continents to stop a new phase of covert warfare, each step uncovers a deeper betrayal—and a chilling truth: the enemy isn’t coming. He’s already inside. From decimated war zones to high-tech bunkers beneath the sea, SHADOW OPS: BLOOD DEBT is a razor-edged modern action thriller packed with pulse-pounding combat, gritty realism, and a hero forced to confront the most dangerous battlefield of all: his own mind. Trust is dead. Memory is weaponized. And blood is never clean.

They went to war as soldiers. They came back as brothers. But when the system they fought for betrays them, loyalty becomes their last weapon. Echo Unit was built from broken men — a reluctant captain, a rebellious sergeant, a quiet strategist, a wisecracking soul, and a young recruit with everything to prove. Together, they form one of the most lethal special operations teams in modern warfare. Deployed into a war that no longer makes sense, Echo Unit faces the brutality of combat and the corruption festering inside their own command. When a mission turns into a massacre and the truth is buried, they are marked as traitors and forced to survive behind enemy lines — abandoned, disavowed, and hunted. But in the smoke and blood of a collapsing system, brotherhood becomes their only compass. Each man must face his own demons — guilt, fear, betrayal — while holding the line for the only thing that still feels pure: each other. Years later, when the truth threatens to resurface, the surviving brothers reunite for one last mission — not for orders, not for glory, but for honor. From the trenches of betrayal to the ashes of redemption, Iron Bonds is a powerful tale of courage, sacrifice, and the unbreakable strength of men who refused to die forgotten. It’s not just a war story. It’s a story about what survives after the war.

Introvert!? Me!? The hell am I an introvert? I stay indoors all day because I am afraid of getting my butt kicked. Until I contract my beast, I won’t be walking freely. This is a promise I made to myself. My name is Ryder, and I am black-marked. The planet where I live is dominated by summoners. If you guessed it, then you are right—we contract beasts from the Astral Shadow Plain and summon them at will after successfully forming a contract. A mark appears on the left shoulder of every human after a period of maturity, a mark given by the beast that chooses you. There are five different types of marks—the brown, the orange, the red, the black, and lastly, the white. Of all the markings, I was marked black. I was chosen by a supreme demon monarch of the Astral Shadow Plain—the Dracogon. There was only a 0.5 percent chance for me to survive the contraction process. However, with a slight twist in the original outcome, contracting a creature from the black-marked plain was nothing compared to the catastrophe I caused shortly after—I opened a link between the beasts of the Astral Shadow Plain and the planet of humans, Terra. Everyone on my planet has been endangered because of me. The fact that no one knows when the link will trigger and cause a breach that pours mindless creatures into my world makes it all the more unsettling. Now, with no other choice, I have to find a way to resolve the mistake I made—alone, just like I caused it.
