Reverse Harem

Abel was beaten nearly to death by school bullies for daring to ask out the school belle. On the brink of death, he was saved by a mysterious entity, the Super Versatile System. It merged with him, granting him powerful skills and abilities. At first Abel thought he was special and is the only one with special abilities. That illusion shattered when he was exposed to the supernatural world. Even worse, his father was taken by powerful, unknown beings, and his fate remains a mystery. Dead or alive, no one knows. Determined to grow stronger and rescue his father, Abel swore to make the most of his new abilities. To upgrade his system faster, he had no choice but to join the entertainment industry as a boss figure. But when night falls, he becomes something else entirely, an executioner, hunting and killing the demonic beings that have escaped from another realm.

Power wears many faces. Magic is just one of them. When a sickly noble heir stumbles upon a strange gift — the ability to see through the veil of power. He sets out to rebuild his crumbling house, not with sword or spell… but with silver, strategy, and secrets. But in a Kingdom where strength is currency and weakness gets buried, Cael Varissen must learn fast: wealth is fragile, war is inevitable, and magic? It’s far older and hungrier than anyone cares to admit. What if the most dangerous magic wasn’t in spells, but in shrewd business deals... and dangerous alliances of the heart? In a world where political ambition, economic strategy, and forbidden desires hold as much sway as any ancient power, every alliance comes with a price. This is the heart of House of Ash and Gold. ...
