Ruler Of Reality

"I must be losing my mind," Min Suhyun muttered, struggling to grasp the unsettling reality that unfolded before her. How had she ended up here? In the realm of clichéd stories, such a trope typically befell the deceased, not someone who had merely skimmed through old drafts. And yet, here she was, trapped in the body of an insignificant extra named Serein Rowe. The realization hit her like a bolt of lightning, raising questions she couldn't easily dismiss. ‘This can't be another one of my lucid dreams... Is this some twisted cosmic joke?’ she pondered, her mind reeling with the absurdity of her situation. Nevertheless, given that she could barely do anything to return to her world, she might as well seize this opportunity to finally finish what she had started, right? Living here and continuing until the end of this draft, she could create a good ending, '—though maybe it won't be as easy…?' Surviving as a side character suffering from a curse-like chronic illness? That would undoubtedly be a struggle. Now, that would undoubtedly pose a challenge, although it’s still a better fate than dying early, serving only as a trigger for the story's advancement. Min Suhyun contemplated for a moment before firmly resolving to a single objective: To survive until the very end.

Long before gods walked among mortals and kingdoms dared dream of power, there was Alister—a being not born, but declared into existence by the will of the world itself. Wielding strength beyond comprehension and a charisma that swayed empires, he vanished at the peak of his reign. Some claimed he ascended. Others swore he was sealed. All agreed: if Alister returned, the world would never be the same. Five centuries later, reality tears open. From a rift beyond space and time, Alister walks once more into a world unrecognizable—skyscrapers scraping the heavens, dragons living in the shadows, and mysterious abominations known as Nullborn haunting the land. With a smile on his lips and golden eyes that see through fate itself, Alister steps into a modern age... and accidentally collides with Jade, a full-blooded dragon hiding her past behind emerald eyes and forced smiles. As chaos erupts and monstrous forces rise, Alister's presence alone shakes the balance of peace. Though he seems calm, even kind, there is something deeply unsettling about him—something not even Jade, with all her ancient blood, can explain. When blood is spilled and oaths are broken, fear spreads like wildfire. Now hunted by those sworn to uphold peace, and watched by forgotten cults that once worshipped him, Alister must rediscover why he was made—and what his return truly means for the world. Because some legends were buried for a reason.

Caleb Davis never imagined his dream of becoming an actor would turn into a daily fight for survival. After years of playing nameless background roles and chasing auditions that went nowhere, he was just another face lost in the crowd. Fame felt like a distant fantasy — until one unforgettable night changed everything. In the middle of chaos, a strange voice echoed in his mind: [The Film and Television Martial Emperor System has been activated.] From that moment, Caleb’s life turned upside down. The system gave him the ability to gain real martial power through the roles he performed. Every time he stepped in front of the camera, he didn’t just act — he lived the part. When he played a warrior, he learned their strength. When he played a monk, he gained their discipline. And when he played a villain, he inherited their ruthless will to survive. As his skills grew, so did his fame. But the deeper he sank into this new world, the harder it became to tell where acting ended and reality began. Enemies from the industry, hidden powers, and mysterious figures started to take notice. Now, with his rising fame and the system’s power pushing him forward, Caleb must walk a path between illusion and truth — where one performance could change not only his career but the fate of the entire world.

In a world ruled by the Ascension System, survival is permission-based. At eighteen, every citizen is evaluated, awakened, and assigned a path. Those who fail are erased—cleanly, legally, without regret. Kael Ashborne fails. Declared unawakened, Kael is sentenced to execution inside a system-controlled dungeon. No skills. No stats. No divine interface to save him. His death is calculated, approved, and inevitable. Except it doesn’t happen. Through instinct, defiance, and choices the system cannot predict, Kael survives becoming a contradiction the Ascension System cannot classify or correct. Instead of granting him power, the system begins to observe him. Study him. Adapt. Hunted by system-enforcers and shadowed by a hidden group known as the Erased—people who exist outside recorded outcomes—Kael learns a terrifying truth: the system does not rule by strength, but by certainty. It closes futures, locks outcomes, and sacrifices possibility to maintain order. Kael can break those futures. Not by overpowering the system but by invalidating its decisions. As the system escalates from observation to rollback, rewriting time and reality to erase him, Kael’s existence begins to destabilize the world itself. Cities fracture. Laws glitch. People suffer under the cost of wasted authority. Forced to choose between survival and responsibility, Kael steps into a role no one was meant to fill: a living anomaly capable of reopening closed destinies. The system calls him a catastrophic variable. The world may call him something else.
