Shattered Dream Sans

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 story begins with Mark’s brutal struggle against nightmare entities like The Shredder and The Janitor. He finds himself forced to rescue two coworkers, Sarah and David—not out of empathy, but because the System threatens to process the entire team into "Hell-Fuel" for a thousand years should even one member forfeit. The tension reaches a breaking point with the arrival of The Auditor, a mysterious entity conducting "life audits," who coerces Mark into signing a "Permanent Overtime" contract. Mark soon realizes that this system is no mere game; it is a galactic harvesting operation designed to farm human suffering. As the narrative unfolds, Mark descends an infinite spiral staircase, facing elite monsters that manifest as the physical incarnations of corporate sins. He begins to manipulate legal loopholes within the System to empower his team, forging Sarah into a lethal logistics expert and David into a bloody legal guardian. Mark continues to endure harrowing physical tolls—repeatedly broken bones and failing organs become his daily routine as he trades his vitality for overpriced, instant-healing points. The climax occurs when Mark reaches the "Galactic Headquarters" to confront the System’s CEO. There, he uncovers the bitter truth: Earth is merely one of thousands of subsidiaries currently being "liquidated." In a final act fueled by dark comedy and visceral action, Mark does not choose to be the hero who destroys the machine. Instead, he orchestrates a hostile takeover. Sacrificing his humanity to become the new Administrator, he liberates mankind from their life-debts—only to find himself eternally bound as the "Servant of Hell," maintaining the balance of a shattered new world. Mark wins, but his shift never ends.

Transferred to a technologically-advanced Earth as an infant from a planetary-powerhouse named Al-Vrygon, Geltorak—now Hunter Stone—blossomed into a highly-skilled fighter, a fearsome technologically-enhanced operative, and a globally-celebrated genius inventor. But at the age of 20, before Hunter Stone could really dream of achieving the status of god-like inventor, Earth suddenly plunged into a crisis of total destruction. A mysterious figure, predating Hunter's arrival, had abruptly risen to power and united the world as its inaugural hegemonic ruler. Unwilling to witness global annihilation, Hunter, who had undergone many training, began to forge alliances with tech-powered soldiers, mechanically-augmented battle veterans, and super-powered alien beings that resided on Earth. Together, they endured relentless violent conflicts and devastating battles against allied enemy forces, as they strived to avert the foreseen apocalypse—a looming decimation of Earth and the extermination of all living beings. Emerging as the revered leader of a particular faction in a desolate, war-torn Earth, Hunter embarked on a space odyssey to seek certain answers. But he became inadvertently ensnared in a scheme that led to the unceasing subjugation and eventual annihilation of numerous planets by a malevolent cosmic force. Determined to halt the unending planetary destructions, Hunter traversed dimensions to lost otherworldly civilizations, where he gathered materials to construct god-like technological wonders, and colossal supermachines known as Divinity-Machines—behemoth cosmomechanical marvels capable of rivalling the grand cosmic powers of hypothetical outer-space omniversal gods. Accompanied by his planet-shaking monolithic inventions, and adorned with the myriad god-subduing items that he built, he gradually formed alliances with friends, numerous other beings, and potent huge armies from distant planets, all sharing the hope of thwarting the tyrannical nefarious power from advancing in its wicked conquest! Yet, the looming question persisted: Would Hunter Stone really succeed, or would he become a mere remnant in the annals of cosmic history?

A thousand years ago, the Strongest Demon Emperor, Xar'thos, nearly plunged the cultivation world into eternal darkness, only to be defeated and sealed by an alliance of holy sects in a heroic sacrifice. Now, after a millennium has passed, the Demon Emperor is reborn as a poor youth named Aron in a remote village—without power, without memories, and without any remnants of his past glory. The world has forgotten him, and the holy sects have enjoyed a fragile peace, establishing their dominance without threat. However, fate has other plans. As Xar'thos's memories begin to return, an ancient entity known as the "Demon Empire System" activates within him. This system is more than just a guide; it is the key to rebuilding his shattered empire, granting him unique abilities to revive forbidden cultivation techniques, recruit loyal followers, and most crucially, attract powerful women with demonic potential to become his Demon Consorts—the pillars of his new strength and authority. Starting from zero, Aron—who is now slowly reverting to Xar'thos—begins a perilous journey to reclaim what is rightfully his. Xar'thos's journey takes him from a helpless youth to a rising ruler of darkness, rebuilding his army from the shadows.

The holy sects that once sealed him begin to sense the echoes of a long-lost demonic aura. They send agents to investigate, sparking initial clashes that reveal weaknesses and ancient secrets among his old enemies.
