Squid Game Deok Su

When Earth is marked for deletion during an unscheduled System Update, Jace should have died with everyone else. Instead, the system fails to classify him. Branded an Error-Born anomaly and assigned the impossible designation of Level 999, Jace becomes the one existence the universe’s ruling protocols were never built to contain. But a forbidden level means nothing when his access is locked, his authority is restricted, and every celestial enforcer in the system wants him erased before he can fully awaken. As cities fall, sectors open, and reality reveals its artificial design, Jace must unlock the broken permissions buried inside his Glitch Protocol. Every battle increases his access. Every breach brings him closer to the truth. And every enemy he destroys proves the same terrifying fact: the system did not choose him. It failed to stop him.

Axel is a trained demon hunter who came to Jakarta with one single mission: to wipe out every creature that strays beyond the bounds of humanity. Rules drilled into him since childhood have taught him to see the world in nothing but black and white—until he meets Rena, the shadow mage who was supposed to be his target. Their first encounter ends in a deadly fight that Axel fails to finish, and what follows becomes a long chase that leads him to an unexpected truth. Rena is nothing like the threat he was told she is. She is just another survivor fighting to stay alive and protect those around her. As understanding slowly grows between them, the organization that raised Axel learns what he has found. He is branded a traitor, Rena is labeled a dangerous instigator, and both are now hunted by the very people Axel once called comrades. Their only chance to survive is to cross into the shadow realm, a place with no guarantee of ever returning. Now Axel must choose: cling to the rules he has always followed, rules built on lies, or stand beside the only person who never asked him to be just a weapon.

Strange messages reveal secrets about Soren's death, while something mysterious waits inside his spatial ability. And the Harringtons, who once traded his life for supplies, are coming for him again.

Across the vertical concrete jungle of New York City, billions of detached silhouettes are slaughtering their owners, stepping into their skin to become hollow, malevolent Mimics.

In the midst of the Great Bloom Cycle that has begun to destroy the remnants of civilization, Nico rescues Elena Vance, a scientist who holds the secret key to Project Catalyst. Nico is now hunted not only by the Apostles—humans who worship the plague—but also by Sovereign, the collective consciousness of the roses that seeks to take over his body completely.
