Strange

Desmond was a nobody, mocked, bullied, and forgotten, with no family and no future. But when he stumbles across a strange glowing creature trapped in a bottle, his fate takes a shocking turn. Bonded to a mysterious system that grants him incredible powers, Desmond finds himself caught between survival and destiny. In a city where men are forced into marriage or conscripted to die at the frontline, Desmond makes an impossible choice: to marry not one, but three women, each hiding secrets, ambitions, and grudges that could either elevate him… or destroy him.

Every challenge he completes pulls him deeper into a dangerous game of power, revenge, and hidden truths. And as war looms, conspiracies unravel, and enemies close in, Desmond must decide: remain the forgotten nobody he once was, or rise as a legend feared by kings.

Now, armed with wealth, strength, and vengeance, Nathan vows to destroy everyone who played a part in his family's downfall.

The enhancement serum was meant to create superhumans—faster, smarter, stronger. Instead, it wiped out most of civilization and turned the rest into Hollowed: vicious, mutated monsters. Elias Mercer should’ve been dead. Instead, he became something new—immune, stronger than a Hollowed, and guided by a mysterious (possibly digital) voice in his head. He’s the first successful mutation—and now, everyone wants him. Hunted by Viratech, the shady corporation that created the virus, Black Sun, a ruthless cult with dark motives, and other mutated survivors who’ve lost their humanity, Elias is stuck in a crumbling world ruled by chaos. His body keeps changing, the System in his head grants strange abilities with dangerous side effects, and his forgotten past might hold the key to everything. To survive, Elias must uncover the truth behind the virus, his own identity, and whether saving the world means losing what’s left of himself. Monsters. Mutations. Mystery. And a war on the horizon.
