Survival Game

In Backgated City, the undocumented don’t exist, until they become useful. Thrown into the streets as a child with no birth record, no family, and no protection, Kairo Vale survives by listening more than he speaks and learning faster than the city expects. Crime syndicates, corrupt officials, and underground networks all circle him, each seeing something different: a pawn, a weapon, a mistake.

When a cosmic violet flash mutates humanity into flesh-eating monsters, systems analyst Lain Connell awakens a powerful cosmic interface inside his mind. The Transcendent Zombie Master System gives him the unique ability to subjugate, control, and genetically engineer the infected into loyal, evolving combat thralls. As the world crumbles, Lain must cast aside his old morality and treat the bloody apocalypse like a high-stakes strategy game. Alongside a brave security guard and a sharp medical student, he builds an unstoppable undead army to fight ruthless human warlords and rogue corporate syndicates. But Lain soon discovers that the zombies are not the true threat. Massive extraterrestrial bio-weapons are descending from the stars to harvest the planet. To save his team and conquer the new world, Lain must force his monsters to evolve past human limitations and face the cosmic horrors head-on.

Ryoshu wakes up with a gasp, finding himself in a downpour unlike any he's ever seen. This isn't his usual bedroom; it's Rainfall Disorder, a hardcore game notorious for its brutal difficulty. Gone are the familiar pixels of his screen – Ryoshu's in the game, and vicious monsters prowl the shadows.

This isn't just a game anymore – it's a fight for his sanity and life.

He did not care if the prayer stole precious seconds from the timer. Between speaking to God and the damnation the system promised at zero, there was no question which came first. “Dear Lord,” he murmured, “Ye who see all hearts and weigh all sins… hear me now as I stand at the threshold of damnation. What I am about to do is cruel and unforgiving. A stain no river may wash from my hands. Yet, if this evil must be borne so that greater horrors may perish, let that burden fall upon me. “I know the gates of Hell stand open before my feet, and should this act be the step that leads me through them… so be it. Let history curse my name—if by my damnation, others are spared. “But Lord…” he continued quietly, “when the trumpets sound in the final days, when the dead rise and judgment cometh upon all souls, I ask only this of You: do not forget that I once wept for what I became. Do not forget that I hated the necessity of my hands. Don't forget that though I walked willingly into darkness, I did so that others may remain in the light. And if mercy exists even for the damned… then let me be counted among those shown pity. “For the sins I commit in Your name, for the evil I embrace in pursuit of a righteous end, and for the soul I surrender this night… I beg Your forgiveness.” He lifted his gaze and fixed Vir Ossium a death stare. “... Amen.” —————————————— Kael was just an ordinary guy—until the night he died. But instead of staying dead, he is thrown into a brutal death game. The rule is simple: Be the last Kamen Rider standing... by any means necessary.

Saddam was just a struggling courier in snowy Munich until the fabric of reality tore open. Trapped between shadow wolves and certain death, a mysterious System awakens within him—but it is not the warrior path he expected. To survive the extra-dimensional Rifts, he must synchronize with the city coldest protector: Captain Felisa von Schwarzwald. The catch? Synchronization requires physical touch and emotional resonance. Now, a lowly courier must navigate deadly monsters and the even deadlier gaze of an Ice Queen who could freeze his heart—or melt it. In a world of chaos, their shared heartbeat is the only weapon that matters.

But with every battle, the line between friend and enemy blurs, and one question haunts him— Is he destined to save this world… or destroy it?
