To the world, Salim Bakar was the "worthless" son of the elite Bakar real estate dynasty. While his brothers closed multi-million dollar deals, Salim spent his time on his phone, managing obscure influencers in the "frivolous" world of TikTok. The tension boils over at the Bakar Group’s 50th Anniversary Gala. In front of the city’s elite, Salim is publicly betrayed by his own father. "A Bakar is a lion of industry, not a lapdog for internet clowns," his father bellows. Disowned, stripped of his inheritance, and cast out into the rain, Salim is left with nothing but his smartphone. But the Bakars made a fatal mistake: they confused "quiet" with "weak." They didn't know Salim’s hidden identity. He is the "Ghost Manager," a digital genius who controls the world’s largest viral talent agency. With his Cold Protagonist mindset, Salim decides it’s time for a lesson in business. Using his God-Tier Manager System, he begins to manipulate the trends that the Bakar Group relies on for their "modern" rebranding. As Salim builds a new-media empire that dwarfs his family’s dying industry, the Bakars find themselves losing millions. Desperate, they seek a meeting with the mysterious "King of Influence" to save their company. The face-slapping begins when the boardroom doors open, and the "disgrace" they spat on is the one holding their debt. Salim isn't back for a reunion; he’s back for revenge.

“Sign the papers, Yemin. You’re nothing but a lapdog living in my house,” Katherine sneered, flipping her perfect hair. “You should be thanking me for keeping you around this long. Even my maid is more useful than you.” Her new lover, James Franx, smirked. “Man, I almost feel bad for you. Almost. Must suck knowing your only talent is folding laundry and giving foot massages.” The whole room burst into laughter. Yemin just stood there, silent. They called him a loser. A househusband. A pathetic joke. But what they didn’t know? The man they mocked owned the very restaurant they were dining in. The billion-dollar contracts they bragged about? His name was on every single one. And when the truth dropped, their smiles vanished. "Throw them out," the CEO of Ravol Company ordered, his voice cold. Katherine's jaw dropped. "W-What? No, this has to be a mistake!" James turned pale. "Wait! You don't understand! He’s just a nobody!" Yemin chuckled, finally looking them in the eyes. "You’re right, James. I was a nobody. But tell me… what does that make the fool who was just begging at my feet?"

Ten years ago, Kael Draven was the pride of his family and the brightest genius in Emberfall Town. At just eight years old, he had already climbed to heights other cultivators only dreamed of. Everyone said he was destined for greatness. But one failed breakthrough shattered his future. His cultivation collapsed, his talent vanished, and the boy once hailed as a prodigy became the family’s greatest disgrace. Branded a waste, mocked and beaten by his own kin, Kael endured a decade of humiliation with nothing to show for it. Everything changes the night he discovers a strange black seal hidden in the Elderstone Hall. When his blood awakens the Dragon Seal, a shadow of a dragon roars to life, and the truth is revealed—Kael carries the Desolate Sacred Body, a physique both feared and revered. Cursed to demand endless energy yet blessed with limitless potential, it is both his greatest weakness and his greatest weapon. With the Nine Cycles of Samsara carved into his soul and the Dragon Seal at his side, Kael’s path begins anew. The family that scorned him will learn fear. The rivals who mocked him will kneel. And the world will remember the name they once spat on. He is no longer trash. He is the War Dragon.

Ethan is an ordinary college student, majoring in history and leading a quiet, unremarkable life. One day, while walking home from class, he is suddenly engulfed by a mysterious portal and transported to Aetheria, a sprawling fantasy world of magic, monsters, and legendary heroes. Upon arrival, he discovers he has been summoned as a “hero” to aid the realm against an encroaching darkness. However, his magical aptitude is abysmally low, and he fails every basic test and training exercise. The other heroes and villagers quickly label him “the weakest hero”, mocking him as a liability. Desperate and confused, Ethan’s life seems doomed… until a hidden system activates. A mysterious interface appears before him, explaining: > “Your power grows through failure. Each mistake, setback, and defeat will grant you new skills or enhance your existing ones. Your strength is derived not from talent, but from resilience and perseverance.” With this strange rule in place, Ethan begins to experiment. At first, his failures are laughably pathetic: falling off training cliffs, accidentally triggering explosions, or summoning useless monsters. Yet, each failure brings surprising growth: a missed spell suddenly evolves into a devastating magical combo, a botched sword swing awakens latent elemental energy, or a misstep in stealth unlocks precognition. As he slowly accumulates a patchwork of bizarre yet powerful abilities, Ethan’s reputation shifts from the weakest hero to a legendary wildcard, a hero who seems to defy logic and overwhelm enemies in the most unexpected ways.

In the city of New Avalon, where a fascia of riches hides dishonesty and backstabbing, a rebellious group of thieves sets their sights on the impenetrable vault of wealthy Victor Crane. It's said to hold a vast treasure of valuable gems. The team is headed by Jax "The Ghost" Malone, a likeable former criminal with a talent for pulling off unbelievable robberies. His crew consists of: Lena Voss, a technological whiz; Marcus "Bear" Tate, a powerful strongman; and Evie Quinn, a deceptive swindler. They come up with a bold scheme: to put a tiny camera on Crane's jacket to discover the vault's secrets, copy his fingerprint, and imitate the voice of his business partner, Sophia Laurent. As they get closer to Crane, visiting places like his expensive dry cleaners and personal gym, the team learns that the vault has a two-part security system. It needs Crane's fingerprint and Sophia's voice at the same time. But things aren't as straightforward as they seem. Lena's developing feelings for Jax begin to distract her, while Evie's impulsive flirting and Marcus's troubled history cause problems within the group. Then there's Dorian Black, a competing thief whose frustrating success and arrogant attitude make him a despised but dangerous enemy. As the robbery progresses, acts of disloyalty, passionate moments, and thrilling pursuits push the team to their limits. With time running out and Crane's security getting tighter, the crew must navigate relationships, devotion, and deceit to complete the heist—or risk losing everything in the resulting turmoil.

Born into a noble family and endowed with tremendous power, exceptional talent, and unparalleled physical attractiveness, one might assume these qualities to be blessings. However, are they truly advantageous or rather a curse? Allen Frey, a young man destined to inherit the illustrious lineage of Duke Frey in the Kingdom of Eldoria, finds himself entangled in this very predicament. Given his extraordinary social standing and the multitude of advantages at his disposal, it seems inevitable that Allen will lead a prosperous life and ascend to greatness in due course. What if this perceived fortune is merely an intricate facade, perpetually deceiving him at every twist and turn? What if it's all an elaborate lie? A hero summoned from another world with the mission to vanquish the Demon Emperor ultimately becomes the perpetrator, stripping Allen of everything he holds dear—his fiancée, sister, power, strength, and all that he possessed. Does this constitute fate? Even the figure known as the "Hero" ultimately eradicated his very existence. Can this be considered justice? In the final moments of his life, he gazed upward at the serene sky, mustering every ounce of strength to reach out his trembling hand. "Oh, God! Are you truly so merciless as to shatter my life?" "Can... Can you grant me an opportunity to alter this cruel destiny?!" He cried out, his voice strained, tears streaming down his face, and gradually he closed his weary eyes. [Ding! Fate Fighting System Successfully Bound!]

Leo was typical, overlooked and completely unprepared when a forbidden tome chose him and gave him the mark of a Warden and placed him under the Mage Academy. This school is an intermediary between worlds, a training ground where recipients of a gift of a System Interface, called a Codex, are trained. However, the file of Leo himself is empty, his Codex whispers that they are “unfinished,” and the elite at the Academy are watching him with suspicion and fear. Dropped into a realm of magical rank and fatal challenges, Leo is an exception. His magic is not dead, but a forbidden energy, which develops by consuming the magic and memories of others. In a maimed mentor who has an overabundance of knowledge, a genius competitor with a cursed lineage, and an ally with a talent to outwit the street, Leo discovers a rot inside the Academy.

He is a “Fractured Soul,” a descendant in an intergenerational cycle, who will either redeem the world or ruin it. In order to escape the cycle, he should learn how to overcome the same force that is eliminating his human nature and face the most outrageous truth of all: the man who has tortured him is his own father.
