Tower Ascension

Leo Carter, a once-overlooked university errand boy whose life changes after awakening the Supremacy System. A mysterious system that gives him missions, rewards, money, business knowledge, and strategic advantages. At the beginning, Leo was humiliated constantly at Eastgate University, especially by Marcus Whitmore and the elite students connected to wealthy families. He worked like a servant on campus, wore embarrassing clothes, and was treated as invisible. Everything changed when the System activated. Now he wants Global ascension so nobody in this world will ever look down on him.

Driven into the lethal Mythic Tower, Austin was mocked as a lazy, mana-deficient trash. But while others fought for survival, he awakened the Cosmic AFK System. Now, he slays gods by taking naps. When enemies push him to the brink, Austin just yawns and unleashes divine punishment. "Don't disturb my naptime."

Nathaniel "Nate" Cole once designed skylines. Now he guards one at night, a security badge instead of a license, after his partner Preston Vale framed him for a bribe he never took and stole both his practice and his name. Working nights in the Meridian, the Atlanta tower Vale built from Nate's own blueprints, Nate discovers a floor that officially doesn't exist: a concrete corridor carved with binding runes, sealed behind a steel door that knows his name. Vale finally confesses the truth. The tower isn't just a building. It's a cage, built over a century-old tomb, designed with ancient containment architecture to hold something that has been quietly waking for eighteen months, feeding on the fear of every tenant who has died, vanished, or fled since the day it opened. The entity behind the door, the Hollow Word, has been shaping Nate's life far longer than eighteen months. It orchestrated the bribery charge that ruined him, steered him back to the one building only he can unlock, and now holds his younger brother Eli as leverage, offering Nate power, vindication, and revenge against everyone who ever wronged him, in exchange for one thing: help it walk free. With his brother's life on the line, a retired professor's fragments of the closure ritual, and a partner who refuses to let him go in alone, Nate must descend through the tower's hidden maze toward the tomb beneath its foundation. What waits there rewrites everything he believed about his own bloodline and why the Meridian chose him from the very beginning. Closing the door will cost him something he can never get back. Refusing costs everyone else absolutely everything he has left.

They left him to burn in the ashes of his birthright, but they forgot that true power is forged in the fire. Arthur Sterling was born to inherit the most powerful martial legacy in the Aurora Empire, a family destined to guard the golden gates of the realm. But on the night of his ascension ritual, absolute betrayal strikes from within. His own uncle, Victor Sterling, allies with rival clans to slaughter the entire Sterling lineage, leaving Arthur broken and left for dead. The world believes the Sterling bloodline is fully wiped out, but unexpectedly, a reclusive master saves him.

In a world ruled by the Ascension System, survival is permission-based. At eighteen, every citizen is evaluated, awakened, and assigned a path. Those who fail are erased—cleanly, legally, without regret. Kael Ashborne fails. Declared unawakened, Kael is sentenced to execution inside a system-controlled dungeon. No skills. No stats. No divine interface to save him. His death is calculated, approved, and inevitable. Except it doesn’t happen. Through instinct, defiance, and choices the system cannot predict, Kael survives becoming a contradiction the Ascension System cannot classify or correct. Instead of granting him power, the system begins to observe him. Study him. Adapt. Hunted by system-enforcers and shadowed by a hidden group known as the Erased—people who exist outside recorded outcomes—Kael learns a terrifying truth: the system does not rule by strength, but by certainty. It closes futures, locks outcomes, and sacrifices possibility to maintain order. Kael can break those futures. Not by overpowering the system but by invalidating its decisions. As the system escalates from observation to rollback, rewriting time and reality to erase him, Kael’s existence begins to destabilize the world itself. Cities fracture. Laws glitch. People suffer under the cost of wasted authority. Forced to choose between survival and responsibility, Kael steps into a role no one was meant to fill: a living anomaly capable of reopening closed destinies. The system calls him a catastrophic variable. The world may call him something else.

Every January 11th the Skeleton Tower waits. A photographer steps inside chasing whispers. A candle burns. A city holds its breath. Behind the glass is something older than the Thames, patient, hungry, and smiling with too many mouths. One flame stands between London and the drowning. One choice stands between mercy and eternity. And once you light it… you never truly leave.

Naji's heart beats once every twenty seconds. The clan called it proof that he was defective. Too heavy to cultivate. Too slow to ascend. Too worthless to inherit their name. But when his younger brother throws him into the bottomless Great Ravine during the sacred Ascension Race, Naji discovers a truth that changes everything: his curse was never a weakness—it was a shield. Now hunted by gods, betrayed by blood, and carrying a power capable of bending gravity itself, Naji must uncover the lie at the heart of heaven. Because while the world worships those who rise, he was born with the power to drag the heavens down.

"As long as I live, I must avenge Queen Ava's death!"

Heidi, who was done with her college education, has been in pursuit of Tom and is the only one who knows his whereabouts. Tom, however, seeks supremacy. He wants to rule the world.
