Under The Oak Tree Manta

For years, Leo played the role of a low-key, strong but "dim-witted" son-in-law to the influential Zhao family.

They controlled his every move, belittling his intelligence and even framing him to cover their own faults.

Synopsis – The Unexpected Heir In the small county of Cadbury, within the bustling Tulzar metropolis of Vernada, Cruz Piper is mocked as a worthless man living off his wife Lesley’s family wealth. Scorned by his mother-in-law, Margaret Piper, and pushed aside so Lesley can be matched with Gerald, heir to an influential Tulzar family, Cruz endures humiliation in silence. But Cruz is not who he seems. Presumed dead years ago, he is secretly the heir to the Archer dynasty, the wealthiest family in the world, and an undercover spy working for his country. His disguise as a powerless husband has been his greatest weapon—until betrayal and heartbreak threaten to blow his cover apart. When Lesley divorces him under her mother’s pressure, Cruz loses his marriage but finds an unlikely new love. Fueled by years of ridicule, his patience breaks, and he sets a dangerous plan in motion. In secret, Cruz bankrolls the Piper family, raising them into sudden wealth through an anonymous investment—only to later reveal himself as both their benefactor and the heir they scorned. The revelation shakes Vernada and the world: Cruz Archer lives. Global markets react, enemies move against him, and old alliances fracture. The Pipers, desperate and humiliated, scheme to win him back, but Cruz is no longer the meek man they once controlled. As enemies close in and vengeance burns hotter, Cruz must choose between reclaiming his power as the Archer heir, burning his enemies to ash, or embracing the fragile possibility of love and redemption. The world thought him dead. The Pipers thought him worthless. They were all wrong.

Kamu and Lampa Kingdoms lived to fight all the time. Kamu was a land with no respect for human life and love except, for those with royal blood.

A thousand years ago, the world was consumed by an apocalyptic catastrophe. A thousand feet tall Sword came from above and setttled on earth. The earth itself twisted under the weight of its power, and from the fallout emerged monstrous creatures born from radiation and chaos it brought. In the centuries that followed, humanity clawed its way back from the brink of extinction. Massive fortress cities now stand as bastions of survival, shielding the remnants of mankind from the horrors that lurk beyond their walls. Over time, a new power system emerged — one that allowed humans to awaken unique abilities at the age of sixteen. Some gained bloodline powers, inheriting ancient strengths. Others awakened elemental affinities, commanding fire, water, or lightning as extensions of their will. But when Aren Hunter faced his awakening ceremony, he awakened… nothing. No bloodline. No element. Instead, something entirely different stirred within him — a mysterious interface that called itself the Creation System. “You can create any technique you desire — as long as you have the points to pay for it.” It also granted him the ability to cultivate any technique placed within its slots. Now, armed with this strange and limitless power, Aren must forge his own path. Will he rise to protect his family and defend humanity against the darkness — or fade away as another forgotten name lost to time? --- System Interface: [Host: Aren Hunter] [Tier: Non-Awakened] [Slot 1: Inactive (0/100)] [Slot 2: Locked] [Slot 3: Locked] [Slot 4: Locked] [Slot 5: Locked] [Points: 0]

Aric Blackthorn is cursed by a power that loves him too fiercely, a psychic leviathan with no respect for boundaries—a Devil’s Fruit that warps flesh, mind, and fate. When House Blackthorn is torn apart by ancient betrayals, Aric must master psychic warfare and arcane combat to survive. But the power inside him hungers, and if he gives too much, it might devour everything he holds dear. Devil’s Fruit: I Couldn’t Evolve is a brutal, sensorial journey into love turned monstrous, where sarcasm scythes through blood‑dark magic and each spell is a promise of beauty and violence. Aric Blackthorn awakens in the ruined halls of his ancestral keep, the psychic presence of his Devil’s Fruit thrumming in his mind—a beast that speaks in riddles and carves runic fractures through reality. Determined to reclaim his legacy, he forges uneasy alliances: Seris the shadowsmith, Vira the mercurial envoy, and Kael the steadfast guard. Every encounter sparks a battle of senses and strategy—color‑bleeding mana webs, sigil‑etched swords, psychic pressure like thunder in the veins. As Aric climbs the ladder of power, House Blackthorn fractures under envy, and rival factions—Elowen’s hollow‑vein cult, Garrick’s iron‑sigil enforcers, Thane’s dread‑spiral cabal—seek to claim the psychic core within him. But when his psychic companion Lysander whispers that love is the greatest threat, Aric must choose: let the fruit consume him, or turn its monstrous devotion into salvation. Sacrifices will bleed sincerity, sarcasm will break bones, and comedy will red‑raw the absurdity of power.
