System, Game, Action, Fantasy, Urban Adventure. Liam Parker is just a broke teenage boy from a poor family, bullied at school and crushed at home. After losing his father, he and his mother are treated like dirt by their own relatives. When his greedy uncle and cold grandmother try to sell their only home, Liam finally snaps but he’s powerless. That night, everything changed. He receives a strange invite to a new online game called Nexus Trials, created by a mystery organization known only as The Nexus. All he has to do is wear a strange wristband—and suddenly, he’s no longer in his world. He’s on a never-ending bridge… with ten thousand other players. When the bridge starts breaking apart, panic breaks out. Only 2,578 make it to the other side. Then a voice speaks: “Welcome to the Nexus. This is not just a game. If you die here, you die in the real world.” From now on, Liam must fight to survive through 10 brutal levels filled with monsters, mind games, and player-vs-player battles. Each level is harder. The rewards are great—but so is the risk.

Allen lost his job after being wrongly accused and his sister was being adopted by a loan shark who he had loaned money from and wasn't able to pay back. He is left to go beg the people who had abandoned him but got humiliated. His mother died too, taking away the hope he had. He felt lost and wanted the world to end. He was given a sunglass by an old woman which he hesitantly collected. Wearing the sunglasses, he discovered it was an advanced system that would bring riches to him. Now, he would get back to everyone who made his life miserable. But, there was a limit to the sunglass power of which he wasn't aware.

He was poor, dumped, and humiliated. Now he's the most dangerous man in the city. Everyone called Ethan Cross a failure. A broke delivery guy. A loser dumped by his fiancée in front of a crowd. But his life changes overnight when he awakens a mysterious voice in his mind. "Mission unlocked: Earn $1,000 in 24 hours. Reward: Wealth Enhancement Trait." What starts as a simple task turns into a journey of unstoppable growth. He builds an empire, destroys those who mocked him, and turns the city upside down. From trash to tycoon, from silence to power—the world will remember his name. But every reward comes with a price. And Ethan’s rise may trigger something much darker than he ever expected…

Ares Valen was an ordinary man—until a lightning storm tore reality apart and hurled him into another world. He wakes up inside the dying body of a forgotten prince on a collapsing frontier: a barren desert, starving civilians, half-orc raiders, berserk tribes, and warlords fighting over the last scraps of land. Death closes in from every direction. Then a familiar voice echoes in his mind: “Rome: Total War system initialized.” The world changes. With this strange power, Ares can summon Roman legions, build ancient cities, unlock divine blessings, and command armies that grow stronger after every victory. As the chosen War Priest of Jupiter, he gains divine skills, awakens legendary commanders, and turns a dying settlement into a rising force feared across the frontier. But enemies are everywhere— dark mages, barbarian clans, forgotten gods, and kingdoms long fallen into ruin. In the shadows, something ancient begins to stir again… the same force that once destroyed this land. Aretian has only one path left: Rise. Conquer. Survive. And forge a new Rome in a world that has never known its might. War. Strategy. Divine power. A legend begins at the edge of the desert.

Julian’s heart skipped a beat. His mind raced as he tried to make sense of what he was seeing. He knew Ethan and Eva were close—too close at times—but this was different. This felt... wrong. His eyes flickered over the rest of the conversation, each message confirming his worst fear. The exchanges were casual at first, playful even, but then they turned more intimate. There was talk of meeting up “in secret,” of how much they missed each other, of their “special time” together. Julian’s throat tightened, the words blurring as his pulse quickened. He scrolled back through the messages, his hands trembling as the truth slowly sunk in.

The heir of the richest group in the city came to his rescue. But it turned out that he recognized his birthmark. "Son?" He exclaimed at the sight of it. Knowing that it could only be his long thought dead son.

As a rich son in law, he wants to hide and live a secret calm life, however, despised by his mother in law, he has to show his real identity and make her finally see him in a new light and his wife…?
