Fractured Code

Kanayo_Kanayo
Kaito lived a normal life—or at least, that’s what he believed. A quiet routine. School. Home. The same streets, the same faces. Nothing ever changed. Until the day everything did. After a strange incident he doesn’t fully understand, Kaito begins to notice subtle differences in himself. His reactions sharpen. His awareness heightens. And sometimes… his body moves before he even thinks. At first, it’s easy to ignore. Until someone dies. A student is found after a fall from the upper floor of the school building. The story spreads quickly—an accident, they say. But something about it doesn’t sit right with Kaito. Not the timing. Not the details. And definitely not the feeling he had before it happened. As suspicion quietly builds around him and others, Kaito finds himself pulled into something deeper than a simple school incident. Clues begin to connect. People begin to act differently. And the truth refuses to stay buried. At the same time, his own body continues to change in ways he can no longer deny. Between growing tension, hidden motives, and emotions he doesn’t fully understand—especially when it comes to Maya—Kaito is forced to face a reality far more dangerous than he expected. Because whatever is happening… didn’t start with the school. And it won’t end there.

The Extra: Subject 082

Rio only wanted to see how the story ended. Instead, he woke up inside it. Not as the protagonist, not even as a supporting character—but as someone who barely existed in the narrative. An extra with no importance, no future, and no place in the story’s direction. At least, that’s how it was supposed to be. Now in the body of Rio Valen, a disgraced noble exiled from his own house, he finds himself in a region the original story barely touched—one driven as much by advanced technology as it is by arcane power. And buried beneath it, something far worse. The facility he wakes up in shouldn’t exist. The experiments conducted there shouldn’t have succeeded. And whatever was placed inside him was never meant to survive. As fragments of memory return—both his own and the life he inherited—Rio begins to understand the situation he’s in. The world still follows its original course. The key figures are still moving toward the same future. But his existence doesn’t fit anywhere within it. Even so, people begin to notice him. Not because of who he is—but because of something they can’t quite explain. A presence. A flaw. Or something far more dangerous. Some approach out of curiosity. Others, for reasons he doesn’t understand. And a few, simply because staying away isn’t an option. With no role to follow and no clear path ahead, Rio is left with a simple choice: Stay invisible and survive. Or step into a story that was never meant to include him. Because in a world that already has its main character— an extra that shouldn’t exist might be the only thing that can change it. **The cover used is temperoray, I hold no credits towards the art**
