A massive explosion at a stadium leaves thousands dead… and one man inexplicably alive. Bloodied, battered, and surrounded by lifeless bodies, he wakes to a message that changes everything: “Congratulations, Host. You have been awarded your first mission.” The rules are simple: complete missions assigned by the mysterious system, earn rewards, and grow stronger. Fail… and the penalties are deadly. His first mission? Set up a restaurant. Posing as a chef, he navigates the culinary world while secretly undertaking missions that test his strength, speed, intelligence, and skill beyond human limits. With each task, he grows faster, smarter, and more powerful, unlocking new recipes, abilities, and rewards.

Every mission brings new challenges, dangerous opponents, and life-or-death stakes—but he is determined to survive, thrive, and master whatever the system throws at him.

In an empire where your DNA defines your destiny, Viona was born to obey. She’s a prodigy. A killer. A spy. A blue-haired girl trained to obey… until she’s offered one thing she never had: freedom. But there’s a catch. To earn it, she must complete a suicide mission— Break the world’s most infamous prisoner out of a secret facility. The prison? Controlled by the deadliest organization on Earth: The Triangle Union. The man? The world knows him by one name— Piranha. Born with a rare genetic trait the world would kill to control, he’s more than a secret… He’s a ticking time bomb. Viona must infiltrate the prison. Get him out. But this mission is more than it seems. It’s not a job. It’s a war. A war that could destroy empires, ignite bloodlines, and tear open the darkness encoded in both of them.

They call me the 'Annex Prince.' A tragic celebrity. The weak son of murdered heroes. They're probably right. I am a coward. But the night I saw my parents torn apart by an Archon-level monster, something else latched onto my soul. It isn't one of the Heroic Spirits everyone else wanted. It's a cold, ancient voice that calls itself a 'System.' It forces memories of a long-dead warrior into my mind. It unlocks 'Berserk Modes' when I'm angry and whispers of 'Pattern Recognition' when I'm about to die. Now, I'm a pre-Resonant weakling at Eryndor Academy, surrounded by the children of elite Houses who despise me. I've been challenged to a Death Duel by a rival who blames my family for his own. They all think I'm a powerless, tragic heir, waiting to be consumed. They're right. I'm being consumed by fate and fate is teaching me to be a monster. Good thing I'm a very fast learner but what is the the catch?

He doesn’t need to follow anyone’s path. Now the ones who looked down on him… will have to watch him rise.

They should’ve never met. He was meant to stay invisible — the quiet heir who wanted nothing to do with his father’s empire or his mother’s underworld bloodline. She was the kind of girl people whispered about — bold, confident, and dangerous in ways no one could name. But fate, or maybe something far darker, had other plans. On his first day at a new college, Rhys Hayes is kidnapped by a stranger who demands one thing: “Date me for a hundred days.” Seraphine Calder. Beautiful, fearless, and hiding secrets behind every smile. What begins as a strange deal soon turns into a tangled game of power, lies, and emotions neither of them expected. Rhys wants answers — who she is, how she knows his past, and why he can’t seem to stay away. But with every day that passes, he realizes this isn’t just a game… it’s a countdown. And when the hundredth day arrives — either one of them will walk away shattered, or they’ll both fall into something they can’t escape.

They call me Vencian Vicorra… third son of a noble house. A prodigy born for greatness. They couldn’t be more wrong. I’m Luke. I woke in his body, carrying his memories and his burdens… but none of his gifts. Without any magic or training and no clue how I even got here. A midnight ritual tied my life to a fate I never wanted... my family is falling apart under charges of treason, my engagement ended without a word from me, the court watches every move. And somewhere, my death is already written. To survive, I must do the impossible... wear the mask of talent and become the man everyone expects. I’ll learn to lie with conviction and find secrets worth killing for. But every secret I uncover drags me closer to a truth that could end more than my disguise. Fail, and I’ll lose the only life I’ve found worth living. Succeed, and I might discover what killed the real Vencian... and why my death may be the key to something darker. A slow-burn story of supernatural investigation, hidden schemes, and buried secrets, where every lie reveals a deeper truth. Behind noble courts and sacred cathedrals lies a world ruled by celestial laws and occult myths, where power demands the sacrifice of identity, and the fall begins long before corruption takes hold.

"Obedience is survival. Rebellion is death." They don't teach lessons here. They enforce them. Welcome to Ordinis Academy—where freedom is forbidden and the Obedience Code is law. Every student is watched, rated, tested, and broken until nothing remains but loyalty to the system. To defy the Code is to vanish. To obey is to survive. The Obedience Code governs every breath, every thought, every action: Orders are not debated, only executed. Pain is correction. Correction is mercy. In this world of fear and control, one student refuses to kneel. But survival requires more than rebellion—it demands manipulation, deception, and turning the Code itself into a weapon. Every trial brings him closer to the truth buried beneath the academy's walls. Every rule bent draws the Eye closer to his secrets. And when the day comes, the academy will learn: the most dangerous weapon is not obedience, but the one who pretends to obey. The Obedience Code is Law. --- Add Tags: Manipulation, psychological games and thrillers, Sadist, Yandere, Overpowered.

If only I was born with a golden spoon,my life would have been so much better,I won't be looked down on and no one would ever dare throw me scorns.Just a month ago,I was brought to the hospital.The hospital was my beginning.... "Question three” He leaned in as if this one mattered most. “What’s the real identity of the new cook at the house?” The room tightened.The men straightened imperceptibly.The seconds on his watch tracked off like a slowly cutting rope.I felt Sua’s face flash behind my eyes,the way she’d looked on the floor and i felt my father’s approval like a tongue along a wound. I knew what he wanted.The truth I’d kept at the back of my head and tried not to name. I swallowed. “You lie for her” Somewhere in the room,the sound of metal being cocked snapped like a verdict.I saw one of the men lift the gun.It was a small and discreet.I lunged forward uselessly, but hands pinned my arms to my sides again.My shout was swallowed by the room. The shot cut the air.I heard Sua’s scream which tore across the corridor and then she hit with a sound that made something inside me hollow out.Her body folded and slumped in a way that seemed to slow down,each motion was like a betrayal of hope. I dropped to my knees beside her,my hands fumbled at her collar,at the blood and the fabric,at any sign of life.There was none to find.Her face which was the face I loved,was still,featured slack in a way that made my stomach fold in on itself.I cupped her cheek and it was colder than it should have been.The breath I wanted to give her came out as a soundless,broken thing. Behind me,the men moved away.Dad's voice reached me. “Remember the game,son” He said.But his words were meant for a different future.I pressed my forehead to hers until my tears mixed with the dust and the awful, permanent stillness and the only thing I could think to ask the air was why. . . .
