Han Jae-Won, commander of the elite Black Wolf Squad, died with guilt in his chest and blood on his hands. Betrayed by the comrade he trusted most, and forced to watch his entire squad executed in front of him, he whispered his last words alone: “I didn’t want to die like this…” But death wasn’t the end.

Now, armed with the experience of a soldier, the instincts of a leader, and a second chance at life, he will rise again in a world unprepared for him. This is the story of a broken soldier reborn with the will to climb, dominate, protect, and one day—avenge.

Saving the world at the cost of everything one holds dear - that was an ending Icard could not accept! There were praises for him! There was glory! There was status and power beyond anything mankind could imagine and yet, there was nothing. Not for him. And so, after the apocalypse ends, he trades his essence, his status and his progress to get them back. And at the center of them all was a woman, the drive behind his determination. Icard successfully regresses after a contract with his System Keeper. He has secured for himself a second chance, and his very last chance. And what his intentions this time? To save the world again? 'Haha' Icard laughs quietly. His years of experience has taught him how to be brutal beyond expectations. This time, he really doesn't care. 'The world could be saved or perish, but I'll rather let my selfishness consume it, than watch them die again...' Those words were spoken--those words where real...

Raised as a cursed orphan in the mortal world, she's blamed for every death and misfortune around her. Haunted by visions of the dead and pursued by dark spirits, ten-year-old Amelia has learned the cruelest lesson: caring about anyone gets them killed.

The daughter of a murdered Demon Lord and a slain Goddess of Light, Amelia possesses a power that could heal the realms—or destroy them. With her powers awakening and enemies closing in, Amelia must master abilities she doesn't understand, alongside a war god who defies heaven for her and allies who see past the "calamity" everyone fears. Because the corrupt ruler who murdered her parents is still hunting her, and only she can expose the lie that's poisoned three realms for decades. To save the world, Amelia will have to embrace what she's always feared: her destiny as the bridge between light and shadow. Even if it costs her everything.

On rainy mornings in Tokyo, fourteen-year-old Shinji Minakawa escapes his brutal home life to find solace in an abandoned winter garden. There, he encounters Hakurage Shizu, a mysterious fifteen-year-old gardener living alone among impossible blooms and fading memories. Shinji's world is one of violence and poverty—a father whose fists speak louder than words, a mother drowning in three jobs, and nights spent at a convenience store just to survive. Art is his only refuge, though his parents call it worthless dreaming. Hakurage's world ended six years ago when his parents died in a storm he believes he caused. Now he tends their botanical research facility alone, fighting to preserve their legacy before creditors seize everything in six months. The garden is all he has left—and it's dying. They strike a deal: Shinji will create paintings for Hakurage to sell, funding the garden's restoration. But the subjects Hakurage requests are strangely specific—a red swing set, a paper boat in hydrangeas, a broken fountain. Each painting awakens something in Shinji, fragments of a past he can't quite remember. As the rainy season deepens, so does their bond. Two kids carrying unbearable weights find in each other what they've been missing: someone who understands that survival is its own kind of courage. But the paintings are more than commissions—they're keys to a forgotten childhood friendship, to a tragedy that destroyed both their families simultaneously, to a connection that was severed but never truly broken. With time running out and their demons closing in, Shinji and Hakurage must face the truth buried beneath six years of grief and trauma. In a garden where winter flowers bloom against all logic, they'll discover that some bonds grow back stronger than before—like petals pushing through frost, beautiful and impossible and utterly real.

In a reality governed by gods, fate, and immutable laws, there exists one being who should never have been allowed to live. Axiomel was never sanctioned by the age he was born into. Neither chosen nor created, he slipped into existence through a flaw in reality itself. Adopted by a mortal woman, he grows up weak, powerless, and unseen—until the indifference of the gods shatters the only life he has ever known. When Zeus, King of Gods, attempts to erase him from the timeline, the universe hesitates. Surviving an execution that should have ended him completely, Axiomel becomes an anomaly that gods cannot explain and fate cannot bind. Watched by Yesh, hunted by Olympus, and tied unknowingly to the slumbering chaos of Azathoth, he begins a journey across mythologies, timelines, and realities. As eldritch powers seep into creation and pantheons fracture, Axiomel walks a path no being has ever taken—mastering concepts, defying absolutes, and forging an existence beyond predetermination. In a multiverse where even gods are bound by law, he is the exception. And reality does not know how to finish writing him.

On June 29, 2125, the apocalypse occurred on the very day of the launch of an artificial intelligence satellite launched by a world-class company called Pandora Tech. The purpose of this AI-based satellite was to control the world's automated electronic systems, including all internet networks, services, and free Wi-Fi. However, an hour after launch, the satellite returned to Earth and transformed everything—from machines, plants, animals, and humans—into half-zombie, half-robot monsters. A 17-year-old boy who experienced this event was rescued by a system and returned to the morning before the apocalypse. Having failed to save those closest to him, the system finally unlocked and gave him the power to become a werewolf, absorbing souls to transform them into Shadow Wolves. Afterward, he began to survive in the post-apocalyptic world alone, with only half his humanity and soul remaining, having failed to carry out a mission he knew nothing about. This is a war of survival between mysticism and magic against technology. Will he save the world or destroy it?

Mythical stones decide who is worthy of wielding power, while stolen coins feed on human fates.

As ancient seals shatter and the Ravagers of the Vein emerge, Lilithia’s existence is revealed to be more than a key to salvation… She is the door that will force the world to confront its own lie. Featuring a dual LitRPG system of Living Stones and Heart Coins, where power grows through synchronization, stolen fate, and dangerous progression.
