MYSTERIES OF ARCHIVE

What happens when your past memories start to unfold and you start questioning your existence. Something similar happened with Nero. A junior archivist living a quiet, predictable life, Nero has spent years cataloguing fragments of broken timelines, safely removed from the events they record in the ARCHIVE. His world is built on routine, logic, and the comforting certainty that the past cannot reach back. But one night, the Archive breaks its own rules. A record appears that should not exist. A classification without meaning. A name that should never have been stored. And suddenly, the machine designed to observe time begins to observe him. As unexplained anomalies ripple through the Archive, Nero finds himself at the center of something the system cannot define—something that responds to his presence, reacts to his thoughts, and grows stronger each time he tries to understand it. The more he searches for answers, the more reality begins to behave as though it remembers him… differently. Guided—and watched—by Helia Krusate, an analyst who knows far more than she admits, Nero is forced to confront the possibility that the Archive is not merely a passive observer of history, but a living structure with its own memory, intent, and secrets buried beneath layers of recorded truth. In a place where timelines fracture silently and identities can be rewritten without warning, Nero must question everything he knows about existence, causality, and the nature of self. Because some records are not meant to be uncovered. And some lives were never meant to exist. As the boundary between data and reality begins to blur, one question echoes through the endless halls of the Archive: What happens when the past refuses to stay recorded—and starts looking back?

Summoner Online: I Became the Tutorial Boss with a 999+ Villainess

Summoner Guild Online was supposed to be the launch of the century. For millions of players, it was the ultimate escape. A world of endless adventure, legendary loot, and guild wars that would make history. But for Kai Grimer, it became a death trap. He doesn't spawn in the starting village like the others. Instead, he wakes up in the suffocating darkness of the Tutorial Dungeon—not as a player, but as the final boss. An NPC designed to be slaughtered by wave after wave of newbies farming their first XP. The logout button doesn't work. The system won't respond. And if he dies here, there's no respawn. Desperate and hunted, Kai activates his only skill, [Grand Summon]. It's a gamble: sacrifice XP to pull a random servant from across dimensions. He's hoping for something useful. A knight. Maybe a mage. Even a halfway-decent slime would do. What he gets instead is Lyra, the Abyssal Empress. [Rating: 9999 Class: World-Ending Calamity Danger Level: Apocalypse-Tier.] She's devastatingly beautiful. Unimaginably powerful. And completely, utterly insane. She despises humanity, mocks the system, and has enough power to crack continents in half. But thanks to the summoning contract, she has one unbreakable rule: absolute obedience to Kai. And somehow, that obedience has twisted into something far more dangerous—obsession. But Kai isn't running anymore. With each wave of players he defeats, he earns XP. With each summon he pulls, his army grows. Knights. Demons. Spirits. Beasts. And perhaps... more dangerous beauties who don't appreciate Lyra's self-proclaimed monopoly on their Master's attention. [You have defeated 47 Players] [New Summon Available] Trapped between overpowered summons fighting for his favor, guilds hunting his legend, and a game system that's starting to break under his existence, Kai has one goal: He won't just survive Summoner Guild Online. He'll conquer it. And if a few world-ending beauties want to fight over him along the way? Well, that's just part of being the strongest summoner.

Transcending Realms With My Leveling System As A Demon

#SINGLE-FEMALE LEAD #Overpowered #Growth #Magic #High-Fantasy #NO HAREM #BETRAYAL #Mystery #Tragedy Zylus's life had been nothing short of a nightmare since his childhood. He was constantly bullied at school, detested and ignored by almost everyone except for his loving family. But his family's death cut those dreams short. The accumulated loneliness and suffering from this event pushed him into a severe depression, and he ultimately decided to take his life’s final decision… Revenge. This is a story about revenge and growth. The main character is smart, he has development, and will do anything to reach his goal. There is almost 0 filler; if there is filler, it's important towards the story, so no chapters you'll pay for will go to waste. I'll add the filler once the novel is finished, as side chapters. I can also 100% reassure you I'll be finishing this novel, so don't worry, I won't drop. Htrae is split within 3 realms, and the power system is very easy to understand.
