Han Soorin thought landing the job of a lifetime—makeup artist for LUMEN, the hottest K-pop boy band in the world—would be her dream come true. Billboards, music shows, sold-out arenas… and her ultimate bias, Jung Haejin, standing just a breath away. But reality? A nightmare wrapped in designer clothes. Haejin, the flawless leader adored by millions, is nothing like the angelic idol Gleams worship. Offstage he’s cold, sharp-tongued, and impossible to please. The first words he throws at Soorin? A sneer at her “lack of manners” and a warning she won’t survive a week. Yet every day backstage pulls her deeper into their chaotic world—glittering stages, vicious rumors, obsessive fans, and the suffocating pressure of perfection. She sees the cracks in Haejin’s mask, the loneliness behind the spotlight… and against her better judgment, her hatred begins to blur into something far more dangerous. When a scandal threatens to destroy them both, Soorin must decide: walk away from the idol she swore to hate, or risk everything to stand by the man she never expected to possibly... love? ✨✨✨✨✨ [Chapter: 5-20 Update Daily] [Update schedule: 10+ comments or 2 reviews=1 Bonus chapter]

Most people get isekai’d by walking in front of a truck. Violet got hit by one while sitting on her own bed. Before she can even process the fact that a semi-truck met her face, she’s dragged into a new world by a frantic System Guide named Angus. Her consolation prize? A "New Player Welcome Bonus." One single, premium gacha pull to help her survive. She didn’t get a holy sword. She didn’t get a healing dragon. She pulled the Demon King. He is the SSS-Rank Calamity. An ancient being of pure destruction. He is arrogant, he is terrifying, and he is regrettably, distractingly gorgeous. He is also wearing a gold necklace that binds him to Violet’s will—and he takes that personally. The super unbreakable necklace ensures he can't kill his master, but the Demon Lord seems to view that more as a suggestion than a requirement. Her survival plan is simple: 1: Don't die to the monsters. 2: Don't die to her own familiar’s malicious compliance. 3: Absolutely, under no circumstances, tell the murder-god that he looks hot when he’s angry.

I. The Cursed Beginning (1852) The story follows 16-year-old John Joyce as he is thrust into a hell of war and misery. When his alcoholic father murders his mother, the child inside John dies, and he drenches his hands in his own father's blood. From that moment, he is taken under the wing of his uncle, the ruthless and resilient Silas, who drills him in the art of killing. Silas’s "10-Second Rule"—the time it takes to reload a musket—becomes the razor’s edge between John’s life and his grave. II. Riya: Between Love and Despair In December 1852, Silas sacrifices himself, entrusting his beloved Riya to John’s protection. For two years, John and Riya wander the desolate battlefields, clinging to survival. Riya is a shattered soul, longing for the death that claimed Silas. Yet, over time, a forbidden and fierce love ignites between them. This fragile happiness is short-lived; in the summer of 1855, Riya is struck down by a "White Coat" bullet right before John’s eyes, leaving his spirit utterly decimated. III. "God’s Devils" and a Bitter Hope Left alone on the "Path of Death," John gathers a small band of war orphans and helpless women. He encounters 13-year-old Silas the Second, a boy with nimble fingers whom John trains into a lethal marksman. No longer just a soldier, John becomes a reluctant leader responsible for the lives of 38 souls, navigating them through the furnace of war. IV. Color Fort and Leyla (1856) John’s group merges with Kevin Color’s camp. Severely wounded and teetering on the brink of death, John is saved by a young woman named Leyla. She becomes John’s second love, the only light capable of softening his battle-hardened heart. However, Kevin Color’s treacherous ambition and thirst for power turn the sanctuary of the fort into a blood-soaked slaughterhouse. V. The Tragic Finale: Closing the Circle In a final act of betrayal, Kevin Color sells out to the "White Coats," capturing John and Leyla. The cycle of retribution repeats Silas’s past sins: John and Leyla are bound back-to-back to an ancient tree and burned alive. Standing amidst the roaring flames, they find solace in each other’s arms, their final breath spent singing a song of love as they turn to ash.

Prologue He devotes himself to love, and sacrifices for righteousness. The downfall of the nation and the people's loss of identity are obsessions for one who forgets grudges, and dedicates himself fully to the people. He dedicates his life to the nation, aspiring for his people, lives for love, and dies for righteousness. A peaceful nation and joyful people are the aspirations of one who regards the nation as everything. He charged into the flames of war like a moth drawn to fire, hazarding his life for freedom. To fight to the death for deliverance was the obligation of one who lived for his loved ones and was willing to die for his family. He repays kindness and avenges grievances.

The people. The crossroads. Who will endure in pursuit of their dreams until the final moment of this grand saga of farewell and demise in an age of Heroic Songs in the World of Chaos?

Family is a luxury not everyone can afford. Adelyn learned that the day Clara returned to the Scott family —and she quietly stopped belonging. No one abused her. No one hurt her openly. But the love that was once hers alone became divided. The attention that once chose her … became something she had to borrow. And whenever something precious stood between her and Clara —Adelyn was the one asked to let go. Not once. Not twice. But every single time. Her dreams. Her choices. Her place in the family. Her heart didn’t break in a single moment —it wore down slowly … until nothing remained worth fighting for. So, she erased herself from their world. Not in anger. Not in revenge. But to save what little of herself was left. ————— Seven years later, Adelyn returned. Not for the Scott family. Not for their love. She came back for the dreams she was once forced to abandon —and this time, nothing would be taken from her. No compromises. No sacrifices. Only her life. Her rules. She breathed in freedom. “No family…no shackles.” But just then— Two small arms wrapped around her legs. She stiffened. Looking down, she met a pair of familiar doe eyes staring up at her with unwavering trust. “Mama … Eira waited long for you. Don’t leave again.” …Mama? Before she could understand or react, a tall shadow fell over them. A man stood there —gaze sharp, cold, claiming —looking at her like she had belonged to him. “You dared to show up again?” Adelyn felt clueless. She would have asked him what he meant, however — Before she could speak — the ground vanished beneath her feet. A powerful arm lifted her effortlessly. “Since you dared …” his voice dropped —low, restrained, dangerous. “Don’t think of escaping again.

After three hundred years as a legendary grandmaster, Zhung Hang dies peacefully in his cultivation world—only to awaken in a modern hospital bed. Doctors smile and tell him it was all a coma dream. Three centuries of cultivation, brotherhood, enlightenment—gone. Replaced by a reality where no one ever wanted him. Parents who saw him as a burden. A little brother who died forgotten. Love that was never love. On a rainy night, he slits his throat with one final vow: "If reality is crueler than any dream, I will carve the next one with my own hands, even if I have to become something neither demon nor saint." Death refuses him. He awakens a third time as an young boy named Zhung in a world far crueler than either before. Here, there is no qi, no spiritual roots, no merciful heaven. Power comes through the Nine Refinements of Will—a brutal path where mortals must drink the fresh blood of divine or demonic beasts to tear open an Aperture within their flesh. In this world, Zhung has only one light: his mother Zheng Han, the third and only person across three lifetimes who has ever loved him without condition. For sixteen years he hides behind a gentle smile, secretly feeding travelers to a beast in the forest cave, waiting for the day its blood will finally let him begin his path. He does not walk the righteous path. He does not walk the demonic path. He walks the Broken Path—a third road forged from the refusal to ever again be heaven's tragic puppet.
