Synopsis: Residual Warmth: The Goddess Living in My Brand [The World is Leaking] London, 2026. To the ordinary eye, it’s a city of fog and rain. But to Xu Shangxi, a reclusive art student, the world is "thinning." Colors are fading into grey, and the geometry of reality is fracturing into silver code. The world is a leaking bucket, and its "Absolute Logic" is draining into the void. [The Awakening of Shilii] In the shadows of Bookstore No. 404, Xu encounters Shilii, a girl with silver hair and eyes that see through the fabric of existence. She is a fallen "Arbiter," a goddess who has lost her memories and her authority. To survive the encroaching Void, she stamps a jagged, grey brand onto Xu’s hand—turning him into her mortal medium. [The Price of the Brand] When a school bully snaps Xu’s favorite pencil, the "Residual Warmth" within the brand erupts. Xu discovers that he no longer just draws on paper; he draws on reality. With a stroke of his broken pen, he can cleave the space around him, rewriting the laws of physics at the cost of his own sanity. [The Hunt Begins] The sudden spike in "Logic Weight" alerts the Vayer Foundation, led by the cold and ruthless Ada Vayer. They seek to "patch" the world by erasing all anomalies—starting with Xu and the goddess hidden in his skin. [The Choice] As the fog of London turns into a digital graveyard, Xu and Shilii must journey back to the year 1616—to a mysterious Manor where the first "Logarithmic Error" occurred. “Remember, Xu Shangxi,” Shilii whispers in his mind. “The world is a lie. Only the pain from my brand is real.”

When ancient powers start returning, ordinary people awaken with incredible abilities. Veyron Okami and the underground Sealbreakers must control what the world cannot. In a city where strength comes at a cost, only cunning, courage, and teamwork can decide who survives—and who falls.

Unaware of the storm raging inside him, 16-year-old Edward Tuweku struggles to survive the chaos of adolescence—caught between the weight of relentless bullying at school and the cold grip of a strict, overbearing father who never seems to understand him. But everything shifts when he discovers a truth more terrifying than his darkest nightmares—he’s not just different. He’s not even fully human. Born of ancient magical bloodlines and carrying the rare elemental powers of lightning and water, Edward is a werecreature, the living key to a prophecy whispered through time. A forgotten war—older than civilization, darker than myth—is stirring once more, and Edward’s blood may either ignite salvation… or doom. As he plunges into a world of hidden legacies, shadowy enemies, and secrets buried deeper than the Earth's core, Edward must face a rising apocalyptic force tied to the dawn of creation itself. The fate of the world is no longer a distant tale—it’s waiting for him to choose. With fiercely loyal friends at his side and a family he never knew he had, Edward must decide: Will he rise as the storm-bringer destined to end the war—or fall as its final casualty, swallowed by a fate written before he ever drew breath? The past is watching. The future is calling. And time is running out.
