Lin Chen lived a disciplined, invisible life in a modern Chinese city—until arrogance at work cost him his job and hunger pushed him into the shadows. One desperate mistake draws the attention of the city’s underworld, where power moves quietly and mercy is never free. Betrayed, hunted, and forced to erase his identity, Lin Chen survives only by intelligence, restraint, and will. He doesn’t seek power—but power has already noticed him. In a city ruled by unseen queens, survival is just the beginning.

In a harsh neighborhood where violence is a daily reality, a thirteen-year-old boy tries to protect what little family he has left.

This is a story about brotherhood, loss, and the price of growing up too fast.

Jaeho Han's father was his hero. A man built like Hercules who worked multiple jobs to give his kids the education he never had. But after the twins were born, the workload became too much. His father's health deteriorated silently, refusing help, hiding his condition even from his wife. He died when Jaeho was thirteen, leaving behind a grief-stricken mother who could barely look at her children without drowning in guilt. She lasted four years before she disappeared. At seventeen, Jaeho became the sole guardian of his five-year-old twin sisters, Jia and Serin. He worked multiple jobs like his father before him, scraping by on scholarship and sheer willpower. School became a nightmare—bullied for being poor, for being an orphan, for being a year older than everyone else due to his late admission due to making sure his sisters' education came first. But he endured it all without fighting back, because one wrong move meant losing everything. The debt piled up. ₩737,500,000. Over $500,000. Loan sharks circling. Bills suffocating him. He smiled for his sisters every day, but at night, he was drowning. One morning, desperate and broken, he helped a recently divorced woman at his laundromat job. She couldn't pay but promised to refund him once her banking app stops acting up, so he transferred his last ₩50,000 to help pay for whatever it was she wanted. Hopefully, it would return with a nice tip. A cyan screen appeared in his peripherals.

Jaeho questioned before looking at the woman with suspicion. For the first time in five years, Jaeho could breathe. But the system wasn't done with him yet. Every won he spent on mature, lonely women came back multiplied His father told him that as long as you keep moving forward, things will work out. Jaeho's about to find out just how far forward he can go. --------- Content Tags → Smut / R18+ → Harem, Comedy, Slice of life → System-Elements → Slightly towards Netori [Mc stealing and using others wife] → No Yuri → No Netorase / Yaoi / BL → System + Worldbuilding Driven

They were wrong. Back in Delhi, their life should have gone back to normal. The streets are alive, the city hums with the illusion of peace, and the memories of that broken future should have been left behind. But shadows don't fade so easily. Strange signs are appearing. Dreams bleed into waking hours. And deep beneath the noise of everyday life, something old and dangerous is stirring.

In a world where dreams shape power, those known as Somniarchs manifest reality-warping concepts born from their sleep, visions fueled by desire, fear, and trauma. When a quiet high school student named Rei triggers a catastrophic anomaly without even knowing how, the world takes notice. Branded an unregistered threat, Rei is taken by a secret government division that monitors Somniarch activity. But Rei is different. Unlike others who draw power from dreams, he cannot sleep without reliving a nightmare, one where his sister nearly drowned, his parents died, and a nameless demon first whispered to him. That demon never left. As Rei is pushed toward his limits in a world that classifies people by danger level, he faces a truth far worse than imprisonment: his power does not come from dreams… but from something awake. When survival demands a choice, Rei is offered a pact known as The Covenant, a bond that grants terrifying power at the cost of his mind, his autonomy, and eventually his humanity. Because in this world, dreams don’t save you. They consume you. And some nightmares are never meant to end.
