The Path of Power (The Emperor Trials)

It began with silence. Not the kind that crept through rooms late at night, or the kind that blanketed cities before a storm—but a silence that stretched across continents. A pause. A universal hush. Then, all at once, every living person on Earth heard it not through their ears, but deep inside their minds. "A new emperor has been born." The words were clear. Ancient. Powerful. Spoken in no language and yet understood by all. Some froze mid-step. Some wept without knowing why. Others—those with power or knowledge of the unseen—felt a ripple of energy surge through the layers of reality. The message didn’t stop at Earth. It passed through dreams, planes, and dimensions. And somewhere deep beneath layers of forgotten space, ancient things stirred. Beings locked away for centuries shifted in their prisons. Some smiled. Others screamed. Not all of them were sane anymore. Most of these creatures once gods, demons, or monsters had been cast into the crevices of existence. Trapped in what humans now called hells, their forms and minds had twisted over the ages. Once noble or divine, they had become demonic, dangerous, desperate. The message had confirmed what they had long feared and hoped: the imperial line had returned. An emperor had risen. In the deepest chambers of shadow governments and secret orders, alarms were triggered. Hidden organizations the kind that even presidents answered to scrambled into action. They knew what the return of an emperor meant: chaos... or salvation. And somewhere on the slopes of an old mountain, a young man named Philip stood he had just accepted the final legacy He didn’t hear the message. Not like the others. For him, the silence remained. But something within him shifted.

Cosmic RE : The Diamond championship

Two souls. One destiny. A galaxy teetering on the edge of ruin. She awakens among the stars—her memories charred by fire, her homeworld reduced to ash, her heart broken beyond repair. Alone in a spacecraft far from the world she once called home, she finds herself entangled in a stranger’s hands—one who saved her from certain death… or perhaps from something worse. But salvation comes at a price. The universe she wakes into is dazzling, dangerous, and deceptively vibrant. Floating cities glisten above shattered worlds. Alien markets bustle with life and secrets. The stars themselves seem to whisper forgotten truths. And within the shadows of this beauty, a darker economy thrives—one that trades in rare lives, lost lineages, and haunted bloodlines. She is more than just a survivor. She is hunted. The man who holds her hand smiles with kindness, yet his eyes hide storms. Once a nameless wanderer with a sword soaked in blood and vengeance, he walks a fine line between savior and monster. His blade—cursed, sentient, and starving—demands violence. His past is stitched with betrayal. And his future? Forged in war. Together, they travel from neon-lit space hubs to forbidden black markets. Through laughter over alien food and tears beneath artificial stars, a fragile trust begins to bloom. But behind every smile lurks a secret. Behind every act of protection, a motive. He calls her a sister. But is it love? Or leverage? Meanwhile, the cosmic balance trembles. The great royal houses have vanished in silence. The multiversal rulers fall one by one, replaced by whispers of a coming reckoning. Rogue bladers with dragon-forged weapons rise from the ashes. Secret organizations move in the shadows. And ancient blades murmur of forgotten empires. In the heart of this chaos lies a single, burning question: Who is she, truly? Is she a relic of a lost lineage? A weapon shaped by fate? Or merely a pawn in another’s deadly game? As assassins close in and friends turn into foes, she must decide who to trust, what to remember, and whether to forgive a man drenched in blood… a man who might be her only shield in a universe that wants her chained or dead. But she is not fragile. Not anymore. A blade is beginning to awaken inside her—a truth sharper than steel, forged by love, betrayal, and the silence of space. And when it strikes, the stars themselves will bleed.

REVENGE OF DARK SECRETS

A powerful and ruthless Korean mafia, comprised of five influential leaders, operates an illicit human trafficking ring under the guise of a legitimate conglomerate, Haechi Holdings. They systematically abduct and murder individuals who uncover their operations, harvesting their body parts for sale on the black market, while their crimes are meticulously covered up by corrupt top security authorities, plunging the nation into a state of fearful silence. Kim Min-ji, a diligent compliance analyst at Haechi Holdings, accidentally uncovers the horrifying truth of this operation – a vast network of disappearances, murders, and organ harvesting, with victims' remains stored in a highly secure hidden facility. Driven by a desperate need for justice, she gathers irrefutable evidence, but is discovered during her attempt to obtain physical proof from the mafia's hidden warehouse. Captured and brutally murdered on the spot by Director Choi, one of the mafia leaders, Min-ji's body parts are subsequently harvested and stored alongside the other victims. Miraculously, Min-ji's still-living heart is transplanted into the body of a young man, Lee Jin-woo (이진우), who suffered a severe accident on the same night. She awakens in Jin-woo's body, grappling with the traumatic memories of her death and the surreal reality of her new male identity. Her desperate attempts to expose the mafia and explain her soul-swapping ordeal are dismissed by medical professionals as a symptom of trauma and mental instability, leaving her isolated and disbelieved. Embracing this new existence, Min-ji, now in Jin-woo's form, resolves to dedicate her life to a singular, all-consuming purpose: exacting vengeance for herself and for every innocent victim of the mafia's atrocities. She vanishes for six months, undergoing an intense and rigorous transformation. During this period, she hones herself into a formidable force: a master combatant, a precise sniper, an expert driver, and a financially independent individual with an extensive network of contacts and a skilled hacker ally. Her meticulously planned return is marked by a devastating personal blow – the discovery of her mother's mysterious death during her absence. Overwhelmed by grief, she returns to her childhood home, where she unearths a hidden wooden box containing irrefutable evidence that her mother was also murdered, further fueling her burning desire for retribution. With her resolve solidified, Jin-woo (Min-ji) embarks on her grand mission of revenge. Her first targets are the six top security authorities who colluded with the mafia, systematically eliminating them one by one. Next, she turns her attention to the five personal secretaries of the mafia leaders, who aided in covering up the crimes, dispatching them through unique and untraceable methods, her own actions expertly concealed by her hacker. Finally, she confronts the five mafia leaders themselves, orchestrating their demise without leaving a trace of evidence. Despite intense investigations, authorities are unable to determine the perpetrator. Once her mission is complete, Jin-woo releases all the accumulated evidence to the public, exposing the full, horrific truth of the mafia's operations and the systemic corruption that enabled them. The nation is left in shock and disbelief. A mass memorial is held in honor of the victims, bringing a profound sense of closure and relief to Jin-woo. Having achieved "her and his" revenge, Min-ji continues to live in her new male identity, a silent avenger who brought justice to a corrupt world.
