Synopsis: Limited by knowledge due to royal restrictions yet filled with curiosity since birth, Orin Mystiq tackles the mysteries unfolding in one of the most enigmatic places on Wanderlust: Ouroboros. Here, natural, mystical laws don’t function as expected—and what does work is cranked up to eleven. While Orin can negate several mystical laws and zealously solve mysteries beyond everyone’s comprehension, normal means alone aren’t enough to crack this case. A touch of humankind becomes essential—an element Orin finds utterly monotonous. To shore up his weaknesses and navigate the labyrinth of human involvement, he seeks wisdom from the foremost expert on Wanderers: Hem Lock, a Sentinel burdened by his own demons, manifested in the form of twins, assigned to him as subordinates. Together, they compensate for each other’s shortcomings, delving deeper into the mystical mechanics of Mystica to solve the world’s first “Mystic Mystery." ———||———{{-_-}}———||——— Power System :: TOSHI : An ancient word for beings that have evolved through the essence of any given energy.

Three days. That’s how close I was to marrying Alistair, the man I’d loved for six years, the man whose life I’d literally saved with my own rare blood. I was just admiring the final pearl on my wedding dress, a gown I’d poured my soul into, when he called. The wedding? Off. He was marrying my stepsister, Ivy. Her dying wish, he said. Six months to live, maybe less. The kicker? He’d already taken my wedding dress from my studio for her. Just like that, six years, countless transfusions, our shared dreams – all tossed aside for the girl who’d made my life a living hell since childhood. He even offered me “compensation,” as if my future had a price tag. But if Alistair and Ivy thought I’d just crumble, they seriously underestimated me. They wanted my fiancé? Fine. But it would cost them. First, our multi-million-dollar fashion company, Evening Gala – built on my designs, my vision. He signed it over. Then, a cool million for the stolen dress. He paid. Another million for the wedding jewelry they dared to ask me to hand over for Ivy. Cha-ching. You’d think they’d learn. But no. Their next proposal was the most insulting yet: Alistair actually suggested that I should just wait. That after Ivy’s ‘inevitable’ passing in a few months, he and I could just pick up where we left off, have an even better wedding. Seriously? Enough was enough. If Ivy wanted to play bride with my life, she was going to get a taste of what happens when you push someone too far. Let's just say her hospital room celebration involved a lot more smoke, water, and screaming than she bargained for, all thanks to a little wedding gift from yours truly. Now they know I’m not the same Hazel they could walk all over. I’ve got my company, a pile of their cash, and a whole lot of scores to settle. They think this is over? This game of revenge is just getting started. And believe me, I play to win.

I found myself lost in a different world, the characters I once read about in web novels were in front of me, harassing me, ruining my damn day. Also, a shitty system that asks you to do strange quests. But you know, the only good thing about all this: I have a beautiful face, it's nice to look in the mirror... ha, ha... I'm going crazy! How the hell am I going to survive in this damn world? tring! [System Notification] - [Mission] *Participate in the NOVA Academy entrance exam [Compensation: ??] [Failure: System loss]

However, nothing could have prepared her for the truth that this wasn’t just a marriage. She was just a pawn to win yet another war, a cord to fasten an alliance. Her new husband was a sweet torment, an immortal, god-like bully disguised in an impossibly beautiful human form with no rival. His every gaze felt like a punishment, and his sinful aura tempted her in ways she never expected. This god of lust refused to touch her or accept her as his true wife. Believing that her dignity was lost forever, she resigned herself to her fate, hoping to make a home in the hell she’d been thrown into. But fate, as it often did play, had other plans. ~*~ “Don’t even think about seducing me by licking your lips like that, doe-eye!” He breathed in her ear as he joined her in bed, shirtless, his muscular abdomen rippling with each movement. “I… I’m not doing it on purpose!” she stammered, her breath catching in her chest when he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her body against him. His mouth hovered near her temple, his lips grazing her ear shell. “I’m going to make you forget what happened today.

The King from Another World In the magical kingdom of Aradell, King Eldrin has spent his entire life hiding a secret: despite being a powerful ruler, he has no magic of his own. Born into a world where magic flows through every vein, Eldrin stands as an anomaly. Orphaned at a young age and raised by his grandmother, the aging monarch has long carried the weight of an empire that expects him to be everything his magic cannot allow him to be—until, one day, overwhelmed by the pressures of royal duties, he flees into the wilds of the kingdom. There, on the edge of despair, a chance encounter with a mysterious figure from a rival kingdom sets in motion a chain of events that will change Eldrin’s life forever. As the stranger attacks, a sudden portal opens before Eldrin, thrusting him into a completely unfamiliar world—a modern, bustling city filled with technology and people who know nothing of magic. It's a world where smartphones, traffic, and ordinary life rule. But it's also a world where Zara lives. Zara, a young woman burdened by debt after the death of her father, is struggling to keep her head above water. When she accidentally collides with the bewildered King Eldrin and breaks her phone, she demands compensation. Seeing the stranger’s unfamiliar style and strange behavior, Zara assumes he’s a wealthy person, and in her desperation, she asks for money. Eldrin, having no idea how currency works in this world, offers her a bag of gold. To Zara’s surprise, this gold is not only real but precious. Intrigued by his mysterious nature, and having nowhere else to go, Eldrin ends up staying with Zara. As days pass, their odd partnership grows, with Eldrin providing her gold and Zara helping him navigate the modern world. However, when enemies from his kingdom appear in the city and attack them, they are forced to flee. In a desperate bid to escape, Zara and Eldrin find themselves stumbling through another portal, and this time, they return to Eldrin’s world—the kingdom of Aradell. Zara is awestruck by the grandeur of this magical kingdom, where spells weave through the very fabric of the land, and the King’s castle rises above all else. But their arrival is anything but peaceful. Zara’s kindness in healing Eldrin’s ailing grandmother with an unexpected display of magic reveals a shocking truth: Zara has powers she never knew existed—powers that could be the key to saving the kingdom. As Eldrin’s dormant magic begins to awaken, the King and Zara grow closer, bound by a destiny neither of them anticipated. But not everyone is happy about this newfound connection. Hidden enemies and dark forces plot against the King, and the kingdom itself is on the brink of destruction. As Eldrin and Zara uncover ancient secrets about their powers, they must face threats both magical and mortal. Will Zara’s abilities be enough to change Eldrin’s fate and protect the kingdom? And as their bond deepens, can their love withstand the trials of a world that has just begun to reveal its darkest secrets?

Su Xiaonai accidentally slept with an all-powerful man. Yet it seemed he had someone he loved. Su Xiaonai had no choice but to flee, pregnant with his children. Six years later, Su Xiaonai returned full force with the twins. The scumbags and the homewreckers were no match for her, and she was practically winning at life. Until a certain somebody took advantage of her intoxication and forced her into a corner to say, “How dare you leave me alone after sleeping with me? When will you… compensate me for the last six years? Huh?” Su Xiaonai almost blushed. “You’re not worthy!” But the kids at home chirped, “But mommy, when you were pregnant with us, you said only daddy was most worthy.”

Ahn Ji-Ho, a nineteen year old girl is on a journey to find a new home amidst her world's calamity when she stumbles upon a mysterious and beautiful woman. Zhou Meihua, a beautiful yet inept girl saves Ji-Ho from certain death, capturing her heart in an instant. The two converse, and Ji-Ho is invited to forever stay by her side. Yet, a promise is shattered when the mysterious calamity known as the Decay swallows their personages whole, removing their memory from the face of the ruined Earth. Waking up in a new world beside Mei, Ji-Ho discovers she has gained incredible and unknown power. Ji-Ho finds herself in a completely different world with a beautiful girl she barely knows, one where god-like power is completely feasible. --- A bird perched on a branch whistled a short and quiet tune under the waving wind as Ahn Ji-Ho sat under a tree, holding a smooth grey stone. [Alchemic Exchange has been activated.] The stone in her palm glimmered and then ran away in a flash of bright light, disappearing and leaving a piece of quartz in its place. She set the the quartz down beside her, and watched as another small wound opened up on her wrist, letting her blood flow towards the soil. [Alchemic Compensation has been received.] It seemed that the baseline payment for an exchange was Ji-Ho own body, specifically her blood. She did not yet know if she was able to exchange anything other than that. Ji-Ho glanced over at the items beside her, each sowed from multiple stones, brought to this world with her own blood. A stone shaped like a bird, a ball of cotton, a piece of quartz, and a peridot gemstone sat perfectly still next to her in frozen and obtuse scarcity of time; a painting of strange still-life itself. She had tested the limits of the ability, and had so far found out that she could mold substances, exchange them for something similar, something valuable, or obtain something entirely new. Each exchange brought about different costs, each measured in her own body's resources. By all instances of thought that she had conjured up, she had come to the conclusion that she had been transported to another world - one where such power was possible. However, she felt that now she was farther from home than ever. --- TQoN Art by @Qonnnarts

Liam is the CEO of a giant company in London and one of the wealthiest businessmen in the United Kingdom. He has two wives; Elena, his first wife—a strong, independent, and successful woman in her field. Elena’s Company: An investment firm specializing in luxury real estate and sustainable urban projects. She owns several developments in London and Paris, known for her smart and pragmatic leadership in expanding the European market. Liam’s Company: A massive tech conglomerate focused on artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure. Based in London, it is one of the largest providers of technological solutions to governments and major corporations across Europe. The Major Project that Forced Their Marriage: Project Name: Lunex Global District Concept: A huge redevelopment project transforming an old industrial area in East London into a fully integrated smart city, including financial centers, residential towers, and advanced technological facilities. It is jointly funded by Liam’s tech company and Elena’s real estate firm. Reason for Marriage: The deal was fraught with political and financial risks, and local governments required a stable long-term partnership. The two families decided the best way to secure this alliance was through the marriage of the direct heirs: Elena and Liam. The marriage was a "strategic human alliance" to ensure the project’s success and safeguard their shared interests. Elena and Liam’s marriage was never a love story but a family agreement between two influential dynasties. They married five years ago for reasons of power and influence. A month after their wedding, Liam married Maria—his longtime lover, a stunningly beautiful woman. Since then, Liam has never spent a single day with Elena. Elena lives alone in a lavish mansion in one of London’s upscale suburbs, while he resides with Maria in another estate. He never touched her, never loved her, and spoke to her only with cold business words. Their relationship is nothing more than a stiff contractual agreement. Liam’s family had a tradition that bothered Elena greatly—the monthly family dinner. Tonight was the night for the monthly dinner hosted by Liam’s parents in their grand ancestral home. After finishing her work at the company, Elena headed there. As soon as she entered the luxurious dining room, her eyes fell on the usual scene: Liam sitting next to Maria, his arm lazily draped around her waist, whispering words that made her blush, then turning a cold, unfriendly glance toward Elena. But as always, his mother and father greeted Elena warmly, as if trying to compensate for the coldness that shrouded her marriage to their son. She sat quietly in her assigned seat, lifting her head proudly, hiding everything boiling inside her beneath her composed expression.

Looking at Yan Heng’s handsome face and his eight packs, she realized that the reason that her relatives were bullying her was that she was only one girl. But if she got married, she would be able to stop their plots once and for all. “Let’s get married!” “Okay.” On the night of their marriage, the little rich girl said, “We have to sign a prenup! You don’t have anything, and you’re even renting my house, so if you one day meet anyone you like, we can divorce immediately…” The construction site worker said, “Okay.” The little rich girl then said arrogantly, “After the divorce, we’re then strangers. We’re adults, so it’s not necessary to make it look bad!” Construction site worker, “You think too much!” The little rich girl looked at the eight packs and gulped. “I want to be on top!” The construction site worker gave her small figure a look and said, “We’ll see!” After the man’s identity was revealed, the little rich girl finally knew the truth. “???” The man still used the concrete dust as a disguise. “…” The little rich girl couldn’t stand it anymore. “You liar!!! What happened to the construction site?! You… You’re…” The man looked at his little rich girl pamperingly, “I only have one identity. Your husband!” The little rich girl then said miserably, “If I had known I wouldn’t do the prenup, then I can still have half of your assets after we divorce, ahhhh…” The man couldn’t help but give his little rich girl a kiss. “As long as we don’t divorce, what mine is yours, alright…?” The little rich girl raised her head with tears still in her eyes. “I want to be on top!” He: “…”

Once upon a time, in a land far away, named Oscanda, the territory was subdivided into three realms named Bazova, Arand, and Lanir. The rigidly uncompromising rulers of these lands were from three different subspecies, called vampires, wolf shifters, and humans. The three kingdoms flew in the face of each other over an extremely powerful source of energy, resulting in so many political disaccords. In the end, the energy vanished but the feuds continued. No one on the planet owned the power to ‘solve’ their disputes, thus the issues remained unresolved for a millennium. Hundreds of years later, the new generation still had to compensate for their ancestors’ wrangling with their lives. The monarchs chose to isolate their kingdoms to end the agony. Thousands of years later, a peasant girl unknowingly unleashed the beasts from their restraints and got entangled in the warfare of the strongest! Marked by a regnant vampire lord, imprinted by the flamboyantly handsome werewolf king, engaged to a threatening human crown prince, she became the imperial insignia of Oscanda. When the war raged, she became the expiatory offering! At last, a beast sealed her fate though her heart belonged somewhere else. She had to perforce obey the rules, marry the destined one, and unfold the mysteries surrounding her.
