Jakarta, the city that never sleeps, is suddenly engulfed in an eerie silence. On a night darker than usual, twelve teenagers—Aisyah, Delisha, Gathan, Jasmine, Abib, Arka, Nafisah, Nizam, Azzam, Queensha, Seno, and Sagena—sense that something is terribly wrong. Strange disturbances unfold around them: phone signals vanish, power flickers out, distant echoes of unknown sounds fill the air, and massive shadows move through the now-deserted city. Computer screens flicker with unsettling images, news broadcasts abruptly cut off with ominous warnings, and a slow, deliberate knocking resonates at their doors. All signs point to one thing—this is no ordinary night. Jakarta has changed, and they must brace themselves for something far more terrifying than they ever imagined.

After losing her job, Wan Qian unexpectedly inherits the estate of an distant great-uncle—a remote countryside farm. She originally thought she could enjoy a leisurely rural life, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. However, she soon discovers that the farm is unbelievably strange—animals on the farm produce crops, whispers rustle from the wardrobe at midnight, and what flows from the faucet is not clear water but thick red liquid… Even more absurd, interns who come to work always mysteriously "resign," leaving only a calm and composed butler who hands her a new labor contract with a smile every day. Faced with all this, Wan Qian optimistically rolls up her sleeves: "Alright then, running a farm isn't easy. I have to find a way to turn a profit." So, using outrageous workplace logic and farm management experience, she tames an eldritch god into a guard dog, hires a midnight butcher as a chef, and even enlists a faceless girl as an accountant… While others tremble in fear, she leisurely patrols the farmland: "No slacking off! If performance targets aren't met, your wages will be docked." Thus, a farm where "humans and ghosts and monsters" beings coexist is officially open for business! —Horror? Not at all. With the right job assignments, every ghost and monster can be a model corporate worker!

With his new identity, August finds himself burdened with debt and responsible for his beloved younger sister, Sophia. Desperate to change their fate, August immerses himself in Enders Light, a cutting-edge VRMMORPG that blurs the line between virtual and reality. In this fantastical game world, players can bring specific items that meet certain requirements into the real world and even gain a fraction of their in-game abilities and strength.

In the autumn of 1954, August Wintern arrives at St. Alaric’s School for Boys as a late transfer, burdened by the weight of a past he’d rather forget. Quiet and observant, he navigates the halls of the academy with a reserved demeanor, finding solace in literature and the quiet corners of the library. But even books can’t shield him from the unfamiliar world he’s been thrust into. James Caldwell, by contrast, is effortless in his defiance. With a sharp wit and a reputation for bending the rules, he commands attention without trying. He is everything August is not—easygoing, reckless, untouchable. When they are unexpectedly paired for a classical literature project, their differences seem endless. James’s disregard clashes with August’s meticulous nature, their conversations charged with thinly veiled contempt. But when August stumbles upon a book filled with cryptic letters—letters that reference events that should be impossible—what began as a reluctant partnership shifts into something far more complicated. As they attempt to decipher the mystery buried within ink-stained pages, the lines between rivalry and understanding blur. And in the quiet spaces between arguments and unspoken words, August begins to wonder: is James truly as untouchable as he seems? Or is he running from something, too?

A Name No One Remembers On the last day of summer break, third-year student Sano Rika stood alone on the school rooftop, watching the sunset. That same night, she jumped. When classes resumed, no one spoke about her. The teachers ignored the empty seat by the window. The students moved on as if she had never existed. But I remember her. I remember the way she looked at me that evening, the way her cold fingers brushed against my arm. And now, I can still hear her voice. I wake up with the taste of blood in my mouth. Shadows stretch and whisper in my room at night. And in my dreams, Rika stands on the rooftop, calling my name. No one else remembers her. But something tells me that’s exactly what she wanted. Or maybe—what she needed.

August Harlow was a pretty mediocre player of the 2nd best guild, Burning Ambition, which focused on the very popular VRMMORPG Akathra: Expeditions. The main reasons for that was the fact that the only "burning ambition" August had was to explore. He did like the grind of levels and mobs, but the main reason he did it was to be able to access higher level areas to hunt for lore. Yep that's right August was mainly a lore hunter. Well that was before he was betrayed by his guild when he got a mythic item. His guild killed him repeatedly till he dropped the item and, just to pour salt on his wounds, back to level 1. The real salt was that when he left the game pod, there were people waiting for him, to "silence" him. But fate was a kind mistress because when August closed his eyes for the last time, he also opened them for the 119217600th time. August then swore to himself that this time was going to be different, that he was not going to join a guild just to suffer under the elites, He’d much rather just peacefully collect lore, but then again plans never seem to go exactly to the letter. This is the Story of August The Lorewalker. This is my first novel so I'd like some constructive criticism from you all
