Kept Man Meaning

Riz is a fresh graduate who has been job hunting for a year. In terms of talent, he has no talent. Always a mediocre type of person. The only good point he has is that he is a hardworking person. After so many failed interviews, he starts to get dispirited. However, as he does not so easily give in to that feeling, he resolves to try his luck in the last interview he has. Indeed, it is his last interview. An accident occurs on his way there. When he opens his eyes, he is in the middle of the forest, tattered clothes with blood on it. "Th-this...", Riz was shocked as he found his body smaller than it should be. It didn't take him too much time to understand everything that happened. He becomes the youngest son of a count. Finding himself in the backward world, he who has no ambition previously is in a dilemma. At first, he just wants to live quietly and enjoy the richness and privilege as a noble. But then circumstances push him in a different direction. One event led to another, now he finds himself at the top of power.

“Attention, Lost Souls.” In that moment his entire life was turned around.

In the mystical land of Drakastradorn, where magic thrives, countless races coexist—some friendly, some neutral, and others hostile. Among them is a powerful faction known as The Above Order, ruled by the tyrannical Queen Marafyre the Absolute and governed by the elite Order of the Crimsons. Standing in defiance against their oppressive rule is the Rebel Alliance of Drakastradorn. Amid this turmoil, a man named Shotaro—Mugiwara Shotaro—awakens in a dense jungle, completely naked and with no memory of how he arrived. He knows he is from Earth, yet his past is a blur. Was he transported by a truck? A train? A summoning ritual? He has no answers. As he struggles to understand his fate, Shotaro encounters and befriends an elf ranger. However, his troubles only deepen when he becomes cursed by a sinister black katana that relentlessly follows him. The blade burdens him with a fate worse than death, bringing relentless misfortune and eerie whispers that echo in his mind. These voices speak of salvation, urging him to keep moving forward… but to what end? Shotaro: Journey of a Hero is a dark, action-packed, R-rated tale of resilience and survival. While embracing the familiar essence of the isekai genre, it takes a grittier, more intense approach, redefining what it means to be a hero in an unforgiving world.

They call him The Garbage Man. A name that sounds like a joke—until you realize what it means. He doesn’t clean filth. He doesn’t fix what’s broken. He removes what shouldn’t exist. No hesitation. No morality. If a world spirals beyond reason, if a being grows too absolute—he is sent to erase it. Not by choice. Not by fate. By The Workshop. It watches the multiverse. It does not create. It does not destroy. It decides. In a world where power decides everything, he walks alone. No cause. No loyalty. No chains. Just an unshakable will and the resolve to carve his path—no matter the cost. If you’ve heard his name, it’s already too late.

Jiah Mi was all alone after escaping an abusive household. At the beginning of the zombie apocalypse, she saw her parents die, eaten by her zombie brother. She ran away to the scariest, most abandoned street in a haunted neighborhood named Hukon, driven by a desire for a comfortable life. While also being all alone in a ghost hotel, she decided to write novels, but little did she know how much it would change her life by meeting the male lead from her novel. ML: -"Jiah Mi, why are you playing with my feelings? I love you!" The clingy male lead looked like an abandoned crying puppy, pouting lips. Jiah Mi: -"I don't play it. It's a boring game. Now, go away." She said with a calm, cold face, avoiding him. ML: -"Do you know I hate reading, but I love reading your novels?" The male lead didn't care that she didn't want to hear him and kept bothering her, but she did like being complimented for her author work. After all, it made her a little happy every time someone said she was a good writer. ML: -"I like the main character. He is handsome." Jiah Mi: -"......" ML: -"But I don't like the female lead." Jiah Mi: -"The male lead does." She wrote her character to love the female lead from love at first sight. ML: -"That's not true. I love the author." Jiah Mi: -"....." The male lead laughed, watching the author's blushing red face and red hands, embarrassed, looking away, mad while she was trying to hold her temper. (Why is he saying stuff like this so casually?) (Did I write him to be a player?) But the male lead only had his eyes on her and confessed his feelings to the author all the time. Jiah Mi: -"God, please help me!"
