Rank:Zero

Sera Vane is a sixteen-year-old "Rank Zero," openly labeled the worst rank in a culture that ranks everything in its pursuit of power. In the city of Velatrix, rankings dictate all aspects of life—school placement, social status, even access to clean water or decent housing. For Sera, it's a daily life of invisibility and humiliation at high-status Lunaris High, where walls themselves respond to student rank. She's the one in the gray jacket. The system failure. The punchline. But Sera is not who she seems. She's been suppressing random outbursts of energy since she was a kid—episodes she can't explain, filled with static interference, hot-hot equipment, or machinery that inexplicably turns off when she's around. Her sister Jin has begged her to keep quiet, stay hidden, and stay alive. The last time anyone saw her power manifest, someone died. As Sera drifts through school on a wave of taunts and exclusion, she discovers quiet friendship in Lio Dane—a friendly but seemingly low-ranking student who never once treats her like a ghost. Lio is actually a committed agent of an underground resistance, tasked with protecting her. For Sera isn't merely a statistical anomaly. She's a Sovereign-class Conduit—an ancient, feared source of power who can speed and shape energies flowing around her, including other people's abilities. When a synthetic foe attacks Lunaris High in what should've been a routine drill, the best students die. Spies are mobilized. The defense net crashes. But Sera, unranked and unarmed, steps forward—and reality is remade. Her power explodes to life, driving the foe away and bending reality's laws. For the very first time ever, the system recognizes her. And the system goes nuts. Headmistress Calaine Voss, the architect of the academy's ranking system, sees Sera as a threat and initiates the Strata Protocol—a black-budget program designed to put down renegade powers. But she's too late. Word of worldwide transformation seeded by Sera spreads, and a hidden network of retired Conduits and loyalists is reactivated. Lunch ladies, janitors, medics—those the system has all but forgotten are in line to join her. Through flashbacks, sabotage, and slow-cultivated allegiances, Sera learns the truth of her origins—and its terrible price. The regime murdered the last monarch she is now being asked to kill. The power that rests within her could liberate thousands—or enslave them. As Sera is born into the world, her grip on self slips. Everyone wants her to be something: a prophecy, a weapon, or a queen. But Sera doesn't want to be anyone's fate. She wants a life. A voice. A choice. In the confrontation, she battles Calaine with not vengeance but clarity. Sera addresses the ranking system deception and releases a power flash that disables the scanning infrastructure throughout the city. She refuses to insert another hierarchy there. Instead, she disappears—blending again into the populace, refusing power in an addicted society. But she is not lost. And she is not alone. We observe that at the end of the novel, Sera walks backstreets with her sister and Lio, her glyphs pale but not dead. Power hums in her flesh but no longer governs her. Because her rank is gone. But her legacy has only just begun.

Janitor to CEO: My NSFW System Is Too Op!

Graduating from Oxford, Owen's life shortly after that had been nothing but a preposterous joke and an unbelievable story. Perhaps it was a decline in fate, and a critical one at that. After five years of running around in search of a job, he found himself working as a janitor in a feminism-empowered company that paid quite a decent amount for someone like him. But that could barely make ends meet. He had to partake in several other part-time jobs to repay the debt his father acquired to pay his educational fees before passing away. (...Sell your organs.) (Sorry… I already have a new boyfriend.) As he read the two recently received text messages, he let out a hopeless sigh. [Ding!] [Congrats, you have triggered the NSFW System into Awakening ^_⁠^ Your life story is going to become Legendary!] Following the System's sympathetic voice, Owen's life did indeed become better. [Congrats! Successfully fucked Mitchell Greenwood: CEO of Black in White Group] [Option 1: Become the CEO of Black in White Group.] [Choose other options???] [Ding!] [$10, 000,000 compensation has been deposited into your bank account.] “Shit, it's real? My account limit is barely \$50,000.” In his hopeless moment, Owen was blessed with an unconventional System that could grant him the position of any woman he slept with in their workplace—or receive several compensation options. Rising from a janitor, he pursues the dream of owning several companies under his name to become a global tycoon—while also taking revenge on those who once mocked him along the way.

The Third Week of July

Kaito's world shatters when his girlfriend, Rina, is tragically gunned down on the last day of the third week of July. Consumed by grief and a desperate hope, he dedicates his life to completing Rina's theoretical research on time travel, driven by a mysterious symbol of a trumpet-shaped hose and inexplicably appearing notes that aid his progress. His first journey back in time, to save Rina, ends in horrifying failure, witnessing her death again despite his intervention. Undeterred, a slightly older Kaito tries again, this time working in secret as a janitor to guide his younger self's research, hoping a more refined approach will succeed. This attempt also culminates in Rina's death, with Kaito realizing he might be an unchangeable part of the tragedy. A third, even older Kaito, worn down by repeated failures, returns with a grim new plan: to kill the gunman before he can act. In a tragic twist of fate and a moment of panicked misidentification, he accidentally becomes the one to cause Rina's demise, fulfilling the horrifying bootstrap paradox – he is the very gunman his younger self then kills in rage. Just as this seemingly unbreakable, cruel loop threatens to claim him permanently, a much older version of Kaito intervenes, injecting his dying self with advanced medical technology. This "Architect" Kaito, having experienced countless iterations, has begun a project not to erase the past, but to manage its devastating fallout, subtly guiding other versions of himself and preventing their ultimate destruction. He shares his story with a young, inquisitive boy named Kenji, planting the seeds for a new generation to grapple with the complexities of a fixed, yet perhaps subtly alterable, timeline. "The Third Week of July" is a poignant exploration of grief, obsession, and the crushing weight of inevitability, questioning whether destiny is truly immutable or if, even within a fixed framework, there is still room for human agency to strive for a different, if not perfect, future. ------------- This book is written with AI-assisted tools to help generate sentences and structure paragraphs.

"Soul Crown: Curse Erosion"

When the seventh toll of midnight shuddered through the air, Adam’s knuckles cracked with a sickening pop. He clenched a blood-soaked leather glove between his teeth, watching his irises bleed from amber to feral green in the grimy mirror. This marked his 109th full moon in this alien world—a world where the lycanthropic curse clung to his bones like a parasite, yet still, against all odds, had not devoured the last shreds of his humanity. Three years ago, Adam had been nothing more than a corporate drone in a cubicle, debugging code under fluorescent lights. Everything changed when a subway explosion hurled him through a vortex of flames. He still remembered the surreal moment his hand phased through molten steel, plunging him into a void streaked with violet auroras. When he awoke, he was curled in an iron cage etched with glowing runes, the verdict of his trial echoing in an unfamiliar tongue: “Otherworldly beast—banished to the Evernight Citadel.” The Citadel—a gargantuan fortress suspended above an ocean of clouds—was humanity’s final bulwark against the abyssal horrors below, and a prison for all non-human races. Adam learned to hide the silver wolven markings snaking up his neck beneath scarves, surviving as a black-market peddler in the slums, trading salvaged electronics from his old world. Every full moon, he retreated to a derelict altar in the catacombs’ third layer, chaining himself to a stone sarcophagus. Amid the searing pain of claws rending flesh, visions haunted him: a crown of burning cogs floating at the heart of the cosmos, like a deity’s discarded relic. “That’s the Soul Crown,” rasped One-Eyed Maggie, the fortune-teller, her cigarette smoke curling around Adam’s sketch of the vision. “Legends say it can tear reality itself… but the Grand Inquisitor shattered it into seven fragments three centuries ago. They’re hidden—” Her words died as steam-powered airships roared overhead, searchlights from the Citadel’s enforcers flooding the alley. The first corpse appeared the night Adam infiltrated the Central Library disguised as a janitor. The victim hung from the bronze statue of the God of Knowledge, a dagger of volcanic glass embedded where his heart should have been—a ritual execution reserved for lycanthrope traitors. By dawn, the Evernight Gazette blared headlines: “Wolfkin Terror Attack—Citywide Curfew Enacted.” The true nightmare began on the third full moon. Adam awoke in the catacombs to snapped chains glistening with another’s blood, his fist clutching a shred of fabric stamped with the Inquisition’s sigil. Worse, fractured memories surfaced: a masked man in a rain-lashed clocktower, pressing a shard of light into his chest. “Your veins hum with the Crown’s resonance,” hissed a nocturnal elf assassin materializing from shadows, her cloak embroidered with wisteria patterns that mirrored the auroras of Adam’s transit. “The Inquisition is dissecting every wolfkin alive—and you’re their prime specimen. Unless we claim the other fragments first.”
