In a world reclaimed by a forgotten apocalypse, humanity survives within walled enclaves, besieged by monstrous, crystalline beasts known as Chimeras. The truth of the past—of the technologically advanced "Ancients" and their sudden downfall—is a lost and forbidden history. The key to survival lies in the Aethel Frame, a latent spiritual and biological blueprint within every human. When awakened, it allows a user to absorb the "Soul Echoes" of defeated Chimeras, integrating their powers and traits. True mastery, however, comes not from collecting Echoes, but from synthesizing them into new, unique abilities. Follow a young protagonist on his journey from a confused survivor to a legendary warrior. As he awakens his own Aethel Frame, he will uncover the dark secrets of the Ancients' legacy and learn that the Chimeras are not just monsters, but a key to humanity's future. It is a path of strategic evolution and brutal combat, where understanding the past is the only way to forge a new future and prevent history from repeating its mistakes.

She was chosen. In a story that blurs the line between magical realism and fantasy, follow Lilith as she navigates this strange employment, questions what’s real, and discovers that sometimes the path to independence leads straight into the weird and wonderful.

And from the fringes of this chaos, a legend stirs. The Echo Shadows—black-eyed warriors, neither fully human nor beast—drift like phantoms between realms. They fight not for throne or homeland, but for a forgotten oath: the eradication of all monsters.

Yet when one among them uncovers the buried truth of the forsaken southern wastes, everything shifts. Consumed by an irrepressible curiosity and gnawing doubt, he dares to violate the Echo Shadows’ sacred code. Casting aside his vow of silence, he embarks toward the other world—the one lost to time’s labyrinth, shrouded in myth, and erased from all maps.

When down-on-her-luck café barista Yuna Han accidentally spills an iced Americano on a disguised K-pop idol, she has no idea her life is about to become a viral headline. The idol? None other than J-Min, the infamously cold (and unfairly hot) member of global sensation boy group HWAON.

In exchange, her student debt is wiped and her struggling café gets a major PR boost. There's just one problem: Yuna can't stand arrogant celebrities. And J-Min has zero interest in dating...until he starts falling for the only girl who treats him like a regular human. Copyright-Cristina 2025 All rights reserved.

When the world ended, Gareth Hargrove wasn’t taken. Everyone else—his wife, his children, his friends—were Integrated. Threaded into a System that swallowed humanity in a single heartbeat. But the code rejected Gareth. Now alone in a glitched, biomechanical wasteland the System calls Nullspace, he’s hunted by broken echoes of the people he loves, haunted by the memory of their last moments, and followed by the only companion the System failed to overwrite: a cat-shaped glitch called Patch. In Place of Echoes is a dark LitRPG/System Apocalypse story blending glitch horror, psychological survival, and emergent system mechanics. It’s about memory, recursion, and what it means to matter in a world that erased you. No chosen ones. No cheat skills. Just a broken man, a broken world, and a System that wants him corrected.

"Block him." "He's technically still my boss." "Then block him with dignity." The call ended again. And then started again. I let out a sound somewhere between a growl and a sob, then finally answered with the enthusiasm of a snail crawling through salt. "Yes, Mr. Walton?" "Have you changed your mind yet?" I collapsed onto the towel and gazed at the sky as though it might consume me entirely if I pleaded sweetly enough. "Do you ever take a break?" I asked, shielding my eyes with one hand. "You're avoiding the question." "Because it's a dumb question." He exhaled, the sound sharp and irritated even over phone. "It's not a dumb question. It's a business offer." "It's a weird offer-one that I already said no to." There was a brief pause, and I could practically hear him clenching his jaw through the speaker. "You are acting unreasonably." " Unreasonable?" I sat up. "I'm not the one drafting fake girlfriend contracts like it's a normal Tuesday." "Isabella-" "Certainly not, Mr. Walton." I mimicked his tone perfectly. "I told you I'm not doing it. You need to find someone else to play pretend with." SYNOPSIS Isabella Miller thought saying no to her boss’s fake dating offer was the end of the story.

Adrien Walton is calm, calculating—and he's just pulled every string to corner Isabella into the perfect position. Now she’s stuck choosing between pride and survival. So she agrees to his offer: be his fake girlfriend. No feelings attached. No drama. Just business. Or so she thought. "Conference Room B. Fifteen minutes," he said, passing by without a glance. The folder he pushed across the table landed with a thud. I opened it. The contract. All of it. --- Enemies to lovers? Check. Slow burn? Hmmnyea. Banter so sharp it might file your nails? Yes. Delicious workplace tension? Of course. Tension that could melt steel?Absolutely. Smut?? Wanna find out? Welcome to corporate romance warfare. There’s no escaping this contract.

Kartikey, an ordinary Indian man working a quiet IT job in Seoul, never asked for much — a steady paycheck, some instant ramen, and maybe a call from home now and then. Romance? Not on his radar. Especially not in a city where he’s more invisible than foreign. That is, until a blind date app matches him with Nancy — a woman who radiates elegance, mystery, and the kind of confidence that could shatter egos. What Kartikey doesn’t know? Nancy is the CEO and president of LUXENOVA, one of the world’s most powerful AI tech empires. She has secrets. He has no clue. And the world she lives in? It’s not one you enter casually. But something about Kartikey’s raw honesty and quiet humor pulls her in. And something about her silence and sharp eyes makes him wonder… Who is this woman, really? This is a story about the unexpected connections between two people from entirely different worlds. It’s about culture, class, identity — and finding someone who sees you, not your résumé.

In a world where cities float above the earth and ancient beasts roam the land, truth has long since been buried beneath the clouds… Seventeen-year-old Aryan has lived his entire life in a cursed land city — a crumbling outpost surrounded by monsters with fangs like swords and demons with human faces. His mother, a low-tier Light wielder, died from a mysterious illness when he was seven. His father? Vanished in a classified government mission years earlier, investigating the very secrets the world refuses to speak of — the beasts, the demons… and the floating cities themselves. No one knows Aryan exists — not the ruling government, not the elite nobles who live high above in shining cities suspended 1000 feet in the sky, not even the assassin guilds and rebel warlords fighting for scraps of power on the surface. But Aryan is about to shatter their silence. Hidden within this fractured world lies a shattered ancient artifact — a mysterious cube once powerful enough to hold the balance between land, sky, and beyond. Split into four fragments, each held in secret corners of the world — from the heavenly Sky Government cities to the beast-infested wilds — its true purpose is unknown… but it calls to Aryan. As he journeys across deadly lands aboard flying warships, hunted by assassins, tracked by beasts, and haunted by fragments of his parents’ forgotten legacies, Aryan begins to uncover a terrifying truth: The cities were never meant to float... The beasts were never meant to exist... And he was never meant to survive. But fate doesn’t care what the world intended. Aryan is coming — and he’s not just looking for answers. He’s looking to break the sky open.

As the Arctic ice caps crumble under catastrophic global warming, the ancient "Pandora Virus" — buried for millennia — unleashes hell on Earth. Chen Mo, a history student in a drowsy lecture hall, watches civilization collapse into blood-soaked chaos: the infected rise as ravenous horrors, cities become graveyards, and humanity’s darkest instincts erupt in the ruins. Armed with a fire axe, Chen Mo battles through his zombified campus with medical prodigy Lin Wei, campus beauty Su Qing, and other survivors. Betrayal and sacrifice shatter their fragile sanctuary, forcing Chen Mo on a desperate quest to find his family. In a warlord-controlled bunker, he discovers his parents died protecting the weak in a mutant-infested quarantine zone. Inheriting their resolve, Chen Mo transforms from survivor to guardian, forging the bunker into a beacon of hope called "New Haven." But its light attracts the genocidal cult "The Purifiers," igniting holy war. To reach humanity’s last stronghold — the subterranean fortress "Kunlun Base" — Chen Mo leads an elite squad across the wasteland. Through sand-choked ruins, slaver pits, and the Purifiers’ mobile fortresses, they recruit allies: a survivalist hunter, a mechanic duo, and "Shadow," a wanderer marked by secrets. Each victory comes at a cost. Within Kunlun’s ordered utopia, Chen Mo uncovers deadlier threats: factional power struggles, unethical virus-weapon experiments, and the cult’s "Prophet" who commands the infected. When intel reveals Pandora’s origin lies in an Arctic ice vault, Chen Mo launches a suicidal expedition. In the frozen lab ruins, he confronts the Prophet — a virus-human hybrid — and sacrifices comrades to destroy the hive. The "Primordial Strain" he retrieves could be humanity’s cure... or ultimate doom. As Kunlun’s leadership fractures and New Haven simmers with discord, a new power emerges from the West: the technocratic dystopia "Eden." The long night endures. Every echo of human survival etches a new epoch in the darkness.
