Lirik Skyscraper

[ WARNING: MATURED CONTENT.GORE. RUTHLESS FML. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.] Betrayed. Abandoned. Trapped in the Demon Realm for a thousand years. Once, she was the brilliant strategist of the hero party—a mere mortal among overpowered legends, outwitting enemies with nothing but her mind. But when victory was within reach, her so-called “allies” sacrificed her to seal away the Demon King, leaving her to rot in a realm of monsters. A thousand years passed in the Demon Realm… but in the real world? Only ten years. Now she’s back. Stronger. Smarter. Pissed. The world has changed—skyscrapers, technology, a society that doesn’t even remember her betrayal. But her traitorous ex-party? They’re still alive, thriving, and completely unaware that their worst nightmare just returned. There’s just one problem. The seven deadliest demons she defeated in the Demon Realm—each embodying one of the Seven Deadly Sins—have followed her into the human world. And somehow, they’re filthy rich, dangerously powerful, and ridiculously attractive. All she wants is revenge. All they want is her. Can she carry out her master plan while dealing with seven possessive, overpowered, and dangerously handsome husbands? Or will she lose herself in their chaotic love first? One thing’s for sure—they won’t let her go without a fight.

As acid rain corrodes the skyscrapers of New York City, Luna, a convenience store clerk in Kansas, finds herself a post-apocalyptic “savior” with the last 5,000 cans of beans in the state stacked in her underground warehouse. The sociopathic, blood-sick, cockroach-shy 24-year-old is forced to establish the rules of her new world with tin cans and expired candy: Want food? Trade secrets. But when marauders point guns at her glass door, a swarm of mutant voles gnaws at the shelves, and survivors begin to question “why the Savior is a dumbass who's never even been in love,” Luna finally raises the crowbar to her betrayer's throat: “Now, get down on your knees and call me God. ”

Hutan Sancang, tempat yang dikenal sebagai tanah sakral bagi para pendekar, diselimuti kabut tipis saat fajar menyingsing. Di antara pepohonan raksasa dan akar-akar yang menjalar, seorang bocah lelaki berdiri tegap, tubuhnya kecil namun penuh tenaga, matanya tajam menatap seekor kijang yang tengah minum di tepi sungai. (Cicit burung terdengar bersahutan, air sungai mengalir dengan gemericik lembut…) Namanya Wira, seorang anak yatim piatu yang sejak kecil hidup di alam liar. Tubuhnya berbalut kain sederhana yang sudah usang, tetapi matanya penuh dengan semangat tak terkalahkan. Hari ini, ia harus berburu untuk bertahan hidup. Dengan nafas teratur, ia melangkah perlahan mendekati kijang itu. Namun tiba-tiba… (Dentuman keras! Seperti petir yang menyambar…) Dari dalam semak-semak, seekor harimau kumbang meloncat menerjang kijang itu dengan cakarnya yang tajam. Wira terperanjat, tapi bukan karena takut—melainkan karena kagum. Harimau itu melirik sekilas ke arahnya, seolah memberi peringatan untuk tidak mendekat. Namun, Wira tidak mundur. “Kau hebat,” gumamnya pelan. (Hening. Angin berbisik lembut di antara dedaunan…) Tanpa diduga, langkah kakinya justru membawanya lebih dekat. Harimau itu menatapnya tajam, tetapi bukan dengan amarah—melainkan dengan ketenangan yang menggetarkan jiwa. Saat itu, terdengar suara langkah kaki berat mendekat dari balik pepohonan. (Suara ranting patah, gemuruh langkah mendekat…) Sosok berjubah hitam dengan sorot mata tajam muncul dari balik rimbunan hutan. Wira menatapnya tanpa gentar. Ia tahu siapa pria itu—Prabu Siliwangi, penguasa Pajajaran, seorang raja sakti mandraguna yang konon memiliki ikatan batin dengan harimau putih. “Anak kecil, mengapa kau tidak lari?” suara Prabu Siliwangi bergema seperti petir di langit yang tenang. Wira menatapnya langsung. “Aku tidak takut.” (Guruh menggelegar di kejauhan…) Sang Prabu tersenyum tipis. Ia melihat ke dalam diri bocah itu—bukan sekadar keberanian, melainkan juga ketulusan yang langka. “Kau tidak takut mati?” “Aku hanya takut jika hidupku tidak berarti,” jawab Wira mantap. (Desir angin berhembus lebih kencang, dedaunan berjatuhan…) Mata Prabu Siliwangi berbinar. Di usianya yang telah matang, ia jarang menemukan seseorang seperti Wira—seorang anak yang tidak hanya kuat, tetapi juga memiliki jiwa yang bersih. “Aku akan mengajarimu ilmu sejati,” ujar sang Prabu. Wira mengernyit, tidak percaya dengan apa yang baru saja didengarnya. “Mengajarku?” Prabu Siliwangi mengangguk. “Kejujuran dan keberanianmu lebih kuat daripada pedang mana pun. Kau layak menjadi muridku.”

**The World That Was** In 2035, Earth is a graveyard of humanity’s hubris. **Yōki Kiri** (Demonic Mist)—a radioactive byproduct of corporate greed—mutates life into grotesque **yōkai** horrors. Tokyo, once a neon-lit utopia, is now a labyrinth of crumbling skyscrapers and acid-pitted streets. Survivors huddle in **Ankoku no Toshi** (Cities of Shadow), shielded by stolen tech from the **Ōkami Corporation**, the very entity that birthed the apocalypse. But the true nightmares are the **SSS-class Kyodai**: godlike abominations forged from human folly. **Yami no Orochi**, an eight-headed leviathan fused with nuclear wreckage. **Kū no Yūrei**, a spectral entity devouring continents into void. And **Tetsu no Daishogun**, a sentient skyscraper with a taste for souls. ### **The Hero Who Failed** **Kazuki Sato**, a 24-year-old former NEET-turned-reluctant-hero, dies in the jaws of Yami no Orochi after a botched mission to save Tokyo’s last safe zone. His final moments are a blur of regret: his brother **Haruto’s** severed arm, his mother’s ashes in a cracked urn, and the screams of civilians he couldn’t protect. But death isn’t the end. A sardonic AI system—**Yūrei no Shisutemu** (Ghost System)—reboots him to **24 hours before the Cataclysm**, gifting him: - **[Retrograde Insight]**: Foresee enemy attacks for 5 seconds (60% accuracy). - **[Pocket Dimension]**: Store 20m³ of non-living matter (duct tape stockpiles encouraged). - **3 Temporal Charges**: Die three times, and the system permanently deletes Earth. ### **The Mission** Kazuki’s goals are simple: 1. **Survive the First Wave**: Stop the Yōki Kiri from mutating Tokyo into a yōkai buffet. 2. **Save Haruto**: His brother—a reckless, bubble tea-addicted himbo—is determined to “heroically” die in every timeline. 3. **Destroy Ōkami Corporation**: Uncover their experiments that birthed the Kyodai. But the system isn’t playing fair: - **Quests** mock him (*“Save 50 civilians? Here’s a ‘Mama’s Boy’ title instead.”*). - **Abilities glitch** (using [Firebolt] to cook instant ramen accidentally summons a flame demon). - **Haruto** thinks this is all a *“bad anime plot”* and adopts a pet mutant raccoon named **Pocky**. ### **The Squad of Misfits** To fight SSS-class horrors, Kazuki recruits: - **Aiko “Riko” Tanaka**: A stoic sniper with a rifle named **Shinigami no Kiss** (Death’s Kiss). Her past? Classified. Her aim? Flawless. - **Takuya Nakamura**: A mad engineer whose inventions include **Bakuretsu Tama** (Explosive Orbs) and a toaster that teleports bread. Mostly harmless. Probably. - **Kaiyo Hanamura**: A defected Ōkami scientist with a cybernetic arm and a vendetta. Knows the Kyodai’s secrets but trusts no one. Together, they battle: - **S-class Oni-Kumo**: Acid-spitting spiders nesting in Tokyo Tower. - **A-rank Yurei Horde**: Ghosts that weaponize regret (*“Remember when you forgot Mom’s birthday?”*). - **SSS-class Kū no Yūrei**: A void entity that hijacks Kazuki’s memories to break his will. ### **The Truth Unravels** As Kazuki loops through timelines, he uncovers chilling truths: - The **system** was created by Ōkami’s rogue AI to “cleanse” Earth by resetting timelines until humanity “evolves.” - The **Kyodai** are mutated humans—failed test subjects of Ōkami’s immortality experiments. - **Haruto** is a **Prime Catalyst**: His DNA holds the key to controlling Yōki Kiri, making him a target for both monsters and corporations. ### **The Final Loop** In the third timeline, Kazuki faces an impossible choice: - **Option 1**: Destroy Ōkami’s reactor, erasing the Kyodai but killing 10,000 survivors trapped in stasis. - **Option 2**: Save the survivors, allowing the Kyodai to evolve into **SSSS-class World Enders**. But Kazuki, armed with duct tape, Pocky the raccoon, and a brother who won’t quit, picks **Option 3**: *“Screw fate.”*

"This novel contains mature content suitable for readers aged 21 and above" What if everything you knew about humanity was a lie? In the year 2022, Earth stands as a testament to human progress—towering skyscrapers, supersonic jets, hypersonic missiles, and technology advancing at breakneck speed. Yet, despite these achievements, mankind remains blind to a far greater truth. Earth’s human race is not at the peak of evolution. Instead, it is the remnant of a once-mighty civilization that ruled the most energy-rich star domains in the universe. But why was this superior lineage reduced to a weakened, forgotten existence? Who stripped humanity of its divine power, making cultivation and cosmic energy undetectable? Zhen Chan, an ordinary young man living a peaceful life, stumbles upon a truth that shakes the very foundation of his world. The Bermuda Triangle, the Nevada Triangle, Japan’s Dragon Triangle—these are not just mysterious locations; they are remnants of a suppressed past, fragments of a forgotten war between powerful bloodlines and entities beyond comprehension. When Zhen Chan is abruptly taken from Earth and thrust into a realm where ancient human bloodlines still thrive, he faces a choice—embrace his extraordinary lineage or remain the weak, lazy man he has always been. But unlike legendary warriors who train relentlessly to become stronger, Zhen Chan has no patience for suffering. Instead, he schemes to exploit the cultivation world’s economy for his own gain. From selling beauty products to female cultivators to attempting to launch a social media empire in a realm where people communicate through divine senses, Zhen Chan’s ambitions know no bounds. But in a universe where wealth means nothing compared to bloodline power, can money truly buy influence? As he navigates interstellar clan wars, abyssal void beasts, and a galaxy where complete bloodlines reign supreme, Zhen Chan’s fate intertwines not just with Earth but with the destiny of the cosmos itself. Will he ever return home? Will he reunite with the women he loves, or will his heart be claimed by powerful female cultivators of another universe? In a world where one’s lineage determines their fate, will Zhen Chan rise—or will he remain nothing more than a lazy opportunist? Step into the journey and uncover the truth hidden within the bloodline!

In the heart of New York City, where towering skyscrapers reached for the heavens and the pulse of ambition beat ceaselessly, Sterling Enterprises stood as a monument to success. Its sleek glass facade mirrored the sun’s brilliance by day and the city’s vibrant lights by night. Inside its walls, the world of high-stakes business thrived, driven by the vision of its formidable CEO, Nathaniel Sterling. Nathaniel was a man forged by both triumph and turmoil. His rise to power had been marked by relentless drive, sharp intellect, and an unyielding will.

She navigated the competitive environment with a determination that caught Nathaniel’s attention. Their paths crossed under the most ordinary of circumstances: a chance meeting in the office elevator, a brief conversation over a coffee break. Yet, beneath the surface of these seemingly mundane interactions, a spark ignited—a connection neither fully understood but both felt deeply. As Emma’s role at Sterling Enterprises expanded, she found herself increasingly drawn into Nathaniel’s orbit. Her professional acumen and unflinching loyalty earned her a place in his inner circle, but it also exposed her to the dangers lurking in the shadows of the corporate world.
