Westbridge University was supposed to be her escape, a place where she could disappear, blend into the background, and finally breathe. But then he showed up.

And for the first time, silence wasn’t her only option. But the past doesn’t let go so easily. Secrets don’t stay buried forever. And running… running was never the same as being free.

All Dave Parson wanted to do was leave an angry one-star review for Life.exe. You know, like a normal person. Instead, he accidentally triggered a universal debugging protocol and became the world's first (and extremely reluctant) reality QA tester. Now the universe is taking his feedback way too seriously. Physics gets "rebalanced" every other Tuesday. Cities rearrange themselves overnight to fix "user experience issues." And somewhere, a cosmic dev team is probably adding "optimization of human existence" to their sprint backlog. Armed with nothing but patch notes that appear in his dreams and help from a suspiciously glitchy tech support agent, Dave needs to figure out how to revoke his universal admin privileges before his next cranky review accidentally turns the solar system into a 404 error. Maybe he should have just downloaded a meditation app instead. The One Star Review That Nearly Ended The World - because sometimes the customer isn't just right, they're catastrophically right. (No developers were harmed in the making of this universe. Yet.)

I Want a Peaceful Life King Allen, the revered ruler of the biggest empire of his world, met a tragic end when his own adopted brother, jack, betrayed and assassinated him. As his life faded, despair filled his heart—not from death itself, but from the bitter sting of betrayal by the one he had once called family. However, fate had other plans. In the depths of the void, the celestial goddess Aria appeared before him. She revealed that his world faced an even greater calamity—the return of the Twelve Fallen Demonic Angels, beings of immense power who once waged war against the heavens. Their resurrection would plunge the world into chaos, and only Allen possessed the strength and wisdom to stop them. Goddess Aria offered him a second chance—not as King Allen, but as Sion Ragnar, the eldest son of Duke John Ragnar of the Persia Dukedom, a noble house in the Clover Kingdom. Accepting his fate, Allen's soul merged with Sion’s body, awakening in a younger form with fragmented memories of his past life. Determined to prevent history from repeating itself, Sion resolves to live a peaceful life, free from the burdens of kingship. Yet, destiny refuses to let him rest. As the demonic angels stir, hidden truths about his new identity emerge. His noble lineage, magical abilities, and past experiences make him a key figure in the battle against the darkness. Torn between his desire for peace and his duty to protect the world, Sion must navigate treacherous political schemes, uncover the secrets of the fallen angels, and forge alliances with powerful warriors. Will he embrace his destiny as the world’s savior, or will he carve a new path where he can finally find the peace he so desperately seeks?
