Camping Life

Camping with my older sister in the Nightmare world.

When humanity is suddenly thrown into the terrifying depths of the Nightmare World, every person awakens with a System and a personal Camp—each a fragile sanctuary in a world that grows more dangerous with every passing day. Every person… except Tristan. Alone among billions, Tristan wakes up without a System. No stats. No interface. No guidance. Or so it seems. Instead, he discovers something even more bizarre—an ability called Enhancement. By simply touching an object and thinking the word "Enhance," Tristan can upgrade it beyond its natural limits. Weapons sharpen into legendary tools of destruction. Trash transforms into treasure. Sometimes, strange and unexpected bonuses appear. And the kicker? A 100% Loot Drop Rate. Everything he kills drops all its rewards—no exceptions. It sounds overpowered. It is overpowered. But the Nightmare World doesn’t play fair. Twisted creatures stalk the shadows. Sanity slips with every hour. And death is not only common—it’s expected. Thankfully, Tristan isn’t facing it alone. His older sister, Emma, is a powerful System user—and an even scarier bro-con. She's obsessive, overprotective, and might be just a little too excited about murdering monsters in her brother’s name. Together, the two siblings begin building their Camp, combining Emma’s System with Tristan’s strange powers to create a base that grows more terrifyingly advanced by the day. But questions linger in the dark. Why didn’t Tristan receive a System like everyone else? What is the true origin of his Enhancement ability? And what lies at the heart of the Nightmare World? --- [Note: Yes, Emma is that kind of big sister. And no, Tristan’s missing System isn’t just for plot drama. There is a reason—and when it hits i Promise it's a Plot Twist.]

Massé Life

I used to be disenchanted of my own hands. Not in some weird psychological way—though maybe it was psychological, who knows. I mean literally afraid that my hands would betray me at the worst possible moment. Which they did. Constantly. Job interviews, presentations, first dates. Anytime people were watching and waiting for me to perform, my fingers would go numb and my brain would just... shut off. Like someone pulled the power cord. I called it ATSM—Anxiety That Stiffens Muscles. Stupid name, but I'm a programmer. I like labeling things, even when I can't fix them. The worst part? It killed my one real passion. I used to love billiards. Was actually decent at it, back in college. But after... well, after something happened that I don't really want to get into right now, I couldn't hold a cue stick without falling apart. So I did what any rational person would do: I gave up. Got a safe job, worked long hours, convinced myself I didn't need hobbies anyway. That plan worked great for about fifteen years. Then I made the mistake of running my mouth on TikTok, challenging the Queen of Nine-Ball to a match. Because apparently when you're having a midlife crisis, the smart move is to embarrass yourself in front of the best billiards player in Southeast Asia. This plot is about what happened after that. It's about meeting people who refused to let me quit, learning to fail in public without dying, and discovering that sometimes the only way forward is to go back and face the thing that broke you in the first place. It's also about billiards, obviously. But mostly it's about being brave enough to suck at something you love, in front of people who matter.
