In the Azure Phoenix Realm, Xu Qi, a normal telemarketer on Earth, found himself transmigrated into a body with a similar name as him. However, he found out that he had nothing of the usual golden finger or system that he often read in webnovels.

The interstellar people had never witnessed such a strange and culturally rich dreamscape. For a moment, the entire interstellar network erupted in a frenzy of excitement.

In the desolate mountains of the Azure Peaks, nestled amidst a cacophony of howling winds and cascading waterfalls, resided the humble village of Qingyun. Here, amidst the rustic charm of thatched roofs and earthen paths, lived a young boy named Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan, however, was no ordinary villager. He was a weakling, a frail sapling amidst a forest of towering oaks. While other children his age were already grappling with rudimentary martial arts, Lin Xuan struggled to even lift a wooden training dummy. His peers, naturally, viewed him with disdain, their laughter echoing through the crisp mountain air. One day, while tending to his ailing mother, a peculiar glow emanated from an ancient, moss-covered jade pendant that had been passed down through his family for generations. The pendant, awakened by a surge of unseen energy, latched onto Lin Xuan's weak meridian, a jolt of warmth coursing through his veins. Thus began Lin Xuan's extraordinary journey. The pendant, a sentient artifact dubbed the "System of Ascension," bestowed upon him a unique path to power. It demanded relentless dedication, guiding him through a rigorous regime of physical training, medicinal cultivation, and the relentless pursuit of rare herbs and beasts.

In the year 1995, a crystalline meteor hurtled towards Earth and crashed in the forests of Aomori, spreading clouds of mysterious dust upon its impact. These dust clouds contain a mysterious substance that turns children and teenagers alike into Espers, human beings gifted with supernatural powers known as Sigils. Some have telekinetic powers, others can control elemental properties and some of them have mind-control powers. As time passes, Espers faces prejudice from normal people due to their powers, fearing that they might replace them. Some of them even think that Espers must be eradicated. There are even people who want to capture Espers and exploit their Sigils. On that day, an organization dedicated to researching and defending these supernatural youngsters known as Lazuline was formed. They even built a paradise for them known as Azure City, an artificial island located on the temperate waters of Sagami Bay, Japan. However, Azure City was just a temporary solution to the Espers. Eldritch beings known as Deviants invaded the city and the shadow of a mysterious consortium loomed upon its supernatural inhabitants, and they must fight back for their rights to live.

70 years ago, the game descended into reality. Beasts rampaged, and a catastrophic plague of monsters spread across the land. To resist the invasion of these ferocious creatures, everyone was forced to choose a profession, undergo a career transformation, and level up relentlessly to become stronger.

He thought this would propel him to greatness and establish him as a legend. However, the dragons were too powerful, and there had never been a precedent of a human taming a dragon. As a result, Dragon Tamer was deemed the most useless profession. Ding! “Sign-in successful. You have obtained a Frost Dragon Egg. Please collect it promptly.” “Congratulations on completing the tri-monthly lucky draw. You have obtained a Black Dragon King hatchling. Please sign a contract with your summoned beast.” With the system at his side, Qin Fan advanced steadily. Eventually, as a Dragon Tamer, Qin Fan summoned over a dozen dragons in one breath to confront the Supreme Demon God. Frost Dragons, Flame Dragons, the Black Dragon King, Emerald Azure Dragons... Facing Qin Fan and his mighty summoned dragons, the Supreme Demon God trembled, his legs weak, and he cursed in frustration: “Who the hell said Dragon Tamer is the most useless profession?!”

On her eighteenth birthday, Valerie Lane’s dreams for the future–getting accepted into the Helblaze pack–came crumbling down when she wasn’t blessed with her wolf form. The Moon Goddess’ betrayal left her in so many pieces that she was unable to recover for months… until her fate finally smiled upon her and blessed her with her mate. Valerie’s lonely and sad life turned perfect overnight, almost like something out of a fairytale. Caleb Lockhart–the beta of the Helblaze pack–was everything that she had ever dreamt of. If one were to believe Valerie’s perspective, he was more than she deserved–tall, handsome, charming, and above all… loving. Valerie relishes in the bliss of her newfound love life until Caleb starts showing his true colors. She constantly has to beg for an ounce of affection from her mate, and constantly has to endure the ridicule from the other women and the pack members. Just when she believes that she is fated to rot in hell on earth, someone else starts showering her with the affection she so desires. Will Valerie open her heart to the man who can be her salvation from eternal damnation? Excerpt: “Open your mouth,” he commanded in a ragged whisper. I did as he asked. Although embarrassed, I parted my lips, just enough to let out the breath that I was holding. His lips immediately sealed mine shut and began to move skillfully–every stroke of his jaw precise and succinct–evoking the primal urge from deep within me. I tried to keep up with his pace but my inexperience was painfully obvious. He suddenly entangled his slender fingers with my loose hair and pulled it down to tilt my head up. I don’t know why my heart raced at that action of his, but it did. I bet my heart rate topped the chart when he nipped my lower lip and whispered, my lip still between his teeth, “Open wider. Let me taste you.” Follow me on Instagram for more. https://www.instagram.com/sani_mimosa/ The cover art was commissioned from Artist Shu G Sin. Find him on Instagram @shu_g_sin

I’m Daniel Hex, a 16-year-old from Shanzen Village in the Azure Kingdom—a small, quiet place surrounded by mountains. But my life has never been quiet. People here avoid me. They whisper about me behind closed doors, call me cursed, and treat me like an outsider. Even the farmer who raised me after I was orphaned always warned me to fear the night. He’d say, “Monsters come out when the moon is high. Stay inside. Never wander.” I listened, but the warnings didn’t stop the strange things from happening. Sometimes, I wake up deep in the forest, with no memory of how I got there. My dreams are haunted by a world different from ours—a place darker, more dangerous, where shadows move and whisper. I’ve been there once before, when I was a child. I don’t remember much, but I know one thing: that place is real. They call it the Hex World, a realm of myth and legend, hidden from the weak and unreachable for most. But for some reason, it calls to me. It’s as if I don’t belong here in this world, but there, in its endless darkness. I can’t ignore it anymore. I have to uncover the truth about the Hex World and why it’s tied to me. What are these memories? Why do people fear me? And why does the darkness always find me, no matter where I go? The answers lie beyond the veil of reality. But finding them might cost me everything—even my humanity.
