However, beneath this facade, Alex harbors a staggering secret: he is the formidable boss of the world's most powerful mafia, controlling the underbelly of global crime while possessing extraordinary superhuman abilities. Alex's life of careful balance is disrupted with the arrival of Olivia Turner, a new student with her own mysterious past and vigilante tendencies.

Simultaneously, his growing bond with Olivia tests his ability to keep his true identity a secret, putting both their lives in grave danger. As tensions reach a boiling point, Alex is compelled to make a critical decision: reveal his true identity and utilize his full powers to protect his loved ones or continue concealing his dual life, risking everything he has built.

In the realm of Gaia, where magic and the mundane coexist, an ordinary high school student named Hiroto Mizushima is unexpectedly transported to a parallel world during a freak cosmic event.

Upon his arrival, Hiroto discovers that he has been granted the unique ability to communicate with and understand all living beings, both sentient and non-sentient. With this power, he finds himself caught in the midst of a struggle between the remnants of a once-mighty empire and the indigenous races that inhabit Gaia. Embracing the moniker of the "Veilwalker," Hiroto navigates the complexities of Gaia's political landscape and learns that the world is divided into several distinct realms, each ruled by powerful beings. To find his way home, Hiroto must unravel the mysteries of the Veil, a metaphysical barrier separating the mortal realm from the ethereal planes.

The Faults of Our Stars

As a child, Miyashita Marou had a unique ability—he could see deep into people's souls. By focusing his gaze onto the stars that seemingly filled people's eyes, he would be able to discern who individuals were, what they were thinking and what their words truly meant, among other things. Using this, he quickly garnered the attention and praise of those around him because when you completely understand others down to their fundamental being, it was easy to get along. However, following an incident in his 2nd year of junior high, Marou began to notice something odd. When he looked into people's eyes, the bright light from them that never bothered him before, started to burn, and as time went on, it became unbearable. With all that was going on in his personal life, alongside his inability to use the ability he had relied on for almost all his life, Marou quickly drifted apart from his friends, leaving behind broken relationships. ...Until his junior year of high school. While going about his business avoiding others as much as possible, Marou stumbles upon the hot topic of his school, the exchange student, Chitose Reiko! Whether her flamboyant, unpretentious attitude or dazzling yet gentle beauty, everyone had something to say about her. But what no one else saw—and what Marou took notice of the most—were her deep blue eyes. Which not only didn't burn to look at, but didn't have any stars to begin with. With her in the picture, how will Marou's life change? Could she hold the answers to the origins of his power? Would she be able to fix his ability? Or will Marou learn to live without it?
