At first, their relationship is simple. Al teaches, and Lu learns. He shows her emotions, fairy tales, and the secrets of faraway lands and forgotten eras. But as Lu grows—against all reason in a world without time—her questions deepen. Why am I growing? What am I? Who made me? Each lesson Al shares seems to spark a new mystery, and Lu begins to wonder if Al knows more than he’s willing to tell.

And then, she questions again, something that come crashing down like a storm. “Am I something broken? A mistake?” she asks Al. He tries to calm her with tales of gods and their cherished creations, but the truth lingers in the silence between his words. Heartfelt, melancholic, and filled with quiet wonder, A Tale That Never Known of a being who questions not just her purpose but the very fabric of reality. Each step she takes brings her closer to the answers, yet each answer threatens to undo her. For those who have ever felt lost, for those who have ever sought meaning in the face of the unknown, Lu’s journey is a mirror—a poignant reflection of what it means to exist.

Cameraman Never Dies

In the greed-filled world of corporate empires and magic knights, Min Jae was a king in business, with pockets so deep he could drown in them. That is, until his life deemed his playthrough unfair and gave him a red card. Poison was his family's best friend, as everyone had at least tasted it once, not twice because they never could. Death was never on his calendar, neither was an offer for a divine gig. Enter the Deity of Stories, a celestial being with a fetish for plot twists, who offers Min Jae a deal he can't refuse: become her divine cameraman.

Armed with his divine powers, he navigates complex schemes, power-hungry nobles, and ruthless industrialists, all while keeping his ultimate goal hidden: to ascend to godhood and rewrite his own fate. Of course, he generally makes a glorious mess of things, all while trying to keep his dear parents blissfully unaware of his less-than-angelic schemes. But as the stakes rise and the Deity of Stories watches his every move, Judge must tread carefully. Can he manipulate his way to the top, or will he become just another character in someone else’s plot twist? --- The story won't be dropped and I will continue until the end.

Beyond the Clouds: Rain of Divinity

Every 100,000 years, a holy being is born, foreshadowed by rain in a place of death. Legend believes killing this sacred entity grants one a unique, ultimate ability. However, a million years have passed without the birth of a single holy being, and no one knows what became of the previous ones. There are whispers that the royal families have slain them all and that the gods are punishing humanity—condemning them to suffer in an era where holiness has lost its power. The oracles have lost sight, and demons and the undead have begun their conquest. The youngest prince of the Valgulas Empire, Emrey, finds himself amidst this chaos. As demons and the undead conquer lands, desperation drives humans to embrace demonic powers in a bid to obliterate their foes. Ulrik stands on a battlefield where humans and non-humans clash in a brutal fight for survival. Though humanity is united, the end looms near. But just as the war reaches its breaking point, the heavens open, and the rain begin to fall. “Salvation!” the people cry. “The gods have finally heard our prayers!” Yet, as they rejoice in newfound hope, the rain gives way to a river of blood flowing into the abyss. In a world where the divine is both a curse and a salvation, Emrey must navigate treacherous alliances, confront his own ambitions, and ultimately face the path that could lead him to become a God—or the harbinger of further destruction. Rain of Divinity is the first book in the Beyond the Clouds series. Each book will have 600 chapters.
