Seiya rises from the shadows, no longer a punching bag but a force that terrifies demons, monsters, and humans alike. Hero or villain? It doesn’t matter. He’s done obeying, done breaking for anyone. Now, they beg for mercy from the god they tried to crush. Seiya’s only question: should he grant it? Brace yourself for a journey of chaos, revenge, and the rise of an unstoppable power. ———————————————————— Yes!

He’s a handsome, highly educated, and capable man, but with one fatal flaw—he’s always looking for shortcuts, including marrying into wealth. When she finds out she’s become his "target," she feels powerless to resist, torn between her rational mind and her emotions. But one extravagant gala turns her world upside down. He appears as the heir to a prestigious family, exuding an aura of cold authority and unshakable composure that commands attention. Standing amidst the crowd, she’s frozen in shock, silently mocking herself for mistaking this man—so deeply rooted in privilege—for a pretty boy chasing her financial support. Overwhelmed with shame, she quickly makes her exit, only to find him leaning casually against a Lamborghini outside.

"I was sent to kill her... but instead, I fell in love." Kuze Asano — one of the world's most feared assassins, a member of the elite organization known as The Wrath. Cold, merciless, and deadly, his missions never fail. But when his latest target, Ayane Himura, a seemingly ordinary girl, is handed to him — everything changes. From the moment Kuze laid his eyes on her, something inside him shifted. He hesitated. And in the world of assassins, hesitation means death. But even after learning that Ayane was completely innocent, the order was clear — eliminate her. What Kuze didn't know was that The Wrath had already predicted his failure. Anticipating his emotions to get in the way, they send a sniper — Deadeye, another assassin from The Wrath — to kill both Kuze and Ayane if the mission goes south. But Kuze wasn't ready to let go of her. Not after realizing what she truly meant to him. Now, the hunter becomes the hunted. Kuze must fight against his own organization, use all his assassin skills, and protect Ayane at all costs. Even if it means facing his former comrades. As the line between love and death blurs, Kuze faces an impossible choice — Kill her and live, or protect her and die. But for Kuze… dying with her is better than living without her.

[An Announcement from the Author: LLL will undergo major reformations! Expect a reboot of this confusing storyline sometime early January! Thank you for all of your support thus far.] Gods rule over the fundamental creations of life. Lords watch and rule over these Gods’ creations. Phos, the Lord of Light, found himself cornered by a sharpshooter in the dead of the night. This unlikely encounter led to destiny. — The marksman needed to kill a kind, beautiful man. From the photos, his target had crystalline orange eyes and glowing silver hair that cascaded down to the floor in waves. But, as with everything, the real man looked far more lucent and stunning. Like a soft light, like the first glimmer on the ocean’s surface as the Sun arose. Before he could raise his sniper’s rifle to extinguish this ray of light, however, the beautiful target pulled out a pistol and shot him straight in the abdomen. “I hope you don’t die. Good day.” With that, he swiftly turned and left, disappearing into the darkness, his long hair bouncing to his every crisp footstep. Leaving behind the confused marksman, who, dazed, clutched his new wound and slumped to the floor. Later on, the marksman managed to act stupid enough to gain his target’s trust. Showing his true colours, he toyed with a lock of his former victim’s hair, which was as silky and soft as he imagined. He held it to his lips, raised a corner of his black turtleneck to show the bulletwound on his abdomen, and whispered in a deep voice: “This wound, how will you repay it?” The original target, who shined like a dim candlelight under the rays of the moon, stretched up his bound arms to the hitman, brought a gentle hand to his skin, covered the wound… and with an unapologetic, professional business smile, he replied: “I’m sorry, are you really sure you have a scar there? How come I don’t see anything?” The marksman: … It’s because you’re covering it. The man he originally had to kill, who wore white silk pyjamas and a flame-like orange scarf every day and who looked like he could fall over with a slight push from the wind, was actually very resistant—and really, really pissed him off.

If there was an award for the unluckiest guy alive, Leonis Asher would win it. Hands down. One minute, he's the Dungeon Master feared across realms—powerful, undefeated, and surrounded by enemies. The next, he's dead. Betrayed by those he trusted most. Just when he thinks it’s the end, he wakes up in a body that isn’t his. Scratch that. A life that isn’t his. Because Leonis Asher is now Leo Ashbourne—a sickly fool at Arcane Academy who can’t cast a spell without blowing something up. Mocked, underestimated, and constantly reminded that he’s the weakest student in his year, Leo’s life is one humiliating disaster after another. And now it’s Leonis’s problem. Great. Just great. As if things weren’t already bad enough, his new roommate is Damien Nightshade—the Demon Prince in disguise, sent to find the prophesied mage with a dungeon system powerful enough to decide the fate of the war between demons and mortals. Unaware that his clueless, overconfident, and annoyingly nosy roommate is the very target he seeks. Now, Leonis has to survive in a body so weak it can’t handle a light breeze, let alone the simplest of spells, plot revenge on those who killed him in his previous life, put his bullies in their place, and figure out why his new life comes with a 'mischievous' Dungeon System that seems determined to make everything ten times harder. All that in addition to keeping his true identity hidden from the Demon Prince who wants him dead. Yep. His new life was this troublesome. Worse still there's a brewing war between demons and mortals and his powers just so happen to be at the center of it all. Surviving magic academy is already hard enough. Surviving as the key to a war that could tear the world apart? That’s a death sentence.
