Radar Bets

"Let's make a bet, shall we?" It all started with a bet. Top of his class, known to be able to wield multiple weapons proficiently and the greatest combatant around his peers, Jackson Clover, also known as Lander Academy's strongest student. Everyone thought it would be natural that he would climb the tower; some even thought that he had a high potential to be a ranker, but that didn't happen. Why? Well, the answer was simple; he didn't receive any invitation. Because of this, Jack is forced to see his friends go to the tower while he simply lives his life trying to pay his bills. Having been thrown into massive debt by his father and his mother being admitted to the hospital, Jack is forced to carry this burden with his older brother, but one day his older brother suddenly disappears. Jack couldn’t find him, and he had no time to search for him, and so he continued to carry it alone. He worked long hours and took multiple part-time jobs in the hope that everything would work out. But instead, nothing goes right for him. He was simply unlucky. Unlucky and a fool. One day the fool makes an outrageous bet that will change his entire life forever.

Making sure Gabe here stays exactly where he belongs—at the bottom.”

As a king standing at the top of the pyramid, he has long been accustomed to feeling superior. He is aloof and abstinent from women. Under various pressures from his family, he chose her. However, she reacted so slowly that it took her a long time to realize his feelings. Yet, on the day of the engagement, he appeared, holding another woman's hand. She froze in shock, unable to speak a word. "You know what? This is what you owe me!" he said nastily. Later, fate dealt her a cruel blow: the company collapsed, her father fell critically ill, and she was faced with a mountain of high-interest loans. Desperate, he pushed her to the brink and said, "I can help you out of this mess, but you have to be my mistress." Their relationship thus became a dance of love and hate. When he discovered she had a six-year-old son, he sneered, "What a shameless woman!" She was pursued by others, and he was very angry, "Stop flirting with other men!" Later, as her memories returned, her love and admiration for him turned into anger and hatred. He also deeply regretted and blamed himself after learning the truth, wanting to make up for it. "Let's get married." He said. "How dare you?" She replied with a sneer. She thought her revenge plan was flawless, but he was in fact very smart and had already spotted the flaws. He willingly stepped into her trap, betting that she still loved him...

The MMORPG 'EVR' was released unexpectedly one day, along with its advanced equipment that allowed players to fully immerse themselves in the game, even though prior VR technology wasn't nearly as realistic. To prevent people from replacing their real lives with the game, the servers were shut down during the day and on weekends. I was the best at the game, but since I had no friends or family, I could only watch and bet on sports while waiting for the servers to reopen—until the day I died and regressed to a week before the game was released. I know everything that will happen in the game. I know the game is not just realistic; it's real. And for some reason, I don't need to log out! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a no-harem story (and probably no romance, either, but you never know). It starts off quickly after narrating unnecessary details, so I suggest reading at least a few chapters to get to the heart of the story.

In the vast Nazare Blade Empire, ruled with an iron hand by Emperor Groa Aratat, there existed eight princes, each striving for recognition and power. Among them was Josh Aratat, the most obscure and least acknowledged of the emperor’s sons. Born of a mother who passed away when he was just a child, Josh grew up in the shadows of his more celebrated brothers, his heart burdened with loss and his life marked by solitude. One fateful day, Emperor Groa decreed a challenge: each of his sons was to venture into separate regions of the empire, conquer them, and win the loyalty of their people. The prince who demonstrated the greatest strength, strategy, and ability to amass supporters would be crowned the imperial prince—the heir to the throne. The empire buzzed with speculation. Most believed the title would go to the mighty firstborn, Balek Aratat, renowned for his unparalleled strength. Others placed their bets on the cunning second-born, Jaden Aratat, or the skilled third-born, Gerard Aratat. Few gave any thought to the younger sons, particularly the sixth to eighth—Josh included. In their eyes, he was merely a shadow, unworthy of mention in the race for the throne. But everything changed when Josh encountered a dying man, condemned to execution for the crime of stealing bread. Wracked with despair and tired of his own existence, Josh made a startling decision—he offered to take the man’s place, embracing what he thought would be his end. Yet, in an unexpected twist of fate, death did not claim him. Instead, Josh emerged from the ordeal with a newfound power—an extraordinary ability granted as a result of his selfless act. This gift would not only alter the course of his life but also shake the foundations of the Nazare Blade Empire and the world beyond.

Silas grinned mischievously. “That’s a tough one.” Julius noticed the sly smile on Silas’s face and realized he’d been teased. “Just kidding~” Silas said, chuckling. “Well, Agares is a bit of a mystery. He’s strict but has a laid-back side too. He’s cold most of the time but can be surprisingly kind in rare moments?” Julius couldn’t help but laugh at the contradictory description. “Why do you make it sound like you’re unsure?” “Because he really is a puzzle.

There have been incidents where girls from the academy tried to sneak into East Laurence just to see him. It’s crazy.” “Anyway,” Silas said, “you probably won’t interact with him much unless absolutely necessary, so don’t stress too much about it.” That should’ve been the case, and yet, he found himself interacting with the dark haired boy more and more, his admiration slowly started to change into something more. “Do I like him?” He couldn’t help but ask himself. …………………..

Synopsis: Thirty years ago, Han Seong-jin was an ordinary man until a crack in reality pulled him into the Void—a realm of eternal darkness and terror. Once the Birthplace of Gods, the Void had become the spawning ground of World Devourers, monstrous entities capable of consuming entire stars. Trapped in this forsaken dimension, Seong-jin fought for his survival against unimaginable horrors. When he slew a Primordial Devourer, he ascended to godhood, wielding power no mortal could comprehend. When Seong-jin finally escaped and returned to Earth, thirty years had passed. The world he once knew had transformed into an era ruled by gates, portals to other dimensions that unleashed monsters upon humanity. Hunters, ranked by strength, had become society's elite, while guilds vied for dominance in this new order. Despite his divine power, Seong-jin’s evaluation ranked him as an F-rank, the weakest possible tier. Ridiculed by hunters and rejected by guilds, he decided to embrace an ordinary life, working as a pizza delivery man while keeping his godhood a closely guarded secret. But living a normal life isn’t easy when you’ve fought gods and monsters for centuries. As guilds continue to dismiss him and society underestimates him, Seong-jin remains content to stay under the radar. Yet, the echoes of his past linger, and those who sense the faintest traces of his true strength begin to take notice. Seong-jin just wants peace and quiet, but the world may have other plans for a god hidden in plain sight.
