Equation Hera

Hera Avery is working several part-time jobs to pay for her university tuition. She is managing her work and love life simultaneously. Her boyfriend, who is a rising celebrity, made her pay for their expensive apartment located in a well-known building. The building is also home to well-known heirs and heiresses. On her boyfriend's birthday and their third anniversary, she returned home to their apartment only to find him with another woman. But what did she get in return? A slap on the face, a breakup and she was evicted from the apartment she was paying with her own money. After being evicted and becoming homeless, she believed things couldn't get any worse. However, her cheating ex-boyfriend's wealthy new girlfriend went further by reaching out to every establishment and persuading them to blacklist her. This caused her to lose her means of living and they even spread rumors that she was obsessed with her former celebrity boyfriend and was attacked by his fans. Having no way out, she gritted her teeth. "Grandpa, I'm willing to inherit the consortium." Old Master Avery laughed heartily after hearing her conviction and sent a bank transfer to Hera. [ You received a $100,000,000,000 money transfer to your account ending in ####] [Note: My dear granddaughter, use this pocket money to treat yourself to anything you desire. Don't be frugal, and if you spend it all, don't hesitate to ask me for more.] Hera was astounded. When her identity was announced, her ex-boyfriend kneeled and cried to her, for her to take him back. The sarcastic Male lead 1: Do you think it's your turn? Look behind. When her ex-boyfriend looked back, he saw influential men lining up with bouquets of roses to woo Hera. The cold Male lead 2: It's your fault for being blind. Cry and beg but you'll have no chance as long as we are here. The brutal and impatient Male lead 3: Do you want me to break your legs?! The entertainment King Male lead 4: You're just a little star but you want to bypass me? The hot-headed Male lead 5: I'll make sure, you'll be shelve. The coquettish Male lead 6: Wifey, they are trying to steal you from me! Seeing the problematic Male leads, Hera felt an incoming headache not knowing what to do. "Let's just go with the flow then!"

I once believed life a simple equation: the wealthy thrive, the impoverished endure, the unburdened soar. Yet, even the freest of birds find their wings clipped by unseen cages. In this world, no station offers sanctuary; suffering, an inescapable shadow, finds all. And in its grim embrace, all paths converge upon death. This is not a chronicle of fleeting hope. This is not a legend whispered of redemption. This is the harrowing saga of a man twice shattered by the cruel hand of fate.... crushed, betrayed, mutilated. A soul condemned to an endless cycle of reincarnation, dragged back to a world that refuses to release its grip, only to fall, again and again. Each return a fresh descent into the abyss. But will he forever kneel, a puppet to his torment? Will he remain the naive fool who clung to the illusion of kindness? Or will the fractured remnants of his being coalesce into a force the world has never witnessed? A mastermind forged in the crucible of despair. A monster destined to unravel all, even himself. This is the tale of Veythor: the man who defied the quietude of death. And perhaps… the man who will shatter fate itself.

If you had a golden apple, who would you give it to? Invited to the banquet, Luo En saw the golden apple in the plate inscribed with "To the fairest goddess" and the three goddesses embroiled in dispute before him, and he picked up a knife with a smug smile. The first step, peeling; he gave the skin to Aphrodite. "To be fair, you're quite pretty. As a layer of skin, you're not bad to look at." The second step, slicing the flesh; he gave that to Hera. "As the queen of heaven, yet everyone in Olympus from 800-year-olds to animals has cuckolded you, including males, females, and even sheep. Since you can't save face anyway, take these insides." The third step, he gave the remaining core to Athena. "You were supposed to be born a male god and take over Zeus's position, but due to Zeus's shenanigans, you lost that seed, so here, have this core." Aphrodite clenched her fists, Hera raised her scepter, Athena summoned her spear and shield... Seeing this, Luo En quickly stepped back, shielding the goddess of discord, Eris, firmly in front of him. "And you still want to be the goddess of discord? Look at me; I got them to unite at once, even better than you with your instigation." "..." Surrounded by Greek gods sharpening their knives, Eris was left in silence.

``` Hera Avery sedang bekerja paruh waktu di beberapa pekerjaan untuk membayar uang kuliahnya. Ia mengatur pekerjaannya dan kehidupan cintanya secara bersamaan. Pacaranya, yang merupakan selebritas yang sedang naik daun, membuatnya membayar apartemen mewah yang berlokasi di sebuah bangunan ternama. Bangunan itu juga ditinggali oleh pewaris dan warisati yang terkenal. Pada hari ulang tahun pacarnya dan peringatan hubungan mereka yang ketiga, dia pulang ke apartemen hanya untuk menemukannya bersama wanita lain. Tapi apa yang didapatkannya sebagai balasan? Sebuah tamparan di wajah, putus cinta dan dia diusir dari apartemen yang dia bayar dengan uangnya sendiri. Setelah diusir dan menjadi tunawisma, dia percaya bahwa hal-hal tidak akan bisa menjadi lebih buruk lagi. Namun, pacarnya yang berselingkuh itu punya kekasih baru yang kaya dan pergi lebih jauh dengan menghubungi setiap tempat dan membujuk mereka untuk memasukkan namanya dalam daftar hitam. Hal ini menyebabkan dia kehilangan mata pencahariannya dan bahkan mereka menyebarkan rumor bahwa dia terobsesi dengan mantan kekasih selebritinya itu dan diserang oleh para penggemarnya. Tidak ada jalan keluar, dia menggertakkan giginya. "Kakek, aku bersedia mewarisi konsorsium itu." Tua Tuan Avery tertawa lepas setelah mendengar tekadnya dan mengirim transfer bank ke Hera. [ Anda menerima transfer uang sebesar $100,000,000,000 ke rekening Anda yang berakhir dengan ####] [Catatan: Cucuku yang terkasih, gunakan uang saku ini untuk memanjakan diri dengan apapun yang kamu inginkan. Jangan pelit, dan jika kamu menghabiskannya, jangan ragu untuk meminta lebih kepada saya.] Hera tercengang. Ketika identitasnya diungkap, mantan pacarnya berlutut dan menangis memintanya agar diambil kembali. Pemeran utama pria yang sinis 1: Kau pikir giliranmu? Lihat ke belakang. Ketika mantan pacarnya menoleh ke belakang, ia melihat pria-pria berpengaruh berbaris dengan buket bunga mawar untuk merayu Hera. Pemeran utama pria yang dingin 2: Salahmu sendiri karena buta. Menangis dan memohon tapi kamu tidak akan punya kesempatan selama kami ada di sini. Pemeran utama pria yang brutal dan tidak sabar 3: Kamu mau saya patahkan kakimu?! Raja hiburan pemeran utama pria 4: Kamu hanya bintang kecil tapi ingin mengalahkan saya? Pemeran utama pria yang pemarah 5: Aku akan pastikan, kamu akan dikesampingkan. Pemeran utama pria yang genit 6: Sayang, mereka coba mencuri kamu dariku! Melihat pemeran utama pria yang bermasalah, Hera merasa pusing yang tidak tahu harus berbuat apa. "Ya sudah, ikuti saja arusnya!" ```

As all kids do, Hera wanted to be an explorer. Sadly when she turned 18 she discovered that her stats and lack of skills made her fail the requirements to become one, and she went to work on a bookstore. That should have been the end of her story. But when she wins a lottery to have her level up she discovers a hidden skill and a rare one at that. The system gave her dream back, and this time she is not letting it go. ############################## The story is about a world where game-like systems are the norm, Everyone has a level, status and even skills are a common thing. If your stats are good you can even become an explorer, someone that ventures inside a place called MAZE, a dungeon of sorts filled with monsters creatures and things that the regular world is missing such as magic. The story follows Hera, a woman who wanted to be an explorer but her status were too low to become one. One day she wins a raffle that allows her to level up for the first time giving her the chance to achieve her childhood dream. It's more about how things work and what you can do with them than about power or revenge. The rhythm might be a bit slow for some but that is the idea. I want to give sort of a slice of life feeling to most of it. ###############################

"A forgotten noble wakes with a system that sees the world as equations. Magic is no longer a gift — it's something to be solved. They called my affinity useless. They had no idea I’d rewrite the laws of magic." Born the third son of a minor baron, I was given the rarest — and most mocked — affinity: Logic. It doesn’t burn. It doesn’t heal. It doesn’t destroy. But it sees. In a world ruled by divine bloodlines and evolving monsters, I’ve been sent to the empire’s top magic academy — a proving ground for the strong, and a graveyard for the forgotten. Whispers speak of ten lost beings tied to the fate of the world… And while others train to follow the rules of magic— I’m here to break them. This is the rise of the weakest affinity. This is the beginning… of the Tenth Script. --- "Thank you for checking out Advent of the Tenth Script! This novel is about logic-based magic, telekinesis, ancient runes, and a war creeping beneath the surface of a magic academy. If you're into Shadow Slave, MoL, or LOTM, I think you'll enjoy the slow-burn mystery and unique magic system. Feel free to leave thoughts—every bit of feedback means a lot."

When a nameless gutter-rat in the smog-choked City of Iron scrawls a stolen ley-map beneath Maiden Bridge, a single tram-spark ignites his chalk, and the hidden System awakens.   Status: Null Overtone (Stable)   Spectral Mass: 0   Constraint: Undefined   Paradox Risk: 97 % Instead of dying, the boy becomes Cipher, a living contradiction who can slip into the zero-gaps between atoms, borrow power he doesn’t own, and repay it as silence. The discovery paints a target on his back: gladiator bounty-hunter Brack Morrow, the all-seeing Concord of Twelve, and rival Spectra-lords who guard reality’s twelve colorful layers with bloody zeal. Thrown into underground arenas, clockwork graveyards, and sky-bridges where numbers themselves fracture, Cipher must: Anchor his unstable “Null Overtone” before the System unthreads his atoms. Out-riddle enemies who wield Pulse shockwaves, Echo memory edits, and Glyph reality hacks. Solve the Impossible Fraction : the cosmic equation that says zero can never equal infinity, before the Concord solves it with a firing squad. But every level he climbs rewrites the rules, and every rule he breaks echoes across the Spectra. If Cipher can master all twelve : Null to Infinity, he won’t just escape the slums; he’ll decide which laws of existence stay and which are erased forever. From nothing to god-tier, one loophole at a time. The ascent starts now. P.S.

Ray Arlon had only one dream, to play for Chelsea’s first team. He trained harder than anyone, stayed longer on the pitch, and lived for the game. But no matter how much effort he poured in, he could never make it past the youth academy trials. Crushed and out of chances, Ray gave up. He hung up his boots, buried his dream, and returned to solving algebra equations and applying to colleges, fully aware that the dream of becoming a professional footballer was now nothing more than a distant fantasy. But someone hadn’t given up on him. His father, Dr. Elias Arlon—a renowned neuroscientist, had always noticed his son’s passion, and just as clearly, his lack of natural talent. Determined to bridge that gap, he developed a breakthrough: a nano-cognitive interface designed specifically to accelerate skill acquisition and mental performance. He called it the "Football Leveling System." Through advanced bio-engineering and neural adaptation, Dr. Arlon implanted the system directly into Ray’s brain, giving his son a second chance at the dream he had once let go.

I caught the eyes of the monster. A monster covered behind- a race suit and a helmet. Dashing. Hot tempered. Charming.

Opposite. I was attracted to this villain. A trepidation. This isn't anymore lovely or professional but feels like- Hades is ready to claim his Persephone. One thing that doesn't match with the equation is I am no Persephone. I won't run or hide. This whatever is going on between us, is about to ruin our lives-'miserably'. Specifically I gave myself to a soul carving demon. My Demon.

They called him average. Until he touched something he was never meant to find. Xion was just another boy lost in a digital world — until a strange device rewired his mind. In a single flash of light, knowledge flooded his brain. Equations danced. Codes whispered. The world began to make sense — in ways it never should have. He doesn’t sleep anymore. He doesn’t forget. He doesn’t feel limits. Now, every screen speaks to him. Every machine obeys. Every secret, every lie buried by power — he sees it all. And he’s not just learning from the world anymore. He’s outgrowing it. They want to control him. They want to erase him. But Xion is already ten steps ahead — building something the world has never seen. A mind beyond human. A truth buried beneath layers of silence. Because the greatest weapon isn’t strength… It’s knowledge no one else is allowed to have. He was just a boy. Now he’s becoming the blueprint for the next evolution. And once you see what he sees — You can never go back. ---

Once thought to be mere fantasies and supernatural phenomenon, magic had now become a tangible product of science and technology. Complex codes and groundbreaking energies had brought about an astonishing fusion of science and the supernatural, giving rise to a new generation of professionals—Magic Engineers. These talented individuals applied the principles of science and mathematics to harness magic and provide economical solutions to technical problems. Alexander, a brilliant young man, was a student at the world-renowned Institute of Magic Technology. He was recognized for his exceptional abilities in weaving mathematical equations into intricate magical incantations. As he neared his graduation, he developed an innovative creation—a multi-dimensional magic spell coded with groundbreaking energy equations. This invention, he believed, would revolutionize the field of magic engineering. However, at the grand presentation ceremony, a certain jealous student sabotaged his demonstration. With a swift, devious manipulation of the spell parameters, Alexander's groundbreaking invention went haywire, sending him spiraling into an unknown realm. The hall echoed with gasps as Alexander vanished before their eyes. When Alexander regained consciousness, he found himself in the heart of a dense, verdant forest. His surroundings felt eerily silent, except for the distant rustling of leaves and occasional chirping of unknown creatures. "Wait, what the fuck is that?" Alexander muttered, his eyes widening as he saw a colossal beast lumbering through the trees. Clearly, this was not Earth. There were two moons in the sky, and the animals were like nothing he'd seen before. Yet, the basic laws of physics seemed to be intact. The gravity felt familiar, and the air was breathable. Finding himself in an alien world, Alexander decided to put his skills as a Magic Engineer to the test. Using his scientific knowledge and magical prowess, he set out to understand this new world. He quickly discovered that this world too had magic, but it was raw and elemental, far from the coded sophistication he was used to. The local inhabitants, curious about his strange ways, soon noticed him. Throughout his adventures, Alexander not only solved the world's problems with his unique blend of magic and science but also endeavored to find a way back home. He battled beasts, unraveled mystical puzzles, and gradually unraveled the truth of this world. Meanwhile, back on Earth, the Institute of Magic Technology was thrown into chaos with the sudden disappearance of their most promising student. As they worked to uncover the truth behind Alexander's disappearance, they discovered the altered parameters in his demonstration. Realizing that Alexander might not be lost but rather transported to another realm, they initiated a full-fledged rescue mission. The story of Alexander, the magic engineer, is an epic tale of survival, magic, science, and a quest for home. It shows the power of knowledge and adaptability, demonstrating that even in the most unusual circumstances, the principles of science and magic could bring about solutions. As Alexander seeks a way back to Earth, he continues to mark his name in this strange new world, becoming a legend in his own right.

{WARNING - MATURE CONTENT} "What is your wish?" Gazing into his violet eyes, I ask. Inside deep down, hopes grow. Please don't be something off the line. I can't handle such things like that. It is against will. "There is a massage I want to try out" Zander voices and takes his hands back. I finally get to escape the tight embrace. "Get in the car. There is a place I know" Turning around, I begin to walk away. Yet, his strong arm holds me back. He forces me to face him. What again? "We are not going out, miss independent" He grins. Alone with the evil smile, I can sense the mess he will cause with requests. "I don't know how to massage" A frown displays across my face. I really don't. He should just walk out of my house. "Who says you have to?" Zander raises his right brow. And I quiet down. No fucking way. "I am the one who is going to massage you... your breasts" The last two words he continues, feel like a lightning striking me in the middle of summer day. I knew this devil would ask for such sensual things! "No. Pick another wish. I am not permitting stuff like that" I instruct. Attempting to shove the man's grip away from my arm. "Don't you recall my statement, darling? You are not allowed to decline either" He brags. Of course, I am aware. But seriously? I have had sex for a few times only in my entire life with all the men I wasted my extra time on. I don't find the contentment in that area. "I am getting impatient, love. Let's commence already" Zander flashes his dimple smile. Picking me up in bridal way which catches me off guard. "Put me down!" With the strength I gained before, I try to get away. But still, he won't let me. "Don't move. Otherwise, I might end up doing much more worse thing than the massage to you" The whisper hushes me down. He is a devil, the type to do as his words. I better remain calm. There will be a chance for me to slip through this situation. Yes, I have to wait. "Good girl..." He grins down at me once I cease struggling. Jerk. His steps enter my bedroom. And he places me on the bed. "Strip now" He orders. His hand already has the oil bottle to begin the massage. He is really quick with everything. What should I do? "Come on, my gorgeous" He whines like a child begging for the sweet candy. "Are you certain this is only a massage?" I shoot a slight glare. Maybe it is fine to enjoy this. Also been a long time since I have spent a night with a man. I guess there is nothing to concern to have some fun with this devil. It is not like I can run away. "I would never lie to you" Zander assures. Well, I don't see anything wrong with these wishes. There are no feelings involved as well. I can use him for fun. Right. Think in positive way. "Are you going to observe me take the top off?" Over my query, the man's lips curve up.

Born in 721 CE to an Arab apothecary executed for aiding the Abbasid rebellion, young Jabir ibn Hayyan inherits his father’s revolutionary spirit and scientific curiosity. After fleeing Umayyad soldiers with his mother, he finds refuge in Yemen under astronomer-alchemist Harbi al-Himyari. There, Jabir masters celestial navigation and Greek philosophy, but his defining moment comes when he distills seawater into purity using a clay alembic – awakening his lifelong obsession with transformation. Witnessing mercury-poisoned miners, however, forces a moral reckoning: "Knowledge must serve life, not death." At nineteen, bearing encrypted formulas from his father, Jabir seeks Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq in Medina. Surviving the Imam’s philosophical trials, he becomes his star pupil. Under Ja’far’s guidance, Jabir synthesizes nitric acid ("water that bites stone") and learns to frame experimentation as spiritual devotion. He meets Fatima, a fierce scholar challenging gender barriers, who becomes his intellectual partner. When political pressure mounts, they establish a secret laboratory in Jabir’s ruined childhood home in Kufa. Here, Jabir pioneers systematic chemistry – distilling rose attar, documenting reactions, and encrypting truths in symbolic texts. "Truth corrodes unprepared minds," he warns as orthodox scholars brand him a heretic. His innovations attract the powerful Barmakid family. Summoned to Baghdad’s glittering court in 775 CE, Vizier Ja’far al-Barmaki demands gold transmutation. Jabir stuns nobles by producing ammonium chloride from hair but refuses military applications. "Knowledge must feed the hungry, not kill them," he declares, instead developing steel plows and canal sealants that save thousands from floods. Patronage proves perilous: spies steal his waterproofing formula, and Fatima must run a hidden women’s lab. When the Barmakids fall in 803 CE, soldiers torch Jabir’s workshop. He escapes with core manuscripts, including his evolving *Kitab al-Sab’een* (*Book of Seventy*), framing chemistry as cosmic balance: "As mercury unites metals, knowledge unites soul and cosmos." Exiled and arthritic in Raqqa, Jabir works in a dye shop cellar, refining hydrochloric acid while evading spies. He mentors young apprentice Abu Musa, stressing ethics over ambition: "Record every failure – they light the path." Testing arsenic antidotes on himself, he nearly dies but proves their efficacy. As Abbasid enforcers close in, he buries manuscripts in Qum desert jars. Now aging and grieving Fatima’s slow poisoning from mercury exposure, he returns to Kufa. In a final laboratory beneath an indigo shop, he completes his life’s work – quantifying elemental interactions via the *mizan* (balance) system. Surrounded by a mob demanding gold, he whispers his last truth to Abu Musa: "The true elixir is knowledge multiplied through time." Jabir dies in 815 CE, but his legacy ignites a chain reaction. His students smuggle 500+ treatises to Baghdad’s House of Wisdom. By the 12th century, Latin scribes in Toledo translate his works as "Geber," inspiring medieval alchemists. Roger Bacon studies his *Summa Perfectionis*; Newton annotates his texts. Modern spectroscopy confirms his elemental theories, sustainable chemists revive his techniques, and AI reconstructs his charred manuscripts. From the mercury-stained laboratories of 8th-century Kufa to the quantum equations of today, Jabir’s encrypted wisdom endures: the noblest transmutation is not lead into gold, but curiosity into enduring light.

Engineer Lin Tianyu transmigrated to the Great Liang Dynasty and was reduced to a corvée laborer building the deadly dam. Using a bamboo pole to calculate the risk of dam failure, he leveraged geometry to set the gears of fate in motion. From improving looms and coking ovens to casting flintlock muskets, he transformed equations into power—crushing the monopoly of the powerful, taking charge of the royal workshop, and even using the salt production method as bait to lure and kill the Empress Dowager's partisans in the court. When the Di Rong iron cavalry breached the border, he drove a torrent of steel north to defend the emperor: water-powered forging hammers cast cannons that tore through cavalry, and standardized parts were assembled into mobile fortresses on the front lines. After being granted land and enfeoffment, the roar of the steam engine echoed through the new capital, and railways stretched like blood vessels towards enemy countries. The old nobles regarded him as the "Iron-Casting Sorcerer," but impoverished scholars followed him to establish schools of natural philosophy, engraving gunpowder recipes into the textbooks of schoolchildren. And the emperor on the dragon throne, who bestowed the marriage, never imagined that the gunner's quadrant personally calibrated by the orphaned girl Su Yingxue would ultimately measure the weight of the Nine Tripod Cauldrons. This industrial revolution, using carbon as its pen and the metallurgical furnace as its inkstone, is forging Great Liang into a giant cauldron spewing steam—and the one who controls the furnace will eventually hear the echo of steel striking the yellow bell.

In a world governed by fate-bound Paths — where destiny is not chosen, but inherited — Kael Riven was born without one. Rejected by the Threads of Ascension. Denied a future. Doomed to die forgotten. He didn’t. Instead, he learned to do the impossible. To seize broken outcomes. To bind failure itself. To weaponize the ruins of what should have happened. Each death became a lesson. Each setback, a diagram. Each betrayal, another piece of the grand equation. Now, in his 39th attempt, Kael rises not as a hero, nor as a monster — but as something the world has never prepared for: A Hollowbound — one who threads reality from the corpses of discarded futures.
