Guided by a mysterious System, he is labeled as the “Chosen One,” a hero destined to save a world shattered by ancient calamity.

Emmie’s heart pounded as the figure rose from the shadows, thicker and grayer than before—a far more earthbound and sinister version of the one he thought he’d conquered. The sparkling light from the crystals above seemed to be sucked away, leaving a suffocating emptiness. Even the sound of his friends’ breaths around him grew faint, their voices—one of concern, another of reassurance—muffled echoes through the cavern behind him. Yet he knew he had to press forward, deeper into the darkness, and face this alone. For now. The figure stepped closer, slow and deliberate, its glowing eyes radiating an icy malevolence. “You think you’ve overcome your fears?” it hissed, its voice sharp and grating. “That was nothing. I am the fog inside you—the one you ignore, the one that carves at you.” Emmie swallowed hard, forcing himself upright despite the shaking in his legs. “I’m not afraid of you,” he said, summoning courage he didn’t fully feel. “I’ve come too far to turn back.” The figure’s laughter crawled down his spine. “Brave, so brave… but so foolish. You’ve barely begun to uncover the truths buried in your soul. Your doubts, your regrets, your anger—they feed me.” For a moment, Emmie faltered. The words clawed at wounds he’d tried to ignore, stirring his doubts: Could he truly protect his friends? Were his choices enough? The darkness seemed to press closer, suffocating him with its weight. But then he remembered Mira’s voice, full of faith. He thought of Amara’s bright laughter and Cory’s unwavering support. They had believed in him when he couldn’t believe in himself. “Maybe I do doubt,” Emmie admitted, meeting the figure’s glowing gaze. “But those doubts don’t define me. My friends believe in me, and I believe in myself.” The figure’s eyes narrowed, frustration flickering within. “Conviction alone won’t save you,” it hissed. “Your friends are far, and here, it’s just you and me.” It raised its arm, and the shadows coiled into smoky tendrils, striking toward him. Emmie dodged just in time as they slammed into the ground, shattering the stone and sending shards flying. His heart raced, his footing unsteady, but he pushed himself upright. A faint light flickered in his hand—small but wholly his. The figure laughed, mocking him. “Is that all? A tiny flicker? Pathetic.” Emmie clenched his jaw. “It’s enough,” he said. “This light is everything I fought for, everything I believe in.” The figure snarled, and the darkness surged again, crashing against Emmie’s light. Straining against the tide, he closed his eyes and steadied his breathing. He thought of his friends, their unwavering faith, and his purpose. The light steadied, burning brighter. At that moment, he heard their voices—Mira, Amara, and Cory—calling to him. The sound reignited his resolve. As their light joined his, the shadow recoiled, its form shattering under their combined strength. The figure’s voice echoed as it faded: “This isn’t over, Emmie. This is just the beginning.” Emmie stood firm, unwavering. “I’ll be ready. Let’s finish this.”

Lumian Light had always been a boy marked by sorrow. At the age of 12, his world crumbled. His mother was taken from him, and his father abandoned him, leaving behind only the shards of trauma. **December 24, 2222** Lumian found himself growing up in the care of the government federation, a nameless face among countless others. Betrayal came early in life—his only girlfriend played with his heart, discarding him like a passing joke. **December 20, 2227** Life only grew more miserable.

Yet, in the darkness of his despair, a faint memory of his mother’s voice echoed in his mind. Before parting, she had whispered a cryptic last wish: *"Go to the caves of Mt. Atlantas. You will find a wooden house. Save the hanging woman."* It had been six years since that day. The date she had given him—**January 17, 2228**—was now here. Could this journey change his life? Could he rise above his pain and find strength? Was there still a chance to reunite his shattered family? Only time—and courage—would reveal the answers.

In the frozen kingdom of Aquindor, mysterious fissures erupt across the land, releasing deadly creatures and an ancient, malevolent energy. These anomalies shatter the fragile peace of the realm, forcing the Frostguard—Aquindor’s elite warriors—to confront a threat they scarcely understand. Amid the chaos, strange shards are uncovered near the fissures, artifacts that pulse with enigmatic energy and whisper of a long-forgotten war. As the Frostguard grapples with the growing menace, they reluctantly join forces with Kaelen and his band of adventurers, outsiders whose motives are as murky as the fissures themselves. Fragile alliances form and fray as philosophies clash and the stakes rise. Yet, even as the fissures spread and more artifacts are uncovered, it becomes clear that these events are part of something far larger—a system of chaos tied to ancient forces. Far from the kingdom’s view, a lone figure stirs, his solitude broken by the echoes of the fissures. Memories of an ancient war and the burden of his past haunt him as he senses the growing disturbance. Though unseen, his role in the unfolding events grows ever more inevitable. When a massive fissure tears through a key location in Aquindor, the kingdom faces a peril unlike any before. With alliances tested and truths unearthed, one question rises above the fray: Are the fissures a curse to be contained, or a warning of something far greater—something that threatens not just Aquindor, but the balance of the world itself?

What is a man, if not a vessel of hidden truths and whispered deceptions? Beneath the fragile facade lies a labyrinth of secrets—truths buried so deeply they intertwine with the lies we tell ourselves just to survive another day. The masks we wear may fool the world, but they cannot hide the fractures within. Even those we hold closest, the ones we entrust with our hearts, may be the very hands carving unseen wounds into our souls, feeding them to the monsters lurking in the shadows. Blood tells no lies, flowing only when life is claimed, but even its crimson clarity is no guide to the truth. How does one find what is real when their very existence is a fractured mirror, splintered into shards that reflect only distorted glimpses of an identity lost? Each shard offers the promise of clarity, yet together, they form nothing but ruin. To uncover the truth is to brave the labyrinth, to face the darkness, and to risk losing what little remains of the self. For in the end, can a man truly hold a reflection if he no longer knows who—or what—he truly is?

My life had always been a series of disappointments. Every dream I chased—whether career ambitions, friendships, or even love—seemed to fall apart. By the time I turned 22, I had hit rock bottom, questioning if life was even worth living. That’s when I discovered VRMMORPGs (Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games), a world where I could escape my misery and become someone else. One game, Gildoria Online (GO), stood out above all. Set in a realm of magic and swordplay, it was everything I had ever dreamed of. A place where I could grow stronger, conquer kingdoms, and battle legendary foes. At the top of the game was the ultimate challenge—the Demon King, who ruled over a demon army from the top floor of Doomspire Tower in the Demon Kingdom. In GO, my character’s name was Yeongho. I dedicated myself to the game, rising to Level 200 and becoming a respected veteran known for my skill. I spent my time helping newcomers, offering guidance and encouragement. That’s when I met her—a red-haired girl with mesmerizing green eyes. From the moment we crossed paths, I felt an undeniable connection. We became inseparable, laughing, exploring, and conquering the game’s toughest challenges together. For the first time in years, I felt truly alive. But then, disaster struck. Players across the world suddenly vanished from their homes and found themselves physically transported to Gildoria. In a shocking turn of events, 500,000 players were trapped in the game, transported to another world. Gildoria Online had become a supernatural death game. The stakes were no longer just virtual. The game’s system remained intact, and if a player’s HP dropped to zero, their real body would perish, causing them to vanish from Earth forever. The only way to survive and return to Earth was to defeat the Demon King. I wasn’t logged in when the catastrophe began, but when I saw Mina’s ID among the trapped players, my heart sank. I couldn’t just stand by. Without hesitation, I logged in, determined to rescue her from this nightmare. My body slowly transformed into shards of light, and I was transported to Gildoria. This is the story of how I fought against time, fear, and a death game to rescue the girl I met in a virtual world—a world where the line between life and death had disappeared.

In the world of Eridoria, where humans struggled to survive against the monstrous forces that threatened to consume everything, there existed a hidden realm known as Aethoria. This parallel world was a place of ancient power, where the fabric of reality was woven from the very essence of magic. To tap into the power of Aethoria, those brave enough to challenge its trials from Eridoria would have to navigate the hidden pathways that connected the two worlds. Once in Aethoria, they would be met with the fabled Spire of Echoes, a towering structure that pierced the skies like a shard of glass. The Spire was said to be comprised of thousands of individual towers, each one representing a different trial, a different challenge, and a different aspect of the self but these towers were separated from the source.Those who sought to gain power from Aethoris would have to climb each tower, facing their deepest fears, desires, and doubts along the way.

One misstep, one moment of weakness, and the climber would plummet to their death, their soul trapped forever in the realm of Aethoria.
