But when a mysterious white-haired human tends to his wounds in the forest—not knowing he’s healing the most dangerous creature alive, something stirs in Elrien’s dead heart. In a realm where demons feast on despair and love is the cruelest curse of all, can Yuta’s gentle heart melt the ice around a demon lord’s soul? Or will the shadows that made Elrien a monster prove too powerful for even the brightest light to penetrate?

Arsol (Username: Hakkun) is your average eighteen-year-old tech nerd; he reads cliche light novels, plays video games (way too many), studies for exams, and he programs! Does he have friends? A social life, maybe? Nah, he’s an anti-social whose inner monologues revolve around how humans suck. He’s the type who blames the world for his problems: edgy, angsty, emo— thinks he’s smarter than everyone and has answers for the world’s crisis. Gotta give it to him, though, he a young talent at whatever he does. His skills for programming, gaming (FPS) as well as studying makes up for the fact that he’s an arse. So much so, that he stops going to school altogether and locks himself in his room, he’d rather be with his computer. Because Arsol is on a mission! He’s been collaborating with online strangers who are all equally gamers and computer nerds, who understand him, and who all have this idea to make this steampunk/dieselpunk game called ‘Hero of Emberstein.’ Now, Arsol won’t lie, he’s obsessed. Being one of the co-creators, he finds himself adding features and details he’d want in an MMORPG. The only thing he dislikes is the customizable character features; he never understands such a personalized activity. He prefers Gacha. After 3 years, the game is finally available for beta testing, his 7 online co-creators are all ready to click the play button. But little does Arsol know, he would for real be in the game, like in person, like ISEKAI-ed, like he could die, for real for real. What's worse is, everyone who clicked the play button for the beta test, has also been Isekaied. So like, maybe over a thousand or more? Arsol thinks it’s his fault innocent players are getting transmigrated into HIS game, because he remembers that he removed the 'EXIT' button as a harmless malfunctioning prank-- turned deadly?! Oops. Journey along with Arsol as he hides his identity as the creator, the culprit, and the administrator. And that time he finds out his 6 online friends are all here as well, but where?! Who?! UGH, THIS IS WHY HE HATES CUSTOMIZABLE CHARACTERS! ( I DO, IN FACT, OWN THE COVER )

WPC JULY 2025 Once, Auren Voss was a ruthless CEO — a man whose handshake felt like a contract with the devil. Betrayed by his own board and shot down at his 102-story penthouse, he opens his eyes again… not in a hospital, but in the rotting shell of an abandoned prince. Prince Caelus Babylon was the kingdom’s greatest shame — born with a cursed soul too powerful for his frail body. Cast out to a forgotten castle, left to rot under leaking ceilings and moldy tapestries, everyone waited for the day the “Soulcursed” heir would die quietly. They got their wish. Except Caelus didn’t stay dead. Now, with the memories of a dying prince and the mind of a cold-blooded corporate predator, Auren inherits more than a body — he inherits a single chance to claw back life from a kingdom that threw him away. His soul still burns too bright for his fragile body. His kingdom is rotting on borrowed time. His name is spoken like a curse by those who cast him out. Swearing he will find a solution for his illness, a Redline suddenly appears and leads him to an answer no sane people would dare touch: a demon’s bargain. Abandoned and forgotten? That’s good. I’ll secretly build my power with demons.

Everything changes when a mysterious alien encounter pulls him into the void, erasing him from his world. Millennia later, a cosmic clash shatters his prison, and Kael’s soul is hurled back into his eight-year-old self—now carrying memories of a strange, limitless visualization space within his mind. In this inner realm, Kael discovers the power to alter reality, simulate futures, and heal his mind. Determined to seize this second chance, he sets out to rebuild his life using his extraordinary mental abilities. As he trains, Kael unlocks new talents left by the alien’s essence: energy manipulation, heightened perception, and control over space and time. But Kael’s awakening draws the attention of otherworldly beings, rogue aliens, and hidden organizations. To protect those he cares about, he must confront his old failures, mend emotional scars, and unravel the secrets of a world teeming with supernatural races—shape-shifters, spirit-callers, arcane sects, and advanced AI. As Kael navigates the tangled paths of physical mastery, energy arts, and mental awakening, he faces challenges that blur the line between reality and imagination. Every step forward brings new dangers—and new possibilities. Redemption, mastery, and the truth behind his powers lie at the heart of a journey where the mind is the ultimate battlefield. Redemption is a story of self-discovery, mental evolution, and the relentless pursuit of a destiny rewritten. Step into a world where the imagination shapes reality, and the quest for inner mastery is both a battle and a blessing

"3, 2, 1… FIGHT!" the referee shouted. Both of the fighters threw punches at each other, and the crowd cheered. Benjo got hit, Chad got punched, and they just kept striking each other. In the video's of their previous fights they made me watch, they just wrestled and pinned each other, and it was boring. Chad got knocked to the ground and got up once more, then Benjo did the same. Mark and I watched in silence, closely. A lot of minutes later, both of the fighters ran out of breath and just stood meters away from each other, each taking a moment to catch their breath. Both of them really gave their all in the fight, they really showed how much they hate each other. The crowd grew silent, and I looked at Mark, "Damn, that was badass!" "Yeah, I agre-" "WHAT IS THAT!" someone shouted while Mark was talking. I look at the fighters, something glowing caught my eye. Their forearm to their fist, is glowing, glowing and blazing with yellow aura, yellow particles are coming out of the aura like a kindling fire. The crowd are in amazement, and I take a closer look. I saw a lion beside each of the fighters. Two lions, one lion beside Chad, and one lion beside Benjo. Both of the lion are growling at each other. Wait, a lion? When did it get there? There shouldn't be supposed to be lions around here.
