Corrupted Bonds

In a world torn apart by rifts that release dangerous monsters, Espers—humans imbued with powerful abilities—serve as humanity's last line of defense. But the power of an Esper comes with a price. Overuse of their abilities leads to dangerous corruption, a force that can destroy them from the inside out. This is where Guides come in: individuals with the unique ability to calm the corruption within Espers and restore their balance. Rowan Mercer, an S-class Guide, is one of the best in his field, capable of stabilizing even the most dangerous Espers. He has worked quietly behind the scenes, helping those in need, but his life takes a dramatic turn when he is called to work with Lucian Vaughn, an S-class Esper whose immense power and unstable corruption levels make him a dangerous threat to himself and others. Lucian, a tall, stoic, and enigmatic figure, has long fought against the growing corruption within him. At first, his relationship with Rowan is purely professional—Rowan as his Guide, helping him to stay in control. However, as their interactions grow more frequent, their bond deepens in ways neither expected. What started as a simple duty soon turns into a complex relationship where power, trust, and vulnerability collide. As the world around them faces escalating threats from rifts, Rowan and Lucian must navigate not only their personal challenges but also the dangerous world of Espers and Guides. Their bond will be tested as they fight together against the corrupting forces that threaten them both. In Corrupted Bonds, survival isn’t just about battling monsters from the rifts—it's about fighting the darkness within themselves and finding a way to stay connected in a world that’s constantly pulling them apart.

Strongest Esper In The Academy

Kage Ryujin has lived in emotional silence ever since surviving the car accident that claimed his parents’ lives. Now eighteen, detached from society and indifferent to the world around him, he passes his days in quiet solitude—sustained by an inheritance and a daily routine of video games, late-night scrolling, and instant noodles. But one ordinary morning, a strange message appears on his phone, offering to transport him into his favorite game—with a bonus reward for “overpayment.” He dismisses it as a scam… until a glowing summoning circle appears beneath him. Now trapped in the very world he once knew as fiction, Ryujin finds himself not as the hero, but as a nameless side character in the backdrop of someone else’s story. The main cast—legendary Espers he once admired—are real. They’re powerful. They are arrogant. And worst of all, they see him as irrelevant. But Ryujin knows something they don’t: this world runs deeper than the events they think they control. With mysterious abilities granted by the System and insider knowledge of the game’s future, Ryujin begins carving his own path. One that puts him on a collision course with the chosen protagonists themselves. As he rises through the ranks at Esper Academy, Ryujin’s presence begins to disrupt the natural order. Jealousy brews. Alliances fracture. Fated heroes turn hostile. And the further Ryujin steps into the light, the more dangerous his existence becomes. In a world where strength defines status and destiny favors the few, an apathetic outsider must defy the narrative—or be crushed beneath it.

The Halo Effect

Noel Arden just wants to disappear. As a member of a prestigious and influential family known for producing powerful espers and guides, Noel’s D classification is an embarrassment. Determined to work as a guide despite his father’s opposition, Noel spends his days in the D-suite of Halo, the largest, most successful Paradigm agency in the country, keeping his head down and enduring the less pleasant aspects of his job. It’s not a bad life; he likes his coworkers, he doesn’t have to rely on his increasingly hostile father, and he’s almost never deployed to Fray sites. As long as he steers clear of his S-class esper half-brother, he can just melt into the background and pretend to be a normal, low level guide, just one of hundreds in Halo’s bottom ranks. Invisible and unremarkable. Exactly the way he wants it. Then an emergency situation during an unexpected deployment forces Noel to shatter his quiet, boring life with his own hands and thrusts him directly into the notoriety he’s worked so hard to avoid. When he witnesses Jade Ransom, Halo’s star esper and one of the only S-classes in the country, melting down from corruption overload, Noel has no choice but to use the ability he swore to never reveal in order to save both Jade and the city from destruction. Jade, desperate after a life of guiding intolerance, latches onto Noel as the only guide he’s ever properly synced with and insists on being exclusive partners. With his back against the wall and his pesky conscience whispering in his ear, Noel agrees. Struggling to balance his secret, his normal job, and his connection to Jade, Noel finds the stable life he worked so hard to build crumbling around him. And as he and Jade grow closer, Noel has to reckon with the vast differences between them and decide if he’s prepared to burn himself out just to let Jade shine. #GUIDEVERSE #ESPER #SLOWBURN [ADULT LANGUAGE AND SUBJECT MATTER]
