A girl named Karin accidentally gets involved in a murder case at her school. It all started when she accidentally found the body of the school janitor behind the warehouse. This piqued her curiosity about what had happened. She still clearly remembers the blood pooling, turning the grass red. The body lay sprawled with several stab wounds. The corpse looked like a small animal, helpless before its predator, dead just like that. Before discovering the body, she crossed paths with a man. A tall man with a mask and dark sunglasses covering his face. The man also wore a hat to cover his hair. His clothes appeared to be layered, and he carried a large bag that seemed very heavy. However, there was something the man could not hide. The clear scent of blood emanating from his body. Karin had a sharp sense of smell and she was certain the odor she detected was blood. Chaos erupted in the school environment. People started forming their own opinions. Karin was the one most affected. She was often questioned about the body she found. People kept asking her to recount the story. At that moment, a new teacher arrived, diverting the attention of the school community. A young teacher with a handsome face that drew everyone's attention. The murder case faded away just like that. The police couldn't find any more clues. When people started to forget, Karin felt something was off. The young teacher looked strange in her eyes. Karin felt that the teacher was constantly watching her. The teacher also had a blacklist that he showed to his students. He said the book was a record for the naughty children. If their offenses exceeded three times, those naughty ones would be punished. That's when the next murder began.

My name is Azrael Veyrin. Once, I was just a man—an ordinary life, a loving family, and a peaceful end at 87. Or so I thought. I awoke in Akshak, an empty, lifeless world. Alone at first, I later witnessed the arrival of eleven beings—gods who shaped the land, each crafting a realm in their own image. Yet, I remained unseen, an anomaly even among deities. For 576.4 billion years, I wandered unnoticed—until they discovered the truth: I was the first, predating even them. Fearful of my existence, they sought to erase me. A war erupted, lasting 100,000 years. One by one, the gods fell. Only I remained. In victory, I found the Origin Core, unlocking lost truths: Earth had once been part of this world, sacrificed for its rebirth. My soul had been chosen to guide its evolution. With the gods' power now mine, I ventured into the void, seeking other realms, other Origin Cores—to forge a world of my own design.

Before gods ruled and demons rebelled, before angels sang and mortals prayed, there was The Forge—a cosmic foundry where the first divine shaped. It was neither Heaven nor Hell, but something beyond comprehension. Then, without warning, The Forge vanished from existence. Its name was erased. Its fire extinguished. Its purpose lost. Until now. A nameless entity awakens in the ruins of a world that should not exist. It has no past, no identity—only a single directive burned into its being: "Reignite The Forge." But the gods have long buried its secrets. The angels guard its remains. The demons whisper of a power even they fear. And humanity, caught in the crossfire, has forgotten its place in the grand design. As the being takes its first steps, it begins to shape itself—a mind, a body, a name. But with every revelation, it draws the attention of forces beyond comprehension—ancient gods, fallen titans, and cosmic entities that predate reality itself. Now, the battle for existence begins. The gods will seek to erase him. The forgotten ones will seek to claim him. And the universe will tremble as The Forge remembers. But the greatest question remains… Should it be reignited?

He brought his mouth close to my ears and whispered, a dangerous light glinting in his eyes. "I'll show you just how 'monstrous' I can be."

From fleeing for your safety and enrolling in a school filled with psychopaths… to being claimed by a deranged alpha prince? Yeah, you’re better off dead. • . • Jules’ life was picture perfect until his entire family got murdered all of a sudden, with him being the only survivor. A savior swooped In because he was still in immense danger, and that led to Jules taking on a new identity and becoming a completely different person overnight— and enrolling into Carnivals, a prestigious all-boys school for all supernatural beings. In Carnivals, monsters lurk the dark hallways and the strong preyed on the weak.

He took one glance at Jules and decided there and then that Jules belonged to him. *** I inched backwards, eyes widening even more as my eyes zeroed in on the smirk tugging at the side of his lips. Blaze never smiled, and whenever he does, it never meant anything good. My heartbeat quickened as I scrambled backwards even more, breath stuttering to a stop as he began to narrow the distance between us. In no time, my back was plastered against the cold wall and that was when it hit me right in the chest that I was cornered and ensnared, like an actual prey… by none other than Blaze, when I had thought my life couldn’t get any worse. He towered over me effortlessly, emitting so much dominance and I had to tilt my head backwards for me to be able to meet his dark eyes, and my breath hitched when our eyes locked. He leaned down and my eyes snapped closed at once as I held my breath, waiting for him to strike. I’ve heard all the horrifying, endless rumors about him. He was an Alpha Prince whose presence someone like me should never be in. When I felt the tip of his cold nose glide over the length of my throat, my mouth fell open to release a startled gasp. He dragged in a long, audible breath and I felt a shiver rattle down my spine as I grew even stiffer, confusion clouding my mind. What was happening? Why was he doing this out of nowhere? Oh my gosh… he really was a deranged alpha like everyone says! *** THIS BOOK IS RATED 18+!

In a world consumed by eternal twilight, humanity wakes to a chilling proclamation from the Dread Sovereign: the ruler of life and death. The Abyssal Arbiter System is now active, and every individual receives 1 Abyss Coin, the currency of survival and power. All except for one—Jian Yu, who receives a staggering 1 Trillion Abyss Coins, a gift (or curse) granted by the Dread Sovereign for unknown reasons. This immense wealth offers Jian the opportunity to shape his fate—but it also places a target on his back. With only a single Abyss Coin to their name, the rest of humanity must struggle, trade, and survive. Meanwhile, Jian Yu navigates the depths of the Abyssal Arbiter System, using his incredible wealth and power to take on increasingly perilous trials, unlock forbidden abilities, and challenge the horrors that now roam the Earth. As apocalyptic trials descend and nightmares manifest, humanity is thrust into a macabre game. The Abyss Coins can be earned through blood, ingenuity, and survival but spent just as easily on desperate gambles and fleeting security. The line between savior and predator blurs, and only the cunning and the strong can endure this twisted gamble for survival.

In a post-apocalyptic world, you'll find four main types of people. Those who fight with all their might "the hunters." The ones who leech and exploit others "the pests." The predators, who see everyone as prey. And lastly, we have "the survivors," the resilient ones who never give up. Everyone often fits into one category, but it's hard to determine which one Maya falls into. She's not exactly a fighter, considering leaving her room was a chore even before the apocalypse. A predator? No way—she's always been a pushover. You might think she's a survivor, but that's laughable. She'd rather die from starvation than resort to scavenging. So, how should we categorize her? leeche? Nope. Perhaps a new category is needed: "The Lost"—those struggling to find their place in a shattered world."
