"Kin" was a brilliant and optimistic programmer with a bright future ahead at G-Corp—the number one tech company, a dreamland for innovators. But that dream shattered in an instant. The person he trusted most, his senior colleague Rin, betrayed him in cold blood. She stole his groundbreaking project and presented it as her own, then framed him for misconduct. The fallout was swift—he was fired and blacklisted, with his entire career on the brink of destruction. On the day he lost everything, the rage boiling inside him awakened a mysterious system: “Commander’s Privilege Protocol.” This enigmatic system turned his life into a seductive, high-stakes game. To survive and rise again, he must use his body and hidden desires to complete dangerous and risqué missions—gaining points to unlock skills, items, and stats. From prey, he would evolve into a predator. Once a naive young man, Kin now dons the persona of the cold and calculating “King.” His revenge begins with a return to G-Corp—not as an employee, but as a silent conqueror. One by one, he sets out to “claim” key pieces on the chessboard: the charming colleagues, seasoned managers, and even high-profile clients. Every intimate encounter expands his web of influence and uncovers buried secrets in a corporate battlefield that grows more cutthroat by the day. But the deeper Kin descends into this game, the more he realizes that Rin is only a symptom of a much deeper rot. His true enemy is the "system" itself—an organization ruled by Sasi, the Ice Queen CEO. A powerful, brilliant, and isolated woman who harbors a deep hatred for men, she stands as the ultimate obstacle to his vengeance. This is no longer just about one woman’s betrayal. It’s a full-blown war for power, secrets, and domination— and the final mission will determine who claims the throne of G-Corp.

In 2025, the mysterious “Virus Z” appeared in the Russian city of Sevastopol, transforming citizens into ravenous zombies. What was first thought to be a simple epidemic quickly revealed itself to be the most threatening pandemic in human history. Confident at first that they could stop this new pandemic, the world's governments failed to grasp the scale of the threat. As a result, China and Korea were among the first to fall. Then India, then Russia, until the whole Asian continent had collapsed. With no army able to stop the zombie tide, all of Afro-Eurasia succumbed and became a massive uninhabitable zone. In the end, only nature's impassable borders—the oceans—halted the spread of Virus Z. Ten years later, the world is divided into two zones: the forbidden Black Zone, where the infection is still present, and the White Zone, home to the world's survivors and refugees. The White Zone survives only due to Dr. Goldberg's “Genesis Project”—the creation of living biological weapons immune to Virus Z. These people, whose DNA has been modified to make them super-powerful, are known to the world as “Hunters."

Ethan's head throbbed violently as he opened his eyes, his vision hazy and unfocused. A dull ringing filled his ears, drowning out his thoughts. "What’s happening…?" he thought, his mind sluggish, struggling to catch up with reality. One moment, he was asleep—or at least, he thought he was—and the next, searing pain forced him awake. His vision swam, shapes blurring together in a disorienting mess. But then, muffled noises filtered through the haze—frantic, panicked sounds. Someone was trying to scream, their voice smothered, choked by something. A cold shiver ran down his spine. As his sight gradually sharpened, Ethan's breath hitched. He was on all fours, looming over someone. A girl. Her body twisted and writhed beneath him, ropes biting into her wrists and ankles. Her mouth was gagged, muffling her cries. Her wide brown eyes, brimming with fear and fury, glared up at him. Ethan's body locked in place, his blood running cold. "What the…?" His mind reeled, thoughts slamming into each other in chaotic disarray. "What kind of bizarre dream is this?" Panic clawed at his chest. His breath came in ragged, uneven gasps as he scrambled backward, only to realize his limbs felt sluggish, uncooperative, like they didn’t belong to him. "Is this… is this some kind of twisted fantasy I never knew I had?" A sickening thought slithered through his mind, making his stomach churn. The girl's frantic squirming slowed for a moment, her gaze flickering with confusion as she took in his expression—his trembling hands, his wide, horrified eyes. But the fear returned just as quickly. She struggled harder, her body arching, her muffled screams rising in pitch. Ethan wanted to speak, to say something, anything, but before he could force out a word, a glowing blue window materialized before his eyes. His breath caught. A translucent, hovering screen? "What…?" Lines of glowing text scrolled across its surface. --- [System Activated…] [Host Confirmed.] [Simulating Previous Data…] Ethan awakens in a mysterious world, shackled by a curse that clouds his judgment and drives him toward choices he never wished to make. Burdened by guilt and responsibility, he must navigate the fallout of his actions while unraveling the truth behind the curse—and his place in this enigmatic new reality.

Kaito's world shatters when his girlfriend, Rina, is tragically gunned down on the last day of the third week of July. Consumed by grief and a desperate hope, he dedicates his life to completing Rina's theoretical research on time travel, driven by a mysterious symbol of a trumpet-shaped hose and inexplicably appearing notes that aid his progress. His first journey back in time, to save Rina, ends in horrifying failure, witnessing her death again despite his intervention. Undeterred, a slightly older Kaito tries again, this time working in secret as a janitor to guide his younger self's research, hoping a more refined approach will succeed.
