Winning Coding Competition

Kai and Hannah, two of Germany’s most elite spies, have built a flawless record at CIZA, the country's top intelligence agency. By the age of 18, they had completed 50 successful operations, cementing their reputation as the best of the best. However, their world shatters when they unknowingly cross paths with a criminal syndicate far larger and more dangerous than they could have ever imagined. What begins as a routine mission to gather intel on a family tied to the syndicate quickly escalates when the two are taken in by the very criminals they’ve been investigating. Underestimating the family’s influence, they find themselves adopted, lured deeper into a web of secrets. Their moment of discovery comes when they steal a seemingly ordinary chip from the mansion of the syndicate's leader. But when they analyze its contents, they uncover a trail of explosive evidence tied to the death of Kai’s father — locations, data, voice recordings, and photographs. The trail leads them to Kyoto, where Kai’s estranged Japanese mother lives, making the mission personal. Disguised as students, they infiltrate a key school linked to the syndicate. But as they dig deeper, they realize that the family they’ve infiltrated has far more power than they could ever have anticipated, and the danger is only just beginning. --- Will Kai and Hannah’s bond survive when their loyalty is tested by the very people who adopted them? What lengths will they go to uncover the truth behind Kai’s father's death—and what will they risk in the process? How will the discovery of Kai's family ties complicate their mission and their sense of identity? Can they outsmart a criminal empire that is always one step ahead, or will they become pawns in a game much larger than they anticipated?

Witty FL x Adorkable ML + a cute bun + a talking crochet fox ---------- After the sudden death of her boyfriend, Leslie Song has been single-handedly raising her precious little daughter Calliope. It’s a difficult life, but it’s a happy one. A freak accident puts an end to that. As Leslie lies dying on the road, watching Calliope breathe her last, she curses her helplessness. Calliope’s crochet fox seems to hear her. It opens its mouth and asks, “Do you want to see your daughter again? If so, follow me. Her soul has already left for another world.” Leslie agrees. That’s the last thing she remembers before losing consciousness. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself—or rather, her soul—standing beside her unconscious body on a hospital bed. “How is this supposed to help me find Calliope!” she exclaims. “This is not your body. Your body is dead. This is my original host, Charlene Li,” explains the toy fox. “You can possess her body to find Calliope, but if you do, you must finish her uncompleted mission for her.” “And what mission is that?” “To marry the second most eligible CEO in the city.” ‘This,’ Leslie concludes, ‘is a scam.’ But she has no other choice. ********** Meanwhile, the second most eligible bachelor in the city, Calix Xu, is patting himself on the back for thwarting his grandmother’s attempts to marry him off. After exhausting all of his tricks and excuses, he has resorted to marrying the comatose daughter of the Li family. Calix smiles, pleased with himself, "Aren't I smart? Grandmother can do nothing now." But… why is he seeing his newly-wedded wife hovering beside her own body? Before he can react, his wife—the moving one—floats towards him. "Husband! Help me find my child!" “Your child?” Calix asks weakly before doing the only reasonable thing he can do in such a situation. He faints. ---------- WSA 2024 entry!

Takumi Usui, a naturally gifted yet self-doubting midfielder, has just joined Skyline FC Academy, a world-renowned institution known for producing football legends. Though his passing range and tactical vision set him apart, Takumi struggles to find his place among the country’s brightest young football talents. On his first day, he’s immediately thrown into intense competition, facing the brutal reality of a system that demands not just skill, but heart, mental toughness, and relentless perseverance. In Skyline FC, the bar is set impossibly high. The academy’s legendary coach, Sora, pushes every player to their limits. The players are talented, but Takumi quickly learns that talent alone won’t make him a starter—he has to command the game, control the tempo, and become the midfield general his team needs. But it’s not just the football field that challenges him. Off the pitch, he navigates the complexities of friendships, rivalries, and a blossoming romance with Saki Hoshino, a kind-hearted girl from his school who offers him emotional support even when he feels like giving up. Surrounded by fierce competition from rivals like the hot-headed striker Shinji Tanaka and the cocky midfielder Kai Kuroda, Takumi’s journey is one of personal growth, grit, and relentless training. He will need to master advanced football strategies—like the "Triangle Passing System," "Quick-Tempo Transitions," and "Counter-Pressing"—to rise through the ranks. But it’s not just about winning on the field; it’s about transforming his mindset, overcoming self-doubt, and discovering what it truly means to lead from the heart. From the first whistle to the final goal, Takumi must learn that being a hero doesn’t always mean scoring the winning goal—it’s about creating the opportunities, setting the pace, and most importantly, never giving up. Will Takumi become the midfield maestro he dreams of? Or will he falter in the face of overwhelming odds? The beautiful game isn’t just about skill—it’s about heart.

You know that one guy in every story? The one nobody notices, nobody remembers, and nobody cares about? Yeah. That’s me. Or at least, that’s who I am now. My name was Kang Jin-ho, I am a loser punching bag in my old world. I worked a dead-end job, got screwed over by my coworkers, and died like a joke trying to save someone from a damn truck. But instead of disappearing into oblivion, I woke up in a world I knew all too well: Battleborn Academy, the setting of the brutal SSS+ difficulty novel I once read. Sounds cool, right? Wrong. I wasn’t reborn as the hero. I wasn’t even the villain. I got stuck as a nameless extra, weak, sickly, and about as important to the story as a piece of background furniture. But life has a twisted sense of humor, because even if this world’s hell, I’ve got one advantage: I know everything about it. The plot twists. The hidden quests. The betrayals. And most importantly, the things nobody else knows are the broken pieces of power lurking beneath the surface. It starts with my Status Window, the kind you’d find in a game, except my stats are garbage. But there’s one thing it doesn’t mention: my cheat ability, Devourer. Kill monsters and absorb their powers. Sounds simple, right? Except nothing in this world is simple. Every step toward power costs me my sanity, my humanity, maybe even my soul. Now I’m stuck at Battleborn Academy, surrounded by heroes and monsters in disguise. There’s Lee Yuna, the cold genius who hates my guts but might just be the most dangerous person here. There’s Jang Hyuk-rin, a charismatic prodigy with a tragic past and plans that’ll burn the world down. And don’t even get me started on the shadowy puppeteer pulling the strings behind it all. I’ve got to survive, manipulate the plot, and stay two steps ahead of a world that’s designed to kill me. Because if there’s one thing I learned the hard way, it’s this: second chances don’t come free. I’m not the hero of this story. But I’ll be damned if I die a background character again.

Is the universe real? Is the earth real? Is everything around us real? Are we... real? Are we... truly alive? Every evening, the setting sun will set in the west. Just as every morning, the rising sun will rise in the east. Time always flows towards the future minute by minute, and what we experience will always become history minute by minute. ... Whether we are willing or not, everything in life, on the earth, and in the universe will always evolve towards the future regularly. But is the future an unknown evolution or has it already been set? Are people or things just moving along the set path? Even, at the moment when the big bang of the universe started from a singularity 13.8 billion years ago, was its ending already doomed? ... Seeing is believing. Perhaps the so-called truth in front of us is just a pre-set truth! Every minute and every second may just be countless fixed time-space slices, just spliced together under the operation of a pre-set logic. We, every person, every thing, or perhaps just countless code fragments under this extremely complex grand logic...
