The Solitary Berserker's ReturnPending

On August 14th, 2024, the world changed. A mysterious message appeared in every human mind: [You have been chosen. The Tutorial is about to commence.] [PARTICIPATE] / [REFUSE] 98% refused. 2% chose to enter the Tutorial. They were thrown into The Spire of Beginnings—a lonely, brutal, solo dungeon where death meant Regression, but progress was eternal. Time flowed 300 times faster inside. One week outside was nearly six years within. Kenji Tanaka, a reclusive university student and top-ranked MMO player, chose [PARTICIPATE] without hesitation. To him, it wasn’t a threat—it was the ultimate challenge. He specialized in raw Strength and Vitality, choosing the Berserker path: a build that thrived on pain, embraced risk, and turned suffering into power. Then he survived. And survived. And kept surviving. 295 years alone. No allies. No end in sight. No way out but death. He climbed over 600 floors, reached Level 786, and became a living weapon—until he finally let himself die. And woke up home. Only 360 days had passed on Earth. The world is unrecognizable. Cities lie in ruin. Dungeons break reality. Humanity now clings to survival, ruled by “Returners”—those who died in the Spire and came back stronger. The most powerful among them? Around Level 120. Kenji is Level 786. A legend no one knows exists. A god in the body of a boy. Broken. Traumatized. Utterly alone. His only goal? Find his family. Protect them. End the threats that destroyed the world—or become one himself.

OutCasted

Shinji Tsukishima "Discipline meets desperation." A 19-year-old Japanese-Filipino cadet, Shinji was in his second year at a military college in Atlanta when the Flu outbreak turned the world into chaos. Trained in tactics and survival, he lost contact with his family in Osaka. With dual hatchets in hand and a relentless drive, Shinji fights not just to survive—but to prove he was ready for war before it began. --- Heidi Volnova "From saving lives to taking them." A recent nursing graduate from Russia, Heidi moved to Canada for a medical internship just two weeks before the world fell apart. Calm under pressure and well-versed in emergency procedures, she quickly adapted to survival. With an AK-47 and a medic’s focus, she balances empathy and efficiency like a field surgeon in a war zone. --- Clyde Rourke "He lost the world, not the fight." A seasoned NYPD officer, Clyde was the definition of grit. He sent his wife and two children on a vacation to the Philippines just days before the Flu swept the States. With no way to reach them, he’s driven by hope and hardened by loss. Twin machetes now act as his badge and baton in a lawless world. --- Miko Tanaka "Accountant by plan, survivor by force." Miko, an 18-year-old full-blooded Japanese freshman studying accountancy in New Jersey, had a simple dream—graduate, get a job, and return to Tokyo. That dream died with society. Resourceful and surprisingly precise, she crafted a homemade bow and wields a rusted katana she found in a collector’s house. She may be quiet, but she’s deadlier than she looks. --- Together, they are the OutCasted—strangers with nothing in common except their will to survive.

Odyssey of Eight

They lived separate lives. They carried different scars. And yet… fate led them to the same place — a forest beyond time, untouched by the world they knew. ▪️ Hana Yamamoto — a student prodigy with a soul meant to dance. ▪️ Lee Joon — a K-pop idol adored by millions but drowning beneath perfection. ▪️ Park Soojin — a young CEO with a legacy built on betrayal. ▪️ Wang Xuan — a billionaire’s spoiled son drowning in silence and parties. ▪️ Vihaan Malhotra — a born artist, bound by his father’s expectations. ▪️ Meera Chauhan — a business-minded girl raised in the shadow of loss. ▪️ Lina Chen — a ruthless woman who built an empire, but never found peace. ▪️ Hiroshi Tanaka — a doctor’s son passionate about cooking, but broken by guilt. There are no roads here. No phones. No time. Just trees that breathe, soil that remembers, and the weight of memories they thought they had buried for good. They come from different worlds — each one carrying wounds deeper than the skin, regrets they never voiced, and choices they can’t undo. And yet, they wake up in the same place. A forest unlike anything they’ve known — untouched by the world, but pulsing with something ancient. Rooted in Indian tradition, the forest doesn’t just offer shelter. It offers confrontation. Yoga. Meditation. Martial arts. Ancient wisdom passed through whispers and wind. These are no longer traditions. They’re survival. The eight begin a journey not just through the forest — but through themselves. Friendships will form in silence. Rivalries will spark in shadows. And love may bloom — even in the most unlikely hearts. But not all of them are ready to heal. Not all of them want to be saved. This is not a dream. This is not redemption. This is the Odyssey of Eight.
