Chayil, suffocating from a life of luxury with no freedom, suddenly gets yanked into a chaotic mess. He’s dropped into a magical world where everything - power, rank, and worth—is tied to the color of the Status System. Thanks to a god’s botched summoning, Chayil is handed the worst I.D. possible: A Verdant. Verdants are cursed. They’re auctioned off, forced into brutal labor, starved, and treated like filth. Some are bought for cruel amusement—forced to fight for their lives, tortured in experiments, or abused by nobles who see them as less than human. But Chayil didn’t mope around. To him, it is a challenge. With his sharp mind and raw strength, he’s ready to tear down this world’s twisted rules, rise through the ranks, and turn the system upside down, all while leading the other Verdants to do the same. Worst I.D. in the world? Doesn’t matter. He’s going to make it work, and he’s going to make them regret ever underestimating them.

In the heart of the northern realm of Eldora lies Whisperwood, a magical forest thriving under the watchful gaze of the Verdant King, a benevolent spirit with the head of a stag and the body of a human. However, a shadow looms over the nearby Elven Kingdom of Sindrah as a virulent plague sweeps through, twisting beauty into decay and death. Queen Maeve, desperate to save her people, becomes fixated on the Everbloom, a rumored magical flower hidden within Whisperwood with immense healing power. Althaea, a young elf and Guardian of the northern part of the realm, sworn to protect its balance, hears whispers of the Everbloom. Deeply attuned to the forest, she understands the elves' desperation but knows harvesting the Everbloom would disrupt Whisperwood's delicate balance. Althaea's worst fears come true when Maeve sends elite Shadow Elves to secure the Everbloom. Torn between duty and her connection to the forest, Althaea tries to stop them but is forced to watch in horror as Whisperwood is ravaged. The essence of the Verdant King fractures under despair and rage, giving rise to the Cinderheart, a twisted reflection fueled by vengeance. The Cinderheart unleashes destruction upon Sindrah, mirroring the devastation of Whisperwood. Althaea realizes the Verdant King resides within the Cinderheart and knows she must act. She journeys to the realm of Vasperia to seek help from her powerful friend, Kael—who is also a guardian, hoping to sever the darkness and restore balance to Whisperwood. Can Althaea succeed before the Cinderheart's wrath consumes everything, or will Sindrah become a desolate wasteland haunted by a fallen spirit's echoes?

He was being clung to by a little girl who then even followed him home! Excerpt: "Are you a wolf? Biting so hard like that! Haven't you ever heard of repaying kindness with kindness?" Umee completely ignored the anger of the person in front of her and only asked: “So, do you want to keep a wolf?” “No! I like dogs, I like cats!” Umee blinked innocently: “Meow.” “Woof!” “…” At that moment, the old man realized something was off. His eyes widened. “But I’m not going to take you in! I don’t have extra food or resources, and we’re not even related in any way!” Umee fell silent. She pondered for a moment, and then suddenly called out: “Grandpa.” “I don’t have a son.” Umee paused to think again. “Grandpa on my mom’s side.” “I don’t have a daughter.” Umee pondered once more. “Daddy.” “I don’t have kids! I’m not even married!” The old man felt like he was losing his mind. Why was he standing here—under a heavy downpour—arguing with this clearly insane person?

He remembered with a tinge of melancholy, 'This is my purpose.' Author's note: High fantasy setting, with a heavy emphasis on action, army tactics, political schemes and world building.
