Hayama Marin

The Siren's Lighthouse Witch Neria, a spirited and rebellious Tempest Siren, chafes under the rigid traditions of Thalassira, her bioluminescent coral city. Taught that the surface world is corrupt and witches are their ancient enemies, she secretly yearns for a life beyond the ocean's depths. Her people, the Sirens of Tempest, are afflicted by a mysterious curse: a loss of voice and vibrant color whenever they dare to love a witch, a curse mistakenly believed to be caused by such forbidden unions. Perched atop a storm-battered cliff, Elira, a reclusive witch, guards a lighthouse that is secretly a nexus between the spiritual and marine worlds. Exiled by her coven for dabbling in forbidden sea magic, she seeks redemption and answers to the growing blight affecting both her powers and the surrounding waters. Haunted by premonitions and able to perceive the sea's memories, Elira is a solitary soul, hiding a warm heart beneath a sarcastic exterior. Their worlds collide when Neria, drawn by an irresistible pull, ventures to Elira's lighthouse. Despite centuries of animosity and the looming threat of the curse, an undeniable connection sparks between the siren and the witch. As their love deepens, the sea grows more violent, and their powers begin to intertwine—Neria's emotional song and water control amplifying Elira's elemental magic, and Elira's touch allowing Neria to glimpse the sea's forgotten memories. Yet, this very union seems to accelerate the curse, threatening to steal their voices and powers. Unbeknownst to their warring peoples, an ancient, misinterpreted prophecy foretells: "When the ocean's voice loves the lighthouse's light, the world's wound shall heal." Their forbidden love is not the cause of the curse, but the only key to breaking it—a magical barrier designed to keep their worlds apart. As they navigate their dangerous affection, battling both external prejudice and internal fears, Neria and Elira must unravel the true history of the curse. Their journey will challenge not only their societies' deep-seated hatred but also their own identities, proving that true love transcends all boundaries—species, tradition, and the very fabric of magic itself. Their union promises to usher in a new era of understanding, liberating not just themselves, but the sea and the coast from the shackles of ignorance.

Lin Han was once a humble game designer, responsible for crafting a sprawling online game centered around civilization development. The game’s core concept was simple yet ambitious: each player assumes the role of a god-like creator, starting with a lone planet to nurture and evolve civilizations from the ground up. One day, in a bizarre twist of fate, Lin Han finds himself mysteriously transported into the very world he designed—a living, breathing universe governed by the rules he once wrote. But instead of following the traditional path of slow, steady evolution like most players, Lin Han chooses an unorthodox and wild strategy: he decides to develop a monster civilization. While other players painstakingly cultivate primitive cells, Lin Han’s creation rapidly evolves through parasitism, devouring its own kind to trigger extreme mutations. It spreads like wildfire, infecting entire oceans and causing a mass mutation of marine life. As his monstrous creation gains intelligence and begins to understand civilization itself, Lin Han reaps massive rewards, earning tens of thousands of Authority Points — the currency of power in this universe. His creation doesn’t stop there; it ruthlessly conquers ten other players’ planets, accumulating even more power and establishing dominance over an entire star system. When reporters ask how he plans to manage the ten civilizations under his control, Lin Han delivers a chilling response: “I will turn them all into monster civilizations.” His declaration shocks the galaxy, heralding a new era where monstrous evolution threatens to upend the very foundations of civilization.

Malam perkotaan selalu penuh dengan cahaya yang memukau terpancar dari gedung-gedung pencakar langit, namun tidak dengan mata Revan, redup bagaikan langit saat itu. Tertutup dengan awan tebal yang tidak bisa menunjukan terangnya. “Aku gagal ... “ Begitu gumam Revan, sambil termangu memikirkan masa depan yang dia rasa layak ditertawakan oleh realita. Hari ini mungkin hari yang bersejarah bagi Revan, bukan karena hal lain melainkan dia ditinggalkan oleh orang yang tidak pernah dia duga, Michele. Michele dan Revan sudah saling mengenal dari awal perkuliahan yang kemudian mereka saling tertarik satu sama lain dan menjalin hubungan sampai malam kemarin sebelum Michele memutuskan untuk mengakhiri semuanya. Hubungan mereka sudah memasuki tahun ke 9, namun berakhir karena Revan tidak bisa membuktikan menjadi orang yang dapat menjamin kepastian hubungan dan masa depan bersama Michele. Penyesalan selalu menjadi hal pahit yang tidak pernah memandang apapun, dan ini merupakan penyesalan terbesar Revan dalam hidupnya. Bukan karena Michele meninggalkan dia, melainkan karena kenapa dia menjadi seorang pecundang seperti sekarang ini. Entah dari kapan, Revan telah menjadi orang yang dia tidak duga sama sekali. Terjebak dalam pemikiran cepat menjadi kaya sehingga sering terjurumus dalam investasi bodong yang menawarkan keuntungan berkali lipat. Dia berjudi dengan masa depannya sendiri. Emosi yang sering meledak karena gagal kerap kali dilampiaskan kepada orang terdekatnya, Michele. Padahal Michele selalu ada untuk menenangkan Revan, bahkan membantu dalam memberi modal karena dia begitu percaya bahwa Revan akan sukses suatu saat nanti. Revan lupa bahwa tidak semua orang bisa beruntung dengan modal kecil untuk mendapatkan keuntungan yang dapat dinikmati seumur hidup. Dia lupa bahwa, dengan hanya membaca artikel online dan buku tentang investasi hampir mustahil bisa membuat dia kaya tanpa bekerja. Bukan berarti hal itu tidak mungkin terjadi, tapi hal itu sangat kecil kemungkinannya untuk terjadi dan Revan merupakan salah satu ketidakmungkinan itu. Revan merasa gagal, dengan umur yang memasuki 30 tahun dia tidak bisa memberikan sebuah jaminan bagi dirinya apalagi Michele. Dia tidak pernah sekalipun menyalahkan Michele, dia hanya merasa bahwa kenapa dia sangat terlambat untuk sadar yang berujung mengecewakan orang terdekatnya. “Andai semuanya bisa terulang kembali” Hanya itu yang bisa Revan eluhkan sebelum akhirnya dia menutup mata dalam tidurnya. --- “Revan, Revan, Bangun siap-siap Sekolah! Jangan sampai terlambat!” Suara yang familiar yang tiba-tiba mengagetkan Revan. “Apa yang terjadi?” Gumam Revan tak percaya terhadap kondisi yang dia alami sekarang. Rasa tidak percaya dan rasa mau percaya bercampur aduk. Tidak percaya karena hal ini tidak mungkin terjadi, mau percaya karena Revan berharap hal ini benar-benar terjadi. “[suara pintu terbuka] Revan! Ehh, kamu sudah bangun ternyata? Sana cepat mandi! Papamu sudah siap-siap untuk pergi ke kantor, sekalian ngantar kamu ke sekolah” Ujar ibu Revan yang sekaligus menyadarkan revan dari lamunannya. “[sambil melihat sekililingnya] Apa yang terjadi?” Revan mendapati hp yang dia pakai adalah HP sewaktu dia SMA Kelas 1, Nokia X2. Entah apa yang terjadi, sambil dia tidak percaya dengan keadaan ini namun yang pasti, dia kembali ke 15 tahun yang lalu, Tahun 2010 di umur dia yang ke-15.

The terrorists seek destruction. As Marine soldiers, our duty is clear: protect our people. But as human beings, we cannot ignore the instinct to save the innocent. In this brutal war, we’ve lost countless lives—our comrades, our brothers. Lives were taken not by our choice, but because of orders we had no choice but to follow. Now, we stand at a crossroads: vengeance burns in our hearts as we long to hunt down those who killed our brothers. But there is a greater cost—if we strike, innocent lives will be lost in the crossfire. Caught between duty and humanity, we find ourselves at the mercy of a war we never wanted. We did not choose this path. We never wanted to become the very thing we fight against. But in this war, protecting our people means sacrificing our names, our honor, and our humanity. We are forced to live with the consequences of a war that never asks if we’re ready to pay the price. In the end, the line between hero and villain becomes impossible to see.

Five years before Monkey D. Luffy sets sail to become the King of the Pirates, another name stirs the seas with fear and ambition. Born on the brutal Noctis Island, Raizen D. Crow witnessed firsthand the cruelty of a lawless world. While others dreamed of freedom, Raizen dreamed of domination. Armed with the forbidden Kuro Kuro no Mi — granting him the power to control living darkness — he vowed to unite the seas under a single iron rule.

His mission is clear: seize the ancient weapons, crush the chaotic pirate era, and forge an empire where peace is enforced by absolute power. As he clashes with rising heroes, secret government agents, and even future legends like a young Crocodile, Raizen’s ambition casts a long shadow across the seas — one that even the World Government cannot ignore. But far away, a boy with a straw hat is preparing to set sail… and the age of dreams is about to challenge the age of control. Before the dawn of a new era... there was a storm.
