Seventeen-year-old Yotsuba Emi seems to have it all: wealth, beauty, intelligence, and a bright future as the heiress to her family’s business empire. But her charmed life is shattered when she is suddenly pulled into a deadly phenomenon known as The Maze of Shadows. The Maze is a nightmarish series of ever-changing dungeons where survival is the only rule. Ghosts, vampires, ghouls, and monsters lurk in every corner, and the only way to escape is to complete the dungeon’s tasks before the timer runs out. Failure means death, and survival often demands sacrifices Emi never imagined making. Each dungeon is more dangerous than the last, and the people trapped with Emi—strangers, criminals, even children—rarely survive long enough to reach the next level. Yet, she can’t escape the Maze’s grasp. Every victory only earns her a temporary reprieve before she is thrown into the next, deadlier trial. As Emi fights to survive, she discovers fragments of the Maze’s dark secrets. What is the purpose of these cruel games? Who—or what—created the Maze? And most importantly, can it ever be destroyed? With her sharp mind, unwavering determination, and a growing arsenal of skills purchased with the coins she earns, Emi is determined to find answers. But in the Maze of Shadows, survival comes at a cost—and the price may be more than she’s willing to pay. This novel is a work of fiction.

The King of Hell, me—Lucifer—renowned for my cold-heartedness and fearlessness. Yet, a carefully orchestrated conspiracy had me cast out of Hell, reincarnated as a mere mortal in a bustling modern city.

There were even hopping vampires?! Every night felt like an extreme survival challenge, and I, the once-mighty ruler of Hell, was reduced to trembling in fear, clutching a peachwood sword just to get by. To survive, I had no choice but to team up with a money-grubbing Taoist priest, catching ghosts, exorcising spirits, and making side income. To make matters worse, I encountered a mysterious female ghost who wasn’t just stunningly beautiful—she seemed to know a secret I refused to admit. And as the demons of Hell began their relentless pursuit, I realized this wasn’t just some farcical nightmare—this was a battle where the fates of the Eastern Underworld and Hell itself were entwined. And me? The ghost-fearing King of Hell? Turns out, I’m the last hope.

Unmoved by her defiance, Jiang Ting exerts his dominance, weaving a web of pressure, coercion, and calculated manipulation. But as sparks of defiance and dominance clash, an unexpected and forbidden emotion ignites between them, drawing them ever closer to a line neither thought they'd cross.

Together, they walk a tightrope over a chasm of power, destiny, and fate.
