At level 2, most people unlocked their first talent; those who didn’t were considered fortunate, as they had the potential to unlock rarer talents requiring higher levels. The world's most rare and powerful talents were revealed at level 5. But what if someone didn't obtain a talent? Luck quickly turned to misfortune as they were labeled talentless, with no hope of gaining a talent. Sol was one such person who was unable to unlock his talent, but he refused to give up.

In a world where chakra determines power, status, and survival, Michael is a nobody—a powerless outcast in a city where the strong walk like gods. Expelled from school, hunted by elites, and scorned by a society that worships strength, his life was never meant to matter. Until one forbidden heist changed everything. While infiltrating the vault of C.O.S.M.O.S., the elite chakra defense force, Michael stumbles upon a cursed relic: the Black Lotus. A living anomaly, it shatters his view of the world—literally. Now, he sees reality where truth glows pale and corruption oozes like ink. The Black Lotus doesn’t just grant power—it rewrites existence. Michael begins to evolve not by training or leveling up, but by absorbing the essence of his enemies. With every death around him, his vision grows sharper, his body stronger—and his flame darker.

He seeks judgment. And in a world built on injustice, all shall kneel.

May isang babae na pangarap na makapagtapos ng pag-aaral sa kolehiyo para matulungan pa ang kanyang kapatid. Siya si Mirabella Trinidad at isang Business Economics student. Matalino at masipag na babae si Mirabella kaya marami rin siyang manliligaw mula noong high school hanggang sa magkolehiyo subalit wala man lang siya natipuhan sa mga ito at prayoridad niya muna ang kanyang pag-aaral. Nagbago lamang ang lahat simula nang nagkakilala at naging kaibigan ang kanyang Math professor na si Jaxton Villareal. Ang binata mismo ang nagpakita ng interes sa kanya hanggang sa unti-unti nang nahuhulog ang loob ni Mirabella rito. Ayaw ng dalaga na magkaroon ng isyu, masira ang kanyang reputasyon at mawala sa kanya ang scholarships kaya't napagdesisyon niyang lumayo at umiwas na sa binata ng walang paalam. Lumipat ng panibagong eskwelehan si Mirabella at dito naman niya nakilala ang masungit na volleyball player na si Gian Rivera ng nasabing unibersidad. Paglipas ng mga buwan, nagkita muli sina Mirabella at Jaxton na hindi nila inaasahan. Dito mas naging masugid sa panliligaw ang binata sa kanyang dating estudyante at sa huli sinagot siya nito. Ngunit, hindi nagtagal ang kanilang relasyon nang kumalat ang isyu tungkol sa kanilang dalawa. Masakit man para kay Mirabella, nakipaghiwalay pa rin siya kay Jaxton alang-alang sa kanyang reputasyon at scholarships. Hindi sumuko sa kanya ang binata at patuloy pa rin ito na umasa subalit tumigil si Jaxton nang sabihin ni Mirabella na sa tuwing nakikita niya ito, naalala ng dalaga ang mga hindi nangyari sa kanya noon. Tumigil ang mundo ni Jaxton na dahilan para umalis siya sa kanyang propesyon at lisanin ang lugar na kasabay ng pagsimula niya ng panibagong buhay.

Sometimes the biggest prize is the heart you never meant to win. Callie Monroe had never planned to leave Bandera, Texas. Her roots ran deep in the dusty trails of her family's ranch, where she grew up wrangling horses and chasing sunsets. But when her mother was critically injured in a farming accident, the hospital bills stacked higher than hay bales. Her father—desperate and proud—demanded a sacrifice Callie couldn't make: marry the well-off widower next door, a man twice her age with a cold smile and controlling ways. With the help of a childhood friend who'd made it to the city, she packed up her boots, dreams, and barely enough cash to get by…and moved to New York. There, she found work behind the bar at a dive in Brooklyn, pouring drinks, dodging creeps, and sending every spare dollar back home. She wasn't looking for love, but when she heard of a game show that paid winners handsomely, she couldn't resist. But she sure as hell didn't expect a game show to change everything. Grayson Wolfe was a tech genius with the instincts of a wolf. He turned a teenage startup into a billion-dollar enterprise long before he was legally old enough to drink the whiskey he now sold in bulk. But when his father passed away, the old man's will came with a cruel twist: Grayson had to marry—and stay married for one full year—before he could legally inherit full control of the Wolfe fortune and family conglomerate. He didn't need love. He needed a name on paper. A bride. A loophole. In a move that shocked his board and delighted reality TV producers, Grayson entered a high-stakes televised dating show, ironically seeking a convenient partner. The premise? Win the game, win a partner…and a hefty cash prize. He didn't care about the money. He just needed someone willing to sign the damn papers. Armed with charm, wealth, and arrogance, Grayson assumed every woman would be throwing herself at him. Until the redhead in the red dress rejected him. Callie Monroe wasn't dazzled. She wasn't impressed. She hated 'controlling,' and that's what the man was; she couldn't understand why everyone wanted him. Yes, she wanted the money, but not when her pride and dignity were on the line. Grayson had never been humiliated, and so publicly; Callie intrigued and annoyed him, and somehow, he knew that their paths were still going to cross, and he would make her pay for her insolence. What happens when Grayson turns out to be Callie's boss at her new office? Their connection soon spirals into a dangerous game of desire, denial, and a deal that might cost him everything…especially his heart. He had everything… until her.

His parents abandoned him, and with them, humanity. Born with crimson eyes and a strange mark carved into his skin, Telos was feared from the moment he opened his eyes. Too quiet. Too cold. Too... different. For those reasons, and his strange body, his parents decided to abandon him on the outskirts of the city. He survived as long as possible in that hostile environment. With each passing day, his resentment toward humanity grew. He never saw anything good in them. And to grant his wish, when he turned 20, the strange mark was activated. After a tremor that shook the entire world, creatures began to emerge from the ground, trying to devour everything in their path. And he will have to survive it against all odds...

My desire is nothing compared to my hate for you.

Imagine that one day you are transported to a world that isn't just any word—rather, it's from a well-known anime that many people adore. Instead of observing from a distance, you are now involved. You get to escape reality, so you might think that it isn't all that horrible. However, the show isn't your usual shonen show. Yes, there is a power system, but it's not like you'll be able to do much because your entire existence—not just your soul—was transmigrated. As a result, you can't even use the power system, and the blue message that appears informs you that the only way to get out is to finish the show; if you don't participate in the plot, you will die. In any case, you're doomed. Oh, and the power system isn't your normal one; you have to perform tasks to gain strength. Oh no, oh no, it tells you to "figure it out" if you want to survive. Yea, it sucks.

All of Him He belonged to someone else… but every inch of him was mine. Ella never planned to fall for a man like Jayden—married, dangerous, and dripping with secrets. He was supposed to be a one-night mistake. A hidden craving. A warm body she’d forget by morning. But then he kissed her like she was air. Touched her like she was his escape. And when he made her come undone with just his mouth and a whispered “baby,” Ella knew she was in trouble. Now, his lies are unraveling. His wife is watching. And Ella? She’s drowning in him. Love, lust, and obsession collide in this forbidden, slow-burn erotic romance where danger lies in every thrust—and pleasure tastes like betrayal.
