Rafael is a final-year student at Royal Valtara Academy. For him, nothing is more important than his sister's happiness. By a twist of luck, he discovers that he is one of Solomon's possible heirs, the lord of Purgatory.

In the shadowed space between life and death lies Purgatory aka the second realm, a hidden realm that mirrors our world in every detail—except for one crucial difference: it’s completely devoid of life. This realm is accessible to both the living and the dead, but only a select few humans, called PURGERS, possess the ability to enter it through deep sleep. The Second Realm, synchronized with the primary world, updates every 24 hours at precisely 21:08, reflecting the primary realm. At the helm of this secret order is Isaac Mulder, the revered protector of the Primary Realm. Pushing into his seventies, Isaac is the last of his lineage and mentor/role model to nearly every Purger alive today and he is on a quest to find a worthy successor. With his retirement looming, Isaac has his eyes on two candidates: Jenin and Megan Horta, a power couple with an impressive success rate in their purging missions. However, fate takes an unexpected turn when Isaac encounters an unknown Purger's unique energy. Intrigued and determined, Isaac marks this mysterious individual with his own energy, setting off on a mission to track down this potential new hope.

A figure was imprisoned in a blazing purgatory. The person’s body was vague and foggy, and the only thing that stood out was the duo of chains that encircled the figure’s arms and suspended the person in the air. The foggy figure had suffered this infernal purgatory for an eternity…but today was not like any other day. The figure gradually raised its head and spoke, maybe for the first time in an eon. “THE MOMENT HAS ARRIVED. THE SEALS HAVE DIMINISHED ENOUGH FOR ME TO ACCESS SOME OF MY POWER.” The figure whispered a few words under its breath. The instant the figure said the last word, the purgatory began to tremble. “THEY HAVE DEFINITELY NOTICED IT BY NOW BUT IT’S TOO LATE, THEY CAN’T STOP IT NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO.” After a moment the figure spoke again. “I WONDER WHO THE ELEVEN THAT WILL ACQUIRE MY POWER ARE. WELL IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE, NOW THAT THE POWER HAS BEEN SENT NOTHING CAN STOP ME FROM ESCAPING THIS PLACE.” The figure then slowly closed its eyes. “IT’S JUST A MATTER OF TIME.” ______________ The release rate will reduce for a while as I'll be going back to rewrite and improve the beginning chapters.

They were renowned streamers and visionary entrepreneurs who had used their combined talents to build and develop their own line of successful VR games. Their entrepreneurial ventures had propelled them to fame and fortune, leaving them with an enviable lifestyle that most could only dream of. It was this very lifestyle that led to their exclusive access to "DuskHaven: Virtual Odyssey Special Deluxe Edition" for free.

They had even brokered a lucrative deal with ZenithCorp International, earning them an hourly wage to play the game while streaming their adventures to their massive fanbase.

Now, in a race against time and destiny, they must navigate the sprawling labyrinth of "DuskHaven," forge alliances with fellow trapped players, and uncover the secrets shrouding ZenithCorp International and its enigmatic CEO, Evelyn Sinclair. Their wealth and fame may have granted them access to the game, but survival in this digital realm will depend on their gaming prowess, their ingenuity, and the strength of their unbreakable friendship.

Their goal: reach the 200th floor of the Aegis Spire, a colossal dungeon within "DuskHaven," and defeat its formidable Boss. The game's realism goes beyond anything they could have ever imagined, revealing a world of cruelty and violence that constantly tests their mettle. They fight for survival and freedom, and make a name for themselves in the virtual world as "Takamori" and "Shisuzuki."

They say life can easily leave with the flick of a switch or with just a snap of the fingers. Well... That was the case for a certain young individual. Meet Soren, a 16-year old boy, who loves the sea ever since he could remember himself. He loved reading about the sea, he loved the creatures that lived in the sea, heck he even wanted to be born as a fish in the sea at some point. One day, he gets himself into an accident where it costs him his life and of course, instead of going through the normal circle of purgatory and reincarnation, he instead breaks through that circle and gets himself into another circle in another world. Through that, he gets to reincarnate himself into what he wanted, but then he realises that instead of being a fish like he wanted, he was turned into a merman (basically a male version of a mermaid) and now he has to live like this. Of course he doesn't feel dejected, instead he feels excited, but in the future he will realise that being a merman isn't as easy as he might have thought. An original novel.

"We all die eventually, that's when we have to see what lays beyond that door at the end of our life; and how our actions in the living may affect our afterlife." After an early death, a young man finds himself in purgatory. Being greeted by an angel, he was surprised to find that they were impressed by his work during his life and wanted to hire him as a case/social worker for the souls in purgatory. While it's better than hell, many are still chained by their sins during life and can fall victim to being completely corrupted by them. From fighting demon monsters to helping people who regret stealing a candy bar, someone has to help these lingering souls as they repent. Seems like some work is never done, even after death.
