After obtaining the Mech Designer System, Ves aims to create the greatest mechs in the galaxy! In the far future, the galactic human civilization has entered the Age of Mechs. The countless lesser powers of humanity have come to adopt mechs as their main weapons of war. Only a small number of humans have the right genetic aptitude to pilot these destructive war machines the size of buildings. Born to a military family in the edge of the galaxy, Ves Larkinson is one of the many people who lacks the talent to earn glory in battle. Instead, he became a mech designer.

His mechs based on the principles of life quickly allows him to rise to prominence. Powerful and highly compatible with mech pilots, his products have the potential to take the market by storm. However, success does not come easily, and countless challenges bar his ability to sell his mechs to a market eager for innovation! With the sins of the human race in the galactic arena slowly catching up, Ves must navigate the perils of the ultra-competitive mech market and maintain control over his growing organization of misfits.

On a delightful afternoon, a young doctor is successfully kidnapped by the strangest of entities, and after a bizarre experiment goes well, he is reborn as Bonnie — a little boy with vivid features and a touch that can purify and heal all life. As a bonus, he is stripped of the memories he held ever-so-dearly during his humble life within the plague-ridden capital of Kingdom Nadiria, and he is granted the opportunity to nearly lose his life multiple times to the most devilish of creatures, run into characters as magical and amnesiac as him, and stumble upon beings that do not and should not belong in this realm. Bonnie's Touch: Seek his hand, and ye shall find salvation.

Ves Larkinson, der aus einer Militärfamilie am Rande der Galaxis stammt, ist einer der vielen Menschen, denen das Talent fehlt, sich in der Schlacht Ruhm zu verdienen. Stattdessen wurde er Mech-Konstrukteur. Mit Hilfe seines verschwundenen Vaters ist Ves in den Besitz des geheimnisvollen Mech-Designer-Systems gelangt, mit dem er in der Galaxie und darüber hinaus aufsteigen kann. Seine Mechs, die auf den Prinzipien des Lebens basieren, ermöglichen ihm einen schnellen Aufstieg. Seine leistungsstarken und mit Mech-Piloten bestens kompatiblen Produkte haben das Potenzial, den Markt im Sturm zu erobern. Doch der Erfolg stellt sich nicht von selbst ein, und unzählige Herausforderungen erschweren es ihm, seine Mechs auf einem Markt zu verkaufen, der nach Innovationen lechzt! Während die Sünden der menschlichen Rasse in der galaktischen Arena langsam aufholen, muss Ves die Gefahren des ultrakompetitiven Mech-Marktes meistern und die Kontrolle über seine wachsende Organisation von Außenseitern behalten. Dies ist das goldene Zeitalter der Mechs. Es ist das goldene Zeitalter der Menschheit. Die Frage ist nur, ob es von Dauer sein wird.

Does the supernatural world exist? Are Vampires real? or is it a myth? a legend? or an imagination? Over 7000 years ago, Vampires ruled the world and humans. They were seen as gods sent to devour mankind and rid them of their freedom. Humans were nothing but food and a play thing to them. This went on for years, with the humans population decimating rapidly. It continued like this, until, King Henry of Slovakia came into power. Wanting peace in his reign, he decided to come into an agreement with the rulers of the Vampires. The treaty was drawn; the pact was forged and it became a law all kings after him were to abide by. After every 100 years, on the day of the blood moon, princesses born to the Slovakian kingdom would be given to the Vampires prince to be his bride. Although this sounded as a very kind offer to the humans, only the princesses given out understood the true meaning of the pact. It was a death sentence. Once they sign the scroll, their fates are sealed and death is inevitable. Being a vampire bride is never a bed of roses for them because it means that they'd be preys to the Vampires, either as food or slaves and moreover, they won't be recognised as brides of the prince since they are humans, a different creature. After civilization kicked in, the pact was deactivated and the humans forgot about it. Only top officials knew but the mass didn't. To calm raging vampires, the government along with some royals would take a few girls and hand them over as sacrifice. But a new leader of the Vampires arose, a more cold one who wouldn't take just 'a few girls'. He wants his bride and would stop at nothing to get her, if it means destroying the human population. ___________________________________ Bella Rodriguez, an aspiring young lady who at the age of 17 became the bread winner of her family after her parents demise.
