Watching Hannibal

When the world ended, it wasn’t with a bang — but with silence. In one brutal instant, all of humanity was wiped out, leaving behind only a single survivor from each country — each forced to play a merciless game to decide who deserves to live. Thrown into an endless nightmare of forests crawling with beasts, deadly traps, and shifting battlegrounds, these last survivors must clear one hundred lethal levels to win back their right to exist. Fail — and their entire nation vanishes with them. Among them is Aarav — an ordinary boy with no heroic past and no grand ambition, only a desperate will to survive. But as the trials grow crueler, Aarav begins to discover something buried deep within himself: a power that moves his body faster than thought — a strange instinct that awakens when he’s standing on the edge of death. Monsters and twisted creatures lurk in the dark. Other survivors will betray without hesitation. And far above, someone — or something — is watching, always watching, waiting for the last one standing. One hundred levels. One chance to live. One wrong move and it’s over. Survive the Levels — or die trying. ...

The world moves forward, second by second. But for some, time listens. Michael has no past he’s willing to speak of, and no name etched in legacy. Yet deep within him stirs a power older than war and quieter than death—the ability to hold the world still while it spins in madness. Cast through a system that treats the broken like burdens. Where others dream of being chosen, he dreams of peace. But in a world ruled by power, silence is often mistaken for weakness—and monsters often wear smiles. As unrest stirs outside the orphanage walls and deeper truths about the nature of power begin to surface, Michael will have to choose: remain the quiet boy who watches from the margins, or become something more—something unspoken and unstoppable. He doesn’t want to be a hero. But time has a cruel sense of irony.

Justice died in the war. He came back to dig it up. Presumed dead in World War II, Sergeant Elias Krieg was a ghost—until the world’s corruption dragged him back. Revived by an experimental serum, twisted by violence, and cursed with an undying hunger, he walks the streets of modern New York as a pale wraith in a torn cloak and featureless mask. They call him HeartEater—a brutal, silent vigilante who doesn’t bring criminals to justice. He devours it. Targeting the worst of humanity—murderers, traffickers, predators—he rips out their still-beating hearts and disappears into the night. But beneath the monster is a soldier who once stood for something. He protects children with a quiet tenderness. He offers mercy to the misguided. And he never forgets a promise. As powerful enemies begin to emerge—greedy syndicates, slothful manipulators, and sins made flesh—HeartEater must face the truth: justice alone isn’t enough. The world demands vengeance. And he’s ready to deliver it. Blood will flow. The hearts of monsters will beat no more.
