Synduality Ascension of a Dying Aspirant

A strange illness had affected humanity that caused them to succumb to despair and violence, slowly draining their life force until they die and their corpses morphed into murderous and hungry creatures known as hellspawns, plunging the world into chaos and destruction. Meanwhile, a so-called labyrinth of trials that had descended to the world along with the hellspawn disease was conquered by humans and allowed them to awakened their innate abilities in order to fight back against the monsters that threatened to end the world. 20 years later, Lloyd Claudel, who had just turn fifteen years old, had a wishful dream of living a comfortable and carefree life without worrying about food. Having lost his mother at an early age in the midst of chaos that caused a riot among the civilians due to shortage of food supply, life was a hard struggle for him. He was rescued by an aspirant from the clutches of his father who had turned into a hellspawn later after his mother's death, which gave him a second chance to live, but his luck ran out soon enough as his remaining resources were slowly being depleted to the point it threatened his survival for one more day as he had no job and no one to rely on. Having no choice left but to heed the advice of his savior, he ended up bribing a guard for a recommendation to enter the academy and participated in the trials ceremony secretly that was supposed to be only for the rich and capable people, only to get entangled with horrible fate once more after awakening a non-combat innate ability and even had almost crossed the boundary between life and death inside the trials. Surprisingly, he was one of the very few people who had awakened another soul tree system, making him unique and giving and allowing him to grow stronger and faster than others. Will he be able to turn the tides of fate this time and survive the ruthless ordeals of the trials or would he succumb to death this time? Follow Lloyd as he embarks in his struggles to fulfill his goals and ambitions.

Great War On Valentine Land

Plot Summary: In a vast world divided by supernatural forces, three kingdoms have thrived for centuries, each sealed off from them with barrier by ancient laws created by a cosmic entity. The Nation of Humans, ruled by the wise but formidable King Lucus, has remained isolated for more than two hundred years. Meanwhile, the Nation of Vampires, led by the enigmatic and ruthless Lord Valentine, has stood untouched for over three centuries. And in a dimension between realms lies the Nether World, home to the demonic Nation of Demons, commanded by the fearsome Demon King Vulcan. Each kingdom is bound by a strict decree: no contact or passage between worlds. Only the gods and ancient forces know why these realms are held apart. But beneath the surface, there is a looming tension: the prophecy of a Great War of Blood, a cataclysmic battle for the power of the God of Justice, meant to restore balance between nations. This war, which erupts every 2,000 years, grants control over the forces of the universe: fire, water, thunder, dark energy, nature, and more. Main Character: The story follows Leo de Grace, a young man born in the Human Nation with no magic—a rarity in a world where nearly everyone possesses mystical abilities. After being abandoned by his parents, Leo was raised by his caring aunt, Luna de Grace, a member of a prestigious family. Though lacking in magic, Leo displays extraordinary intellect and physical strength, making him unique among his peers and earning him great respect despite his differences. When Leo reaches the age to attend the prestigious Lucus University of Knowledge, his life takes an unexpected turn. A mysterious incident disrupts the Freshers’ Ceremony, leading him to become the first human ever to attend the Vampire University in Lord Valentine’s kingdom. The Vampire Nation and the Mystery: In the Vampire Nation, Leo must confront his own limits, learning to survive in a society far different from his own. Here, he encounters powerful beings, including mysterious vampires who are wary of his presence. Though he lacks magic, Leo’s resilience, intelligence, and unexpected physical prowess attract both respect and suspicion. The Vampire Nation is steeped in lore and mystery, and Leo finds himself drawn to ancient stories of the God of Justice, the entity whose power could potentially end or ignite another Great War of Blood. The War for Justice’s Power: As the days pass, rumors of the Great War grow stronger. Tensions between humans, vampires, and demons increase as each kingdom learns of the approaching battle for the power to claim Justice’s gifts. While Leo grapples with his place in a world divided by magic and bloodlines, he discovers a hidden destiny that intertwines with the upcoming war. Leo's Journey and the Call of Destiny: Through trials of strength, wisdom, and courage, Leo must navigate through the politics of the Vampire Nation and form alliances with vampires, humans, and possibly demons. As he grows, he uncovers hidden potential within himself, a power he never knew existed. This power could be the key to uniting the three realms or might trigger the Great War of Blood. Themes and Key Elements: Divided Kingdoms: The tension and isolation between humans, vampires, and demons, mirroring real-world divisions. Power and Balance: The search for the God of Justice’s power, representing the quest for balance among all forces. War and Unity: The potential of the Great War of Blood to either tear apart or unite these realms, and the sacrifices necessary for peace. Self-Discovery: Leo’s journey to find strength within himself, beyond magical power, and his quest to determine his place in a world that sees him as an outcast. Leo’s fate is intertwined with that of all three nations, and as he stands on the brink of the Great War of Blood, he must decide not only what kind of man he will become, but what kind of world he wants to create.

My Class is... CHEF?!

Toki Kaguyama, a 20-year-old high school graduate stuck in a dead-end job, finds his life turned upside down when the company he works for teeters on the edge of bankruptcy. Struggling with finances and trapped in a seemingly endless cycle of stress, Toki decides to blow off steam with a morning jog. Little does he know, that simple jog would be his last in the world he knows. Mid-stride, Toki is suddenly whisked away to another world, joining three other unwitting heroes summoned by the kingdom to face a deadly task: to conquer the 500-floor Great Dungeon to prevent waves of monstrous creatures from overwhelming the kingdom each month. Blessed with special classes, each hero is given a role to help in the kingdom’s desperate fight for survival. One becomes a Sword Saint, another an Archer, and the third a Sorcerer. Toki, however, finds himself bestowed with a class that causes snickers and disbelief at the ceremonial blessing: Chef. Shocked and ridiculed, Toki is the target of mockery from both his fellow heroes and the kingdom’s nobility, who see his culinary class as a joke compared to the combat-ready classes of the other heroes. Humiliated and isolated, Toki decides to forge his own path instead of sticking with his disparaging companions. With no clear direction but a fierce determination to prove his worth, Toki’s first goal is simple: make friends who see him for who he is. As he sets off on his journey, he discovers that there’s more to the Chef class than meets the eye—and that it may hold the key to unique powers and abilities no one ever expected. Armed with his magic pan "Pan-demonium", a dash of defiance, and a hunger for both friendship and adventure, Toki is ready to take on the challenges of this new world, one dish at a time.... (yeah... ok... that kinda sucked.)
