A Different Friend

Returnee from a different world

'Five years... it's been five years already,' Shin Suho thought as he gazed at the crimson sky above. His hands were calloused now, his body scarred and hardened by battles against beasts he’d once believed could only exist in stories. Yet, no matter how much stronger he became, the ache in his chest never dulled. 'My wife probably married someone else by now. She deserves that, doesn’t she? I just disappeared without a word. No explanation, no goodbye.' The thought struck like a blade to his heart, but he swallowed it down. His parents—what of them? Were they still mourning him, or had they moved on? No, moving on wasn’t their way. They’d likely held a small funeral, their tears shed in silence, waiting for their turn to leave the world. Suho clenched his fists, his nails digging into his palms. 'And here I am, trapped in this godforsaken place.' The world he was in now—this *mystical wasteland* of monstrous creatures and untamed arcane energy—wasn’t just a nightmare. It was his reality, a twisted, merciless reality. He wasn’t one to believe in legends, not before this, but the story of the Eternal had kept him alive. A godlike being said to grant a single wish to the strongest warrior. It was his one hope. 'Return? If I can even make it out of this place, do I still have a home to go back to? A family to call my own?' Every thought churned his mind like a storm, and it fueled his anger—an anger that burned brighter than the flames of this chaotic world. If there was no peace to be found in his thoughts, then he would crush this world, bending it to his will. “For god’s sake,” Suho muttered, his voice low but full of venom. “I didn’t ask to be here. So, I’ll make this place pay for every second it keeps me away from them.” The path forward wasn’t clear, but it won't stop Suho.

My Best Friend is a Hybrid

It’s the year 2073, and everything has changed. New high-tech dominates almost all aspects of life. However, this has a dark side: unethical human experiments. 17-year-old Akira Cruz, the genius nephew of the president of the Philippines, was in the middle of grieving for his late best friend when he stumbled upon an abandoned orphan boy in the mountains while on a hike with his younger sister. That boy is Hachi Shimizu, a half-zombie, half-vampire who was disposed of by an evil organization known as the Kara Tech, which was notorious for its brutal and unethical experiments. Together, the two boys team up with a detective named Toshi Kawasaki, a half-Japanese, half-British who specializes in the supernatural and also considers the murder case of Akira’s best friend open despite the police closing it due to a lack of evidence. The three of them believed that Kara Tech was somehow connected to the disappearances of various children in and around the Tokyo Metropolitan Area. As they go and solve cases, their friendship blossoms, especially when two people, Riho Yoshihara, Akira's childhood, biracial friend, and Htet Kawa, a half-Japanese, half-Burmese junior detective from Yokohama, come along in their various missions, both involving the supernatural and the overworld. Will they stop the organization from committing more heinous crimes before it’s too late? Warning: the photo used for the book cover is NOT mine! Credits go to the original owner!!!
