The Turn Of The Key Detective

The Cipher: Locks and Keys

In a world where power manifests through ancient "Keys" and "Locks," each with unique abilities tied to destruction or protection, young Lockey struggles to find his place. Born without either power, he's bullied and ostracized until a traumatic confrontation with a classmate changes his fate forever. In a moment of desperation, Lockey unlocks a hidden strength: the Universal Key of String, one of seven legendary Keys that grant their wielders unimaginable abilities. This key grants him the power to cut through anything, setting him on a path filled with danger and mystery. As Lockey navigates a world of secret powers, shadowy cults, and complex alliances, he discovers that the Universal Keys—ranging from the reality-bending Key of Inverse to the deadly Key of Poison—are coveted by many. Among them is the mysterious Dominus cult, a group determined to rule the world by controlling the Universal Keys. At the heart of Dominus are two enigmatic brothers, Cyrus, who can manipulate the world like a computer program, and Corin, who wields the elements through color manipulation. Together, they pose a threat far greater than Lockey could have ever imagined. With friends and foes emerging at every turn, Lockey must master his own powers while unraveling the secrets of the Universal Keys. Alongside his allies, including the complex and dangerous Pinnochi, Lockey embarks on a journey across dimensions, through deadly caves, and into the very heart of the Dominus cult’s sinister plans. But as his powers grow, so does the burden they bring, and Lockey will need to decide whether he can hold onto his humanity—or if he will be consumed by the power he now controls.

The Karmic Comeback: Capture the Beast and Turn the Tides

After enduring three lifetimes of hardships and bloodshed, Bai Feiyin was promised with glitters and rainbows in her fourth life by none other than her contracted beast after it ascends. But before she could even achieve her goal, everything went down the drain as she decided not to fall victim into what...? A con-artist's trap?! "What a bull!" Thrown into a backward existence, she can only grit her teeth and pull a hankerchief in rage. Since she can't directly blame the gods, Bai Feiyin swear to get back with her so-called companion beast. "Argh! Y-you treacherous snake! I knew from the start that you couldn't be trusted! I should have roasted you when I saw you dying the first time we met, not signing that sham contract and work with you to ascend!" The anger in her system didn't subside. "You sent me back to my first life? For real? Wow, wow fantastic! What perfect shit!"  She specifically told him not in this life, that despicable man! "So you want to toy with me? Then be it! I will scour the mountains and hunt you down! I don't believe that I go back in time, you, my contracted beast won't go back as well," she uttered resolutely. Face beet red, burning in rage, she stared intently at the pigeon bloodstone inside her palms with a mark of a serpent's slitted eyes. "Those two other lives filled with war and bloodshed weren't lived in vain. Since you've sent me here, I will bury you along with those greedy pigs from the Bai Main Branch who owe me and my family four lifetimes' worth of debts!" Not long after she bemoaned, "Hmm, no hold on." Revealing a bit rather conflicted look, she tried to suppress her ire upon cooking up something like a shrewd mastermind. "On the second thought, just burying Hong with that regretfully good-looking face of his would be such a pity..." she pondered, but very soon snapped with glee. "Fine, it's a wrap! I will capture that little snake and work his ass like he did to me!" Bai Feiyin, looking like a greedy hyena, found her resolved with bright twinkling eyes that casted away the shadows under her swollen eyes. "Let's sell him off to some rich aunties and get lots of dowries!" *** This will include beastmen but in the form of spirit beasts. There's a hint of cultivation but just subtle that's why I didn't add it as a tag. Please support me thank you!
