Black Widow After Civil War

In the dark and treacherous city of Blackmere, investigator Elias Renshaw has spent years uncovering lost artifacts and unraveling hidden truths. But when a mysterious woman named Lena approaches him with a cryptic message—"Find the Black Key before they do"—he is thrust into a deadly game of secrets, betrayal, and power. The Black Key is rumored to be an ancient artifact tied to the forgotten kings of old, a key that could unlock something capable of reshaping the very foundations of the city. As Elias and Lena race against shadowy forces who will stop at nothing to possess it, they must navigate a maze of cryptic clues, dangerous adversaries, and a history that refuses to stay buried.

In a city where trust is scarce and the past is as dangerous as the present, Elias must decide how far he is willing to go to unearth the Black Key’s true power. Will he unlock salvation—or doom?

One day, out of nowhere, people gained the ability to control what they called mana, thanks to a small organ that appeared in the lower part of their bodies. Nobody knew why this had happened, but soon, they found out the reason. Ten years later, portals appeared all around the globe, and a message sounded in every person's mind. "Planet 306th, welcome to the Planetary Wars. Today, you have been chosen to fight against Planet 334. The winner will be determined after the beacon of the planet has been destroyed. Pray to your gods." After that, another message arrived—the location of the beacon. Australia. And just like that, the war had begun. At first, humans were overwhelmed, but a group of people united and formed the U.C.M. With the mighty strength of human technology and the great power of those who could control aura, against all odds, humanity won. Yet— "Congratulations! On winning your first battle. As a gift, Planet 334 is now part of your territory. A five-year rest period will be granted before the next battle begins." Panic spread, but this time, humanity would not be caught off guard. With the next generation of aura-wielding warriors rising, Earth prepares for the wars to come. Because in this brutal game of survival, there is only one rule: Win, or be conquered.

A Sci-Fi Epic of Cosmic Rebellion In the shadows of a glittering metropolis, Shen Zheng is a scorned laborer until he fuses with a charred alien insect egg—a seemingly worthless "Insect Implant" that grants him the terrifying ability to devour cosmic energy and manipulate elements like fire and water. His meteoric rise to fame in the White Wolf Star System comes at a deadly cost: humanity itself is revealed to be the experimental prey of the "Ancient Gods," who engineered insect swarms as tools to control civilizations.

From enduring bullying in the White Wolf military district to mastering insect-core technology at Lunar Star Academy, every step forces him to confront the blurred line between humanity and divinity.

What she hadn’t expected was that her fiancé would betray her, because of a plot he concocted together with her sister. The monster annihilated their whole team before they were finally able to defeat it, but her fiancé had no thoughts of letting her leave the tower. Stabbing her in the back, he leered over her as he explained their plan while she slowly bled to death. With the last of her life force, dead set on getting her revenge on the man she had promised her life with, she heals the boss monster in hopes that it will kill him.

Her new life starts now!
