The Six

Sleight of Fate

When Hikaru Kageyama and his entire high school class are summoned to another world, it’s supposed to be the start of a grand adventure. The kingdom promises them power, glory, and the chance to become legendary heroes. There’s just one problem—the ranking system is rigged. The strongest students are given Gold ranks, trained as the kingdom’s elite warriors. The second-best receive Silver ranks, still valuable, still useful. But Hikaru? He’s slapped with a Bronze rank and thrown aside, along with the other “weak” students. While the Gold and Silver heroes are trained by knights and scholars, Hikaru is sent to the Adventurer’s Guild, a place where misfits, mercenaries, and troublemakers gather. But instead of despairing, he embraces the chaos. Because Hikaru doesn’t fight with brute strength. He fights with trickery, sleight of hand, and deception. Armed with the Deck of Deception, an ability that allows him to manipulate reality like a magician’s trick, Hikaru starts bending the rules of this world. He joins forces with the Five Strongest Adventurers, a legendary group not bound by the kingdom’s authority. Along the way, he meets Budi, an Indonesian exchange student with a mask-based power, who may be his greatest rival… or his closest ally. As Hikaru pulls cons, scams nobles, and tricks his way through dungeons, he begins to uncover a deeper truth: The heroes weren’t summoned to save this world—they were summoned for something far worse. The kingdom is hiding secrets. The Demon Lord might not be the true enemy. And the gods of Earth’s mythology are involved in ways no one understands. If Hikaru wants to survive, he won’t just have to fight. He’ll have to outplay fate itself.

The Warmth of the Sun in the Winter

"They told me the stars could guide me home, but they never said the journey would leave me so utterly lost." Do you still remember your highschool deskmate? The boy with the brightest smile, that girl with the world's most beautiful silhouette? In three years of high school, the shadows of two people intertwine with the chalk, black and white both distinct, drifting around within the memories. The Su Yuanzhou in her memories was an underachiever in high school. He skips class to shoot pool, cheats on his exams and gets into fights. Yet, when she went back to the past she would always surprise herself for seeing a lot of his side, maybe if she did this before he probably wouldn't die. To be able to meet each other on this planet is some kind of fate, and to be able to illuminate our fleeting lives, how fortunate we are. ... Ren Yuxin was trailing behind Su Yuanzhou like a guilty puppy, her face plastered with an exaggerated pout. "Come here," Su Yuanzhou said, stopping in his tracks and turning to look at her. His tone was calm, but the slight twitch in his jaw betrayed his frustration. "Why?" Ren Yuxin asked, her voice overly cautious, taking a step back instead of forward. "Just come here." His patience was running thin. Ren Yuxin crossed her arms and tilted her head dramatically. "No! You’re going to hit me!" Su Yuanzhou froze, staring at her in disbelief. A few students nearby stifled their laughter, pretending not to watch the exchange. "I’m not going to hit you," he said, exasperated. "Do I look like that kind of person?" "Yes." Ren Yuxin nodded solemnly, her eyes wide with mock innocence. Su Yuanzhou sighed, rubbing his temples. How does she manage to drive me insane every single time? His patience—already minimal—was hanging by a thread. "Ren Yuxin," he said, his tone low and dangerous. "Come here. Now." "No way!" she retorted, taking another step back. "I know you’re mad because I—" She paused, looking guilty. "Because you what?" Su Yuanzhou prompted, narrowing his eyes. "... Because I accidentally sent that embarrassing video of you singing in the shower to our group chat," she admitted in a small voice, her eyes darting away. Su Yuanzhou’s face darkened instantly. He felt every shred of his dignity crumbling. "Accidentally?" he repeated, his voice rising. "It really was an accident!" Ren Yuxin protested, raising her hands defensively. "I didn’t mean to press send!" "Accident or not, you’re dead," Su Yuanzhou said, stepping toward her with purpose. "See! You are going to hit me!" she squealed, turning on her heels and running off. "Get back here!" he yelled, chasing after her.
