Low Key American Gods

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.

Saint of Gods

Sacred Darkness was a VR RPG game that was still in the development stage and had just completed its alpha testing. The game was introduced as "let's look at the story from the perspective of the villains." This single sentence was enough to pique people's interest. More than 2 million people worldwide flooded the application page to be selected for the beta test. In order to receive good feedback, the game developers selected 49 countries, and one person from each of these selected countries was chosen to participate in the test. Countries such as the USA, UK, France, Spain, Germany, Italy, China, Japan, Russia, India, Mexico, Egypt, and Brazil were just a few of them. Although Türkiye was not on this list, the reason I was able to participate in the beta test was because I knew the person who wrote the story of the game. In fact, I had even helped him in some parts of it. Although I didn't have an obligation to participate, I did not want to miss the chance to see my favorite character in the story of the game earlier, which I had read over and over again countless times from start to finish. And I accepted to participate in the beta test. I wish I hadn't accepted... ∆ Main Task: The Descent of Darkness Task Description: You are reborn as a citizen of this world! Dark forces roam the world! They all have a common goal! Destroy the Sacred Kingdom Lumaine and spread darkness to this world! Prevent the descent of darkness and save the world! Task Rank: SSS Time Limit: 25 years Task Reward: Return Ticket Failure: Death ACCEPT or REJECT Warning! You cannot reject this task! Ding! If you die while the task is ongoing, you will die in reality as well and will not be able to return to your world again! The return ticket is the only way to return to your world! Ding! Your time has started! You only have one life! Please stay alive! May luck be with you! ***** I am not translating the text myself. I am having it translated by artificial intelligence. I apologize in advance for any mistakes in writing.
