In a society where corruption hides behind polished institutions and public justice often arrives too late, two university students Aiden Kurogami and Renji Sato quietly begin to believe that the system itself is beyond repair. Bound by a childhood promise and shaped by personal loss, the two friends pursue justice in different ways: Renji holds on to the belief that morality must remain intact even in a broken world, while Aiden becomes convinced that outcomes matter more than the methods used to achieve them. Their paths lead them into the shadows of a secret organization operating under a mysterious figure known only as “The Founder.” What begins as cooperation in covert operations slowly evolves into something far more complex—where truth is fragmented, identities are hidden, and every decision carries irreversible consequences. As political figures begin to fall and an underground war against corruption escalates, investigator Kaito Arisawa closes in on the existence of a hidden system orchestrating these events. But nothing is as it seems. The Founder is not just a symbol of control. It is a question of identity, ideology, and sacrifice. As alliances blur and reality becomes increasingly difficult to trust, Renji must confront whether the justice he believes in still exists—or whether he has been unknowingly helping build the very system he sought to oppose. In a world where every truth has a cost, and every lie serves a purpose, the real question is not who is right—but what remains when all sides believe they are.

In the relentless shadow of Ancient Rome, a man awakens in chains with no memory of his past. Named Lucius Mordus by circumstance, he finds himself thrust into the brutal world of gladiatorial combat—a nameless slave with nothing but his wits and fighting instincts. Unlike his fellow captives, who cling to hope or succumb to despair, Lucius faces his imprisonment with cold calculation. With no memories to constrain his morality or past attachments to weaken his resolve, he recognizes a fundamental truth: in this world where men are treated as property, power is the only currency that matters. From the blood-soaked sands of provincial arenas to the marble halls where the Roman elite play their deadly political games, Pax Mortis chronicles Lucius' methodical rise in Roman society. With infinite patience and ruthless pragmatism, he transforms himself from expendable entertainment into an indispensable asset, leveraging every relationship, exploiting every opportunity, and eliminating every obstacle.

And then he died. Selfishly. Foolishly. He would tell you that his choice was right. But he would regret it all the same. This is his retelling. His warped perspective on every bad thing that ever happened to him. In his words: It's the kind of love that only causes pain, the kind of loneliness that pushes people over the edge, and the realization that the pit you've thrown yourself into was bottomless all along. During his descent, the void slowly creeps up on Pax. It latches on to him, corrupting him, and slowly replacing him with a monster. He can't will himself to keep moving, but eternal rest is not an option... So he marches onward, Unliving. Till' he is naught but Sin. ------- Author's notes ------- Warning: This work has strong depictions of suicide and self-harm. Get help if you need it.

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
