Asher Quinn never stood a chance against Kael Everhart's charm—the popular basketball captain, the influencer with millions of followers, the boy who made him feel seen for the first time.

What happens after death? It's a mystery no one can say. Before being betrayed, he had always held on to the belief that there are two realms to go to after death: Heaven and Hell. However, after being betrayed, he found out that it's not like that. Almost everything he learned about was a fallacy. The universe was not created but naturally formed. Arishem, the ultimate ruler of Heaven, was once a human who found the Celestial Ruler and created Heaven. Lucifer was under him, using the Karot to direct souls from the universe to empower Lucifer by turning them into soul drops. Lucifer betrayed Arishem and ran away with the Karot. He created Hell using the treasure and started monopolizing all the souls from Earth. Souls had no way to enter Heaven again, thereby preventing Arishem from getting stronger through absorbing souls, so he had to use another way detrimental to the universe. Which way is it? Wallace was betrayed by his family and died; his soul went to Hell, where he learned that he would have to undergo extermination and become nourishment for Lucifer. He learned that stories about benevolent Heaven were not real, as they wanted; they were all looking for ways to monopolize souls and exterminate them to make themselves stronger. He did not accept his fate; he had to go through three different trials so that his will could be erased, and he would surrender. Nine deaths, Cerberus' wrath, and the Soul Rending Whip were enough to break the will of any soul and damage them. Not willing to surrender, he had to go through the three trials, going through unimaginable torture and pain. In the third trial, there was the emergence of another treasure, the Karum, on his dead body. With the help of Karum, his soul was called back from Hell and melded into his body, turning him into a half-human, half-spiritual being, while also nurturing something of unimaginable precedence in his body. The Celestial Ruler created Heaven; the Karot created Hell. What can the Karum, the last creation treasure the universe can nurture, and one that's far stronger than the two former treasures, do? Can he fulfill what it can do? Can he survive under the pursuit of Heaven and Hell? What secret does the universe hold? How was the universe created? Is it from the emergence of a treasure? What’s the secret behind everything?

A borrowed body is supposed to be empty. In the Afterlife Bureau, every dead soul is given a standard “loaner body” and twenty‑four hours on Earth to fix one regret before they move on. The rules are simple: no memories stay with the body, no emotions linger, and the vessel never, ever becomes a person. Except one did. After thousands of uses, one defective loaner body remembers everyone. Regrets, loves, crimes, last words—each soul leaves a stain, and the stains have started talking back. When the Bureau schedules a terrorist soul who once tried to destroy the system, the body panics, breaks the timer, and runs. Hunted by reapers, sharing a single body with a dangerous soul, this “thing” built from leftovers must decide: stay a tool, or become a person even if it means tearing the afterlife apart.

Z is not your average spirit mediator. A firm believer in science—and determined to make everyone else believe in it too—she takes on the odd role of an afterlife agent. Sent to Australia on a special assignment from an underworld official, she ends up crossing paths with Jake and his childhood friend Daniel. Together, they stumble into one outrageous ghost case after another. At first, Jake is captivated by Z’s cool and aloof demeanor. But the more time they spend together, the more he discovers her goofy, sarcastic side—and later, something deeper. Beneath her playful exterior, Z keeps a part of herself locked away. Her real reason for coming to Australia isn’t just ghostly business: she’s quietly investigating the mystery of her father, a secret she never shares with anyone. Now, with two rookie Australian assistants at her side, this eccentric mediator embarks on a journey like no other—where science meets the supernatural, and laughter collides with danger. If you like urban fantasy with supernatural twists, cross-cultural humor, and a heroine who’d rather bargain with a ghost than fight it (unless she really has to)—this is your story.
