"Imagine not being a subscriber… couldn't be me." "Can we get some Fs in the chat for these noobs who can't keep up?" Reborn in a land of swords and magic called Oceros, Dilhan, a former streamer from a strange world called Earth, decided to make a living by streaming since that was the only thing he knew how to do. But this land, Oceros, was a world of a Souls-like action RPG game called "Blighted" that Dilhan had played before he died on Earth after exploding a nerve while stuck on the same boss for an entire day. Despite all of this he decided to live a normal life as a streamer but what was this? Instead of building a channel and gaining fame, he began attracting crazy followers and insane women seeking his "bodily blessings." People started treating him like a god and treating him like some kind of a messiah, while others labelled him a heretic and attempted to kill him. Did he understand all of this when he decided to hit that "Start Streaming" button? This is Dilhan's journey to become the first streamer in the land of Oceros, a world plagued by a being known as the Harbinger. Will he become the first streamer in this world, or will he become something more to its people? *** Author's Note: —This story has R-18 elements to it, but no netorare (NTR), or Yuri(Lesbian). —This story is a work of fiction and all the character names, locations, ages, and events depicted are purely the product of the author’s imagination.

ABSTRACT Religion was never the problem. Power was. This work undertakes a forensic dismantling of the machinery by which sacred knowledge originally encoded in mystery traditions, Mosaic law, Kabbalistic structure, and pre-canonical scripture was systematically extracted from its esoteric root, flattened into doctrine, and redeployed as an instrument of psychic governance. What institutional religion calls faith, this text identifies as a manufactured epistemology: a controlled framework of meaning designed not to liberate the seeker but to administrate the believer. Drawing from the suppressed architecture of excluded biblical texts, the symbolic grammar of Mosaic tradition, and the occult jurisprudence embedded in grimoire literature, the argument advances a single, irreducible thesis that the distance between revelation and religion is precisely the distance between gnosis and obedience. Every canon is a censorship. Every creed is a perimeter. Every prosperity gospel is a financial derivative of divine language, stripped of its metaphysical collateral and sold as spiritual equity to populations conditioned to confuse surrender with salvation. This is not an atheist text. It is something more dangerous a theologically literate, philosophically rigorous indictment written from inside the tradition. It does not deny the sacred. It refuses to allow the sacred to remain hostage to the institutional. The manipulation was never about God. It was always about who gets to speak for Him and what they extract from those who believe.

They called him obsessed. A college dropout. A ghost who trained in silence. To Raifu, every punch, every breath, every stance was sacred. When death finds him, it’s not an end—it’s his entrance to a new realm. A slave world. A place where people are born as Alcries—beings bound to one stat, one fate, and one master. But Raifu is not bound. Each combo he performs sends ripples through reality. Every strike bends the laws of space and time. He’s the first Skillweaver—combat as code, rhythm as rewrite. And the world will either harmonize with him… Or be shattered by the beat!

Set against the backdrop of a new college life, Aishi and Ayush’s chance encounter slowly blossoms into a tender bond of friendship and unspoken affection. Though their hearts quietly gravitate toward each other, neither finds the courage to voice their true feelings. As their connection deepens, they are confronted by an unyielding reality—the divide of their different religions. Bound by the expectations of family, society, and deeply rooted beliefs, their relationship is pushed to the brink. Caught in a delicate balance between love and duty, Aishi and Ayush must face an impossible choice: will they defy all odds to be together, or will the barriers of faith ultimately pull them apart?

One day, a strange hand suddenly appeared inside Chi Wan’s interdimensional space. Its owner claimed to be living in the apocalypse—starving, desperate—and begged to trade anything he had for food. Chi Wan stared at the pile of Imperial Green jade, oversized diamonds, and dozens of kilograms of gold bars he offered… and fell into deep thought. …Wasn’t this a little too profitable? From then on, her connection to the apocalypse only grew stronger. The mysterious man—who turned out to be a powerful figure—used his Wood Ability to help her revive rare orchids, cultivate endangered plants, and even harvest zombie crystal cores for the country. As for Chi Wan? She only had three responsibilities: feed him, feed him, and keep feeding him. Somehow, without realizing it, a group of extraordinary men began to gather around her: A genius research scientist. An aloof, abstinent CEO. A cold and ruthless Soldier King… In front of Chi Wan, they were gentle, attentive, and impeccably polite—each trying to outshine the others. Behind her back? They were one step away from tearing each other apart. Meanwhile, on the other side of the spatial link… The so-called King of the Apocalypse clenched his teeth in silence as he listened to these men compete for her attention. As for Chi Wan? “I’m busy getting rich and supporting my family,” she said calmly. “A battle royale of suitors? I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Until one day— An absurdly handsome man appeared at the gates of her villa… carrying a sack filled with gold and jewels. “I’m here to marry into your family,” he declared. Chi Wan glanced at him, then at the newly connected wasteland world inside her space… …and once again fell into deep thought.
