When I opened my eyes, I was inside a novel. [The Birth of a Hero]. [The Birth of a Hero] was a novel focused on the adventures of the main character, Choi Han, a high school boy who was transported to a different dimension from Earth, along with the birth of the numerous heroes of the continent. I became a part of that novel as the trash of the Count’s family, the family that oversaw the territory where the first village that Choi Han visits is located. The problem is that Choi Han becomes twisted after that village, and everyone in it, are destroyed by assassins. The bigger problem is the fact that this stupid trash who I’ve become doesn’t know about what happened in the village and messes with Choi Han, only to get beaten to a pulp. “…This is going to be a problem.” I feel like something serious has happened to me. But it was worth trying to make this my new life.

I was betrayed by my own companions. In the Black Tower, where I fought as my team’s shield, I was stabbed in the back in exchange for a legacy item. My journey ended in blood and disloyalty. But fate granted me the impossible. I woke up ten years in the past, six months before the launch of the game that changed the world. This time, I will not repeat my mistakes. I trained my body to exhaustion. I filled my notebooks with notes, revisited history, and prepared every detail. I am not just a returning player — I am a strategist with ten years of memories seared into me like iron and fire. And when the Tower demanded a choice, I did not hesitate. While everyone else chases easy glory, I bear the burden no one wants. I am the Tank. And this time… I will not stop until I win.

Betrayed by her family and betrothed to a prince, Arlen runs for her life—only to be found by the domineering Duke Liam Crawford, the man she should fear most. Cold, commanding, wealthy and irresistibly magnetic, he saves her with a single touch and claims her as his own. Every whispered command, every lingering caress, draws her deeper into a treacherous game with a man who sees her not as a wife, but as a prize to possess. In his arms, danger tastes like desire… but will she surrender or survive?

In the blazing finals of the Miyagi Prefecture Junior High tournament, the gym roars as Chidoriyama’s ace, Akira Tōru, takes the court. With silver hair catching the lights and a confident grin, he faces Kitagawa Daiichi—and their “King,” Tobio Kageyama. From the first serve, Akira’s elegant spikes and impenetrable “Holy Wall” blocks dismantle Kitagawa’s offense. Thud! Every block shakes the court, drawing gasps from the stands. In Karasuno’s section, Hinata Shōyō leans forward, eyes wide. “He’s amazing…” Daichi folds his arms, impressed. “That’s precision. And power.” Tanaka whistles. “He’s a demon up there.” Even Nishinoya, now a graduate, punches the air. “That’s my junior!” Desperate to break through, Kageyama sets lightning-fast balls, but his teammates can’t keep up. Frustration builds; Kitagawa’s rhythm shatters. The scoreboard climbs—25–18, 25–15. Chidoriyama claims victory, and Akira, sweat glistening, simply smiles as if it were just another day. Rumors swirl. A three-time national champion in junior high, courted by elite volleyball powerhouses, Akira shocks everyone by choosing Karasuno—not Shiratorizawa, not Aoba Johsai. Oikawa sulks in disbelief, while Karasuno’s veterans wonder what this prodigy will bring. When Akira steps into Karasuno’s gym for the first time, the atmosphere shifts. His playful jabs in practice hide a razor-sharp mind, picking apart defenses and reading opponents with ease. But when he turns serious, his presence is overwhelming, almost unbeatable. For Hinata, he’s both best friend and rival. For Kageyama, he’s the wall to climb. And for Karasuno, he may just be the spark to take them back to the top.

Human life is not merely a collection of present moments. Every feeling, every attraction, every decision stems from a much deeper order—a soul’s long journey, drifting, learning, and remembering across lifetimes and ages. For Avarka, the world has always been full of mysteries. She was taken in, loved, and taught, yet deep inside, she always felt destined for something greater. When she decides to leave for Rindanof, the city of angels, she does not yet realize that she must not only become a warrior but also uncover the deepest layers of her own existence. The journey, however, tests not only the body but also the soul. As she comes to understand the laws of the world more deeply, she realizes that every attraction, every love, and everything we cling to was once already a part of our soul. Are we truly guided by free will, or do the memories of our past lives lead us down a familiar yet forgotten path? Beyond the borders of the known world, between humans and angels, an invisible war rages—not just with weapons, but with emotions, faith, and awareness. Avarka faces a choice: to plunge into battle or to understand that the greatest war is not fought in the outside world, but within ourselves.

She is light, he is darkness—never meant to meet, yet fate weaved their paths in secret Pearl always thought life was filled with kindness, with people who meant well and souls pure at heart. But she was wrong. I was wrong. And it wasn’t until he walked into my life, all brown eyes and impossible arrogance, that I realized how wrong I truly was. You want to know why? Keep reading. But don’t say I didn’t warn you… the line between hate and something else? It’s thinner than you think
