Death at midnight

The Masks we all Wear

### The Masks We All Wear #### Synopsis In the bustling metropolis of Tokyo, the intricate dance of human interaction plays out in a symphony of unseen strings, each person tethered to their roles and personas. This is a city where the masks we wear are not just metaphors but essential tools for survival. Through the eyes of a dispassionate observer, we witness the lives of several seemingly unconnected individuals, each navigating their personal labyrinth of deception and self-discovery. There's the high-powered executive whose confident facade hides crippling self-doubt, the schoolteacher whose cheerful demeanor masks a haunting past, the teenager whose rebellious front conceals a desperate plea for acceptance, and the elderly man whose wisdom is a cover for a lifetime of regrets. Each chapter delves deep into the psychological landscapes of these characters, revealing the intricate masks they don and the reasons behind them. Their lives intersect in unexpected ways, creating a tapestry of secrets, lies, and revelations. As their stories unfold, the narrative explores the profound impact of societal expectations on individual identities and the lengths people go to maintain their façades. Inspired by the narrative complexity of Nisio Isin and the psychological depth of Keiichi Sigsawa, *The Masks We All Wear* is a gripping thriller that blurs the lines between reality and illusion. The novel masterfully weaves drama and suspense, keeping readers on the edge of their seats as they uncover the layers of each character's true self. In a city where everyone is an actor in their own life story, the ultimate question remains: What happens when the masks finally fall? This thought-provoking tale challenges our perceptions of identity and authenticity, leaving readers to ponder the masks they wear in their own lives.

(BL) My Evil Werewolf System

(Warning! BL mature content ahead!) Yu Weimin was a seasoned criminal. Attacking bureaucrats and making trouble for the Empire were part of his everyday schedule. It’s just that he never thought the Marshal he hated the most for several decades would suddenly use such a cheap trick to capture him. Even more absurd was that instead of being sentenced to death, his final judgment was changed. As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard a high-pitched female voice in his head. [Ding.] [System Booting up] [Welcome to the Evil Werewolf System! I’m your system, 520!] Then, Yu Weimin was forced to jump from one world to another to save the villains. Wait, why do they seem like a certain Marshal he hates the most? Before he could confirm his suspicions, the villains started becoming stickier and stickier. Yu Weimin, “Honestly, did he capture me just to push me against the wall?” System 520: [.....Maybe?] Cold, heartless, and a criminal Shou X Smooth talker, egoistic, and vengeful Gong ***** Sneak peek~ Yu Weimin ignored his system and bent down to grab a certain little wolf by the neck. He stared at those red eyes filled with anger and slapped the wolf’s butt, making the latter shriek. A certain villain in his little wolf form bared his teeth. [Ding.] [Hatred value increased!] [Hatred value increased!] [Hatred value increased!] [Ho-Host…. Can you stop this?!! I’m gonna get a data error!!!!] Yu Weimin finally stopped torturing a certain villain and glared at the small pup in his arms. “If you dare to run away again, it won’t just be your butt that will face the consequences.” ***** Arc 1: ABO World!

Now, Alex will do what he must to keep Sabe safe, even if it means risking exposure in the process. Meanwhile, Gabriel Hart, CEO and manipulative angel, is given the simple task of locating a potential threat to Nukan City. What he discovers as he tracks the demon is worse than he expected.

Honkai Star Rail:The Assistant director

Ritsuka Fujimaru. Last master of Chaldea and Destroyer of Worlds. The boy who saved humanity several times to become the enemy of several civilizations, some were innocent, others were not. He holds these titles while being just a simple human with no talent as a mage. Unfortunately, he has an enormous talent for attracting dangerous beings who are interested in discovering how a mere human can defy his own destiny and death several times and emerge victorious. It is because of this bad luck that the boy has that he was dragged to participate in an adventure that goes beyond the stars of his universe. This is the story of his journey from a simple delivery boy (assistant director) to the Herta space station. This story takes place after the events of Ordeal Call 2. So if you feel that Ritsuka is very serious, it's because he just came back from the real world and said goodbye to the Avengers. Another thing, this is my first story that I'm writing in this app (especially in a foreign language) so expect dramatic errors, since I'm using a translator to write. (The old title was the Errand Boy)
