I Became a Human Elixir and They Refuses to Let Me Go

phoenixhyperion
Kael used to be part of the “Special Army” that defended the world against “monsters.” Fourteen years ago, unknown portals that looked like black holes started to appear all around the world. After the first monster attack, humans gained extraordinary powers. Having learned their lesson, they went and attacked the monsters first before they could strike. Kael was part of the first group of “Extraordinary Humans,” who later called themselves the “Special Army.” He spent the next seven years fighting for peace. He also found the meaning of his life when the person he secretly loved also loved him back. Everything was going well… until they entered an S-Class Dungeon and his special ability was revealed to everyone. A gift of immortality, also known as “Athanasia.” He never could have guessed that his lover, the very person who gave meaning to his life, would be the same person who would take it from him. His lover killed his comrades in front of him one by one, demanding the gift. Kael gave it up willingly, but his lover still killed him in the end. Just when his lover thought he had died, Kael miraculously survived. Seven years later, his lover became the leader of the biggest and most influential guild in the world. Kael planned to live his life in hiding and live peacefully. But he never could have thought that his ex-lover was still obsessed with the “gift,” going as far as hunting each of Kael’s relatives and friends just to get his hands on the “elixir.” Now, Kael is bent on exacting revenge and stopping this monster from being loose. He will do whatever it takes. He can go as far as getting close to his ex-lover’s younger brother and using him for revenge.

System is My Manager

The system didn't give me a sword. It gave me a performance review. When the apocalypse arrived, most people got combat classes, mana cores, or at least a decent sword. Ethan Cole got a notification that read: You have been assigned: Operations Manager (Provisional) Your performance will be reviewed at regular intervals. Underperformance may result in demotion, resource reallocation, or termination. Good luck. No attack stat. No mana. No class skills that actually kill anything. What he got instead was a system that evaluated how well he managed people, resources, logistics, and organizational structure — and rewarded him accordingly. Turns out, in a world where everyone else is busy leveling their sword arm, someone still needs to figure out where the food comes from, why the chain of command keeps collapsing, and how to stop three different survivor factions from killing each other before the actual monsters get a turn. Ethan is not the hero. He's the guy making sure the hero has somewhere to sleep, something to eat, and a reason not to defect. Directive started as a refugee camp. Then it became a settlement. Then an organization. Then something the system itself couldn't quite classify. And the higher Ethan climbs — from Team Lead to Operations Manager to whatever comes next — the more he realizes: The system isn't a reward mechanic. It's a management structure. And management structures can be studied. Reverse-engineered. Gamed. The only question is what happens when the system notices you've figured out how it works. Progression fantasy with a white-collar twist. Organizational building, bureaucratic warfare, and the slow, deeply satisfying process of turning a collapsing world into something that actually functions. No chosen one. No secret bloodline. Just competence, structure, and the audacity to submit a better report than the apocalypse.

Honkai: The Romance System Only Shows Up After I Marry Mei

Twenty-two years after transmigrating, Su Ming had already confirmed this was a peaceful, everyday timeline—one with no Honkai at all. And he had long since become a winner in life: he’d married a rich, beautiful woman and was preparing to step into the role of CEO at ME Corporation, ready to reach the very peak of success. True, his wife’s white-haired, blue-eyed best friend—and another close friend with silver hair and gray eyes—both seemed to harbor certain feelings for him. But as a devoted, faithful man, Su Ming would never even consider being unfaithful. [Ding—] [Conditions met. “Degenerate Romance System” has been loaded. Please use whatever shameless methods you like to攻略 the heroine!] Sigh. Life was already pretty great as it was… but with a system, the possibilities were limitless. [Ding—] [Conditions met. “Classic Heroine Route System” has been loaded. Please use righteous, straightforward methods to win over the heroine!] Oh? Two systems? Interesting. Looks like I’ll have to let Mei down after all. Let me see what this is about! Wait—what the hell? There are dungeons too?! Don’t tell me this “romance system” is literally about clearing dungeon instances?! Damn it, what kind of rotten system is this? Hold on—are you kidding me?! Why is there Honkai energy resistance listed among the rewards?! Don’t tell me Honkai is about to happen?! This system is going to ruin me! No, please—give me back my relaxed, easygoing slice-of-life days!
