Work From Home Sect

No one: The beginning of almost every isekai story... The protagonist slowly opened his eyes. "Where am I?" Judging by the ceiling above him, it definitely wasn't his room. The last thing he remembered was walking home from work when a truck came out of nowhere. After that... Did I get isekai'd? Several years later, he finally obtained what every transmigrator dreamed of. A system. [Ding! Welcome to the Sect Master System!] [Beginner Pack Reward Issued.] His eyes lit up. What was it? A divine cultivation technique? An ancient bloodline? A heaven-defying treasure? Instead, a familiar rectangular object appeared in his hands. "A... smartphone?" He stared at it in confusion. "What am I supposed to do with this?" [Create a Sect. Become its Master.] "I don't even have a place to start a sect..." He paused for a moment. "Oh wait, I can just make one at home."

Dark Desires

It starts simple: one tries to take control, the other refuses to be contained. But instead of a clean clash, it turns into something slower, sharper. Senka doesn’t like uncertainty—she pushes, tests, forces things into clarity. Moriarty doesn’t resist loudly; he studies, bends, and answers in ways that never fully give her what she wants.

Brothers of Light and darkness: “The Struggle for Balance”

This is not a story about good versus evil. It is a story about what happens when good people stay silent. In a world decaying under greed, corruption, and moral compromise, two brothers are chosen to stand at the center of a celestial war between the god Irah and the demon king Zahar. But divine battles are only a reflection of a deeper truth: Darkness does not win because it is powerful. It wins because people allow it to. Lucian carries both mercy and ruthlessness within him. Hito carries a hope that refuses to be extinguished. Together, they are forced to confront a reality few are willing to face: Light without action is meaningless. Power without integrity is corruption. Hope without courage is illusion. Seven celestial angels defend crumbling nations — yet even heaven cannot save a world that refuses responsibility. Balance is not about harmony. Balance is about choosing to stand up when it would be safer to kneel. When injustice spreads… When corruption feels normal… When silence feels easier… Who are you?
