Cassandra Blake knew how Attack on Titan ended. She knew who would die. She knew who would betray humanity. She knew which screams were coming before the people around her even learned to be afraid. Then she fell asleep in the modern world and woke up in Shiganshina on the day Wall Maria fell. Trapped inside a story built on sacrifice, Cass joins the 104th Cadet Corps with the weight of the future locked behind her teeth. She knows too much, moves too carefully, and somehow always seems to be in the right place when death comes reaching. To the military, she is suspicious. To civilians, she becomes something dangerously close to hope. To her friends, she is the girl who laughs with them, fights beside them, and refuses to let go when the world tells her she should. But fate does not break quietly. Every life Cass saves changes the path ahead. Every secret she keeps draws sharper eyes toward her. And in a world where survival already demands everything, Cassandra Blake will have to decide how much of herself she is willing to lose to keep the people she loves alive. Because knowing the future is not the same as saving it. All credit for Attack on Titan and its entities belongs to Hajime Isayama. I only own Cassandra Blake and pieces of the divergent plot.

Rook, a max-level veteran of the FPS/milsim game QRF (Quick Response Force), has survived every map, every raid, every nightmare patch the devs have unleashed. Zombies, militias, quarantined islands-he's beaten them all. But during the new update Operation Cold Tide, something happens mid-evac. His SH-60 helicopter glitches mid-flight. He crashes in a forest he doesn't recognize. He feels pain-real pain. His HUD is gone. His weapons are real. And the world around him is not the game anymore. Now trapped in a medieval, pre-renaissance fantasy world filled with magic, monsters, kingdoms, and politics, Rook must survive using nothing but his modern gear, experience, and instincts. No respawns. No safe zones. No NPC backup. Just a gamer... ...thrown into a world that runs on steel and sorcery. Can a top-rank FPS operator survive a world powered by magic? Or will this new reality be his final mission?

In 2038, Alterra Robotics discovers a portal to a world untouched by modern industry, rich with magic, ancient creatures, and civilizations that have never heard of a megacorporation. To conquer this untouched land and resources, they deployed hundreds of thousands of androids as they slowly entrenched themselves in the world's history, undoubtedly changing the trajectory of their future. Alongside them are android inspectors-human employee who are tasked to evaluate their robotic workforces. Kusunoki Sakuta, one of Alterra's top android inspectors, is reassigned to Vernheit: a European-inspired nation on the continent of Caelum, home to Eisen Blut, Alterra's oldest and most powerful subsidiary. His job is straightforward. Evaluate the androids. Assess their performance, their mental stability, their physical condition. File the report. Go home. Most inspectors do exactly that. But Sakuta treated them as more than walking humanoid constructs. It's a habit that's earned him a reputation-and, apparently, a reassignment to one of the most politically significant postings on the continent. Alongside his corporate duty, he will also learn that... ... Perhaps being transported to an alternate fantasy world isn't as easy as it sounds.

The story continues with humanity as they face more challenges in the dangerous world of Magic and Gods. Unlike the native races, humanity cannot channel mana naturally and were viewed as inferiors because of it. But through sheer ingenuity, mankind have adapted it for technological use by crafting magi-tech devices that allow them to harness mana without ever casting a spell. This limitation paradoxically grants them a unique advantage to create weapons and technologies that rival and sometimes even surpass the might of demigods. However, there is still a very long road before true mastery can be claimed as mankind is far from reaching the pinnacle of magical understanding for higher levels of magic exist that render even their most advanced creations insignificant. In this world, there are beings whose power spans from continental devastation to planetary annihilation, capable of wiping out nations with a single strike. Beyond raw power, there are even Spiritual Lifeforms who can regenerate endlessly as long as their souls remain intact. Even more terrifying are the countless "hax" abilities that defy logic and science altogether spread throughout the higher civilizations of the New World. These include powers such as Soul Manipulation, Fate Manipulation, Reality Warping, Immortality, Time Manipulation, Intangibility, Death Manipulation, and even Existence Erasure itself. In comparison to these supernatural phenomena, humanity's magi-tech, though immensely superior to Modern Earth's technology, is still only scratching the surface of the vast and often incomprehensible potential of mana. From Demon Lords to Sea Monarchs, from True Dragons to the Old Gods, and even from Alien Invaders to Lovecraftian Horrors beyond the stars, humanity is tested endlessly both physically and mentally in this strange and unforgiving world. Can mankind as a whole overcome these dangers and guide a world filled with countless horrors toward peace?
