Synopsis Haneul Academy is not a school - it is a gilded cage built to protect the rot of South Korea's elite. Hidden high in the mountains, it is secretly ruled by the Four Pillars: a corrupt Chairman, a Mafia Don laundering black money, a ruthless tycoon, and the unseen puppeteer known only as The Elephant. Into this fortress steps Lee Yun Soo - shy, handsome, and marked by a tragic past that makes him seem harmless. To his peers, he is desirable. Forgettable. Safe. That illusion is intentional. As Yun Soo climbs Haneul's brutal hierarchy, he begins to manipulate heirs, dismantle rivals, and rewrite the invisible rules that govern power itself. Every bond is calculated. Every weakness is a weapon. In a place designed to create monsters, Yun Soo doesn't merely survive - he evolves. But absolute control demands a terrible price. As secrets surface and loyalties fracture, the line between predator and prey begins to blur, forcing a single question to the forefront: When a perfect strategist conquers everything, what remains to save him from himself? A dark psychological thriller about power, deception, and the cost of winning.

After losing his entire planet in a single, brutal moment, he stands alone in the ruins-broken, furious, and betrayed by the very creator he served for millennia. The universe expects him to grieve. Instead... he declares war on the heavens. When the all-powerful Creator refuses to bring back his family, his lover, and his people, something inside him snaps. If the divine won't save what he loves, then he'll tear reality apart until it does. Armed with cosmic power, burning hatred, and a heart shattered beyond repair, he enters a new world-one that has no idea what kind of monster is about to arrive. His first victim? A world that never stood a chance.

He honed a twisted version of the Niko Style under Tiger Niko, acquiring the personality of a modern god and the skills of a demon. Before he died on that rock, a System offered him a deal: A second chance in the world of an old Academy visual novel game he used to enjoy. His wish? Money, women, and a happy, chaotic life. He wakes up as the game's "Villainous Aristocrat," a character designed to lose to the generic protagonist, Kenichi Shirahama. The original story is about to begin, but Haruka is rewriting the script. He has Gojo Satoru's powers, an arsenal of fighting styles, and a list of over 100 women he intends to make his harem members-from Miu Furinji and Yoko Littner to Wednesday Addams and Princess Jasmine. Armed with a new attitude, a love for junk food, and the power to bend reality, Haruka isn't here to play the hero. He's here to form a cult, take over the world, and build the ultimate Absolute Universe harem. The protagonist is about to meet his new final boss.

Some say Aria Thorne was doomed from the start. The underworld had always had its grip on her, after all. It had claimed her as a child of its own, a weapon. She was controlled, strings pulled like a puppet from a higher power. Others say Aria chose the darkness. That it was her doing all along. Every life she took, every soul she stole, it was all because of her very own twisted mind. Some would say she never had darkness in her at all. It was an act, part of the plan. Every lie she told, every soul she manipulated, it was all false. None of it was true. Aria Thorne was simply a young girl used as a pawn to make a good story. They'd be wrong, of course. Aria Thorne did have darkness in her. She alway did, she always will. It was all true. She had done everything they say she did. It's true she befriended Percy Jackson and his friends. Gained their trust. All while feeding information back to Luke. It's true she went in there to destroy them from the inside out. But even worse, it's true she destroyed herself along the way. It's true she let the ghosts consume her. It's true she was slowly going insane. And it's true she slowly fell for Percy Jackson along the way. No matter their opinion on how it happened, most still believed that Aria began a horrible person. No matter how hard she tried, Aria Thorne would always have darkness in her heart. Whether it was all her fault, well, read it for yourself. I'll let you decide. (Percy Jackson and the Olympians) (The Titans Curse ~ The Last Olympian) (Percy Jackson x Fem!OC) (Enemies to lovers)
