In a vast underground world known as The Ruins, sixteen-year-old Kiyoshi Vayne dreams of escaping the poverty of Floor 1 to reach the surface above. Living with his mother, Sara, he takes on low-paying jobs and dangerous quests in a society where survival depends on fighting monsters and navigating guild politics. After joining a goblin hunt, Kiyoshi accidentally delivers the final blow to a powerful boss, earning a rare item and attracting both admiration and hostility-especially from the elite Shadow Blade Guild. But his triumph turns tragic when he returns home to find his mother murdered with his own knife, leading to a swift and unjust sentence of execution. Framed and betrayed, Kiyoshi is saved at the last moment by Jade, a kind receptionist who confesses her love and gives him the tools to escape. As he flees into the depths of the dungeon with a black cloak and a new resolve, Kiyoshi sets out not only to survive-but to uncover the truth, reclaim his name, and challenge the cruel hierarchy of the world that cast him aside.

Lil' Red and her Umbrella
Lil' Red and her Hellhound take an unexpected path, becoming missionaries of chaos-assassins sworn to the silent, merciless ground called Death, a name as chilling as it is apt. This unlikely crew is composed of a girl wielding a scythe as her divine weapon, another who commands a monstrous hound with terrifying ease, and a boy who bends time to his will. The boy's power is a marvel and a terror-he can hasten your clock to the moment of your demise, stretch it so far that aging becomes a forgotten concept, or reverse it entirely to rewrite moments carved in stone. As time passes, Lil' Red's arrival on the desolate ground doesn't go unnoticed. She learns to endure, to survive at all costs, with no understanding of her weapon's origin or its mysterious function. None of it mattered, though, save for the simple fact that her heart continued beating. By a twist of fate-or was it?-Red encounters Enjin. Their meeting is tumultuous; what begins as a clash of enemies morphs into something far more complicated. The truth, hidden in the shadows, reveals this meeting wasn't an accident but a deliberate crossing of paths. Over time, the tension between them shifts into a bond that feels inevitable, dangerous, and undeniable. In her journey, Red comes to a sobering conclusion: it doesn't matter where you stand-on a glowing white sphere in the sky or the infernal furnace of the ground below. War, love, life, death-these universal forces are mirrors, reflecting the duality of existence. Every place, every being, and even the inanimate-whether breathing or still, divine or damned-is equal parts good and evil, beautiful and monstrous. In this fractured yet united cosmos, Lil' Red keeps moving, a soul inextricably tied to both chaos and survival. Would she find her answer in love, or was the war within and around her the only fate awaiting her? Only time-and the boy who mastered it-could tell.

Wisteria Whip: Because Normal Demons Are Overrated (Kny X Reader) Demon Slayer

Armed with sharp nails, a sarcastic inner monologue, and a baffling immunity to wisteria, Y/N must navigate a hostile world she barely understands (and can't even speak the language). Between, questioning why she craves fruits instead of blood, and trying not to flip off every monster that calls her "dessert," Y/N's new afterlife is equal parts hilarious and horrifying.

the zenith: benith the forgotten fials book 1
Mikko Cord is an ancient shadow-demon, once a weapon known as "The Implement" for the sinister organization, Zenith. Now uncursed, his only path to redemption is to hunt down the 27 Forgotten Files-records of the children the Zenith twisted into living anomalies. But the hunt quickly spirals into a cosmic war. Mikko rescues Lily, a girl who wields raw fire, and Willow, a quiet echo of time itself. Their family grows with the impossible: Kai, an infant born from a natural disaster, and Eleanor, a teenager misdiagnosed as insane whose mind is actually a doorway to other dimensions. Their power is their vulnerability. As Mikko battles Zenith's elite, he uncovers the truth: the organization isn't just harvesting trauma; they are pawns of the Architects, cosmic entities that feed on the essence of existence itself. The final mission takes a devastating toll when Mikko and Eleanor are forced to make an impossible choice in the toxic ruins of Chernobyl: erase a life (The Living Echo) to save the universe. The price of victory is sanctuary. In a final, desperate stand, the team is forced to abandon their home and their safety. Now, with the Den destroyed, the children are refugees, guided by a scholar, Kael, into an unknown dimension. Mikko is left behind, broken and marked. The Architects haven't killed him-they've tagged him, transforming the former Implement into a living beacon for the ultimate enemy: The Xylos. The children are safe, but only for now. Mikko is missing, a captive or a corpse, and the real harvest is about to begin. The question remains: Can a small group of traumatized anomalies survive in a terrifying new reality and save the man who became their father, before The Xylos find them?
