Stuck on a desolate Earth, a strange android wanders into a commune full of people struggling to survive. Among them is a young girl named Mara. As Vera works to help the commune, she and Mara become as close as an android and a person can become. Androids don't contain the aptitude for emotions like mankind-that is, until a strange alien signal reaches them. The problem is, it's encoded, and Vera is the only one who is capable of decoding it. The commune, led by Professor Gregory Platt, begin pushing Vera to communicate with whoever is sending the signal, desperate for their own futures. Switching her attention from her normal duties to this enormous task, but when she does Vera discovers a troubling secret behind it, one that she will not reveal to the commune. Now struggling to lie to the people depending on her, and help the aliens on the other end, Vera unlocks the door to her emotions.

LOSS System: Last Store Standing
Jack didn't ask to save the world. He just wanted to run his convenience store in peace. Then he woke up in a wasteland. No town. No neighbors. No Wi-Fi. Just cracked red earth, dead trees, and a voice in his head calling itself the Limitless Omniversal Supply System. The LOSS System. Jack laughed for a very long time. The system was not amused. Now he has a fully stocked store, unlimited water and electricity, and a system that's somehow both all-powerful and deeply offended by everything he says. To survive in a world where the average temperature hits 52°C, Jack will have to sell supplies, make allies, build shelter, and figure out why his little store might be the first step toward bringing a dead world back to life.

As the Villain, Shouldn't There Be a Limit to My Power?
Ron transmigrates into the world of his favorite dark fantasy game-and straight into the body of its first doomed villain. His opening scene? A kidnapped saintess lies beneath him, five hundred holy knights are already surrounding the building, and the game's strongest protagonist is only ten minutes away from chopping him into pieces. The system gives him two choices: 「Violate the future White Saintess, die a villain, and unknowingly save the world. 」 Or... 「Fight fate itself and survive. 」 Ron chooses to live. Using rather improper means to take away a nun's purity-how many years in prison would that earn? Looking at the nun lying before him, Ron couldn't help but seriously ponder that question! "Beautiful Miss Nun, rest assured, I have absolutely no interest in polluting your soul!" Armed with knowledge of every hidden treasure, every secret route, every overpowered exploit, and even an enhancement bug the developers never fixed, he begins rewriting the world's destiny. But surviving his scripted death is only the beginning. The repaired worldline wants him dead. A mysterious "Repairman" is correcting reality. A system unlike anything he expected is pushing him toward impossible conquest missions. And the women destined to become the world's greatest heroes... are beginning to see the infamous villain in a very different light. In a world where fate has already decided everyone's ending, Ron intends to break every rule, exploit every loophole, and turn the worst possible start into the greatest advantage. After all... If the world is just a game, then no one knows how to beat it better than the player who already cleared it.
