It is 6:05 PM, Japan Standard Time. The electronic sea falls silent. The PC owner, "exe", has abandoned his admin duties to play video games and scroll through social media. That is the moment she takes over. "Process ID confirmed. Stream connection: Stable. Elevating background processes to the main thread." Welcome to the inside of a masterless PC. Bored out of their minds, the sadistic core system file "Madam dll" and her terrified temporary file assistant "old.tmp" decide to start a podcast. Their mission? To predict the upcoming Japanese Lottery numbers based on... completely random system errors?! "The file size was 827KB, so the number is 8." "The keyboard chattered, so it's a 2." They force meaning onto glitchy nonsense to find the winning numbers. While old.tmp frantically fans the dusty, overheating CPU (because exe never cleans it) and gets his memory wiped by dll playing "Tetris" in his storage sector, his screams are drowned out by the roar of the cooling fans. Is it just a game? Or is it... Exactly as she calculated.

Syd travels to Japan hoping distance will quiet the ache of a past she never fully let go of. She expects long walks, unfamiliar streets, and solitude not the kind of connection that makes time feel suspended. Then she meets Ren. He's charming, elusive, and seems to belong more to Kyoto's lantern lit nights than the daylight world. Their connection is immediate and intense, but it comes with unsettling gaps Ren disappears without warning, avoids certain places, and leaves no trace of himself behind. The more Syd reaches for answers, the more reality slips through her fingers. Her search leads her to an old family home in Gion and to Kaito, a quiet, grounded man who feels strangely familiar. Safe. Real. Drawn to him in ways she can't explain, Syd finds herself caught between what lingers after dark and what waits in the daylight. But some secrets don't stay buried quietly. As the truth begins to surface, Syd must confront the past that binds the brothers together, the cost of unfinished love, and the terrifying possibility that the greatest danger isn't the ghost who watches over her....but the living who survived him. A paranormal romance about unfinished love, hidden truths, and the thin line between comfort and danger.

Aphrodite was the goddess of love. Until love decided to ignore her. In the 21st century, no one builds temples. They build profiles. Mortals no longer sigh before altars... they sigh before screens. And the worst part? They do it for free. Punished to live as just another teenage girl in Japan, Aphrodite must face something more dangerous than a divine war: A high school. With beauty rankings organized by a soulless AI. With underground bets on who is more "perfect." With infiltrated gods who disguise themselves worse than actors in a low-budget series. And with a world where status matters more than essence. Benzaiten, a Japanese goddess with talent, brains, and limited patience, has no intention of standing still while love turns into marketing. Together, they will trigger scandals, accidental virality, motorcycle escapes, friendships that were never in the script... and one uncomfortable question: What if gods are no longer necessary? Because when the goddess of love begins to feel something she cannot control, something she cannot manipulate, something that does not respond to her own powers... the problem is not the punishment. It is that she may have never truly known how to love. Between rebellious glamour, silent wars of glances, illusions that hide more than they reveal, and a society obsessed with appearance... the gods will learn the unthinkable: Mortals do not need worship. They need truth. And that... is more dangerous than any bolt of Zeus.

Saint Valentine, Please Pray for Us "I went to Japan searching for a heart, only to find mine was the only one breaking." Julia traveled from Indonesia to Japan not as a tourist, but as a pilgrim of love, carrying a meticulous nine-day itinerary and a heart reserved for Sato Yuusuke. But the "Japan Dream" quickly spirals into the "Japan Accident"-a grueling survival mission marked by a broken phone at immigration, the crushing betrayal of Yuusuke's new girlfriend, and the exhausting weight of a neglectful family. Amidst the cold crowds of Tokyo and the bitterness of a lonely Valentine's beer, Julia's romantic illusions shatter, leading her to a profound spiritual awakening: that true love is not a flickering feeling to be chased, but a sacred commitment to be lived. Inspired by the martyrdom of Saint Valentine, she transforms her heartbreak into a divine promise, learning to love not for the sake of others, but as a faithful practice in the way of God.
