The system offers him unlimited wealth by drawing, but with a peculiar condition: he must constantly flaunt his newfound riches. Initially hesitant, Minho accepts the offer out of desperation, hoping to secure a better future for himself. As Minho's life transforms into a whirlwind of luxury, he grapples with the moral implications of his newfound wealth. He must navigate the challenges of maintaining his lavish lifestyle while trying to remain grounded and true to himself. Along the way, he encounters both envy and admiration, forming complex relationships with his peers and family. The system's demands push Minho to the brink, forcing him to question the true meaning of happiness and success. As he becomes increasingly entangled in the system's web, Minho must decide whether the pursuit of wealth is worth sacrificing his integrity and the relationships he holds dear. *[It's a BL Story] as per input in the tags (Yaoi) *The picture is not mine. #CTTO

Zafar Iqbal—cold, ruthless, and heartbreakingly handsome. A man whose heart turned to ice the day his wife walked out, leaving him alone with their newborn son. Now a powerful businessman and a devoted single dad to little Ezra, Zafar has no place in his life—or heart—for love. Enter Zoha. A gentle soul with a tragic past, she has known loss more than love. After her parents died in a car crash, she learned to survive alone. Soft-spoken, brave, and full of hidden strength, she joins Zafar’s company not knowing her life is about to change forever. But love doesn’t come easy. Especially when Zafar’s haunting past comes knocking—his ex-wife, who owns a rival company, wants him back. And she’ll do anything to ruin Zoha. What starts as a cold war of emotions slowly melts into something dangerous, possessive, passionate—and real. This is not just a love story. It’s a journey through hate, jealousy, healing, and the kind of love that only comes once in a lifetime.

For a thousand years, gods and devils clashed in endless war. The gods triumphed. The devils fell. But victory came at a cost. Three eternal beings the Creator, the Preserver, and the Destroyer stand above all worship. When the devils begged for one last chance, it was the Destroyer who answered. He gave them a book a book of games where battles were fought not with swords, but with fate itself. The gods sealed it away forever. All but one page. Torn from the book's heart, the page carries a power no god can control. Cursed to survive, a wretched devil carried it into the human world. Through that page, his soul lived on passing from conqueror to conqueror, from Alexander to Napoleon, bending history itself. Now the gods sense the truth: the game is not over. Their answer? Create their own chosen humans to play against the devil's soul. The world is the board. Humanity the pieces. And the first move... has already been made.

Na noite em que fui intimidada e deixada para me afogar em uma banheira, Lucas me puxou da beira da morte. Eu acreditava que ninguém jamais poderia me amar — exceto talvez Kayla, minha melhor e única amiga. O mundo tinha feito questão de me mostrar meu lugar: uma garota acima do peso e indesejada, indigna de afeto, muito menos de paixão. Mas então surgiu Lucas. Divino em sua beleza, e ele não apenas salvou minha vida — ele me deu tudo que eu sempre havia desejado. Uma casa luxuosa. Refeições orgânicas preparadas especialmente para mim. O tipo de cuidado com que eu só havia fantasiado. E daí se ele não é humano? E daí se seu amor vem com segredos? Parei de me importar no momento em que suas mãos primeiro removeram a água dos meus lábios.

Before he secures anything in the physical world, Joseph spends time in the spirtual world to establish his goals.

As long as he has spent time in the spiritual world, he has established strongholds and allies.
