Time Lock

Ryxel
In a technologically advanced future where elite academies compete for prestige, eleven exceptional students receive a mysterious invitation to participate in The Chrysalis Initiative, a secretive tournament reputed to challenge the world’s most brilliant minds. Within an advanced simulation, the participants are assigned concealed roles as Hunters or Survivors. With no certainty of who stands on which side—and with roles capable of shifting between rounds—alliances begin to form even as doubt quietly takes root. As the tournament progresses, every interaction becomes a test of perception and every decision a calculated risk. Trust begins to erode, and the students find themselves questioning not only those around them, but their own judgment, instincts, and sense of self. In a system built upon deception and survival, the question is no longer who will win, but how far someone can be pushed before losing the very humanity they are trying to protect.

At fifteen, Patrik had nothing—a life in an orphanage and no family to call his own. Then he woke with thirty years of memories from another world, one where Pokémon were nothing more than fiction.

Live Streaming Academy

In the world of talents and superpowers, people awaken a talent varying by ranks around the age of fifteen. Some get their powers early during happy moments, while others unlock them during life-threatening situations. A few unlucky people never awaken any talent at all and become complete outsiders. Solomon awakened exactly on his fifteenth birthday. He received an incredibly rare SSS-rank talent and became famous all over the world. However, three years passed with him trying to figure out his power, but no one could help him understand how to use it. The public quickly turned on him and gave him the nickname 'Strongest Loser'. No guild, corporation, or organization wanted to recruit him despite being an SSS-rank talent holder. One day, when he was on his way home after getting rejected by the last guild in the city, a beggar came to him asking for money. He randomly helped the old beggar, who gave him a dirty paper in return. It was an invitation to the Live Streaming Academy, where only the chosen ones with an invitation could ever enroll. He thought that joining the academy might help him finally be able to use his talent. With no other choice left, Solomon decided to go there and test his luck. That single choice turned Solomon into a legend. He became the most feared for generations to come, and even when centuries passed, no one dared to say his name out loud, and he was only referred to as 'the one who shall not be named'. *** For Every 300 Power Stones = 1 Extra chapter.
