In a galaxy where magic and advanced technology coexist, Jason is a magician-for-hire and detective who makes a living uncovering the truth behind strange cases. But when a routine investigation leads him to a mysterious ancient station, Jason discovers evidence of the Astral Keys-seven powerful objects scattered across the galaxy. As a dangerous group begins hunting for the Keys, Jason and his new assistant Zoe are pulled into a mystery far bigger than either of them expected. Following clues left behind by those who came before them, they uncover hidden stations, forgotten secrets, and enemies willing to destroy anyone who gets in their way. With one Astral Key already in the hands of those searching for them, Jason must find the others before the people behind the hunt do. The deeper he investigates, the more he realizes that the truth behind the Astral Keys may be more dangerous than the power they contain.

In this world, your worth is determined by your Level. The EVE System assigns every person a Class at birth, deciding their future before they can even speak. Standing apart from the countless Classes are the NULL, those who were never assigned a Class and remain trapped at Level 0. Aster Zenith is one of them. At birth, the EVE System gave her nothing. And the prestigious Zenith family, including her own parents, quickly wrote her off. Yet Aster spent her entire life believing that the Reassessment might change everything. At sixteen, every student at the Progression Academy is required to undergo the mandatory ceremony, where the EVE System determines their permanent Class. For most, it is the day they finally discover their path in life. For Aster, it is her last hope. But when the ceremony ends, the result remains unchanged. Aster Zenith: Level 0. Still NULL. At Level 0, Aster is an impossibility in a world where Levels dictate status, opportunity, and respect. Her peers give her a nickname, Zero, and as far as Echelon is concerned, that is all she will ever be. But Aster refuses to accept that her story ends where everyone else's begins.

In the cold, rain-slicked sprawl of New-Urban, blood does not spill by chance—it flows by design. The entire metropolis, with its razor-sharp grid of intersecting streets, is built like a massive 19 \times 19 Go board. When a prominent real estate tycoon is found dead in the central square—his body encased in a waterproof white circle and a polished black Go stone pinned to his chest by a silver dagger—Detective Youssef realizes he isn't hunting a ordinary serial killer. He is facing a grandmaster playing as "Black," executing a high-stakes, lethal game across the city’s blueprint: * The streets are the grid lines. * The districts are the territories. * And human lives are the stones. With every new body dropped at a strategic intersection, Youssef is forced into playing "White," locked in a desperate defensive race against time. One wrong move means suffocating a victim's "liberties"—their very breath—and surrendering an entire neighborhood to darkness. The bloody trial leads Youssef straight to the "Nine Dragons," an ancient Go club run by a blind master, unearthing a dark secret from an infamous 1835 match known as the "Blood-Spilling Game." A deeply buried vendetta has awakened from the shadows, seeking to rewrite history in blood. Who is manipulating the black stones from behind the scenes? And can Youssef decipher the pattern before the killer closes the trap and claims total control of the board?

Aislyn Hart has spent twenty-three years being ordinary; just finished her residency with her general practitioner diploma in hand, she comes home to assist as camp nurse, daughter of the woman who built this place from nothing, the tall, dark-haired anomaly in a family she's never quite matched. Then the dreams start: two moons, silver water, a war she's never seen and can't forget. Then the fire she can't explain. Between the boy who charms her without trying and the one who can't stand to look at her... and can't stop. Aislyn learns the truth her parents never could tell her. She isn't from here. She was carried through a dying portal as a newborn, the last gift of a mother who died to save her from a war that followed her anyway. Now that war has found camp. Michael wants what her blood carries. Jaxon has wanted her... bond-deep since the day they met, even if his pride wouldn't let her see it. She was told once that some things aren't built to blend in. They're built to stand out, stand tall, and find the ones who stand with them. She's about to find out exactly what she's built for.

"Am I even human?" Teal Raud was a normal student during the day but as the sky turned dark the nightmares haunted him, nightmares that were not remembered when he woke up. To top it all he was getting constant headaches which wasn't normal for him, he also noticed the sky was pink which no one else noticed. 'Am I seeing things? What is happening to me?' On the same day after school, he was walking out with his friend, the headache grew awfully painful, like a rusted sword was piercing through, to add to the sensation of headache his arm felt like it was on fire. The hot sensation made the skin melt, revealing something that questioned his existence. To solve the mystery behind his body, Teal and Van start their investigation to find the truth. Their quest leads to more questions about their surroundings and reality. But Teal isn't the only one suffering from it.

About Sci-Fi

Science fiction is the genre of the big what-if. Take one change — faster-than-light travel, a hostile first contact, an AI that wakes up, a colony ship that arrives to find the plan already broken — and follow it all the way down. The best sci-fi isn't about the gadgets; it's about the people forced to live inside a world the change created, and the choices that world makes impossible or newly urgent.

The genre spans a huge range of shapes: sweeping space opera in the tradition of Dune and The Expanse, hard sci-fi that takes its physics seriously, cyberpunk and its neon dystopias, post-apocalyptic survival, and near-future speculation that reads like next year's headlines. On serial platforms, sci-fi pairs naturally with progression and system fiction — a lot of the biggest LitRPG and system-apocalypse stories are science fiction wearing an RPG interface.
