He was summoned to save the world… but his greatest threat isn’t the Demon King — it’s the women who love him.Kai Veyron was just a delivery guy on Earth. But in the magical world of Aethria, he’s “The Chosen Hero” — gifted with ridiculous, godlike powers that he can’t control and didn’t ask for. He defeats monsters by sneezing, trips over relics that explode, and somehow charms every powerful woman he meets.Now surrounded by a beautiful, deadly harem — a tsundere princess, a cold-blooded assassin, a genius mage, a seductive demoness, and a broken childhood friend — Kai thinks he’s finally found purpose, friendship… maybe even love.But peace has a price.As whispers of prophecy grow louder, the women begin to ask the unthinkable:“What if the hero himself is the final calamity?”They laugh with him by day… and plot his death by night.And the worst part?Kai already knows.And he still protects them — even if it means his own downfall.

I need to know what they are first before I can say anything. So, what are the conditions?”The man stood up from the sofa gracefully. His long black coat hung down to his knees as he stood majestically towards the large window pane. He looked at the scenery out of the window with his back facing Allynna.“First, you need to move to the Capital.”“Second. I want you to marry me willingly.” He said without looking at her.

His siblings stood near death yet deep in his Empty Core, an old force stirred awake.[ SHADOW EXTRACTION SYSTEM ACTIVATED ]Leon takes energy from whatever he defeats. Each time a creature falls, he gains more strength. As shadows vanish into him, he drifts toward a mystery - something waits in a space beyond places: a seat atop no land, while a voiceless headpiece calls out to him through empty dark.Yet taking what’s not yours brings trouble.On top of everything else, the Evernight Alliance caught wind. Not just vampires - werewolves too. Old creatures that oughta be myths are poking at the city’s walls, messing up dungeon cores, chasing whatever’s pumping out that dark energy signal.Hunting for him.Leon’s stuck in a risky move, quietly getting stronger so he can shield his folks, hitting school while sneaking around to pull out shadows, acting powerless even though some old, grim force now names him successor.That F-Rank tag? Total fake. His Empty Core isn't broken, it fights. Each darkness he swallows drags him nearer to a reality he can’t face yetNot every seat of power fits a hero.Some crowns come from shadows, built on bones.Some kids just inherit stuff whether they like it or not.The Crimson Moon marked the start. What’s coming next? Things are about to heat up.
