[Warning: Mature Content 18+, Harem, System, No NTR!] He was only ten years old when his world turned to ash. Hidden behind a door, shivering with helplessness and fear, the boy peered through the keyhole and watched his parents die. He never knew who killed them. He never even saw the faces of those who took everything from him. The terror was too much for a ten-year old boy. His mind shattered, erasing that night from his memory. And then everything was blank, darkness in front of his eyes as he lost consciousness. When his eyes opened again, a man stood before him, a stranger with a gentle smile and eyes filled with something strange… pity? Or something else? "What happened here boy?” “Happened where?” “You don’t remember, do you?" "Remember what…? Where is father? My Mother?” "I guess this is for the best.” “Good boy. Your father was my dearest friend… and now, you are my responsibility. From now on, you will be my son." "You have no one left, boy… but I can make sure no one ever takes anything from you again." The man said gently. And then that man forged him into something inhuman. A weapon honed to perfection, a shadow lurking in the underworld. The mere whisper of his name - Draugr, A ghost that never truly dies, sent grown men into cold sweats, their legs trembling beneath them. The boy soon outgrew his master and carved his own legend in blood. But all this while he never stopped searching—for the ones who killed his parents, for the truth, for revenge. And finally, after fifteen years of silence, he was close. The last clue he needed was just within his grasp. It was so close, yet just an inch out of his grasp. He was ambushed, a trap he never saw coming. Wounded, bleeding out, fighting for his life against an army of men and women eyeing to claim his life, he should have died. But fate had something else stored for him. Barely holding onto life, he stumbled into a girl—fragile-looking, yet completely unafraid of the monster before her. She didn’t run. She didn’t scream. Instead, she smiled. She saved him. Took him to a hospital. And as he lay unconscious, she made her plans. But when he woke up… He had lost everything, He remembered nothing. Not just the truth of his parents' murder. Not just the years of searching. Not just the enemies and allies he'd made along the way. Not even his own name. Twenty-five years of his life—wiped clean. Now, in a world that fears his very name, with ghosts of a past he can no longer remember hunting him in the shadows—he must decide: Is he still the Draugr they all fear? Or is he just a man searching for the pieces of himself? And who is the girl who stole his fate and bound it to hers? ******

Qin Guan, an elite attorney basking in professional glory, crafts the perfect facade of a devoted husband and doting father. Yet behind the mahogany doors of his law firm, he succumbs to a dangerous liaison with his young assistant. What begins as a clandestine tryst spirals into catastrophe when a passion-fueled game leaves his lover lifeless, her last breath strangled by the silk scarf he'd once gifted her.  As he erases every trace of the crime, Qin discovers that true disappearance is an illusion. Cryptic blackmail notes materialize in locked briefcases. Surveillance footage from the murder night resurfaces with impossible edits.

Someone is meticulously reconstructing his sins, thread by thread, turning his legal genius against him. But in this game of shadows, the most terrifying question remains: Is the puppeteer orchestrating his downfall a vengeful stranger... or the reflection staring back from his gilded office mirror?

When William first met Sebastian John, he had two souls, and when he was dying in his hands, both had one and a half. William Ultras was no more than an ordinary jeweler, so ordinary that no one, not even himself, ever thought he was the reincarnation of the lover of Ozhem’s legendary wizard. He dreamed of a long life with a happily ever-after ending, but when the Shadow Army emerged from the deep darkness they had waited in for centuries, they placed a coffin carrying the name of William Ultras in the center of Ozhem. The Ozhemians didn’t hesitate to surrender the next victim to his true master, Sebastian John, whom they believed was the reason for this everlasting peace. But William’s greed to breathe drove him to Sunless, the land of eternal darkness, where he sought the help of Griffin, the ruling wizard, to end the cursed circle of his deaths. But Sebastian John, sensing William’s absence, awoke early to bring him back before the fifth day of the eleventh month. By giving up his vision and breaking the spell of Sebastian’s mesmerizing eyes, William has now bought himself enough time to recall his past lives and answer why he must sacrifice himself to Sebastian John for the twenty-first time.
