The Quiet Bench

Born into a house where cruelty was routine and obedience was demanded, **Amane** has spent her entire life under the iron rule of her tyrannical father. To him, she was not a daughter, but a tool-someone to command, to control, to break. Her world is small, suffocating, and carved from silence and fear. That world changes the day **General Akira**, a decorated yet enigmatic officer of the Japanese army, steps across her father's threshold. Behind his measured gaze, he sees what others ignore-the bruises concealed, the spirit restrained, the life quietly collapsing. In one decisive moment, he claims her freedom... but freedom with Akira is not simple. Drawn into his shadowed orbit, Amane enters a life filled with dangerous secrets, unspoken desires, and a man whose kindness is as unsettling as his darkness. As she moves from captivity into a new, unfamiliar kind of possession, Amane must confront the most terrifying question of all: **Has she escaped a monster... or walked into the arms of another?** A story of trauma, power, and the razor-thin line between salvation and obsession, this dark romance thriller explores how love can bloom in the unlikeliest-and most perilous-places.

Now in a new game like world with no explanation, society will have to reform with the new rules of the world. ------------------------------------------------------------ My first time writing anything like this.

{69K words before locked] Fifty years ago, a shower of meteors descended from the skies. With them came a strange, colorful mist that wiped out ten percent of humanity and changed the world forever. Ten years later, the real nightmare began. From beyond the stars came the Abberants — massive, intelligent, ape-like creatures standing over nine meters tall. Stronger, faster, technologically superior, they declared themselves the rightful rulers of Earth and plunged humanity into a war it never asked for. On the brink of extinction, humanity survived only because of one miracle. Meta-Humans. Humans who awakened extraordinary abilities and pushed the Abberants back. Some shared their powers to protect mankind. Others hoarded them, turning strength into bloodline privilege. Ray Dawson was never one of them. At least, not at first. Just a boy with an ordinary life, working in secret to save enough money to buy an ability book and change his fate — without his mother ever knowing. The day his dream was supposed to come true, everything was taken from him. An Abberant attack left Ray with nothing but rage, grief, and a shattered future. Sent to a brutal survival camp meant to forge soldiers, Ray’s life should have ended quietly like countless others. Instead, an accident changed everything. ...

Su Bai has a 99% win rate. Nobody asks about the 1%. Not anymore. The last person who asked is currently serving four years for contempt, fraud, and a third charge that Su Bai invented on the spot and somehow made stick. He transmigrates into a parallel world on a Wednesday. By Friday he has won two cases. By the following Monday, his opposing counsel from the first case has been disbarred, his opposing counsel from the second case is under investigation, and the judge from both cases is in a holding cell thinking very hard about his life choices. Su Bai did not plan any of this. It simply kept being the logical next step. ~~~ "I strongly advise you to restrain yourself." Su Bai looks up from his notes. "From what, specifically?" The judge opens his mouth. Closes it. Opens it again — the universal expression of a man realizing, too late, that he has made a terrible mistake. That judge is in prison now. ~~~ There is an unspoken rule, passed between lawyers the way people pass warnings about bad weather — quietly, seriously, with the tone of someone who learned the hard way: If Su Bai is opposing counsel, settle. If you can't settle, flee. If you can't flee, at least update your will. Schedule: Saturday, Sunday
