Project Eclipsee

!!!! A dark psychological novel where mind games, risk, and human weakness collide, wrapped in a shōnen-style rise from nothing to the top !!! Ren Takahashi is an 18-year-old high school student living in Tokyo, trapped between two crushing realities: an uncertain future and a present that is slowly collapsing. A senior in his final year of high school, unemployed and without any practical skills, Ren survives on the small amount of money left behind by his deceased father. His mother—the only person giving meaning to his struggle—is permanently hospitalized, kept alive by medical machines. Every day is a countdown of bills, limited time, and relentless pressure. After countless failed attempts to find a job, Ren receives a mysterious invitation: a nationwide poker tournament, spanning all of Japan. This is no ordinary competition. It is a brutal selection process where only the coldest, most calculated, and most dangerous players can advance. Lose once—you’re eliminated. Make one mistake—you cease to exist. As Ren enters the tournament, he quickly realizes that poker is no longer about cards. It is about ego, control, and psychological destruction. Each round becomes a battle of wills, every opponent a monster shaped by trauma, obsession, and ruthless methods. Here, players are not gambling for money—they are gambling for identity. Yet with every victory, Ren drifts further away from the boy he once was. With every successful bluff, he begins to question whether he is still playing to survive… or playing to dominate.

REBORN: As A CORPORATE EMPEROR

Aryan was the "Golden Boy" of the Indian tech scene—until the people he trusted most cut his throat. In a sterile boardroom in Mumbai, his best friend and his lead investor didn't just fire him; they stripped him of his dignity, his shares, and his life’s work. As his heart failed under the crushing weight of their greed, Aryan realized the truth: In the world of modern business, being a "good founder" is just another way of saying you're a "good lamb." But the universe isn't finished with him. Aryan wakes up ten years in the past, back in 2016. He’s broke, he’s in a tiny apartment, and he’s holding a cracked laptop. But this time, he isn't alone. A glowing, imperial interface hovers in the air—the [Chakravartin Business System]. The System offers him a path that no MBA could ever teach. It grants him the strategies of the Gupta Empire, the legendary "Golden Age" of India. To win, Aryan must stop playing by the rules of Silicon Valley and start playing by the rules of Emperors. He must hunt down the Ten Gems—the SSR-tier geniuses hidden in the shadows of the corporate world. A disgraced architect of code, a ruthless master of logistics, a legendary keeper of the mint—together, they will form his Imperial Council. But building an empire costs more than money. Aryan is haunted by the memories of his future: the face of the woman he loved who was forced to marry his rival, the family he neglected, and the crushing loneliness of power. Can he build his "Pataliputra" without becoming the very monster who killed him? Every decision is a gamble. Every contract is a battlefield. As Aryan’s influence grows, his enemies from the future begin to notice a "ghost" in the market—a shadow player who knows their every move before they make it. The Paper Kings are gathering their armies. The corporate siege is coming. Will Aryan unite the "Four Quarters" of the market, or is he destined to die in a boardroom once again?
