Hybrid Paths

Cumulo_Digital
In a world where technology and government secrets intertwine beneath the surface, four young lives are unknowingly pulled into the heart of a hidden conspiracy. Ariane, a skilled swimmer, begins to notice strange changes in her body—strength, reflexes, instincts that defy logic. Alex, a street-smart courier, uses his superhuman agility to survive above the law, dancing through the skyline like a shadow. Daniele, a brilliant hacker, uncovers traces of illegal experiments buried deep within government firewalls. And Denilson, the most mysterious of them all, wakes every day in a sterile cell, haunted by a past he can't fully remember—yet one that holds the key to everything. Each of them carries a fragment of a buried truth, altered by an experiment they never consented to. As secrets unravel and unlikely alliances form, they must decide whether to run, resist, or rise into the roles fate may have chosen for them. Hybrid Paths is a gripping tale of identity, conspiracy, and survival, where nothing is what it seems—and true power may lie deeper within than any system can control.

Apocalypse Online: Starting with an SSS-level Gluttony Talent

In humanity’s final war against the Demon Lord, the strongest heroes fell—not by the enemy’s hand, but by their own, twisted into madness by a cruel illusion. Betrayal. Bloodshed. Despair… and then, silence. Only one person remained: Riley—the weakest warrior of them all. Powerless. Ignored. Forgotten. But he saw through the Demon Lord’s deception. The tyrant was on the brink of death—so weak even a fly could’ve finished him off. And Riley did just that, drawing every last ounce of strength to bite off the demon’s head. Victory? Not quite. A final, desperate strike from the Demon Lord pierced him from behind, killing him instantly. But fate wasn’t done with him yet. Riley awoke ten years in the past—when the online game [Apocalypse] was launched. Before demons descended. Before monsters overran the world. And this time, he wasn’t starting from nothing. He had a decade of experience—and a second chance. Even more shocking, he didn’t awaken his old D-rank Strength Boost talent. This time, he received something far more terrifying: an SSS-level Gluttony talent! He could now devour anything—monsters, items, talents, even traits—and gain their power. Ding! [You have devoured: Iron Fang Wolf] [Acquired: +4 Strength, +2 Agility, Skill: Bite (F-rank)] [You have devoured: Goblin Shaman Acquired: +8 Intelligence, Skill: Mana Bolt (E-rank), Talent: Minor Spellcasting Efficiency] [You have devoured: Flaming Salamander Drake] [Acquired: +22 Endurance, Trait: Dragon’s Resilience, Skill: Flame Breath (C-rank)] Now, there was no demon, no god, no monster who would stand in his way. He would devour everything—and save the world. But the power of Gluttony was a double edged sword, and if he wasn’t careful… he could be the one getting consumed.
