Li Wei's life falls apart when his parents pass away, leaving him with a mountain of debt and no prospects. Adopted by a distant uncle living in New York, Li Wei travels to America expecting a fresh start. What he finds instead is an uncle who bears an uncanny resemblance to the fictional Don Quixote -- a man with grandiose dreams, absurd plans, and a habit of tilting at windmills that only he can see. But beneath the eccentricity lies a man of genuine warmth and surprising wisdom. Li Wei's uncle may be delusional about some things, but his instincts about people, opportunities, and the American Dream prove uncannily accurate. Together, the odd couple navigates the chaos of New York City -- from shady business deals to cultural misunderstandings to a cast of characters that could only exist in a city this wild. As Li Wei grows from a debt-ridden orphan into a capable young man, he discovers that his uncle's quixotic dreams are not madness but a different kind of vision. The man who everyone dismissed as crazy becomes the catalyst for Li Wei's transformation, and the American adventure that started as a last resort becomes the journey of a lifetime. Sometimes the best guides are the ones who see windmills as giants.

At the very end of a long, long peace, a forgotten goddess murmured: 'I found you.' The Goddess of War has slept for centuries, her name erased from history, her temples reduced to ruins. But the age of turmoil she was created to quell is approaching, and the goddess needs an apostle -- a mortal vessel to carry her will into a world that has forgotten what war truly means. The mortal she chooses is unremarkable by every measure -- no noble blood, no exceptional talent, no destiny written in the stars. What he possesses is something rarer: an unwavering will and a moral compass that does not bend under pressure. The Goddess of War does not need a warrior. She needs a leader, and the apostle she anoints is about to become the most important figure in an age that no one is prepared for. As the apostle awakens to his divine mission, he must navigate a world of political intrigue, military alliances, and supernatural threats that the long peace has left humanity unprepared to face. The Goddess of War guides him from within, but her power comes with a cost -- the closer he draws to her divine essence, the more his humanity is tested. The apostle must find the balance between godly power and mortal compassion before the coming turmoil consumes everything.

He had plans -- simple plans involving pastries and a quiet morning. But the black cubes show up before he can get his breakfast, and nothing is simple anymore. The cubes are the heralds and guides of the Trials of Defiance, a cosmic challenge that has existed since before recorded history. They have decided that his time is up, and participation is not optional. The Trials of Defiance are not ordinary challenges. Each one is a loop -- a repeating scenario that must be solved through increasingly creative means. Fail, and the loop resets. Succeed, and a shard of power is granted. The loops grow more complex, more dangerous, and more psychologically devastating with each iteration, testing not just physical ability but mental resilience. As he accumulates shards and grows stronger through the trials, he discovers that the loops are not random tests -- they are fragments of a reality that was shattered eons ago. Each trial piece contains a memory, a truth, or a power that belonged to a being of immense importance. The man who just wanted pastries must now assemble the shards of a broken reality while surviving trials designed to shatter the mind as thoroughly as they shattered the world.

Elric Voss is sixteen years old, two ranks above useless, and he wakes up one hour before everyone around him dies. The Caelith Mourne expedition has camped at the base of a sky-fall, and the catastrophic event that will kill every member is imminent. Elric has sixty minutes to save himself and everyone else, and his magical abilities are barely sufficient to light a candle. But Elric possesses something that transcends magical talent: an infinite potential that the conventional ranking system cannot measure. His two-rank-above-useless classification is not a limitation but a calibration error. When the sky-fall hits and the crisis demands more than rank, Elric's infinite potential activates, granting him access to magical depths that senior mages spend lifetimes trying to reach. As Elric survives the catastrophe that killed the expedition and begins to explore his true abilities, the magical world's ranking system proves woefully inadequate for what he has become. The boy who was classified as nearly useless becomes the most unpredictable magus in existence, wielding magic that does not fit into any category the academies have defined. Magus Infinite is not just a title -- it is a statement about what happens when potential has no ceiling.

In a world where words carry weight, a single moment changes everything. 'Author, are you actually a demon? My eyes are swollen and it's all your fault!' Haruto was just an ordinary high schooler trying to survive after his father's business collapsed and his family fell into debt. Then he discovers that the light novels he writes have the power to influence a parallel world -- every story he publishes creates real events in a dimension that mirrors his imagination. The parallel world takes his fiction literally. Heroes rise from his character descriptions. Villains manifest from his antagonists. Wars erupt from his plot conflicts.

As Haruto's stories grow more complex and the parallel world's consequences become more severe, he must navigate the impossible responsibility of a creator whose imagination has real victims. The light novelist who wrote for fun discovers that storytelling is the most powerful weapon in existence, and the parallel world's inhabitants are demanding a better author.
