The Devil's Contract

Ethan Cross is dead. Or he should be. He wakes up in an unfamiliar, brutal world, the last vestiges of a car crash burning in his memory. A cryptic blue screen flickers into existence, proclaiming him a "Candidate" and demanding he become the strongest. But this isn't some game. This is a battleground of humans, demons, and gods. As Ethan grapples with impossible new realities, a horrifying truth emerges: his past life, his very existence, is being erased. He clings to a single, terrifying memory, desperately fighting against an unseen force that seeks to rewrite who he is, even as he's thrust into a battle for survival against creatures that shouldn't exist.
