Yang Ming traveled to the Douluo World and got a lottery system for making memes. If he shouted out the classic lines of the characters in movies, TV series, novels, animations, and games, he could randomly get one of his abilities/items, and even summon the characters to appear! "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't bully the poor young man!" Congratulations to the host for saying Xiao Yan's classic lines and getting the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire! "Do you want to dance too?" Congratulations to the host for saying Uchiha Madara's classic lines and getting the Samsara Eye! "Be my son!" Congratulations to the host for saying Whitebeard's classic lines and getting the Tremor-Tremor Fruit! Making memes is fun, and it's fun to keep making memes. As long as I make memes fast enough, no one can surpass me!

Samantha never expected to find magic in her hometown, let alone in a dimly lit bar on a rainy Tuesday night. Yet here she was, perched on a barstool at the Black Swan, her world about to tilt on its axis. The air thrummed with an otherworldly energy she couldn't quite place. Ethereal dancers moved like smoke across the floor, their bodies fluid and mesmerizing. As Samantha nursed her drink, she felt the weight of curious stares prickling her skin. That's when she saw him. Marcus. A name she didn't know yet, but one that would soon be etched into her very soul. Their eyes locked across the crowded room, and Samantha's breath caught in her throat. He moved with predatory grace, all lean muscle and barely restrained power. Their first interaction was as intoxicating as it was bewildering. One moment, he was her gallant protector, rescuing her from an overly aggressive drunk. The next, his eyes hardened to chips of ice as he snarled, "Stupid girl," before melting into the shadows. Samantha's mind reeled, but her body hummed with an excitement she couldn't explain. Little did she know, this encounter was merely the first step into a world beyond her wildest fantasies – a realm where vampires ruled the night and pain blurred exquisitely with pleasure. As she delved deeper into this hidden society, Samantha found herself drawn to the intoxicating blend of power, submission, and supernatural allure. The crack of a whip, the whisper of leather, the exquisite sting of fangs – each sensation pushed her boundaries and ignited desires she never knew existed. But with every ecstatic high came the sobering reality of danger. Vampire politics were as deadly as they were intricate, and Samantha soon realized she was a pawn in a game where the stakes were life, death, and eternal servitude. As she left the Black Swan that night, Samantha couldn't shake the feeling that she stood on the precipice of something life-changing. She had no idea how right she was, or how deeply she would fall into a passionate, dangerous dance with forces beyond her imagination. The real question was: in this world where pleasure and peril intertwined so intimately, would she emerge empowered... or lose herself completely?

Who is best suited to care of the son of the strongest after his father is slain by evil? His mother? That would be the case—if she were still alive. His family? He has none. The government? No, they lack the strength to protect him from the same evil and the skill to train him. His father’s greatest nemesis? The only right answer.
