The Fake Hero
'Ding!'
[31st December, 23:00, suicide reminder.]
Claude, a young and brilliant surgeon who is well-known among his peers, has finally decided to end his life tonight. On the beautiful new year’s eve, under the bright stars and fireworks celebrating the joy of life, he stepped onto the hospital rooftop in an attempt to take his own life.
To his surprise, what awaits him on top was a ‘lurker’.
A being that appeared many years ago out of nowhere, who feasts specifically on human blood.
They’re vicious, powerful, unique, and most importantly, smart. After all, they were once humans, disabled humans, to be exact. They gain power according to their disability.
Blind? They got night vision.
Deaf? They got super hearing.
Paralyzed arms? They now have four arms that are sharper than swords.
Although they had the same disabilities when they were humans, no lurker harbors the same power. One disability can lead to countless types of power, which humans still haven’t figured out how.
After barely escaping death due to a stranger called Ajax, Claude comes to learn the fact that his dead brother had a second life as a ‘lurker executioner’ that he wasn’t aware of. And, most importantly, the fact that those ‘lurkers’ have something to do with his brother’s death.
“I will wipe out every single lurker on earth.”
With his newfound hatred and anger, will Claude be able to kill all lurkers who are living among humans, disguised as one of them? And will he be able to find a bonded family within this organization called the ‘Lurker Executioner’?
… But, what if lurkers are not that black and white?

Hello hello there~
This is my second book, and it’s more of a passion project! :3 So please be nice to me~
Update will be pretty slow, since I will take my time to carefully write and plan this. This will contain pretty dark themes, morally questionable scenarios (but absolutely no r*pe and stuff, I mean just like situations where you don’t really know who’s the good guy and who’s the bad guy), but also cute, warmsies-warmsies moments hehe!
[Trigger warning: mention of suicide on the first chapter]
Cover is drawn by me since I don’t wanna steal art, I respect all lines of work, even though I know it’s not as good as professionally made covers :3
Thank you for docaqui and my friend for helping me with the font!
The detailed synopsis is very interesting and looks promising. Looking forward to the progress of the story and the development details of the characters. [img=recommend]
Another story from mozza beb💕💕 From these 3 chaps and it's really pulling me in already! The writing is super good and electrifying, the world building and all too! Characters are well describe and Where is LUCIUS? I WANNA KNOW ALREADY! stay strong my boy Claude💜 anw, this one is a good story, I am sure you won't regret it once picking it up（〜^∇^)〜 and thank you mozza for creating another masterpiece!
Such an interesting story. The beginning is good but I feel more interesting parts will be coming soon. Can't wait to see the future development. Good luck author
this is the type of story that will hook u up and will want you to read more.. sadly it only have three chaps.. i will wait to reach the certain chaps to binge read! love the cover too.. those abs r
The writing quality is passable, but it needs some polishing. Some sentences felt strange and entire paragraphs felt a little clunky to read. I had to buffer and read over a few sentences because my brain automatically filled in blanks or changed strange word choices to better fit the flow of the sentence. Stability of updates should be fine as long as you update at least once a day. Story development is well paced. The three chapters currently available flow into each other rather seamlessly, the writing quality being the only thing holding it back. Character design. . . There's not much to speak of. There are concise descriptions of their features, such as their eye color or hair color, but not much else. Are they tall? Lanky? Muscular? What kind of hairstyle do they have? I found myself asking these questions because I can't remember any mention of such things. A vague picture of the characters form in my mind, but I can only really see them as concepts and personalities thus far. World background is pretty superb, with both a shocking and interesting premise. What is the world at large like? Does everyone fear the looming threat, or do the majority simply not care until they themselves or even someone close gets affected? Why is there a threat? The story made me ask these questions, and I hope to see the answers eventually.

Ah, so you've finally arrived? I've been waiting for you, let me catch you up to speed and present why this story might be your next favorite. Story Development: 5/5 This story is surrounded by mystery and questions that'll leave you hungry for more. The initial three chapters showed great progress that seamlessly pulled me along, curiouser and curiouser of what comes next. The pacing is superb. Character Design: 5/5 Everyone of us is familiar with the DEFAULT BLANK MC that you self-insert yourself into. Is this what you'll get? NO. Claude has a well-designed background and story, and YET if you even have an ounce of empathy in your dark shriveled heart, then you'll be able to empathize and realize how well-written he is. He's an actual person you can genuinely root for as the story unravels itself. World Background: 5/5 You'll definitely want to dive into this world and understand its intricacies. Somehow, it reminds me of Sweet Home (Webtoon) with the idea of Lurkers and Seraph of the End in the idea of Executioners with Pacts Stability of Updates: N/A This is a personal project of the Author Mozza_Mello so if you've come here to complain about the update speed, then it's not worth it. Let's imagine ourselves as people who decided to hitchhike a ride for free in Author Mozza_Mello's personal car (writing for their own enjoyment). If you're impatient, then you can go down now and find an Author who's driving a bus (writing to market) to save us the heartache. Writing Quality 4.5/5 It's well-written, understandable and coherent. and while there are sentences that may seem a bit clunky (can be rewritten), the idea gets across well. TL;DR Answer: YES! Go on and read it already! (or save in Library!)
The idea and the snyopsis of the story is quite intriguing. The cover is done well too but then its Mozza so what else would you expect it to be? Though its just the first few chapters, the pace and world-building of the story keeps you wanting moarrr. Keep it up babe😍
