Born into a lower middle class family, Ace Lander grew up being told there was a simple formula for success: get an education, graduate, and work hard to build a prosperous future. But that formula failed him during the final stretch of his senior year when a local gang targeted him, putting everything he had and was building towards at risk.

Trapped and desperate, Ace felt his life spiraling out of control—until Ria Hart, a fellow classmate, discovering Ace's innate aptitude to become a Curse Master, a being capable of wielding curse energy and abilities but haunted by Curselings, took pity and introduced him to the secret world hidden beneath the mundane surface of their world, the World of Curses. 

Awakening as a Curse Master, Ace discovers he possesses an extraordinary innate curse tool: the Cursed Toybox. This tool comes with a unique class, Toymancer, granting Ace powers unlike any curse master the world has seen before. The Cursed Toybox allows him to animate and actualize toys, transforming them into powerful, living beings bound to his will.

From overpowered heroes to legendary gods, any toy that falls into Ace's Cursed Toybox springs to life with powers beyond one's imagination but bound to him in eternal servitude. Armed with his Toy Summons, Ace must navigate the perilous world of curses, protect his loved ones, and reclaim control of his destiny before the gang—and the darkness of the hidden world—consume him entirely.

The Strongest Curse Master

As the guards scrambled to open the gates noticing Ace on the passenger side of the golf cart, Matthews raised an eyebrow, her sharp gaze flicking toward Ace. "Have you been here before? The guards seem to recognize you."

Ace hesitated for a split second before replying. "My aunt and Janice Jane are friends," he admitted, realizing there was no point in trying to hide it. Janice would probably spill the beans the moment they met anyway.

"Janice Jane?" Matthews repeated, her tone tinged with curiosity. For a moment, her brow furrowed as she searched her memory. Then it clicked—Aurelian Eyes used to moonlight as an actor in the mortal world. Her expression shifted slightly, intrigue replacing confusion.

Turning her full attention back to Ace, she asked pointedly, "What's your family name?" Her voice carried an edge as if trying to piece together whether he was connected to anyone noteworthy in her Husband's friend circles.
