THE LIAR KING

“In the world of lies, truth isn’t just hidden—it’s rewritten. What you see is what you're meant to believe, but not what is. Reality here is sculpted, manufactured, worn like a costume. And the deeper you look, the more you realize the world itself is a lie.” Not a truth been told, not a lie you haven't seen. In the fractured continent of Veritas, truth is not sacred—it’s a casualty. Twenty masked nations survive on deception, bound by treaties inked in lies and ruled by those who lie best. But at the center of this web is the Game: a deadly contest of manipulation, misdirection, and survival. Some play to climb. Others play because they must. And in every generation, two legends are whispered: the Liar King—who will rule by perfect deceit—and the Lie Eater—who will tear the Game apart with raw truth. In Veritas, a mask is more than disguise—it is law, weapon, and identity. To walk unmasked is an act of war. Children learn to lie before they learn to write, and nobles duel not with swords, but with implication and silence. Truth corrodes; lies evolve. But now, something has shifted. Rumors stir of an heir born without a mask. Ancient alliances fracture overnight. Entire houses collapse under secrets whispered in the wrong ear. Some say the Liar King is rising. Others believe the Lie Eater walks among them. And caught in the spiral are those who still seek truth—however fragile, however doomed. As Veritas teeters on the edge of unraveling, a single question echoes behind every smile, every betrayal, every mask: “Deception isn’t a tactic. It’s the blood of the Game.” The Liar King is a psychological fantasy thriller where truth is a weapon, lies are currency, and only those who understand both can hope to endure. In this world, perception is power—and no mask stays on forever. Author’s Note This is a work of fiction.

Bleach: Watch Closely, This Is How You Use a Zanpakutō

In the Central 46 Compound, the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13 and the notorious scourge of the Female Shinigami Association, Masatsuki Aozaki, stood before the Sages and Judges. “You have improper relationships with numerous members, Seated Officers, and Captains of the Seireitei?” “As Captain-Commander, maintaining close relationships with them helps facilitate my work.” “...” The Judge narrowed his eyes. “Then how do you explain modifying the female Shinigami's Shihakushō into miniskirts?” “To transform the Seireitei into a perfect paradise.” “Tsk tsk… A paradise for all Shinigami? That’s not entirely unreasonable…” “No, a personal paradise.” “A private—wait! Captain-Commander Masatsuki, that kind of thinking is clearly wrong!” “Do you want to die?” “...” “Forget it, Captain-Commander Masatsuki. We’ll set this matter aside for now. Let’s discuss some of the outrageous statements you’ve made in the past. Those were jokes, right?” “No, I was completely serious.” Masatsuki calmly ran his hand along the hilt of his Zanpakutō and spoke with conviction. “I have a great relationship with my subordinates, I get along well with Hueco Mundo, and I’m even friends with all of your wives and girlfriends. But rest assured, I’m a good Shinigami. You can safely leave the world in my hands!” Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto: That damn brat! Shunsui, Jūshirō, don’t stop me—I need to teach him a lesson! Thus begins the tale of the most incorrigible Shinigami!
