The four major satirical novels in China referred to the four classical Chinese novels, Dream of the Red Chamber, Journey to the West, Water Margins, and Romance of the Three Kingdoms. These four works all contained rich satirical elements, each telling different stories and satirizing different social phenomena and human weaknesses. Through describing the love tragedy between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, Dream of the Red Chamber reflected the various drawbacks of feudal society and the weaknesses of human nature such as greed, selfishness and vanity. Journey to the West satirized social phenomena such as corruption in officialdom, evil of the demon king, laziness of the immortals, etc. by describing the adventures of Sun Wukong and others who protected Tang Sanzang. Water Margins reflected the darkness of feudal society and the weakness of human nature such as laziness, greed and violence by describing the heroic deeds of Lin Chong, Wu Song and Li Kui. Romance of the Three Kingdoms satirized social phenomena such as political corruption, the cruelty of war, and the weakness of human nature by describing the stories of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei. The satirical elements and contents of these four works are different, but they all reflect the various problems of ancient Chinese society and the weaknesses of human nature. They are one of the important works in the history of Chinese literature.

But after a while, it will pick up quickly. . . Now, back to the synopsis. Er-Erhmm.. (narrator-voice on) ... In another world called Blue Star, the famous son of wealth, Dorian D. Tian, is thrown into a whirl of unfortunate circumstances, resulting in his death. . His parents had a brutal car accident that left them in a coma, and his uncle had quickly taken over the company,  and seized the company, making sure that he was financially crippled for good. With that, the famous young master struggled desperately. And in the end, he gave in to his despair and depression, leaving the sad, lonely world. The end? Heh... Think again! Because in that brief moment, the lifeless corpse suddenly opened its eyes, revealing a deep calm look. That's right. Another mysterious soul had entered the body. But if one thought this story was just about revenge, then sorry... that wasn't even the half of it! .... The mysterious entity suddenly triggered an exorcist system. And from then on, both humans and even those from the underworld shuddered in fear and despair at the mysterious soul's cruelty. [Humans]: "Demon! Demon! You're definitely a demon!" [Demons]: "Help! Help! The famous demon wants to eat me!" [Evil Spirits]: "You!... Are you the one who is an evil spirit or us? Why the hell did it seem like you're the demonic one instead?" [Ghouls]: "You stay away from me! Stay away from me now, you evil entity!" [Hellhounds]: "Are you sure you're not the son of hades?" The system couldn't help looking at its host in doubt. Its indicators said that its host was indeed mortal. But why did it feel like something was wrong with its host? Dorian lightly chuckled in amusement. He would also like to ask the same question. What exactly was his identity? Well, this would be the biggest mystery of all. But Dorian wasn't in a hurry. Who were his enemies, and who were his allies? Soon, he would find the truth. In the meantime, why not play a little? "Demon! stay back!" "Oooo~~~... I... I want to go back to the underworld where it's safe." "Run for your lives! The demon is here!" …..

What's A King Without A System?

What's A King Without A System?

(Author's note: Story will be updated on August 3, 2020. I'm having my last semester in college so I'll focus on that for a while. Also, a remake will be done so reading this version would still be worth it. For those who were looking forward to more content, sorry but you'll have to wait longer. But my personal life has to come first, and this hobby can wait. If you're willing to wait, I'll give you your due reward, but not for a while. Thank you, and hope you like what you'll see.) The world as we know it is about to end. Billions of lives will be lost, countries devastated and society left in ruins. But if you have the power to save it, would you? Zel Huertazuela has had a life that's full of let downs. His mother was a debt-ridden mess, his father was an abusive angry bull while he gets nothing but insults when trying to fix them. He doesn't even know how to move forward with his life. “Never mind, I don’t really know what I want, why not just do what people tell me to? Money is needed you say? I’ll be an engineer then, those pay well right?” “Get a work that you would do even if you don’t get paid for it? What the hell kind of fantasy is that?” But that would have been it if it weren't for his sudden ability to live a lifetime in the span of a dream that lasts a night. "Wait, this isn't the hospital?!" "Where's my wife!" "Now that I'm back, I'll be rich!" "I'll fix the mistakes I made, there won't be any more regrets for this guy!" "Monsters?! No problem!" "We won in the dream, why can't we win in reality?" "What do you mean it changed?" "Help! How do I fix this?!" If you were given a second chance, would you take it? Even if you have to lose everything you built up today? Find out how a man finds himself saving the world by being the man who rules it! (The first volume is basically a very long prologue. The 'Battle of the Beginning' chapters will be more representative of what to expect from future volumes. This story is something I had in mind for a long time now so many of the ideas and scenarios can be seen in my other works but they are only similar, not literal copies. Enjoy!)
