One Wish to Own the World

One Wish to Own the World

"I wish to have the highest intelligence possible, an intelligence that would allow me to perceive and thoroughly understand everything I see, even if superficially and only once, to the fullest, including strong points, weak points, and how to overcome them." Due to a mistake made by God, Ken is born with every type of perfect memory, but without anything else - he is weak, sickly, stupid, and unwanted. However, there was a saving grace - he made a friend, Leo. Leo would talk to him about hypothetical situations like what to say in case a genie granted him one wish. When Ken dies and God offers him one wish for his next life as compensation for his previous mistake, Ken simply recites Leo's words and is sent to the cultivation world. There, he slowly learns that he is the only one he can trust. Armed with the special remaining Godly Qi from his reincarnation and with the ability to learn and improve techniques and manuals easily, even creating his own original cultivation path, he cultivates with the goal of standing at the top of the world, even if it takes leaving his moral code behind. Follow Ken in his journey as he lie, blackmail, murder, rob, poison, and manipulate others to achieve his goals! ----- DISCLAIMER: The god in the story is completely random and made up, and is not the particular god of any religion existing today in the real world.

The story 'The Wish' is centered around a child's imagination and the consequences it might bring. The boy's wish is not clearly stated at first, but as he progresses across the carpet, the reader gets a sense that this is no ordinary wish - making. It's a journey into the boy's mind and a peek into a world where a simple childhood activity can become something much more complex and even a bit frightening.

In 'Poison', Dahl creates a tense and gripping story. The use of a single setting, like the bedroom, intensifies the claustrophobic feeling. The main character's fear of the supposed poison under his skin is palpable. The story shows Dahl's talent for building suspense, as we keep wondering what will happen to the character with the 'poison' inside him.
