Writer's Reviews:

First of all, I would like to thank you. Thanks to the readers, who read my lack of writing; I have finished my fourth book! I'll always remember that.

As I said earlier, this is my fourth book, and I still don't think writing a novel is easy. I always feel this. Personally, I started to feel weak around the 150th chapter. It has not been easy to write since then. I thought it would be better to take six books from the beginning or divide them into two parts and take a break. 

This time, I wrote a series, but I couldn't handle it in the second half. I'm sorry about that. I used to post it on the day I finished my epilogue, but this work has been so hard that I had to take a day off.

It has been the most popular piece of my writing, and at the same time, it was the most regretful piece of work. After writing and posting, I always thought 'I should write something like this,' or 'I should try to develop something like this,' or 'I could write something more specifically here,' or 'I'd like to reduce that a little bit.' 

I work for a company, but I've tried to write, edit, and post it on the Munpia. It has not been easy. When I was writing my previous Master Hunter K, it was really easy to write because I had no job then. I think it was difficult this time because I was always running out of time.

The future news of this article I originally thought of about a year ago. When I wrote my previous novels, I used a theme of going back to the past, a time shift, but I've never written about a future foreseeing, so I made a decision to write this genre if I could. We had a contest in April in Munpia, so I participated in it with this novel.

The motive was a horror cartoon based on future news, which I saw when I was in elementary school. My memory was dim, but in the animation, the main character had a paper newspaper every day, and it had the future news. I decided to convert it into something that would be in line with the Internet news standard.

As you can see, I took the League of Legends rating except for the last two, and Editor and Publisher. I thought they were the sources that I'd take to the end. As the abilities grew, I conceived the idea of the character's power and assets growing together, and I wrote it on the basis of that, before the last two grades.

The last two rating scenarios, the U.S.-China nuclear war, and the rare cancer of his son, were actually must-not subjects in web fiction writing, but I chose them as subjects to showcase the power of the last two parts. In the first place, the main character was so strong that I couldn't pull the story out unless it was that special. It was not bad to finish at around a hundred eighty episodes, but I still had leftover material. So I tried to use it without paying any attention to my grades, since it was material that I would like to release, and a scenario that I wanted to use. I am satisfied, but I'm a little sorry to those of you who have dropped out on the way. 

By getting the last two ratings, the main character has a pure divine ability. Some of you worry about chaos or confusion at the end of the story, but it's just a part that I put in as a cautionary note that the power of this kind of manipulation is so strong that it could destabilize the world if he mismanages it. If the probability is not limited, he can pop his fingers a few times and destroy the world. The main character, Han Sang-hoon, has a pretty wife, a daughter and a son, so he will use it carefully.

From April to November... I feel relieved but sorry to have finished the series after more than half a year. I think I wrote it in my previous reviews that when I was in middle school and high school, I used to read genre novels, but I haven't read any genre novels in the ten years since then. A few years ago, when web novels appeared, I thought there was this new kind of novel, and I became a reader, and a writer, and then wrote four books.

I'm sure many of you remember the genre novels of ten years ago, but there weren't many contemporary fantasies of this kind at that time. Most of the time, I read pure fantasies, martial arts novels, and so on. So, I was going to write that kind of pure fantasy. It's been ten years since I came to the web fiction world, and I found that all the pure fantasies were dead, and there were only a fusion or a modern fantasy. Since the pure fantasy was not popular at all, I tried to write a modern fantasy to see if my writing would work or not.

That's how I have written three novels so far. Except for Master Hunter K, there has been a reversal of the order of host and guest. So, the next novel will go back to its original version, and even if I can't write a pure fantasy, it will go toward a fusion fantasy. Originally, I announced that I would release my next novel as a game fantasy. Due to the nature of the genre novel, I don't think I need to use the game format. So, I'm going to go to a fusion fantasy similar to the previous Master Hunter K.

Now, when I think about it, I think it's a personal achievement and a lucrative hobby. But now I've won a big prize after writing this novel, and I've changed my mind a little bit after getting too much love from you. It is no longer right to write with such amateurish ideas. I will reduce my stubbornness a little bit, and get closer to my readers with a little more professional writing, for the fun of my readers.

So, I'll return to you with the next novel, which reflects that aspect. It's something that readers might like more. In a month or two, after recovering my physical and mental strength, I'll be back after I'm finished with the idea of my next novel.

Thank you so much again for reading so far!

See you in the next novel!

================================================================
Editor's Note: And so the novel is completed! It's been interesting to read along as I edit it, and get drawn into what originally seemed to be another money-grabbing 'I've got a cheat' fantasy. I have to say I enjoyed the aspects of him administering justice with his power more then how he accumulated it.
Khan has already been assigned another novel, and will be working on bringing up his bank before it begins to come out again on Webnovel.
(Shameless Plug) I have been publishing a novel here on Webnovel, https://www.webnovel.com/book/12401523305390805/The-Power-of-Ten%3A-Sama-Rantha
I'm up over two hundred fifty chapters written. It's more in the fantasy/gamer vibe, but with a very different spin on things in the moral area. Come join Sama Rantha on her road to Ten!

A very ordinary white collar worker, Han Sang Hoon.
One day, he came late to work and there he finds a strange destiny called [12 Hours After]

A few days have passed since the opening of the restaurant. The restaurant didn't really gain any traction due to the price being high and with only one dish on the menu.

Apollo's customers are the same as always, Kate, Abigail, and Noah, who eat Egg fried rice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

It's a cloudy day; rain clouds filled the sky with only a small gap for the sun to shine through. A black-haired guy could be seen walking towards the restaurant for shelter, holding his left arm for support and bruises all over his body. 

He walked in the restaurant and was greeted by Apollo, who was having small talk with Kate. The man, Levi, took a chair and sat on a corner, far away from them. 

Levi walked back towards them because he couldn't find a menu, "What are your dishes?"

Apollo stopped talking, his smile faded and his face turned expressionless, he looked at Levi, "We only have egg fried rice right now, it's priced at $45."

Levi being a somewhat skilled fighter, wanted to beat up the owner because of the price but stopped his actions when Apollo released a bit of his aura towards him, he shuddered and awkwardly smiled. He paid for his meal and took the bowl Apollo handed to him and ate at the corner.

'What the fuck was that?' He looked back at Apollo who was all smiles when talking with Kate, he turned back his gaze and look at the simple meal in front of him, 'How many did he kill to release that much killing intent?'

Levi is an ex-soldier who saw a lot of bloodsheds and faced enemies who had killed hundreds. After Levi retired at the age of 32, his problems never stopped, he got involved in a gang who kidnapped his sister and used her for blackmail. 

Now, he lives the life of a thug; he hated himself so much because he couldn't even protect his one and only family. Levi lived a rough life, scraping for food for them to eat; he only got to serve in the military because of the rushed recruitment. 

Levi looked at the plain egg fried rice; he reminisced his teen years where a nice food vendor used to give them egg fried rice to eat.
He clicked his tongue and murmured 'Screw it.' under his breath. Levi took a spoonful of egg fried rice and brought it to his mouth, when he fully tasted the egg fried rice, a drop of tear could be seen forming in the corner of his eyes, he didn't compliment the food but instead kept eating.

Levi is drowned in his emotions, tears dropping on the table he is in, he stopped eating and looked at the food again, wiping his tears, 'I wonder how you are now, old man.'

A smile grew on his lips as he continued eating, his eyes glowed as he fully tasted the egg fried rice he is eating. When he finished eating, he sat down idly in his chair as he took a photo from his wallet; in the picture, a beautiful woman in her teens smiling could be seen. He smiled and put it back, he stood up and walked out of the restaurant. Levi looked back at the restaurant from time to time until the restaurant isn't visible anymore. 

Levi isn't aware of his surroundings, but when he got far away from the restaurant, he noticed that his bruises slowly faded away, so is his fatigue. He stared in amazement at his injuries that are slowly disappearing, although he saw a few magical things in his lifetime, it isn't as magical as this.

...

Apollo cleaned up the restaurant as no more customers could be seen, he could just order Atlas to do it but he liked it this way.

He closed up the restaurant and prepared to go to Mt. Tsuki to check the supply.

Apollo watched in the shack, as the sun began setting. He looked at the sky in amazement, thinking 'How could someone make a world as beautiful as this?' 

As he was deep in thought, a large bird fell, right in the middle of his farm. The huge bird landed in an open area, its leg flowing with blood and its left-wing has a huge hole on it, due to being shot.

Apollo got back to his senses and looked at the eagle, wide-eyed. He walked out from his shack and walked towards the eagle; it laid on the ground motionless.

Apollo crouched down and examined the huge bird, it's rare to see eagles, but he is now staring at it. As his hand is about to land on one of its wings, it scratched Apollo with one of its undamaged claws, but Apollo didn't even feel a thing, so he continued.

The eagle tried to scream for help, but to no avail, it tried its luck and let Apollo try to examine it. Apollo, unfazed by the eagle's provocation, examined it carefully. It has a huge cut on its left leg and a bullet hole on its left-wing. 'A few litres of that magic water would probably heal him.'

He got the water and tried to feed it to the eagle, although it resisted at first, it stopped when it saw that Apollo didn't even get a scratch from its claws. 

The healing was fast and even visible to the naked eye; it tried to flap its wings to try and escape from this monster of a human but failed because it hurts.

Apollo went back to his shack and brewed tea that he bought from Atlas; he didn't like tea that much but whatever he bought from Atlas taste godly, so he decided to try it for once.

While drinking tea, he browsed Atlas' store again, the reason why is because he needs a powerful animal to guard the farm while he's away, he could buy guard dogs, but the most they could do is bite and scratch.

He filtered it so that he will only see animals. It showed a list full of animals, from fiction to non-fiction. Rows and rows of animals are listed, from lions to dragons. The description is also bizarre.

[Divine Dragon (Baby)]
Born from two divine dragons with pure bloodlines. Its diet consist of phoenix meat found deep in the volcanos in the immortal realm, meat from the Divine Lions found in god realm and water from the fountain of life. It could easily destroy planets even when it's just born.

[Divine Lion (Cub)] 
Found in the god realm, it could easily kill True Immortal Realm cultivators without the help its mother. Its diet consists of Thunder Griffins,  Azure Boars and Snow Tigers. It is frequently fed with water from the fountain of life.

[Cerberus (Cub)] 
Found in the depths of hell, these Cerberus are fed with the souls that killed millions, for meat, they eat Emperor level demons found deep within Lucifer's castle. They could easily kill Foundation Establishment cultivators and destroy a small city. 

etc

 
Apollo stared at the list of animals while reading their description; he is somewhat familiar with the term 'Cultivators' because of the novels he is reading when he isn't doing anything, but he isn't familiar with 'Foundation Establishment, True Immortal.'

Cultivation ranks consist of 15 levels in total; it's only 15 because of insufficient data. 

Those 15 ranks are, 
Qi Condensation

Foundation Establishment 

Golden Core

Void Realm

Nascent Soul

Hollow Immortal

Transcendent Immortal

True Immortal

Hollow Deity

Transcendent Deity

True Deity

Immortal King

Immortal Deity

Heavenly God and the Apex.

It is unknown if there are ranks beyond the Apex, the strength of a being in the Heavenly God rank is miles apart Apollo's strength, although they could effortlessly destroy a multiverse, their strength is far off from Apollo's. 

Apollo thought on what to buy for a bit but decided not to, he wants something to guard his farm but not an animal that could easily destroy cities and universes.

He looked outside and had a bright idea in mind, if he could feed the eagle with the water he buys from Atlas, wouldn't it be the same as raising a godlike animal?

The eagle is laying outside, trying to flap its wings, so Apollo stood up from his chair and walked towards the eagle, he tried to think of ways to tame the eagle but to no avail. Apollo has the urge to use Atlas to tame the eagle but stopped his urge.

He got fed up at trying to tame the eagle, so he quickly finished his tea and went back to his house.

Sitting on the bed, Apollo tried to think of ways to gain power, he already bought a few martial arts in expert tier from Atlas, but it only gave him a mere 100,000 on all stats, although it's only expertise on martial arts, it gave him a boost on his stats.

While thinking, his eyes suddenly widen, he facepalmed and went to Atlas' store to buy Cultivation manuals, his familiarity with novels that have cultivation in them is beyond that of a NEET¹, when he's not doing anything, he reads novels to waste time, it's a useless hobby but he just reads them for fun.

Apollo could instantly read the contents in a matter of seconds, but he'd rather read it manually, that's why he's familiar with the term cultivation.

He started reading when Kate and Noah introduced him to novels while chatting with them.

Besides Str, Agi, and Def, Apollo also has a talent stat which Atlas doesn't show him, 
Body - Divine Grade
Talent- ∞
Comprehension - ∞
Will - 7
Luck - 5

He bought the first one which is the most expensive one among them, it costs 1,000,000,000+²⁰, it's called Asura's Sutra, it's look on the outside may seem shabby but the words on the inside are so profound that even a being that has lived thousands of years could only comprehend a few words in it.

Before he starts cultivating, he bought a few divine grade spiritual artifacts and pills to help him in his path to godhood. He also rented a space from Atlas, the area is only a few dozen cubic meters, but the Qi is so thick and pure that cultivators could breakthrough realms like its breathing air.

...

An unknown amount of time has passed since Apollo started cultivating, he got out from the space and tried to check his stats, 

------------------------------------

User: Apollo Kai Murphy
Str: 4,023,202,920+²⁹
Agi:4,019,110,492+²⁹
Def:4,120,467,583+²⁹
Points: 1,998

Storage
Sell
------------------------------------

'Not bad, from +¹⁹ to +²⁹.' He closed it right after.

Apollo is an astronaut who got sent to a mission to go to mars so that humanity could once again make a breakthrough, but an accident happened, and their spaceship got sucked into a black hole. Apollo's crew members died because of a meteor that also got sucked into a black hole, and only he is alive. 

After dozens of millennia, Apollo woke up inside a broken spaceship he clearly and vividly remembers. In those thousands of years, his body was cultivated to the point of a god, and he gets a ticket back to earth.

How will he use *****? What will he do with his newfound power?

*CURRENTLY BEING REWRITTEN.*

Still unsure, but this is the oldest link I found when I reversed search the book cover: https://www.behance.net/gallery/10143787/The-Luminarium-21-Elements

Schedule: None, I sometimes get a bottleneck in writing, or should I say Writer's block and I couldn't really put up chapters every day like a robot.

"Why, you could not have possibly heard of this poem?" Ling Chongxiao asked after seeing the expression on Shen Lian’s face.
"I think so, I did. Was it by a Daoist with the surname, Wang?"
"That I am not sure. I recalled the Founding Master mentioned that he saw a tiny row of words at the end of the poem, it says, "my old friend Saffron had left, but his words shall remain, my heart would be like that of Jizi", but the person who left the words signed off as "Li".
The Founding Master thought, the poem was left by someone named "Saffron", but the person who signed off as "Li" was an old friend of Saffron. As for Jizi, the Founding Master had no idea what was it about.
The Founding Master was straightening out his confusion when he picked up a hint of blood from the scent of plum blossoms. When he turned to look, his limbs immediately weakened in fear. A tiger was right behind of him.
The dragons dwell amidst the clouds, whilst the tigers dwell amidst the wind. The corner of the tiger’s big eyes was upturned, and there were white stripes on its forehead.
After staring at the Founding Master, the tiger leaped for him.
The Founding Master took a few steps back in fear. What happened then left him in shock. The tiger did not land on top of him but was held in mid-air by an invisible rope.
"Who are you, and why have you come?" A child with a crisp voice queried.
The Founding Master saw the tiger being lowered onto the other side, and a young female child was sitting on its back. The girl had her hair tied, and was holding onto a jade green flute.
The girl looked around six to seven of age, and her skin was clear. Her exposed wrist could be akin to the frost and the snow, and she looked like the moon shining brightly on a quiet night. The way she spoke was the same as an adult, and she held a flute in her hand.
"Were you the one who was playing the flute?" The Founding Master asked curiously.
"Ah, so you are one of the normal humans who have stumbled into the mountains by mistake. I shall deal with you later."
Out of a sudden, ten red lines started closing in from the northwestern sky.
"Li Qingshui, I must send you back into the karmic cycle today." The person who was amidst the red lines spoke lowly.
The girl was staring at the red lines, and she took a glance at the Founding Master. A black cloud emerged underneath the tiger she was sitting on, and it flew towards the red lines.
Thunders were roaring in the northwestern sky, and rays of five colors crisscrossed with numerous red lines.
It was not until the sun was about to rise that the commotion ceased.
There was a stone house in the plum forest that the Founding Master was in. He waited till sunrise, yet the girl was nowhere to be found. However, he found a scroll of painting, three books of scripture, and a wooden fish in the stone house.
The girl did not return. The Founding Master left the stone house with the items he found. He did not walk towards the north-west, but he walked towards the south-east direction instead. He did not know how big the mountain was, the Founding Master walked for ten over days before he managed to get back to the sea on the south-east. He carefully practiced the martial exercises on the beach. When he had reached a certain level of attainment, he made a wooden raft and went back to the mainland.
"Now you finally know where the Shenzu Scripture came from," Ling Chongxiao said with a smile.
"The Shenzu Scripture was one of the secret texts that he found? And the wooden fish is the one that you are carrying?" Shen Lian queried softly.
"Good guess. Among the three scriptures, one was called Mingyu martial art, and one was called Shenzu Scripture". Both of them have their similarities, but Mingyu martial art was scarier. Both require the cultivator to have great potential. The only difference is that the stronger Mingyu martial art is actually incomplete. The man in green always thought the Master to favor me more, but actually, the Master knew him too well. He was aggressive and extreme. If he were to practice Mingyu martial art, he would do himself more harm than good. This was why the Master passed the perfected and completed Shenzu Scripture to him instead.
In terms of potential, it is undeniable that I have greater potential than him. The Master hoped that I could complete this Kung Fu, and pass it on to the future apprentices.
Throughout these years, I did learn something. With this Kung Fu, I managed to attain what the Daoist called "taming the white tiger", and I could preserve my youth. However, to complete this masterpiece is beyond my capabilities.
I have wasted a lot of my time for this, which is why I do not plan to pass the Mingyu Scripture on to you, for fear of wasting your time.
Also, my experience tells me that although the Mingyu Scripture is profound, it shares a similar origin with the Shenzu Scripture. Both are of authentic Xuanmen.
If you managed to cultivate the Shenzu Scripture to the highest level, you will benefit greatly, and the path of immortality will not be far."
After hearing everything from Ling Chongxiao, Shen Lian remembered the Shenzu Scripture actually appeared in one of Jin Yong’s novels. On the other hand, there was another book titled "The Daoist Drifting in the Wuxia World". The main protagonist created a version of Kung Fu named Shenzu Scripture.
Even though he loved the novel, he only managed to read three volumes of it.
He wanted to read the novel when the completed volumes of the novel were published, but it would seem that he would not have the chance to do so.
He wondered if there was a connection between all these. But how could the plot of a novel reconcile with his current predicament? That would be too hard to believe.
Novels are, after all, works of fiction. His journey to the foreign realm was the reality.
"Could the third scripture be, the Deity Vanquishing Sword Scripture?"
Shen Lian spoke slowly.
"Indeed. The Deity Vanquishing Sword is strong, and it is beyond the likes of martial arts found in Jianghu. If anything, it is more similar to Celestial arts. However, from the Founding Master onwards, everyone who has practiced it died an unnatural death. This is why the apprentices are prohibited from practicing it. When the man in green passed it on to you, he probably did not want this swordcraft masterpiece to be lost. Though he probably was brewing something evil, and did not pass it on out of goodwill."
Ling Chongxiao snickered and thought, in this world, he was the one who knew the man in green best. However, after the incident with the man in green, Ling Chongxiao could not be bothered to restore his sect. Since the meeting with Shen Lian was a fated one, he might as well pass the Kung Fu on to him, just so that the martial arts of his sect would not be lost.
"Destiny does not scare me, traditions do not bind me," Shen Lian replied. Those who practiced Deity Vanquishing Sword died unnaturally due to the deficiency in their spirit. Their over-reliance on the skill, when faced with strong enemies, caused irreversible damages to their spirit. What good would recovery do when they kept dealing damage to their spirit, to the point where they got more and more extreme? In the end, they either destroy the world or destroy themselves.
The reason why the man in green was so extreme was probably due to his character, but the Deity Vanquishing Sword was likely to have something to do with it.
Cultivation must be for the sake of self-protection. He must not indulge in killing and winning. If he were to cultivate, he must first cultivate his heart. If he could not even control his heart and let his heart do whatever it wanted, that would not be the right way of immortality.
For three nights, Ling Chongxiao explained to Shen Lian everything about cultivation.
In the end, he left without bidding farewell to Shen Lian. A letter was all that he left behind, and he did not tell Shen Lian where he could find him.
It was the morning of the reopening of Shen Lian’s inn. There was no grand ceremony.
The name "Tongfu Inn" was changed to "An Inn".
On the right door pillar, it said: "Cultured guests frequent here".
The pillar on the left said, "Unrefined guests are always welcome."


What is a Daoist Master? One that is imageless in ten directions and vanishes in the six paths; unrestrained by the three realms and the five elements.                                                                                                                                           
After a day at the clinic, Dr. Li Feng met with an accident on his way home. When he regained consciousness, Li Feng found himself in the body of a weak teenage boy who was born out of wedlock, Shen Lian. Who was the father? The mother would not tell. A scripture he found among his mother’s remnants was the only thing he knew about his father.                                                                                                    
The mother came from a wealthy and well known family. When Shen Lian was recalled back to the Shen family, he was entitled for part of the grandfather’s inheritance and businesses. Despite the grand value, Shen Lian did not take a cent with him when he decided to leave the family. Why would he leave this comfortable life behind?                                      
His journey with this new identity brought him into this new world as he travelled between realms in search of knowledge to improve his Daoist skills. As he conquered trial after trial, would he become the chosen one? Will he succeed in becoming the Daoist Master? Only time will tell.

Dark

There was darkness all around me. No matter how far I looked there was nothing but darkness.

Then I began to think. 

Where am I? What is this place? Last I remember I was .... I don't remember anything...

Who am I? I could piece together that I was a student. I remember having a family, friends and hobbies but not who or what they were. I remember how I look like. 21 years old, lean athletic build, black hair, green eyes and about 186 cm. Though not handsome I was at least easy on the eyes. I was extremely pale. So pale that I could be mistaken for a vampire.

For some reason I remembered all the movies and novels I ever saw.

It was weird and was driving me crazy.
(A/N : The MC has no knowledge of Mangas or Japanese culture in general or even comic books, he only knows of movies and a few novels so only occasionally will he have any meta knowledge about the plot)

It was then I saw something akin to a screen in front of me. For some odd reason I could understand what was written on it even though it wasn't in any language I knew of.

[Welcome]

[Would you like to go on a journey beyond your imagination? Y/N]

Even though it was vague and extremely dubious the darkness was driving me crazy. After thinking about it I chose 'Y' . 

[Thank you for taking part in our experiment!.]

[Congratulations! You are now a Journeyman. You would be traveling to different realms carrying out missions that can help you grow into something more. Each world you travel to will have one mission for you to complete. The reward for completing the mission can either be an ability acquired in that world ( Derivatives like spells for magic manipulation ability don't count, so if you choose to take light magic ability for example the related spells would naturally come with it also martial arts do not count as abilities but skills, the skills will remain with you throughout your journey once you learn them) or a slot for a person of the realm you are visiting to become your companion in your journey (you can also keep the slot for later use in a different world but then you cannot take the ability you acquired from that particular world).]

[To star your journey you are given 3 boons that will accompany you throughout your travels. The boons given are purely based on luck. Would you like to see them? Y/N]

It took me some time to get over my shock. Apparently I am being isekied not to mention the fact that I have given permission to be part of an experiment whose goal I do not know. It's not like I want to go with the flow but... I DON'T HAVE A CHOICE. Angry as I may be about my situation, I know this is the only way to escape the darkness before I am driven to insanity. Firming my resolve I chose 'Y'  .

[Congratulations! You have been given the following boons :

1. Status Screen - This is a command that brings up a window that shows you numerical data about yourself(name, job, Health Points (HP), Mana Points (MP), attributes, skills, abilities).

2. Invictus : Your will is absolute, boundless, and unbreakable. Factors such as distress, suffering, and difficulty mean nothing to you. You are capable of undergoing any disaster without batting an eye, ignoring any amount of pain, remaining mentally untouched by even the most tragic events, and even the most fearsome odds will not give you pause. Abilities that would effect your mind or control you are useless, you shrugging these off as nothing more than irritants. You never break, never bow, and even come a thousand apocalypses you will stand as tall and resolute as ever. Being torn in half, locked into a timeloop of endless agony for thousands of years, or facing the most hopeless of odds are nothing to you.

3. All Fiction : Allows you to erase the existence of things; this includes things with or without form, injuries, your own "aura" and other abilities.
To bring back something from nothingness you have to actively and willingly concentrate on the thing you are trying to bring back.

Please prepare to receive the boons. (Warning: The process will be painful, please bear with it).]

(A/N: I tweaked All Fiction a bit by adding the power to bring things back from nothingness for the story. Please do note that though powerful it will not make him OP. Strong from the start sure but not OP because in the worlds that he will visit, people will have counter measures to deal with him.)

I was instantly hit with enormous pain. Using all my wits to bear the honestly excruciating pain I somehow manage pull through. As I regained my bearings, my mind was flooded with information about my boons as well as how to use them.

The first ability was quite helpful as it made me understand my strengths so I could plan accordingly. My second ability made me a bit nervous, I didn't want to become an emotionless robot. After understanding it thoroughly it seems it made me more like Batman on steroids, I guess I could live with that. And finally my third ability, frankly that just seems like some OP bullshit. But I know there must beings out there that can find a way around it if such an ability can be given to others so freely. 

It seems that I would at least have the power to protect myself wherever I end up.

To give it a test run I mentally said 'Status'.

A simple holographic screen appears in front of me.

[

Status:

Name: Nameless

Job: Journeyman

HP: 100% (1% regeneration every 30 mins)

MP: 100% (1% regeneration every 30 mins)

Str: 10

Vit: 10

Agi: 10

Skills: None.

Abilities: Status Screen, Invictus, All Fiction.

]


Nameless huh.

Since it is the beginning of my new life and this journey then my new name will be Inizio.

Again checking my status, and sure enough it was changed into my new name.

[

Status:

Name: Inizio

Job: Journeyman

HP: 100% (1% regeneration every 30 mins)

MP: 100% (1% regeneration every 30 mins)

]

Now what is this job thing? Concentrating on the job tab I get an explanation.

[Job: It signifies the type of build you have for your abilities.( Like if someone who has Monk as a job will have a build with high strength and vitality attributes).]

[Journeyman: This job signifies your being able to travel through the worlds. It also gives you limitless growth. As long as you overcome your limits you can increase your attributes without any problems.]

I can grow stronger but only by overcoming my limits. I just know there is a catch to that but I can only wait to find out what it is.

As I was lost in thought another screen showed up.

[Attention! The first world transfer is starting. After the transfer is complete you would be given your first world mission. Please do your best to complete your mission. Do note that only after completing the mission can you move on to the next world.]

[We wish you the best of luck!]

Well even though it was practically being forced upon me I was kinda looking forward to escaping the darkness and being this "Journeyman". Let's hope during this experiment or whatever this is, I can dig out some more answers.

[Initiating world transfer.]

And then everything went white.

Follow the journey of a clueless man as he travels through the worlds we consider fiction as part of an experiment he knows nothing about. Watch as he grows into something he wasn't meant to be.

(I do not own any franchises used in this fanfiction other than the main character and the OCs).

I welcome constructive criticism.

The one-eyed man approached us. This was my first meeting with one of Seoul's Seven Kings.

Yoo Sangah talked in the group chat.

–Dokja-ssi, this person is perhaps…

–Yes, you're right.

I nodded to Yoo Sangah. It was impossible not to think of this person when seeing the appearance.

–By the way, I don't understand. Even if the constellation is 'that person', why is the incarnation dressed like that?

–His sympathy with the constellation seems to be high. The higher the sympathy rate, the more the incarnation is influenced by the lifestyle of the constellation.

–I should never cough in front of him.

The man with long hair tied back was bowing to the man approaching us.

"Your Majesty. You came."

"Yes."

"What happened?"

"Do I need to say it? Here."

The one-eyed man pointed to his staff. There was a blue jewel available from the Big Dipper embedded on it.

[Greedy Wolf Star].

The long-haired man admired it.

"Ohh…!"

Wasn't he quite good? Already gaining one star jewel…

The star jewels were the rewards of the Big Dipper chapter.

It was an item that increased overall stats by one level. It had a good effect on its own but the star jewels were meaningful when seven were collected.

It was because the jewels were the summoning material for the Four Yin Demonic Beheading Sword.

The one-eyed man looked at me. "Who are these people?"

"They have just entered the Big Dipper chapter. Their abilities are quite good so I was thinking about getting them to join."

"Really?"

The one-eyed man and I extended our hands to each other at the same time.

"I am Cha Sangkyung."

"I am Kim Dokja."

I shook his hand while activating a skill.

It was regrettable that Jung Heewon wasn't here. If she saw this man in front of me, she would never speak nonsense about my sponsor again.

Cha Sangkyung said, "I have a burden of seeing things. Can I look at you once?"

"Yes."

Yes, he could try.

[The character 'Cha Sangkyung' has used Law of Interest Lv. 2!]

The stigma 'Law of Interest' was quite interesting among the investigation techniques in Ways of Survival. It didn't reveal the attributes window of the opponent but it was a skill that roughly gave information about the personality of the opponent. In other words, he would see a 'Easily fooled Demonic Enemy' if the person was 'good', while he would see a 'Back-stabbing Demonic Enemy' if the person was 'bad.' For example…

[The character 'Cha Sangkyung' has discovered that you are a demonic enemy that shouldn't be touched.]

It was like this.

"T-This?"

"King, why are you acting like this?"

[The character 'Cha Sangkyung' is greatly disturbed.]

Cha Sangkyung shouted with a pale face.

"D-Demonic enemy!"

"Huh? It can't be…"

At his words, the group members of the Maitreya King simultaneously looked at me. The atmosphere became tense when Cha Sangkyung urgently added.

"N-Nothing. I have made a mistake."

"Huh? There's nothing?"

"Yes, it is nothing. Everyone back off."

Indeed. He would be a fool to ignore the warning of the constellation. By the way, a demonic enemy that shouldn't be touched…

Maybe the One-eyed Maitreya didn't want to fight with me.

"Sigh… it isn't surprising."

The dubious thing was the reaction of the long-haired man. It was momentary but there was an expression of 'regret' on his face.

"The plan will start in one hour. I'm looking forward to your participation despite being a bit late."

Cha Sangkyung said before returning to his group members.

The first encounter with Gung Ye ended like this. (TL: Gung Ye had a slight mention earlier in the novel. He is a king who proclaimed himself a Buddha and became a tyrant who sentenced death to anyone opposing him, including his own wife)

The long-haired man said, "Phew, it almost became a major event. I'm glad."

"It is absurd to say that he is a king who knows the hearts of the people."

"Haha, Gung Ye might be recorded as a tyrant later on but he was a good and wise king first. You never know what will happen in the future. History can change."

I looked carefully at the long-haired man and asked, "By the way, who are you?"

"Oh, I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Han Sooyoung. I am Cha Sangkyung's assistant."

A man who supported the incarnation of Gung Ye. It was highly likely that he was attached to Gung Ye's side because of his sponsor.

Who was it? Perhaps it was a king? I immediately used a skill.

[The exclusive skill, Character List is activated.]

[The information of this person can't be read in 'Character List.']

[This person isn't registered in 'Character List.']

…What?

"Um? What's wrong?"

I looked at the shamelessly speaking Han Sooyoung and couldn't help laughing. I see… now I knew who this person was.

"It's nothing. Just… I feel like you are a demonic enemy."

"Haha, what do you mean?"

I could see Han Sooyoung's eyes change strangely. Maybe at this moment, both of us were thinking the same thing. The question was who would pull out a sword first.

The doors of the waiting room started to open one by one.

"The kings are coming!"

There was tension in the Maitreya group while several people in the waiting room started cheering.

I watched the kings walking out the door and asked Han Sooyoung.

"Are they on the same side?"

"Yes, they are all kings who promised to cooperate with us. From left to right, there is the 'Prudent King' Yoon Kiyoung and 'Fighting King' Kim Baekho Then the last one who came out is the 'Earth Dragon King' Gu Daesung."

I remembered something when I heard this nickname.

The Prudent King and Fighting King. They were just like their nicknames. They had decent skills and stats but they were one step lacking compared to the Seven Kings.

The only one I needed to pay attention to was the Earth Dragon King Gu Daesung.

Gu Daesung discovered Cha Sangkyung and asked, "You have already come out?

Fast."

"You are a rude earthworm."

"…Earthworm? Is that what you are calling my sponsor?"

Yoo Sangah was startled when she heard their words and whispered to me, "That person, I think he has a good sponsor behind him."

"…How do you know?"

"I heard the story that the king of Baekje was born from an earth dragon."

"Earth dragon?"

"That's what they meant by 'earthworm.' The other kings are calling him the son of an earth dragon in a mocking manner."

She was really amazing. She figured out the identity of Gu Daesung with this much information.

Yoo Sangah was right.

Earth Dragon King Gu Daesung. In my memories, he was one of Seoul's Seven Kings with the late King Gyeon Hwon as his sponsor.

"There are quite a few people with kings as a sponsor. Then the king we saw before…"

I nodded. In fact, it wasn't a coincidence that there were so many incarnations with a 'king' as their sponsor.

The situation would be similar in other areas, not just the Seoul Dome.

In Japan, there would be a competition between the three heroes including Oda Nobunaga. In the UK, there would be a competition between Richard the Lionheart or Henry VIII.

The world's greatest constellations would be preparing for a war over the Absolute Throne, raising their coordination with their incarnation to a breathtaking level.

[The constellation 'Maritime War God' is expecting the appearance of a new fable class constellation.]

[The constellation 'Bald General of Justice' is watching the situation with sweaty hands.

The other high-ranking constellations were also interested. It was natural. As I said before, the fourth scenario was an event for the greatest constellations of each country.

"Is everyone gathered?"

The kings soon gathered in the middle and gave a speech.

"Our enemy is the Tyrant King who entered the third door! The Tyrant King has already received two jewels from this dungeon and cowardly raided innocent kings. Some of the people present would've lost a king to him."

That's why this waiting room was a field of corpses.

Perhaps the Tyrant King killed two kings and took away their star jewels. It meant he would soon gather all seven star jewels…

"The new Seoul shouldn't be handed over to such a person. If he gets the Four Yin Demonic Beheading Sword and then takes the Absolute Throne, there will be endless grief and tragedy in Seoul!"

"Thus, the people have to fight! Get up right now! The kings here are all wise. The future will be fine no matter which of us becomes the absolute king. We have to at least stop the worst king!"

"This will be a struggle for a righteous way of living! Take care! You will be great fighters taking your first step into a new history!"

The speech didn't have much substance but people became excited. Some people cheered, some sympathized while others were touched to tears. It was like they were real revolutionaries fighting for justice.

I looked at the scene alone. 

Just one month ago, the people here had voted for a president. They did their duty and agreed to have private property through legitimate economic activities. All of a sudden, it felt like a dream.

In just one month, Seoul had returned to the kingdom days.

"Depart!"

Hundreds of people entered through the third door. Cha Sangkyung's group was at the back and we moved in line with them.

Our vision wavered before a giant tunnel appeared. It was a huge tunnel where the size couldn't be easily measured.

Han Sooyoung walked beside me and opened his mouth. "This is so exciting. I feel like I'm in a martial arts novel."

"A martial arts novel?"

Han Sooyoung nodded with a meaningful smile. "Why, don't you think it is like a martial arts novel? It is like a treasure map. The legendary sword is sleeping in the stone chamber and whoever obtains the sword shall be the best person in the world!"

Han Sooyoung spoke accompanied by gestures seemed quite plausible. It wouldn't be unbelievable if he was an actor.

"It is a common cliche in a martial arts novel, the treasure sword."

"Oh, Dokja-ssi, do you read martial arts novels as well?"

It couldn't be missed when talking about genre fiction.

"I read quite a bit. By the way, there is a common development in these cliche novels."

"Common development? What is it?"

"It turns out that the treasure map is a fake! This type of development."

Han Sooyoung's eyes shook. "This is interesting. What happens next?"

"It is an obvious story. The 'shadow' laughs quietly and kills the people gathered because of the fake treasure."

"Hoh… is that the current situation? Could someone be a shadow?"

I nodded and stated, "It is a possibility although I don't like such obvious cliches."

"Um? What does that mean?"

"To be honest, there are too many cliches like the treasure sword.

"Hmm… there are too many stories, making it bad?"

"For writers, I think it is a story that lacks distress."

Han Sooyoung's expression slightly hardened. "Then what would Dokja-ssi do if you were the writer? What if you had to write about the treasure sword?"

"I'm not sure. I am a 'reader' as my name suggests."

"I think that a reader would do the same. Writing familiar cliches will give satisfaction to the readers."

Yes, I thought he would say something like this. I smiled and asked, "Who said this? You are speaking as a writer. I'm not saying that cliches are bad. At the very least, a plagiarist shouldn't use it."

"Pla…giarist?"

"Yes, a plagiarist."

It was funny to see Han Sooyoung's face change colours.

"Well, every story is similar. It is the details that are a bit different… Can it really be called plagiarism? Perhaps if Dokja-ssi is the writer―"

"Nope, I would do it differently."

Han Sooyoung's eyebrows twitched. "…You would write it differently? How?"

"For example, like this."

I raised Unbroken Faith and cut his neck. No blood was visible as his head fell down.

I added, "Why are you hiding when it will be revealed anyway?"

Then Han Sooyoung's head spoke from where it was lying on the ground. "How interesting. Kim Dokja."

Only I know the end of this world.
One day our MC finds himself stuck in the world of his favorite webnovel. What does he do to survive? It is a world struck by catastrophe and danger all around.
His edge? He knows the plot of the story to end. Because he was the sole reader that stuck with it. Read his story to see how he survives!

After a long time, Isaac finally succeeded in transcending existence itself, something theoretically almost impossible. Or… he should have succeeded, had he really cut off all of his attachments and feelings, not just the ones connected to the world he lived in. In his ignorance, he hadn’t taken his attachments to worlds he deemed imaginary into account.

After being reminded of this fact, he found himself on the threshold to full transcendence. He had two choices: Either giving up these attachments as well to reach the goal he chased after for so long, or postponing this for later and using the byproduct of his attempt at transcendence - having turned into an all-powerful being beyond existence - to go on a journey in the infinite number of worlds waiting for him.

To fulfill his last wishes and to meet the people he thought fictional before, Isaac used all of his newfound power on a single, tailor-made creation.

The Wish Fulfillment System.

This is a story about a number of lonely people trying to overcome their loneliness by sticking together.

Hi there, Shiro/the author here.

This story is something I decided to write for personal enjoyment and so I could share it with a few friends. I decided to start uploading it here so a few of you can potentially get some enjoyment out of it. If you have any constructive criticism or notice a mistake, feel free to let me know, I truly appreciate any chance I can get at improving my writing. Now, if you don't end up enjoying the story, sorry about that. No story is for everyone. And seeing how this one was mostly written purely for my own enjoyment, I don't know how many others will have the same taste as I do.

Yes, this story will incorporate many worlds and characters you're already familiar with. I mean no disrespect to the authors of the original works, I was simply impressed by their creations and decided to borrow them for parts of the story.

Release schedule: 1 chapter every Sunday, most likely between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. GMT+1

(Mostly to give myself some pressure so I actually do something. This might increase in the future if I get more motivated and used to the release schedule. But for now, I'll just build up the additional chapters in case of an emergency.)

Romance is a very popular genre in Webnovels. The first thing that come to mind when we talk about romance are the CEO novels. Even though we don't want to admit it, they are the mainstream romance stories in the Webnovel website. 

So why do people love romance stories? I hope you find the answer while reading this chapter.

----------------------------------

FattyBai: No worries, was just a bit curious. It's always amazing seeing how the Romance genre basically dominates the site.

Parasection: and CEO stories.

FattyBai: So I was sort of curious what the demographics on the reader's sex were. But yeah, it's a fair assumption to say that the ladies rule the site, lol

WWFire: Readers gender stats r ambiguous, it is manipulatable after all.

FattyBai: Unless there's this hidden group of guys who have been starving for CEO romance novels (which would actually be funny).

Parasection: But the sacred texts.

WWFire: All I see are genderless alien. *derp emoticon*

reinesse ♥: kek.

FattyBai: How do we pull in the female readers in if we can't write a romance story? *cry emoticon*

Parasection: No choice but to write yaoi then.

WWFire: We who read these kind of fantasy novels don't live our lives correctly pal.

CailinMatthews: *ghost hug emoticon*

Parasection: Give in to the demons.

WWFire: That's why we escape reality sometimes. 

FattyBai: It's like being offered a big cake and unable to take a slice.

Zehell2218: I think male reader have their own chance and market.

FattyBai: For sure, but it'd be nice to tap into both sides.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai I think I'll make fantasy romance so I can attract both.

FattyBai: I mean, it's not a bad idea, but how do you split it up? 50% romance/50% dragon ball z?


Parasection: The fuq that sounds like an abomination.

FattyBai: It does.

Zehell2218: @FattyBai No it's 80% romance 20% action. *joy emoticon*

Noveljunky: Besides Romance, what else do females like to read?

Parasection: BL, yaoi, drama.

Zehell2218: Still BL is romance.

Anjeeriku: horror lol.

reinesse ♥: @Noveljunky xianxia I think.

Noveljunky: Mmm.

Zenith: Well, need too write romance...kek

Zehell2218: Do female reader like to read apocalypse novel? Quick question since I will make fantasy romance in apocalypse.

[A/N: Sis, did you forget that you're a girl too?]

Totally Not Nano: nah oof.

FattyBai: @Zehell2218 Aww, man. But then you have to develop characters and write meaningful dialogue.

Zenith: I am probably gonna f*ck up my time trying to make a romance story.

FattyBai: We like blowing stuff up and fighting baddies.

Zehell2218: cmon it will be comedy. *laugh emoticon*

Parasection: The best thing in a novel is character development humor and action romance can be on the side.

Anjeeriku: Romance can be a great sub genre.

Parasection: how does one even write romance? I don't know where to begin with that genre.

FattyBai: I'm a simple guy, I see plot and I drown it in martial arts and manly stuff. Of course, I don't know what feelings are. Can you eat them to increase your cultivation base? *think smart emoticon*

Parasection: I've never experienced romance so i'd fail the moment i'd attempt a story like that.

Zehell2218: Actually, I like to write fighting scene but without romance my reader will kill me. So...yeah I tag it as romance! *joy emoticon*

Parasection: Fight scenes are fun to write.

FattyBai: I'm trying to break through into the "Immortal lonely sperg" phase~

Zehell2218: Very sloooooowww romance.

Anjeeriku: Please no abusive ML @Zehell2218 They're disgusting. idk why women like to read them.

Zehell2218: @Anjeeriku I don't know if girls who read xianxia will read apocalypse novel too.

reinesse ♥: I wanna write a novel like it's not easy to be a man after traveling to the future.

Zehell2218: @Anjeeriku No I won't make abusive ML. @reinesse ♥ same *joy emoticon*

Totally Not Nano: @Anjeeriku *cough* TBWWM *cough*

reinesse ♥: And an actual xianxia novel with reasonable characters.

Zehell2218: But without the romance it's bland.

reinesse ♥: Like characters, especially main character who knows how to adjust because extreme pride is not good.

FattyBai: @Zehell2218 Baby Dragon Truer words have not been spoken, and that scares me.

reinesse ♥: Some villains are really brainless. they can scheme, but they don't have a reasonable reason to do so

Zenith: Kek.

Zehell2218: @Zenith gramps I have idea for fantasy romance lemme tell you after I finish writing and see if it's interesting or not.

Zenith: Get the MC u desire! Yeah @Zehell2218 

FattyBai: I fear becoming a more wholesome and fleshed out human being. Please no development.

Zehell2218: @Zenith It's ok. Just want to see if people will find this good or not. *joy emoticon*

Totally Not Nano: I think there's a formula in getting famous as a writer.

[A/N: Oh? Such formula exist? Teach me Senpai!]

Totally Not Nano: Let's debate about it. *thinking emoticon*

Parasection: The formula is write romance and you're set.

Totally Not Nano: Any genre + xxxxxxx = top 1.

[A/N: Today… I lost faith in humanity.]

Noveljunky: If you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back.

Moonbirth: Write a lot. Write everyday. Post a lot everyday... write about what readers want to read about.

Anjeeriku: Write a lot. be a slave. Lol

Elyon knew that "Romance" is not his strong point. He writes a fantasy story with romance, but he can't tell if the romance will be able to attract female readers. Out of curiosity, he asked some of his fellow authors the question "Why do you read romance stories?"

Here are their answers…

Kyosei: Because I am single. 

Reili: To fill my empty void of a love life.

Minrei: Because romance let you feel what is to be loved, plus it is universal you dont need to learn magic or cultivation in order to read.

Bajj: Due to lack of romance irl.

Murakami: I read because I enjoy the friction and conflict between the FL and ML. The insistence vs resistance is naisu.

Qin: I reads romance only for ideas and info.

VlassisBehrakis: I don't read romance novels.

[A/N: Oof I asked the wrong person.]

Elyon then  ̶a̶m̶b̶u̶s̶h̶e̶d̶ asked some readers about their opinion about romance novels.

Yin: I read romance novels because I want that kind of drama to happen to me in real life. But I know it will never happen haha.

A Certain Irresistible Meowlin: I wonder why? And I do read romance novels. Though the chance of me dropping them is also the highest out of all the genres. Every so often I come across a scene that makes me just want to squeal and fangirl. 

----------------------------------

Elyon decided to dig deeper and asked a few of his senior "romance authors" some questions about their reason for writing romance stories.

The first question is… Why did you choose to write Romance Stories?

Anjeeriku: I'm comfortable writing romance stories compared to other genres. I'm a helpless romantic person and I like novels that can invoke other people's feelings.

Bajj: First of all, I like reading romance story. It was the reason why I read books before and reading other genres comes after. All in all, due to these romance fiction books, I got the opportunity to read more great books with different genre.

MishaK: That's what I read, so write that too.

Zehell2218: Because as reader, I want to read romance novel so when I write, I write romance since my motto is I write what I want to read.

Ikazainudin: The easiest genre. Everyone can relate.

End_of_Era: It wasn't a full on Romance, it was slice of life with romance which I feel was necessary with progression of the characters.

----------------------------------


The second question… When you were making your ML and FL, did you imagine yourself as the lead of your story at any given point in time?

Anjeeriku: I would be a liar if I said no. There were instances that I'd put myself in my FL's shoes. Whenever that happens, my writing feels more passionate and truthful that sometimes it was hard to know where my fl starts and where I end. 

Shen Yi, LMD's ML was based on a person I've lost, The One That Got Away so it was sometimes hard not to self-insert whenever there were scenes that need to invoke feelings from readers. 

Bajj: I believe that every character the author was making and breathing life into it, a part of him/her is added to its character. But me imagining of being the ML/FL, never. I'm too pure for that. Kek

MishaK: Yes I did but sometimes. Otherwise you can't infuse emotions in your characters. It is important to understand your characters.

Zehell2218: Yes, I imagine myself as the lead. Of course, I tweak it a bit, such as in age and appearance. But mostly, the characteristics is similar to me.

Ikazainudin: FL and ML character based on what I want to be irl. Yup. I imagine that will be my love story.

End_of_Era: Yes, my leads had some ocassional self insertion.

----------------------------------

The third question… If you were to choose some other genre aside from romance, what would you pick?

Anjeeriku: Fantasy. I always look up to those authors who can write fantasy stories/novels well. I believe writing a fantasy novel is harder than writing romance. 

[A/N: Ahem! 10 points to Griffindor!]

Bajj: Horror/thriller/Action. Read GGGB godamnit! [Good Girl Gone Bad]

MishaK: I am writing a Fantasy romance aside from regular vanilla romance *smile emoticon*

Zehell2218: Fantasy, magical realism, fan fiction.

Ikazainudin: Psychological/horror and maybe children story.

The fourth and final question… If you were to give a message to your beloved readers, what would it be?

Anjeeriku: I'm sorry for not being inconsistent with updates. Y'all know I love you, but a little consideration and patience as I face this rough patch in my life would be very much appreciated.

Bajj: Vote me please :* mass release comes after, deal?

[A/N: Oof!]

MishaK: Be responsible in reviewing the book you are reading. Authors love to listen from their readers. So talk to them.

Author's Thoughts

Hello Guys! I hope you enjoyed this chapter of WWCG. Personally, I've read a few CEO novels myself. I also read some FL stories like A Slight Smile Is Devastating (Love O2O), Hidden Marriage, Doomed to be Cannon Fodder, Transmigrator meets Reincarnator, A Mistaken Marriage Match: A Generation of Military Counselor, There Is an Angel in That Church (short story), Eight Treasures Trousseau, Grabbing Your Hand, Dragging you Away, A Mistaken Marriage Match: Record of Washed Grievances…

Ai~ there's a few more that I won't add to the list because it will create a wall of text. Well anyways, the reason why I read these stories is to get an idea on "WHY" the ladies love to read them.

Let's just say that it's a unique way to see a world in the eye of a lady (if you are a man of course). When done properly, the execution of the story can capture the hearts of anyone, even male readers. I believe that no matter what gender you are, as long as you find the story interesting then it doesn't matter whether you are a guy or a gal no?

Perhaps, when I'm not too busy to write my stories, I'll once again pick a romance novel to read. Hopefully, I will find another hidden gem that will bring unexpected surprises to anyone who are lucky enough to find them.

P.S I would like to thank my fellow authors, especially my senior romance authors who answered some of my questions regarding romance novels. 

To my senior authors, May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the Power Stones shine warm upon your face, and Spirit Stones fall soft upon your fields. (￣▽￣)ノ

P.S The Cover Drawing is not mine. I just find it nice so I used it. Full credits go to the owner.

It was a long time before Chi actually pulled herself away from the Internet.  She could not give an exact period of time, but based on the dates from all the fan fiction she was reading, Chi had been immersed with her Internet cheat for over six hundred years.  It was a dream come true for her.

She had finally finished off her Netflix queues for the next five life times.  Asia had finally beaten the West in creating quality television with a Wuxia drama based on a popular web novel which nearly dominated the entire world, beating out 'Game of Thrones.'  Several classic movies were rebooted which include 'Gone with the Wind', 'Giant', 'Casablanca', and the 'Twilight' series.  The last one was changed to a television series that was surprisingly good.  Several of the episodes had story lines of the past for the vampires.  

In the news, the war on terror was over and then it came back in waves.  There were serveral instances where a world war would erupt, but luckily it still has not happen.  That is most likely due to the fact that just about every major power had nuclear weapons on hand.  This got all the hippies in the world to congregate and made themselves super annoying to the governments of the world.  Unlike back in the seventies, the hippies of the present future have social media, abilities to hack governments, and money.   

Power to the children of the Internet.

As for Lillian, Chi was happy to learn that her friend lived a happy and fulfilling life.  She had three children with the prince which included one son and twin girls.  She become queen at the age of forty-seven when the old king finally abocated the throne to her husband.  After Chi's death, Lillian created a school of arts and dedicated it to her dead friend.  The school flourished and several future stars in acting, music, and even literature became alumni.

Chi watched the movie was the based on her and Lillian's life before Lillian became royalty.  The actress who played her was annoyingly too pretty; too bad they did not have a scene of her death.  For some reason, Chi felt it would make her feel better.

However, right now, Chi needed a break.  For the past six hundred or so years, she had been sitting in the chair and barely moved from it.  A normal human body would, of course, not last past a hundred years much less six hundred.  It would also not last sitting in one position for weeks straight without moving from one position.  For Chi, mortal laws on human bodies did not apply to her.  Her improved body did not suffer from muscle atrophy, pressure sores, or any other aliment that comes from lack of movement.  In fact, the only thing she suffered from was some symptoms of heartburn or indigestion that came in sporadic times. 

When that happens, Chi simply drank or eat the water and peaches that were provided to her by the magical library.  However as of late, it was taking her a great deal longer to deal with the symptoms.  Chi remembered the last time she suffered from heartburn like discomfort, she had to drink almost twenty jugs of water and a hundred cups of her peach infused water to make it go away. She did not mind so much as the relief that came always made Chi feel better - in fact she always felt like a whole new person.

Turning on a playlist of classic Disney music, she started to take a stroll.  In her past life, Chi had gone to the local library every weekend as a child.  The tiny library was a treat for her until she got older.  When Lillian became famous enough that they would travel around the United States; Chi would find a little time to just visit some of the most famous libraries and stroll around.  Sometimes, she could get lucky and there would be an exhibit going on - the last time she visited a library there was an exhibit of Broadway costumes.

However this library was nothing but shelves and shelves of reading materials.  Other than the small clearing consisting of chair and table, it was a sea of books.  With her steps being in time of the music, Chi casually tapped the books on the left with her index finger.  The feel of the bindings was smooth with a slight texture of weaving.  The smell of aged bamboo, paper, and leather permeated through the air and was quite pleasant to the nose.  There was no dust to cover the gleam of the wood or the tops of the books.  

There was no writing on the binds of the books that could give a clue on the contents they contain.  After a walking past a few shelves, Chi picked out a thick book and started to flip the pages.  She paused at first sight before closing it.  Blinking a few times, she rubbed her eyes before opening it again.  

Well, it appears she was not mistaken.  

Staring at the pages, Chi blinked rapidly as the writing on the pages started to expand and contract.  It started slow before it began to speed up to the point that Chi could swear would cause most people to go into seizures.  In fact, Chi could feel pressure mounting from her forehead.  The pressure grew to the point that she was afraid her head would explode.  Oddly enough, there was no pain, but that alarmed her even more.

She began to do the Spirit Qi Flow exercise and found it quite ineffective.  Panic should set in by now, however Chi only started to wonder if she should head-butt herself with the thick tome into unconsciousness.  Maybe she would survive getting her head blown off - after all, Chi had survived when her head got chopped off.

Just as the pressure reached its peak, it began to slowly release itself like air from a balloon.  Chi sighed in relief as the idea of her head exploding was now out of the running.  As soon as the pressure was gone, Chi looked down at the open book in her hand.  It took her a moment, but Chi saw that she was able to read the writing on the pages.

"The meat of a Volcanic Boar should be processed carefully before use.  In most cases, one should be using a blade made from Ice Obsidian and cut against the grain..."

It was at that moment when Disney's 'Peter Pan' song called 'You Can Fly' started to chime in her ears.  As weird as that was, Chi felt to be a celebratory mood that she switched the music to Quincy Jones' 'Soul Bossa Nova' and started to dance.  Unlike before, her body was actually moving gracefully and it was executing moves that Chi would never had pulled off in her previous life.  However, since there was no mirror, she could not see but only could feel that her body felt lighter and easier to control.

She played the song on repeat for some time before switching it to a playlist of New Age music.  It was time to see what this magical library contain.

***   

A loud crack pierced into Chi's ears and she looked up from a scroll that contained a technique called the Thunder Wind Fist to pinpoint where the sound came from.  It sounded like it came from the center of the library - where the table and chair were.

Chi had long given up in keeping track of time when she started to read the contents of the magical library.  Apparently her brain had been fed with ADHD drugs and she found herself concentrating on the materials at hand.  No matter how odd or how boring the books seems, Chi was able to read them and actually understand what was written in them.  It also appears that her brain could also do perfect recall now.

Banzai to the person who gave her this new life! 

Chi was pretty sure that she has read all the books and scrolls in the library to the north side of the center.  She had actually reached a wall but could not see an exit.  The north side of the library contain subjects of cultivation techniques and martial arts.  All of it was interesting but Chi soon learned that reading about it did not mean she could perform such marital arts.

In web novels, there were main characters who could perform techniques after one or two tries.  When Chi tried to copy the moves, she felt completely awkward.  It was not until a few more books later, that she realized that most of the martial arts she had learned required a certain type of cultivation technique to go along with it.  Since she had only learned one simple cultivation technique, Chi was unable to perform the marital arts to their full potential.

She did try to learn another cultivation technique, but Chi found that it required more concentration than what she was willing to part with since it was difficult to use her Internet cheat along with the new technique.  A real hero would have given up such frivolous things like music, videos, and web novels; Chi is not a real hero and she rather have her Internet cheat over performing martial arts.  If she wanted martial arts, there are plenty of movies and dramas with actors and stunt doubles who can performed them better.  

Giving a quick scan of the scroll so that she could remember it again, Chi carefully put it away before rushing towards the center.   Her steps were light and barely touched the ground.  Once in a while, she gave a great leap into the air that covered nearly a hundred book shelves before she landed.  She remember the first time she tried leaping in the air and had crashed head first into the ground.  Amazing enough, it did not hurt, but it took her a long time to learn how to land on her feet.  

With the amount of times she landed on her head, butt, belly, and back; Chi was pretty sure that she had died at least a thousand times over.  Luckily, she had not crashed into the shelves.  She would have hated to pick and organized everything.

Thank you, Magical Library.

As she grew closer, Chi began to notice a faint fruity aroma.  It grew stronger and she soon began to smell the the undertone of alcohol.  Instead of it being coiling like most wines and spirits she knew, it was soothing and it made the fruity aroma change to a more flora tone scent.  

By the time she arrived to the center, Chi could now recognized the smell to be peach wine and she was feeling tipsy from the smell alone.  Looking around the center, she could identify where the smell came from - the stone jar.  

Chi had actually forgotten about the stone jar.  However, now she cannot ignored it.  The wax seal had broken and the small broken parts were falling off it,  Rubbing her ears, Chi briefly wondered how broken wax could sound so loud.  Approaching the jar, she carefully wiped away as much of the wax away from the jar before opening the lid.  

A powerful aroma slammed her face and Chi slammed it closed.  In her previous life, Chi could not handle alcohol well.  A third of a cocktail was enough to get her tipsy.  A glass of wine was okay if she had a full meal before hand, and her own cocktails mostly consists of a splash of alcohol in a cup of juice.

However based on the smell alone, this peach wine seemed to be potent stuff.  Chi cursed whatever asshole had left it in the magical library in the first place.  Who the hell leaves alcohol in library?  The answer quickly came to her and she rolled her eyes at the stupidity of the question.  Only super rich assholes have alcohol in a library.

The important question Chi should be asking herself is what should she do with this jar of wine?  If she leaves it alone, the wine was going to oxidizes and turn itself into vinager or worse.  Chi did not like the idea of having to deal with the smell for the rest of this eternity.  Worse, there was not a sink or bathroom in this place that she could dispose the wine in.  

There was only one option - Chi was going to have to drink it up.  Hopefully the jar did not have the magic like the jug of water or the peaches.  She shudder at the thought that she could have to drink wine for the rest of her life.

Opening the jar again, Chi looked inside of the jar while holding her breath.  The inside of the jar was a beautiful jade green liquid.  It was nothing like all other green liquors that she had seen before.  Dipping a finger into the wine, Chi licked a drop and blinked in surprised.  Despite the heavy aroma, the wine itself was quite light in taste.  There was no heavily alcohol taste but a sweet flavor of white peaches with a slight mineral undertone.  

Taking the bamboo cup, she slowly poured a small amount before replacing the lid to the jar.  Swirling the contents of the cup, Chi admire the green wine before taking a small sip.  The sip of wine was exquisite.  She could barely taste the alcohol - no the alcohol seemed to make the sweetness of the white peaches to mature and evolve.  The new taste reminded Chi of the first time when she tasted malt sugar.  It opened her eyes to the different types of sugar besides white and brown.

She slowly finished what was left in the cup and waited for a few minutes.  Taking an internal review of herself, Chi decided that she could handle this wine if she took her time about it.  A good wine like this deserve to be apperciated as long as possible.  Sitting down on the chair with the jar on her lap, Chi leaned back until the chair was standing on two legs, her feet on the table, and accessed her Internet cheat for something to read.

Maybe it was time to read the classics - starting with 'War and Peace.'

***

Opening her eyes, Chi blinked up in surprise because she was sure that she did not fall asleep.  She was pretty sure that she did not need to sleep.  Looking around, she deduced that she had fallen off the chair since she was on the floor.  While she seemed to be in one piece, the wine jar had broken into pieces.

"Shit - I hope I don't have to pay for that."

"Considering that it was originally placed here without Our permission, the culprit will have to suffer in disappointment."

Shock froze her brain at hearing a voice for the first time in forever.  With a quick move, she was up and staring at a tall Asian man looking down at her in amusement.  He was quite good looking - he reminded her of that tall Korean-American actor who did a voice acting bit for a popular animation movie back in the early 2010s.

It was the nose.  This man's nose is top quality.  Chi could easily believe that all the men and women of the world would pay millions to have that nose.

Taking her eye off the nose, she noticed the clothing the man was wearing.  Despite the simple hairstyle, the hairpins were top quality in gold and jade.  The outer robe he was wearing was pure gold and cream brocade with a pattern embroidered to it.  Simple, elegant, and clean shaven - this was a man who could stand on top of the world.

A man wearing the seal of the Emperor of Heavens on his clothes.

The faint memory of her last day in her old world slowly emerge and Chi gulped before slowly and gracefully kneeled to the ground and bowed her head.

"Am I in the presence of the great Emperor of Heaven, father to the Seventh Imperial Prince Feng Kai?"

The man who Chi now knew was the Emperor simple chuckled before moving the pieces of jar away from his person with his foot.  

"Indeed, We are.  Tell Us, was the wine quite good?"

That was a weird question but Chi answered.

"Quite good, I believed it aged over a thousand years before I had to drink it.  The wax that sealed the jar had broken and I felt it was necessary to not let the wine go to waste."

"You speak quite oddly.  Pity there is no more left.  This pleases Us well enough.  If the Great Sage is unable to taste this miracle wine, then We will accept the loss."

Wait a minute, was the Emperor going to put all the blame on her when this Great Sage starts to bitch about their missing wine?  Shit, she had let her guard down.  What was the use of reading web novels when she does not pay attention to the parts with tricky emperors?   Chi really was not main character material here.

"My apologies, your imperial majesty.  It has been quite some time since I have talked with another person.  My dialect is that from my previous home before I was killed and sent to this library."

Her reply must have amused the Emperor greatly since he raised one eye brow in disbelief before shaking his head.  

"We shall pardon you.  However this place you call a library is incorrect.  This place is the Forbidden Wing of the Heavenly Palace.  No one should be able to access this room without Our orders or authority."

Suddenly, Chi felt like she went from the frying pan and into the fire

Whiny maid bitches, she was coming for them.

When Chi died in the mortal 21st century world, she ultimately finds herself in the Heavenly Spiritual World thanks to the youngest prince of the Emperor of Heaven.  

She is to be the personal attendant of the young prince which causes way too many young maids to be jealous.

Thus they shut her up into a forbidden room and it automatically sealed itself up.  

Luckily for Chi, the room happens to be the secret Palace library in which she explored and skimmed the books before finding an amazing spell which allows her mind to connect with the Internet from her previous life.  With that, she spent several centuries exploring the Internet, streaming videos, reading fiction, and listening to music while cultivating with the most basic of lessons. 

By the time someone releases her, Chi discovers that her power level matches to that of the Emperor himself!  Luckily, she is still considered to be the youngest prince's personal attendant so the two spend many happy centuries as master and servant.  

Unfortunately, Chi ends up spoiling her young prince with spiritually rich meals, competent work, and the ability to make connections with benefits.  Thus she gets no vacation time.  

When the young prince gets incarnated into a mortal being as is the rite of passage for young deities, he cheats his way into remembering his old life and calls on Chi to help him deal with his mortal life.

Having no choice, she pops down to the mortal world whenever her master calls upon her for the most basic of orders.  Cooking foods that fits his tastes, drawing out spirit rich baths, cleaning his clothes, and helping him escape from persist young ladies.  

However, when her master orders her to incarnate into a mortal to become a maid for a mortal girl he fancies; Chi refuses.  No way in Hell would she be a mortal again - especially in a world where there has been barely any change in evolution or technology for the past several millenia.

Furious that his loyal personal attendant refusing his order with good reason, the prince manages to find a way to get her into the mortal world - transmigration.

Therefore, Chi is forced to be transmigrated into the mortal world.

At least she still has her power level, her fatty armor, her Cauldren of Broken, and several other items from home.  If Chi was going to suffer being in the mortal world, she was going to suffer in style.  

As the personal attendant of a Heavenly Imperial Prince, Chi might as well help out with his love life.
