Maxwell Screw Rule

I am Rinette, and I feel I do not belong in this world. I thought it was just a teenage phase, but things took a turn. Maybe my daydreams or nightmares whatever you call it, became real..

The day the sky split open, the world changed forever. Nine realms descended upon Earth, fusing into one. Magic surged through the land, beasts from forgotten myths roamed freely, and humans… they awakened systems that dictated their fate. Warriors, mages, assassins—each bound by the roles assigned to them. But not him. Yuji was supposed to be just another survivor in this new world. Instead, he was struck by an unknown force during the merger and disappeared from sight. When he awoke, the world had changed—and so had he. He possessed an ability unlike any other. He could modify a person’s system, rewriting their destiny. But there were limits. He could not force his power upon others—they had to accept his gift. And even then, time was his enemy—his ability could only be used sparingly, making every decision a gamble. If anyone discovered what he could do, kings and warlords would hunt him, factions would seek to control him, and the very balance of power would collapse. So he would remain in the shadows. He would choose who to empower, when to act, and how to build his strength. And above all… He would only raise women. Strong. Beautiful. Devoted. He would forge a kingdom where no man held power—where every warrior, every queen, every legend belonged to him.

Five years ago, Elara Voss made one mistake—she fell for a stranger. It was supposed to be one night. No names, no strings. But when morning came, he was gone, leaving her with two unexpected consequences—Olivia and Oliver, her twin children. Now, Elara has built a new life, raising her kids alone while working as a top event planner. She's independent, successful, and determined to never look back. Until Cassian Rhys walks back into her life. Cold, ruthless, and powerful, he is the billionaire CEO of Rhys Industries—and the man she never wanted to see again. He doesn't recognize her at first… but when he does, the truth is only a breath away from being exposed. Cassian doesn't believe in fate. But when he meets Olivia and Oliver, something about them feels strangely familiar. Too familiar. And Elara knows it's only a matter of time before he puts the pieces together. She must keep her secret. He must uncover the truth. And neither of them is ready for what happens when the past comes crashing back.

"Dimensional System? What the hell is that?" A boy regained the previous life's memories and also awakened heaven defying talent and profession. But the catch is that he is in a novel world and this going to destroy in next 5 years. "Will he able to survive?" What the benefit of having so heaven defying luck when world is going to destroy! Having no choices, he resolved himself to find a way.

In this apocalyptic world, human society collapsed under the weight of an unforeseen catastrophe. Zombies roam unchecked, resources are scarce, and survival has become everyone's most urgent priority. In this chaotic new reality, the strong rule while the weak are prey. The protagonist, Tang Ze, is an enigmatic figure. Not only does he possess immense physical power, but his mind is as intricate and unpredictable as the world around him. Whether facing the relentless onslaught of zombies or navigating the treacherous politics of rival factions, Tang Ze exhibits remarkable intelligence and ruthless efficiency. He deals with provocations from enemies and betrayals by friends alike with swift, decisive action. Yet beneath his hardened exterior lies a sliver of warmth—especially when it comes to protecting his family and true companions. When challenged, Tang Ze drew a massive saber from his waist—a weapon known as a "horse-cutting blade"—and with a chilling smile, brought it down in one fluid motion. A grotesque, charred hand thudded to the ground, followed by the rest of the body splitting cleanly in half at the waist. Entrails spilled out onto the dirt, painting a gruesome scene. The crowd was stunned into silence by the sheer ferocity of the act. Such raw strength! To split a man in two with a single blow… "He’s no ordinary fighter," someone muttered. "No wonder he dares to travel with two beautiful women." With a flick of his wrist, Tang Ze shook the blood from the gleaming blade, leaving streaks across the ground. His voice was calm but carried an unmistakable edge: “Touch my supplies, and you cut off my lifeline. The punishment for that is death.” The onlookers exchanged uneasy glances before finally settling their attention on Dong Fei. “If we take care of this delivery guy,” one whispered, “maybe we can have a little fun with those two women. Better to die a satisfied man than starve like a dog.” Sun Ting exhaled softly, relieved. She had always known Tang Ze wasn’t one for unnecessary bravado; if he were, he would’ve taken her along long ago. Still, the sight of the mutilated corpse beside her made her stomach churn with disgust. But just as the tension seemed to ease, Tang Ze let out a cold laugh. “It seems some of you still don’t understand the situation,” he said, his eyes scanning the crowd. “Who wants to be next?” ... The novel’s plot twists and turns, weaving intense battle scenes, complex interpersonal relationships, and heart-stopping moments of suspense. It celebrates the brighter aspects of humanity while unflinchingly exposing its darkest desires. Through a series of gripping stories, readers are invited to witness how humans struggle to survive in the harshest conditions—and how they find hope even in the depths of despair. This is more than just a tale of survival in a post-apocalyptic world; it is a profound exploration of humanity, family, friendship, and love. If you enjoy thrilling plots, richly developed characters, and thought-provoking themes, step into the world of Tang Ze.

You’d think seeing the future would give me a head start on surviving the apocalypse. I had it all planned—until everything I knew shattered when my husband sacrificed himself to save me and our son. Now it’s just me, my three-year-old son Leo, and my cursed gift of foresight that only seems to kick in when it’s nearly too late. I’m doing my best to keep us safe, to find food, to make some kind of plan— “Mommy?” I glance down, trying to ignore the tug on my pant leg as I focus on our supplies. “Not now, Leo. Mommy’s thinking.” “Mommy!” I sigh and finally look down. My three-year-old is standing there, clutching… I blink. “Leo, where did you get a knife?” He shrugs, grinning like it’s the most natural thing in the world. My heart stutters. “No, really. Where did you find that?” I try not to laugh. I mean, he’s three. Maybe he just—found it somewhere? But the next day, it’s a water bottle. Then, a tiny flashlight, somehow with batteries still inside. I don’t even know what else; he’s pulling things out one by one with the pleased grin of a kid who’s just figured out his favorite game. Well, we may just survive this mess after all. Now, if only the universe could have spared me from him. I don’t even know his name, but I know his type: tall, broad, and annoyingly handsome, with an air of calm control that’s out of place in this chaos. Ex-military, if I had to guess, with a voice that’s just as infuriating as his smirk. The man has a habit of showing up at the worst—or best—possible times, with a gun at the ready and secrets buried as deep as those bright green eyes. I mean, he’s probably useful, but I’m trying to keep my eyes on the prize here: survival. For Leo and me. Because, foresight or no foresight, nothing is guaranteed in this new world—except the fact that people like him are trouble.

A/N: I don't do a lot of hand-holding, so you have to figure out the subtle and not-so-subtle stuff. Good luck. One early spring day, Alum and his classmates fell victim to a spatial quake—descending to Lethren—the strongest line of defense. The students gained magical abilities—not to be heroes, but just because it was expected. Even with the supernatural, Alum seemed aloof but more mellow—his world hadn’t changed, but the same couldn’t be said for those around him. However… that changed—he fell in love with a Saint at first sight. Saint Amethely, despite being new to the role, is loved by everyone. She is sweet, caring, and elegant but has to carry the grand legacy of her Grandmother, the previous Saint. Despite that, she was still a shy girl, slightly clumsy, with no romance experience. But only a few knew of her awkward side. So how could he make an elegant Imperial Saint fall for him…? He, who in this world was but a nobody? There were a few options—become recognizable. Except… the shy girl Amethely had already fallen in love at first sight—Alum being the culprit. An aloof youth whose world changed and an elegant Imperial Saint, how would their love blossom? But… change was never easy for someone like him. Whichever world—his was never kind. Even in this beautiful and vibrant world—incredible magic beasts and abominations were cruel and unyielding.

--- In the heavens, there exists a name that cannot be spoken casually. It is believed to be ominous. People often refer to this figure as the Devil King. He is the most ruthless and cruelest cultivator in the heavens, yet he is also the strongest. No one dares to confront him. One day, however, when all his enemies unite in an attempt to attack him, they fail to kill him. Ultimately, it is his own daughter-like disciple who betrays him and strikes from behind. Born in another world with the pure heart of a young boy, he is destined to enjoy this life to its fullest. His ambitions include forming a harem, conquering kingdoms, turning others into his loyal subjects, and becoming the strongest being in the universe. He will eliminate anyone who dares to come into his way. He inherits a supreme legacy that grants him the power to become the greatest force in existence. Combined with his sharp, scheming mind and vast knowledge, even immortals find themselves begging for his mercy. **Author's Note**: Although there will be elements of harem and the concept of sex slaves, rest assured there will not be any explicit adult chapters. I apologize for the darker themes, but the main character is portrayed as cruel, evil, and cunning. He adapts his attitude according to the situation—don’t worry; he’s not foolish and won’t kill without any reason. As I already mentioned he retained a pure heart in this life which stops him from uneccesary killing but not always.... Ultimately he is the devil king so he cant change his nature. Am I right ? (*~*) He is generally ruthless only towards his enemies. This is not a story of a naive protagonist; rather, he is a master schemer who ensures everything unfolds according to his plans. I have read over 100 cultivation novels, but this is my first attempt at writing one, so I appreciate your understanding of any mistakes. I hope you enjoy reading. The first few chapters may seem boring as they contain essential information, but trust me, the later chapters will become increasingly captivating, and you will surely find enjoyment in them.

Title: "The Forgotten Heiress: Rules of Rebirth" When Sang Ning blinked awake in a rural farmhouse, the 21st century gained its most anachronistic socialite. The former crown jewel of Ming Dynasty aristocracy—trained from birth to command households and outmaneuver concubines—now found herself reborn as Nan Group's long-lost heiress. Her "sister"? A champagne-drenched fraud waving a Stanford diploma. "Your honors thesis plagiarizes 14th-century embroidery manuals," Sang Ning remarked over afternoon tea, her hanfu sleeves fluttering like war banners. The Nans soon learned bloodlines matter: This "peasant girl" restored ancestral shrines in a week, turned board meetings into imperial courts, and made their five-star chefs kneel when serving shark fin soup. Meanwhile, Beijing's most notorious heir was breaking his own rules. Jason He, whose Lamborghini collisions made tabloid gold, found himself obsessed with teaching modern customs to the time-traveling noblewoman: "Handshakes require... seven seconds of eye contact." His thumb stroked her pulse point. "Corporate dinners mandate... partner dancing." His grip slid lower at the waltz's crescendo. When she pressed a jade hairpin to his throat after an attempted goodnight kiss, the billionaire playboy grinned through bleeding lips: "Careful, princess. In this era, drawing blood means signing marriage contracts." In a world of silicon valley and silicon fillers, a queen from China's golden age is rewriting the rules of power—and passion.

I just wanted to relax. Instead, I’m over here saving the world, one bad decision at a time. Because if I have to suffer through this stupid otome game— I might as well make it fun. --- This novel is full of profanity so if you don't like cursing then ignore this one.
