Max Level Returner

After falling asleep on a late-night train, best friends Thea Quinnell and Igor Zelinsky wake up in a spotless, surreal station that doesn’t exist on any map. The signs say, "You are right where you’re meant to be. The experience will begin shortly." What follows is a descent into a hidden corporate test site — a massive psychological maze where each level warps reality, tests survival instincts, and twists their past into something unrecognizable. Some people here have forgotten the real world. Some aren’t human at all. And someone is watching them very closely. There’s one final rule: Only one can leave. But Thea and Igor? They don’t play by the rules.

When the world ended, it wasn’t with a bang — but with silence. In one brutal instant, all of humanity was wiped out, leaving behind only a single survivor from each country — each forced to play a merciless game to decide who deserves to live. Thrown into an endless nightmare of forests crawling with beasts, deadly traps, and shifting battlegrounds, these last survivors must clear one hundred lethal levels to win back their right to exist. Fail — and their entire nation vanishes with them. Among them is Aarav — an ordinary boy with no heroic past and no grand ambition, only a desperate will to survive. But as the trials grow crueler, Aarav begins to discover something buried deep within himself: a power that moves his body faster than thought — a strange instinct that awakens when he’s standing on the edge of death. Monsters and twisted creatures lurk in the dark. Other survivors will betray without hesitation. And far above, someone — or something — is watching, always watching, waiting for the last one standing. One hundred levels. One chance to live. One wrong move and it’s over. Survive the Levels — or die trying. ...

"When she read, Lisa had always hated villains. In her defense, she never expected to become one." Lisa was an avid reader, and among all the books she loved, she had a new obsession: Beauty and Power, a book in which the main villain shared her name. The book began with two characters, Lisa and Eleanor, who, during a vacation trip, ended up getting lost in a cave and found themselves in the world of beasts. They were best friends and did everything together, so it was no surprise when both transmigrated to the same world. In the world of beasts, they were the most beautiful and caught the attention of the most powerful males. Over time, however, Lisa's envy and ambition grew stronger and stronger. The friends soon became rivals and then enemies. Lisa, the villain, led the fox clan against the tiger clan in the book’s final battle, where she was ultimately defeated by the protagonist, Eleanor. As a consequence of her sins, she was blamed for the war and sold into slavery. To ensure she could never manipulate anyone again, her tongue was cut out. That was the price she paid for her greed. "Now that was a great ending!" Lisa exclaimed, delighted by the story. However, she was far less thrilled when she woke up in the villain’s body. Sold as a slave and unable to speak, Lisa could only rely on her intelligence to survive in that body. But after all, what could she do with the body of a notorious criminal?

Feng Zhaoyun—just as his name suggests, the only time he might’ve looked even remotely ugly was probably when he was still in his mother’s womb. The only misfortune in his life? Growing up without knowing who his parents were. But that didn’t matter, because luck had always been on his side. His life went so smoothly, so absurdly well, that he never once needed help from anyone. He once thought his life would continue like that—easy and boring—all the way to the end. Until one day, he saved a drowning child… and was dragged away by the river himself. When he opened his eyes again, he was in a completely different world, in a completely different body… Heavens! Was this the universe making up for his twenty years of monotony? Finally, a little chaos! He was moved to tears! “What?! I have to share a body with someone else?! Since when did transmigration systems become this stingy?! Crossing into another world and I don’t even get a body of my own?! Where are my human rights?!” Feng Zhaoyun roared in fury. The system coldly tossed a script at him: “Complete the mission faster, and you’ll get your body faster.” “Get out of my body!” A bone-chilling voice rang from the young man who now shared a body with him, hatred dripping from every syllable—he looked like he wanted to split Feng Zhaoyun’s soul in half with a single slash. Feng Zhaoyun just chuckled: “Hehe.” He happily embraced the chaos. Unfortunately… someone else clearly wasn’t enjoying it as much. Little did Zhaoyun know, this “twist” was only the beginning… . . . There are countless people who want to bring me down... But luck has always stood with me!

[The RETURNER FANTASY system has been granted to you in response to your dying wish] [Initiating regression in 3... 2... 1...] That was the voice Jeff heard in the final moments of his life—just before death claimed him. Or at least, that's how he remembers it, now that he's woken up twelve years in the past. Back to the moment when he still had a chance to change everything he thought had gone wrong. Forget the incurable disease. Forget the mystery of how he regressed. Forget even the holographic screen flashing in the corner of his vision. What matters now is the quest he's on—and the girl he's running toward. She had stayed by his side even when he had nothing. She forgave him for the foolishness that had torn them apart. She was there in his final moments, when regret overwhelmed him for never telling her how he truly felt. This time, he wouldn't make the same mistake. This time, he'd protect her—no matter what. Even if it cost him his life… or someone else's. [Warning: Contains Mature, Sexual, and Violence content.] This book will have a lot of mature and sexual content.

In a normal ongoing world (earth), people going on there daily tasks and working place as normal. Life continues as usual!!! Suddenly!! sky blue view slowly taken a drastic turn and slowly turns into red color like evening sky. 'Hah?? (Someone notice) Is it already 5:00 PM or what??' (While looking sharply at the sky) 'Hey! Mom look at the sky. Its kind of weird.' (A little girl noticed and calls her mother to look at the scenery.) 'Oh! Yeah it's a bit weird.' (Her mother responses) Hmm!?? Is it a hole or what?? (She looks something with wide eyes) Suddenly!! *Crack! Split!! (like a broken mirror) red sky got break like a hole in space-time fabric and...... *Whoooosh gradually taken a shape of a big blue WORMHOLE in flat horizontal way on sky and like from a complete void, some thing -- appeared.... from other side of that portal and obviously not a humanly figure but... something which we can only assume in our old fantasy stories. (Want to know?? Then go read the *PROLOGUE of this story) However in short... this sudden extraordinary and otherworldly phenomena led to a disruption in the sky, causing by some unknown huge force a pathway in space-time fabric of various distant spots to be connected with each other, leading to the interlink between foreign worlds we never even get to know through our various space operations that led to the emergence of, what we can only say is by its whole structure and function, 'A DUNGEON' throughout the whole world in different countries, places and landscape which is still hidden from human eyes. And most biggest danger these unknown and illogical things brought upon whole world is, that it filled with various malicious and deadly unknown and some unseen but heard at least once in our childhood stories, beasts or say monsters. That by there way of actions, can only be waiting to cause havoc and bloodshed over the whole of humanity, like the once done by the very 1st "Magical Beast" appeared and land his foots on this world, through the very 1st of these magical wormhole. (The one I mentioned earlier) But as there's the equal and opposite reaction of every action, there's also the emergence of a powerful enhanced group of humankind, came to be known as 'HUNTERS' that effectively have enough potential and ability required to kill the ones that are any threat to whole mankind. Though they all are itself different from other humans too. Well, How? 'Mana/Qi/Chi/Prana/Aura' as many names as clouds in sky, you can think of this kind of energy that only can be understandable in spiritual field, leaks out in open environment of earth like thin air through these gaps in space, that somehow later acts as the main source of defend line against these insane bloody creatures, along with such other extraordinary things in play too, which those who play stimulated games of offering quests and rewards upon success of that, kind of applications knows very well. And so, with this the world enter into a new phase of revolution, as with a whole new source of clean, effortless, less cost-effective and nearly in infinite amount of energy (Mana) that can also acts as a long-running fuel in many fields of mechanics and development, many new technologies and research development goals able to be achieved and developed, in just few years of that very 1st dungeon incident in the world. The overall human society! prevailing hierarchy, class, demands, requirements and goals in life, also changed and flipped in the whole different way, which fits more of a 'brute power, strength and courage to do so', rather than just how much money one have in there pocket to do so. This is a story of a one such normal human (our MC), who in human terms at now with a new prevailing way of society, is at weakest of the food chain but still solely continued his struggle to reach at the top, for achieving his own personal goals in his life. So, let's enjoy his journey in textual form.

I don’t care for the blind masses; they are but shadows, moving without purpose. If I cannot run, I will walk. If I cannot walk, I will crawl. If I cannot crawl, I will roll.

Now, with a system that defies all logic, Timothy must carve his path, facing enemies both human and monstrous, as he ascends from the lowest depths to claim a throne none believed he could reach. AUTHORS NOTE: I put it under a restricted audience because of the following reasons; There is a huge amount of blood and gore meaning a lot of action and adventure. An equally adequate amount of romance with a pinch of R18 just to emphasize the points. Don't take the world-building to heart; Nigeria is better than that Kinda... If you survive the first volume, then keep it up after dropping your thoughts in reviews. I upload 1500+ words per chapter, and that means I may not participate in many chapter giveaways except when milestones are reached. Again, I appreciate your advice, thoughts, and criticism even more. The synopsis will keep changing as the story progresses. And yes, It's the familiar hunter's trope spun around in my head because I love the solo leveling light novel, so... have a fun read, I hope.
