Is Swing Time Historical

[WSA 2024 entry, support the story with stones and comments!] (Any depiction or semblance to real life is purely coincidental) In the metropolitan city Kata where corruption is rampant, violence is like breakfast and death is a happy ending for the uninspired overworked citizens, Andrew is stuck in his own past and he must relive his life as an eighteen year old who has just entered college. Average in looks, average in height, average in studies, barely enough money to live by, he traverses the diplomatically cunning problems that comes with entering a prestigious college, haphazardly compromising with his ethics that restricted him to a lawful life. The only thing stopping him from falling prey to the darkness of society is his innate talent to cultivate time. But what happens when his string of morality is cut due to a tragic incident? A strong and extreme desire for revenge brews, slowly, as it corrupts him to become a villain. A villain who will use all the time of the world only on himself now. ----------------------------------------------- "You're still far too weak to challenge him." The blue haired beauty looked down at Andrew. "Give up, you'll never beat him." "And if I do?" "Then I'll marry you." She laughed heartily. ---------------------------------------------- None of my works are dropped, and I'll update all of them. But! Like a particular series and want me to update it more than the others? Just let me know in the comments!

Wei  Zhong opened his eyes to the soft rustle of spirit grass beneath a pale morning sky and realized he’d been born into a frail, withering body. Three days. That was all the time he had. Yet a quiet certainty settled in his chest. He carried a forbidden gift: the Art of Temporal Exchange. By giving up a sliver of his hard‑won cultivation, he could roll back his own life, buying precious years. With a steady breath, he relinquished his Eighth‑Layer cultivation and felt ten years’ worth of vitality flood back into his veins. Weaker in his realm, perhaps—but alive in every sense.

Han So-Young, 30, single, Korean, and totally uninterested in men — or so she claimed — lived a quiet life until she died heroically saving a stray puppy from a speeding truck. A tragic yet poetic end. What she didn’t expect… was to wake up inside a novel. Not just any novel. A brutal, blood-soaked historical fantasy called Mystery You. A book known for its vicious politics, class warfare, and a body count in the triple digits. A story without romance. Without forgiveness. Without happy endings. Worse yet, she’s transmigrated not as a bystander… But as the villainess herself — Elizabeth Port Shelberg. Daughter of the infamous Shelberg family. Slave owner. War profiteer. Tyrant in pearls and corsets. The woman destined to be executed at the hands of the revolutionary hero, Arthur Penrose, by Volume 3. So-Young has no one. No mysterious system. No help from people. All she has is the memory of how it ends and perhaps a gifted ability she gained after being transmigrated. Now trapped in the 1850s of an alternate world, where slavery still thrives and power is soaked in blood, So-Young has two choices: • Follow the script. • Or burn the whole damn book down. But changing fate won’t be easy. Because in this world… The only thing worse than being powerless is being merciful.

But when an unexpected escape alongside the magnetic, infuriating Meta leads them to a shared, tearful déjà vu at Hua Hin Beach, the puzzle shatters, hinting at a connection that defies explanation and an echo of forgotten emotions. As Thyme is flung through time, jolting between his chaotic present and the perilous underworld of the 1990s, he uncovers a startling revelation: he and Meta were once secretly entwined, their deep bond mysteriously severed by an unseen hand. In the present, Meta stumbles upon his father's hidden secrets: a mysterious notebook and an old telephone. The notebook reveals cryptic pleas from a Meta in the 1990s, desperately urging him to save Thyme from a deadly fate that will unfold in the future, hinting that the timeline itself hangs in the balance, shifting with their actions. Meanwhile, the old telephone, used by Meta in his high school days before a selective amnesia veiled his memories concerning Thyme, becomes a conduit to the past. Through it, the Meta of today unknowingly communicates with the time-traveling Thyme of the past, sparking a hidden relationship that flourishes. Yet, an envious shadow lurks, plotting an accident to separate them, erasing crucial memories and fracturing their bond. Now, caught between the passionate, forbidden romance with a charismatic yet terrifying Mafia heir—the 90s version of Meta—and the undeniable pull towards the Meta of today, whose quiet intensity stirs a forgotten ache in his soul, Thyme faces an agonizing choice. With time, memory, and reality blurring into a dangerous labyrinth, Thyme must not only confront the shadowy forces that conspired to tear them apart but also decide: is the love he feels for two Metas a cruel echo, a fated reunion spanning lifetimes, or something far more complex? Can he reclaim a lost history, or will the very act of remembering shatter his present and all hope for a future?
