Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately.

Deep within a cruel jungle where the treetops whisper secrets and the shadows have ancestral power, a young boy named Micheal is 'woken' to a destiny he never pursued. Drafted by the jungle, he is thrown into a world of magic, danger, and mystery where the line of friend and foe blurs with each passing step. It is alive-an old, sprawling force full of beauty and danger. The thing is, it is fractured, too. Beneath the surface teeming with life, darkness brews, ready to consume everything in its path. As Micheal explores this living maze, he finds the jungle's magic is not only a means but an organized, muscular force-one that shapes, empowers, and razes. It has chosen him as its vessel. But this gift comes with a price: every victory that Micheal wins drags him deeper into the web of the jungle, testing his courage, his will, and his very humanity. With such shadowy figures as Vaelor, who wish to twist his purpose, and allies whose guidance is laced with danger, Micheal has to decide if he should give in to the magic of the jungle and lose himself or resist it at the risk of everything else. On one final conflict between the forces of old, Micheal's decisions will seal more than his fate. The balance of the jungle, maybe even the world, rests on his shoulders. A tale of discovery, survival, and sacrifice-this is a journey where even the most insignificant decisions have the potential to echo across a world of magic and mystery. Micheal didn't ask for this road, yet he must walk it. The jungle has called him, and its heart waits for no one.

Read the complete synopsis before reading the novel. ---- An ordinary guy was thinking of confessing his love to a girl at the end of summer break, but he died before he could confess. He reincarnates into a new world and realizes he is in the world of the game he played. The game was a bit complex, with lots of choices and twists, but in simple words, it had a protagonist and five heroines. Making the correct choices would keep all heroines alive and end up with the protagonist, while incorrect choices would lead to the death of the heroine. The person responsible for killing the heroine if the player makes the incorrect choice is Akechi Ryuki, the best friend of the protagonist. Now, our normal guy possesses Akechi Ryuki. What is he going to do? Will he do the same as the real Akechi Ryuki would do? Or will he do something even worse? Or will he ignore them? ---- MC is a good person, but he has many perverted fetishes and fantasies, which he will make heroines fulfill since heroines also have such fetishes.

"Master of the Great Dream" (Cross-Dimensional Trading, Dominating the Universe, Dream Travel) Li Xuan is diagnosed with a mental illness! The reason? Two months ago, he began having nightmares, and whenever he falls asleep, his consciousness enters another parallel world. In this world, an apocalypse has been ravaging for two full months. There’s another man named Li Xuan, who, in the midst of the end-of-world calamities, has endured extreme cold, heat, acid rain, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, virus infections—and most terrifying of all, the outbreak of zombies. Order has collapsed completely, laws are nonexistent, and morality has been ruthlessly trampled. For two months, Li Xuan has been struggling to survive in the apocalypse, while the urban Li Xuan has been tormented by nightmares for the same amount of time. Finally, when the apocalyptic Li Xuan unexpectedly kills his first zombie and consumes its crystal core, his spatial powers awaken. The next morning, when urban Li Xuan wakes up, he is shocked to find that this wasn’t just a dream. The gold and jewels he stored in the space are truly tangible and can be retrieved in reality. Similarly, the pork ribs, bread, instant noodles, fruits, and water he bought in the city can also be stored in the space. The two Li Xuans from different parallel worlds can share resources with each other through their dream space. What does this mean for Li Xuan?
