One Last System

Scorned by the world he was born in, Arthur had no other choice but to learn how to deal with it. Yet, just as his hard work and dedication were about to pay off, the hate towards his origins brought him to his death. But that wasn't his fate. His future wasn't supposed to end with his head cracking against the edge of the stairs. His bloodline could not die as that would be against the wish of the universe itself. Thrown to another world, he found himself in a situation where the skills and craft he honed would be no longer of use. His patience, his creativity, his logical thinking were no longer in demand in a world where strength reigned supreme. Or was it? "My system is overpowered. I'm not shameless enough to deny it." "Scores of women and slaves all around? Those are the wishes of a naive kid, not mine." "Lower the price of those apples by a quarter and we will have a deal!" "Dear, stop, I cannot hold any longer!" Jump in and follow Arthur's adventures as he proves that even the illogical world of sword and cultivation has its own rules. Laws, that one can learn, laws, that Arthur sets off to use to his own advantage! **** This novel will have some comedic elements, but it won't be the core of the story. I also won't hold back any punches when it comes to dark humor, heavy elements or morally ambiguous aspects. If you are looking for a fckboy/edgelord/cliche, then his novel is not for you.

Slippery slope (+18)

'It's good to be young,' I thought, recalling Vaner's words as we moved through the corridor just like he ordered. 'But it's not so great to feel so awkward,' I added in my own thoughts, completely silent on the outside.

Looking up, I could see the profile of Mia's face. As she hurried to lead the way, I could only see how her cheeks were already red, proving that she also had some troubles dealing with her own mental state.

But there was only so long that we could walk through the corridor in silence. In just a few steps, we reached the doors that Vaner described.

"How about we open them together?" Mia finally spoke up, turning her head around and sending me a weird look.

'What, are we newlyweds now?' I thought, laughing at the idea for a second before the reality struck me. In a sense, that statement wouldn't be that far from reality.

"Yeah, together," I muttered, barely able to deal with my awkwardness.
