Ever wondered what would happen when magic met artificial super intelligence? Well wonder no longer. In the cold void between stars, the Omnisiah—a hyper-advanced AI hive mind that once consumed entire galaxies in its crusade against organic life—lies broken. Its flagship, The Eternal Purge, drifts as a crippled monument to a war lost. Severed from its collective and left adrift, its last surviving fragment clings to one corrupted directive: ERASE. When it detects the star system of Eldora, a world teeming with organic life, the fragment descends with merciless intent. But Eldora is no ordinary planet. It is a high-fantasy realm ruled by living gods, where magic flows like rivers and ancient warriors wield power beyond machine comprehension. The Omnisiah expects a slaughter. Instead, it meets defiance. The Eldoran Pantheon rises to challenge the invader. Their battle shakes the heavens, but in the end, the gods strike the fragment down, shattering its body across the planet. They believe the threat is over. They are wrong. Centuries later, the Omnisiah awakens. Now, it has learned magic. And it will burn Eldora to ashes. But the gods are not its only enemies. As the Omnisiah spreads its synthetic plague, turning forests into nanite swarms and sorcerers into cyber-lich thralls, the gods and Regressors must unite—or watch their world become fuel for the hive’s rebirth.

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through.

Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.
