caelus and kafka

*Currently amending and updating chapters 1-41 (Current progress: 36/41)* In 2027 the fantasy VRMMORPG Caelus Online was released, becoming the most popular game at the time. However, 3 months after launch Players started to assimilate their in-game characters skills and attributes, turning society upside down becoming known as the Great Upheaval. Chester, a young man who was descended from the old English aristocracy, had lost his parents in his last year of university, had to take control of the Cranford family and their companies. After organizing his affairs, he was then hit by the Great Upheaval, sending his world into chaos again. Managing to weather the storm, Chester finally got his life back on track before he was murdered on a night out in London. Waking up, he found himself back in 2027 before all the chaos started. Having past experiences to guide him, he quickly went about preparing for the future. However, his first trial came much sooner than he had expected, finding out that due to his return to the past, his existence needed to be changed so his soul did not decay. In order to prevent such a tragic end, the gods decided to change his existence into that of a stunningly beautiful woman, flipping Chester's world upside down once again. Realizing that he, now she, had to go through this for the gods entertainment, she resolved herself to make the most of this second chance and try to reach for those gods who were now enjoying her antics. A/N Well, what to say, this is just a 'ting on the side, so enjoy with whiskey or rum'. Any comments and reviews are happily received, I look forward to your thoughts.

Kafka on the Shore, a tour de force of metaphysical reality, is powered by two remarkable characters: a teenage boy, Kafka Tamura, who runs away from home either to escape a gruesome oedipal prophecy or to search for his long-missing mother and sister; and an aging simpleton called Nakata, who never recovered from a wartime affliction and now is drawn toward Kafka for reasons that, like the most basic activities of daily life, he cannot fathom. Their odyssey, as mysterious to them as it is to us, is enriched throughout by vivid accomplices and mesmerizing events. Cats and people carry on conversations, a ghostlike pimp employs a Hegel-quoting prostitute, a forest harbors soldiers apparently unaged since World War II, and rainstorms of fish (and worse) fall from the sky. There is a brutal murder, with the identity of both victim and perpetrator a riddle—yet this, along with everything else, is eventually answered, just as the entwined destinies of Kafka and Nakata are gradually revealed, with one escaping his fate entirely and the other given a fresh start on his own.

The ingenuity and trust of a still naive divine being and the greed and envy of the god of time, Aevus, led into the banishment of caelus for all of eternity. Millions of universes coexisted in a false harmony until a obscure spatial fluctuation that would change the destiny of everything appeared in the vast space. Changes became inevitable, and for the first ‘time’ since the gold era, the shift of of the scale began to lean in a unfamiliar direction…

Captain Yi Zhen, callsign "Specter," leads Aegis Call, a handpicked squad of China's most brilliant and deadly operatives. They are the silent shield against threats the public never knows exist. But their new enemy is unlike any other. The Axiom Group doesn't deal in simple terrorism. They are a cabal of rogue intellectuals, tech moguls, and corrupted officials who believe China's future requires a controlled collapse. They orchestrate chaos with chilling precision: stock markets falter on manipulated algorithms, public utilities fail from a single line of code, and heroes are framed as traitors through fabricated evidence. As Aegis Call moves to counter them, Yi Zhen makes a horrifying discovery: The Axiom Group's reach extends far deeper than anyone feared. They have a mole within the highest levels of the government, turning their own command structure into a potential deathtrap. Now, Yi Zhen and his team are hunted as fugitives, their "Aegis Call" for backup going unanswered. To save the nation he swore to protect, Yi Zhen must go off the grid. With only his loyal squad—the explosive expert "Kestrel," the master infiltrator "Siren," the silent killer "Viper," and the tech genius "Oracle"—he must wage a desperate shadow war. He must outthink the genius "Architect" who leads The Axiom Group, expose the traitor whispering in the government's ear, and prove that even a shattered shield can still have one final, decisive Call.

Before marrying Silas, Joyce had only met him three times. A marriage of convenience, a secret agreement, for a term of three years. She's fresh off a heartbreak — the man she chased for years told her they "weren't a good match." Silas has his own baggage: rumor says he's still hung up on a white moonlight who happens to look just like Joyce. So that's all she is. A substitute. ** In the second year of their marriage, on Joyce's birthday, she drank too much and, in front of everyone, tugged on his tie, pinning him underneath her: "You look... a lot like my husband." The Thorne family's second master, known for being rational and unfeeling, was flustered by her that night. He leaned in close to her ear and coaxed in a low voice, "Be good." The next day Joyce woke up to find her lips were swollen. This… Who did this! When she went to question him, she discovered Silas's lip was bitten. He stared at her and said slowly, "You crossed the line first." ** The scandal leaked. At a party, her ex-boyfriend stepped in: "She's mine. Who dares talk?" Then Silas walked in. The room went silent. "Yours? Since when?" "Joyce, tell me. Whose are you?" So much for the secret marriage. So much for being a substitute. This was supposed to be fake… wasn't it?

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. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." 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.
