xxxvii preventing advantage

That year, The first time Jiang Xu saw Zhou Qingyue, he instantly fell for this girl with twin ponytails who had the sweetest smile. For her sake, Jiang Xu did a lot. He knew she liked bubble tea, so he saved his breakfast money to buy it for her. She loved small trinkets, so he tricked his parents into giving him extra money under the pretext of buying textbooks. Alternatively, he used the money he saved up during New Year. Whenever Zhou Qingyue was on cleaning duty, he would help her clean up. If she struggled with homework, Jiang Xu would stay up late, devising the best study methods for her. She wanted the latest phone.

After a while, he had made more than two thousand yuan and bought her a new phone with it. All he got in return was a lukewarm thank you.

"In 1851, the world was a machine. I’m just here to debug it." Arthur Pendelton was a 21st-century systems architect and UI specialist who lived by the logic of clean code and efficient interfaces. When a freak accident during a watch repair sends his soul back to 1851 London, he wakes up in the body of Arthur Vance—a man who has just been poisoned, whose workshop is facing a hostile takeover, and whose family is one week away from the workhouse. Victorian London is a city of coal smoke, ruthless industrialists, and primitive technology. To the aristocrats, Arthur is a failing tradesman. To his creditors, he is an easy target. They are all wrong. Viewing the Industrial Revolution through the lens of systems architecture, Arthur begins to "patch" the flaws of the 19th century. From optimizing the "user friction" of a precision lathe to revolutionizing the visual hierarchy of luxury horology, he isn't just making watches—he’s building a monopoly. With his sister Charlotte managing the "backend" and a loyal foreman handling the "hardware," Arthur sets his sights on the Great Exhibition at the Crystal Palace. He doesn't need magic to win. He has the ultimate advantage: he’s already seen the finished build of the world they’re trying to create. The goal? Total system dominance. ••••• DISCLAIMER Work of Fiction: This novel is a work of fiction.

I woke up one morning totally clueless about what had happened the night before. My head was throbbing, and where I was lying didn’t feel like my own bed. I opened my eyes, which were heavy to lift, and to my unexpected surprise— BAM! I wasn’t where I thought I was. Better yet, I wasn’t where I was supposed to be—my own place. I was in a different world, one that felt like a dream. Only, when I tried to slap and pinch myself, hoping I would wake up from this so-called dream… Nothing happened. I was still in the same place I had been a second ago. I thought I had finally lost it, only to find out that things couldn’t be worse than they were at that very instant. That’s when I realized I wasn’t just in a different place. This place wasn’t just another town. It was another world. A world that, as I kept exploring while trying to find my way back home, I noticed was the very world I used to escape to after long, hard days at work. This world isn’t just any timeline that suffered from The Butterfly Effect. This is the world of my favorite game. And the worst part? I’m no longer just a gamer on the other side of the screen. In a world where magic is like the air we breathe every day, I’m caught in a twisted era where a war against all species rages on. Now I have a new mission and new goal. I must survive this war. At first, things would have been easier because my avatar was the main character of the game—but not anymore. I’m not the main character. I’m not the one destined to save the world. I’m actually the opposite of the main character. This new avatar I’ve been thrown into isn’t even part of the main character’s group. This character is simply a non-PC. Meaning I’m either meant to guide the hero until he reaches a certain level, or I’m just one of the characters who die during the breakout and the beginning of the war. In other words, I’m just a mob. A nobody. You know what? Fine. I’ll be the side background character who’s doomed from the start. But since I’m not the main character, it means I’m not the calamity magnate—and now that I think about it, that’s actually a really good thing. That guy never rests. He’s always either fighting or running off on another quest. Fuck that. I want to rest. But I’m not saying I’ll sit on the sidelines and watch him grow. Screw that—I’m going to outshine him. I’m going to outsmart him. I may not be important to anyone else, but I know this game and this world inside out, like the back of my hand. And now I’m going to use that advantage. I’m going to rise. I’m going to rank up. But I hope that in doing so, I don’t cause my own Butterfly Effect. Because I’d hate to be the hero once again— A hero who, in the end, is fated to die.
