I woke up to a world where a zombie crisis had broken out; if nothing unexpected happened, I should have... become the world's strongest BOSS, the Zombie Dominator. But the unexpected did happen; an entity named the "Doomsday Game" descended with a group of survivors. A certain reborn survivor, using his foreknowledge, wanted to seize the SSS-rank talent, Devouring Evolution, from me, the Zombie Dominator. The plan was sound, it's just that he came a bit too early and ran into me, who had yet to become a zombie. Then, the reborn survivor was counter-killed by me, and that tiny step I was from becoming the Zombie Dominator was also kicked back for becoming a rule-breaker of the Doomsday Game. ... "As a zombie, I am the big BOSS. So if I don't become a zombie, why can't I also be the big BOSS?" Qi Suian said.

"She was the perfect target." The sound of lips meeting, of bodies moving together, made bile rise in my throat. "But Damien, how were you able to do it?" Jessica's voice was breathless with more than just pleasure. "You told me we could get her inheritance and the life insurance payout once the wolfsbane killed her, but I never thought you could actually poison her so thoroughly." "Small doses of wolfsbane extract mixed into her food and drinks over months. I even convinced her that the healer's treatments were making her worse, so she'd skip doses of the antidote. Celine is so foolish and trusting, it was easy to manipulate her." Damien chuckled, clearly enjoying recounting his deception. I felt an intense pain in my chest, yet I held onto the doorframe to prevent myself from collapsing. "Good thing Father also helped by paying off the healer," Jessica added. "Making her believe that only a mate bond could cure her at this stage, when really, consistent antidote treatments could have saved her life. But that would have been expensive, and why waste the resources on an adopted nobody?" "Exactly!" Damien agreed. I could no longer take it. My heart was choking, my wolf whimpering in agony, making it difficult to breathe. *** She was wounded, rejected, betrayed and killed by the people she had given her all to.

But would she truly be able to break the curse for him, or his doom Will Celine be able to get her revenge before six months or end up like her previous life?

For eleven years, Ishaan Reed wrote a novel no one read— a world of labyrinths, monsters, and gods who toy with fate. Then the sky split open… and his forgotten story became reality. The “protagonist” he once created, Kael Arathis, now leads the charge—brilliant, powerful, and shining like a hero. Beside him, Ishaan should have been nothing more than a background character. Until a line appeared before his eyes: [Sentence: Ishaan Reed died here.] [Rewrite? Y/N] Now, reality itself is his manuscript. Every death, every defeat, every ending can be rewritten. To the gods, he is just another pawn. To Kael, he is a fraud stealing victories. But to Ishaan, this is the one story he refuses to abandon. Titles will be earned. Rules will be broken. And the script written by the gods… will be shattered. Can the Script Breaker survive until the final chapter—or will even his rewrites be erased?
