A cybernetic monk travels the galaxy performing acts of penance for its murderous namesake. Its duty…its function, is to heal the damage caused by its sadistic progenitor. But during the dangerous journey, it discovers unsettling facts that force it to question its real purpose...and the true nature of its own existence.

Dodging death and disassembly, the monk uncovers a disturbing secret hidden by its religious masters. A secret that could threaten the fragile balance of power in the galaxy.

A secret they will kill to protect.

Anahita turned back as quickly as possible and decided not to look back. She tried running away with all her might. During this, multiple explosions took place behind her as Senrigan's bullets crashed with Anahita's water bombs. While running away, she had some flashbacks.
A FEW YEARS AGO
It was the time when Anahita lived like a normal college girl. No, 'normal' would be an overstatement. She was from an extremely poor family. No, she didn't even had a family. 
Her father had passed away a few months before her birth. When she turned 4, her mother abandoned her. In a science fair, she left her hanging in the middle of nowhere. 
During that fair, after she got stranded off by her mother, she was adopted by a drug addict shopkeeper. 
The shopkeeper's wife was a pure hearted woman. And that was the sole reason Anahita got accepted into that shopkeeper's house. However, this happiness didn't lasted forever. 
The drug addict shopkeeper started losing himself. He was at his wit's end. When people expected him to stop, he got even worse.
He started verbally abusing his wife and daughter. When Anahita turned 18, she earned a scholarship for a really expensive medical college. This was the time when her mother told her to not worry about her father's abuse and focus on her studies. She also told her that only true knowledge will be her best friend in this world. 
Soon, Anahita started going to the college. But, this was just the beginning of the breaking point of her life. It was a really expensive college and so, she expected the college swarming with rich kids. But, she never expected how they would behave towards her. 
She got constantly bullied by the delinquent ladies of the college. They pour milk all over her lunch, sometimes they dirtied the hallways and put all the blame onto Anahita. 
But, Anahita tolerated everything until the guy she love
Senrigan stopped when he saw the manhole cover straight above his head. He climbed the staircase and reached the cover. As he removed the cover and got out of the manhole, he thought to himself, 
"It will lead me behind Anahita!"

The world has gone through a drastic change. People are blessed with heaven's blessings and are born with abilities. In this vast world, there are different persons fighting within themselves for different reasons. 
Aoki Arata - Ability unknown. Said to be the strongest. Weaker than the boss. 
Arsenal - space manipulation. Serves the boss. 
The boss -??? 
The battle that shook the gods, begins now! 

This story moves through different time periods and the characters, story setting, and everything else changes from generation to generation. The first generation is just a prologue.

El still remembered that incident clearly from his memory. Elena came back from her favorite cafe. She was cheerful before she went to her favorite place, but everything changed when she returned.
Elena's face looked shocked, and she seemed to face something unbelievable before she came back. Elena fainted in front of El, who was about to greet his little sister.
Elena fainted without warning, and it made El worried sick about her. El and Marx brought Elena to the hospital, and the doctor couldn't find anything wrong with her.
The doctor said she was alright, but she still didn't wake up for two days. El and Marx didn't desire to go to school because Elena was more important than their education.
El and Marx could lose their education, but they couldn't lose their only little sister. Both of them stayed by Elena's side day and night.
They didn't inform their parents. El and Marx already knew that their parents didn't care about any of their children. El and Marx could only depend on each other if something happened.
El and Marx could only solve everything by themselves. They were the ones who protected Elena from kidnappers, and they were also the ones who sheltered their younger siblings.
El and Marx already knew since young that they couldn't have much hope from their indifferent parents. Their parents gave them money and a good life, but money couldn't replace family affection that they never got from their parents.
Their parents couldn't give them any affection, so they were only the ones who could offer their younger siblings the love that they never got.
Elena woke up from her coma after two days. She looked normal, but El and Marx found out that she couldn't remember what happened in March.
March was the month Elena got kidnapped. The doctor only said it was not abnormal for her to forget such an incident because it wasn't a good memory.
El and Marx also thought the same as the doctor at that time. Later, El found out that his theory was wrong. Elena couldn't suddenly get traumatized by the incident because she was okay when El and Marx saved her.
Elena's personality didn't change after the incident. If Elena really got traumatized, then her body would tremble in fear when El & Marx saved her.
But Elena was okay when El & Marx saved her, and she even looked cheerful when they picked her up after the incident. Nothing like trauma happened to her.
Elena even waved happily towards the little Luke who was with her. El started his investigation to find out the truth behind Elena's amnesia.
El finally found out the truth, and he started to hate his Father so much. Elena lost some of her memories because of his Father's derailment.
Elena couldn't accept the fact that her Father has another family besides her. Elena was mature early, and she already understood the concept of derailment.
Elena already watched anime that didn't match her age,  
while other children watched cartoons at their age. Anime is different from cartoons.  
Cartoons are for kids, while anime is for teenagers and adults. Some of the anime are safe for kids, for example, blue robot cats or anime with a hero theme.
Elena has already watched anime for teenagers since young, her favorite anime is a place drama anime, and A place drama anime is identical with a harem.
It is not abnormal for the male lead to have thousands of harem in his palace. Elena loves monogamy more than harem, but she still loved to watch it.
Elena loved reverse harem more because there were many handsome anime male characters in it. Elena already knew the harem concept, and she already understood the meaning of derailment.
When Elena returned from her favorite cafe, and it was the date, she accidentally met up with her Father's mistress. Elena couldn't accept the fact that their Father favored his mistress child over his legal children.
Elena got amnesia because of their Father, she indeed forgot some memories, and one of them was the kidnapping incident.
El used to believe in the doctor's words about Elena's amnesia, but everything changed when he found out that Elena was not afraid of the kidnapping scene.
El and Elena were watching a movie in the recreation room in El and Marx's residence. El and Marx already moved out from Marlen's main mansion.
Elena would come to visit them from time to time. Reo and Leo were too young to go out, so Elena came alone. Marx had something to do that day, and he couldn't spend time together with them.
El could hear Marx's dissatisfaction through the phone, but Marx couldn't do anything to cancel his appointment. El, Marx, and Elena love science fiction movies.
When they watched the newest science fiction movie that year, Elena accidentally watched the kidnapping incident. If someone really had trauma against kidnapping, then it would trigger her fear.
El didn't find anything wrong when he saw the scene, but he suddenly remembered that Elena had trauma against kidnapping.
El wanted to comfort Elena, but when he turned his gaze at him, he couldn't detect any fear from her expression. Elena indeed looked a little anxious, but it was not because of the kidnapping.
Elena was anxious because she was worried about the protagonist's condition. El accidentally found out that Elena had no trauma about a kidnapping scene.
El started to investigate the truth behind Elena's amnesia. Later, he found out about their Father's mistress. Elena got amnesia because of their Father, not because of the kidnapping incident.
Father's derailment was scarier than the kidnapping incident for Elena. Of course, El never asked Elena about their Father's derailment.
Elena also acted as usual when she met up with their parents as nothing happened. El only talked about it with Marx. Marx didn't show any interest in knowing this truth, and he only listened to his explanation without saying anything.
Marx acted like it was not his business at all.


Elena never knew the world that she lived in was a novel world. Elena is a villainess in the novel "Ceo's Moonlight," and Elena's character aims to help the male lead get along with the heroine. Elena didn't bully the female lead like any other villainess, but her existence as the male lead's wife made the female lead realized her foolishness and made her come back to the male lead.

Elena has been married to Luke Vander, the male lead, for three years, but Luke never acknowledged her as his legal wife at all and kept their marriage in the dark. Luke Vander ignored Elena's existence and left her alone in this marriage. Then Luke Vander got an accident and was in a coma. 

In the real novel, Luke would wake up after one year in a coma and divorced his legal wife and got married to Miona Jeremy, the female lead. But everything changed when Elena also got an accident and made her lost consciousness for three days. After Luke woke up, he loves Elena instead of the female lead. Will Elena accept Luke Vander back? Or Will she choose to leave him?

Science fiction (often abbreviated Sci-Fi or SF) is a genre of speculative fiction that has been called the "literature of ideas". It typically deals with imaginative and futuristic concepts such as advanced science and technology, time parallel universe, fictional space  extraterrestrial life. Science fiction often explores the potential consequences of scientific fiction

Science fiction, whose roots go back to anciemt times, is related to fantasy, horror, and superhero fiction, and includes many subgenres However its exact definition has long been disputed among authors, critics, and scholars.

Science fiction literature, film, television, and other media have become popular and influential over much of the world. Besides providing entertainment, science fiction can also criticize present-day society, and is often said to generate a "sense of wonder".

"I'll call the shots on whoever will be given the first prize. What are they going to do about that?"
Everyone in the manor nodded hearing what Wu Wenshan's said. As the No.1 painter in Jinling, Master Wu had the right to be proud.
They turned a blind eye to Zhao Yuanliang's behavior. After all, the Zhao family was one of the richest families in Jinling. Who would dare say no?
…
At 2:30 p.m., the gallery arranged Ye Chen and the parents who were there to enter the lounge. Apart from Li Yongmin, the rest of the parents were restless and nervous. Clearly, they were worried whether their children would stand out in the competition.
Only Ye Chen and Li Yongmin seemed relaxed.
From time to time, Qianqian would look in and asked nervously, "Big brother, will Sister Mengmeng win a certificate?"
What she said naturally attracted the attention of the rest. At that moment, countless gazes were on Ye Chen.
"Believe in your Sister Mengmeng. Not only will she win, she'll even win the first prize," Ye Chen nodded with a smile.
Although he had never really seen his daughter drawing, he believed in her.
The reason being she was Mad Southern Ye's daughter.
Although he was clueless in art, he knew that art required a person's sense of space, vision, and ability to capture art.
His daughter ate medicinal pills like candies, and she had improved tremendously in all aspects. It was just like how the little girl kicked the soccer ball and it bursted into pieces last time.
After eating so many medicinal pills, if she still could not win against a group of people her age, then Ye Chen would question his medicine refining skills.
Right after he said that, a middle-aged woman with heavy makeup could not help but sneered, "So you're saying your daughter would definitely win the first prize?"
"Ms. Shen Fang is right. Brother, don't be arrogant. Which children who are participating in this competition aren't outstanding in school?"
A man wearing a pair of gold-framed glasses added, "Take me, Yang Ye's son as an example. He studied art at the age of three, and for that, I even asked an art professor from Tiannan University to personally guide him."
"That's right. I'm saying my daughter would definitely win the first prize!"
"…"
At that moment, the entire lounge became tense. Everyone was boasting about their child or mocking Ye Chen for making such a boastful pledge.
Ye Chen smiled, he did not mind that. After all, children would compare their fathers while parents would compare their children. It was human nature.
"Everybody's child is good."
Li Yongmin smiled and took the initiative to help Ye Chen out, "I don't think my little fatty has the destiny nor the ability to win. I forced him to come today because I wanted him to see the world."
From Li Yongmin's perspective, even though Li Erguo had some talent in art, he did not look like he would become an artist at all. Even though Li Yongmin would scold and beat his son, he just wanted him to go with the flow in life.
Ding, ding, ding!
As they were talking, the bell rang.
"The competition is about to begin!"
Someone said that, and the entire lounge fell into silence. All of the parents could not help but look at the big screen before them. It was showing the competition venue.
It was a hall that took up about 200 square meters. The hall was filled with people, most of them were children from all over the country. There were about a hundred of them, and there were three judges sitting on the stage.
"That's my child, Xiaohai."
"Good luck, Xiaomu! Mommy believes in you!"
"…"
Many parents could not help but cheer when they saw their children on the screen.
Ye Chen smiled too.
He saw Mengmeng. The girl was standing behind Cang Shuxue with the little fatty Li Erguo. Compared to the other children who looked nervous, the two kids did not seem to care. They were even whispering to each other.
Li Yongmin could not help but laughed when he saw that, "You little brat, you're still in the mood to whisper to your friend at a time like this. I'll smack your butt hard when you get out!"
The seven-year-old boy from the Zhao family was surrounded by people as if he was a treasure. He held a phone in his hand and played the game on his phone with pride.
"Hello, children and teachers!"
A woman in qipao walked out with a microphone in her hand, "The theme of today's art competition is 'Science Fiction'. All of you are the new generation of the country. Your wisdom and imagination will determine the development of the world. As the saying goes, 'The more powerful the younger generation is, the more powerful China will become'.
Therefore, please create an art piece on the spot around the theme of 'Science Fiction'. There is a time limit of 30 minutes. During the duration of time, no talking is allowed. The drawing style is based on your imagination. There are no restrictions on the materials used for drawing. There are also tools for drawing that will be provided to you. The staff will distribute them to you later."
Following a round of applause, a few staff in uniform began distributing the drawing tools, while all the participating children sat down under the arrangement of the teacher.
Ding, ding, ding!
"Begin!"
A lady from the judging panel rang the bell.
The whole place fell silent, and all the children started working on their ideas. It looked like the college entrance exam.
Even Li Erguo, the little fatty, was rubbing his chin with a troubled expression as he pretended to meditate. He cursed the terrible judges. 
'Why did they come up with the theme 'Science Fiction' instead of making it something related to food?'
He wondered if Mengmeng had thought of an idea of what to draw.
He could not help but turn to look at Mengmeng, who was sitting in the back row. She had already picked up a crayon and started drawing, as if she had already thought about what to draw earlier.
"W-What…"
The little fatty's mouth was wide open.
The art teacher, Cang Shuxue, was secretly anxious, 'Mengmeng, this is a formal competition. There is only one chance. You should at least think carefully before drawing. Didn't I tell you that before?'
She thought that Mengmeng was worried that she would not have enough time, so she started drawing immediately.
Many people witnessed that. Everyone was shocked at first, but they snickered coldly to themselves. Even the three judges were no exception.
The parents who were waiting outside could not help but look at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled without saying anything.
At the same time in the manor on the mountain behind Jinling Gallery, several experts from the art industry were also watching the competition through the big screen.
When they saw that Mengmeng was the first to draw, many people shook their heads. 
"Calmness and composure are required in art. With such impetuousness, it's destined that you won't succeed in art!"
As the No.1 painter in Jinling, Wu Wenshan shut his eyes to rest, as if he did not care about anything.
After all, at his level, there were only a handful of people who could be his match in the art industry. How would he be interested in a competition among children?
If it was not for Zhao Yang from the Zhao family, he would not have come today.
At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Look, what is that girl drawing?"


An ordinary man, Ye Chen traveled to the cultivation world by accident and became a phenomenal immortal of that era. After 3,000 years in the cultivation world, he was betrayed and traveled back to earth through a spatial tear. 
Five years had passed in the mortal world, but when he came back with his abilities, he found out he now has a daughter!


362 Days Left
 
I paw at the edge of my cell trying to think a way out. 
They have me in the Fossil Room. It's got squares of colourful carpet tile and bean bags and racks of books to teach kids how hopeful our rational future was going to be (yeah right). The room is lined with drawers full of fossils of every species imaginable. There are nautiluses, centipedes a metre long, piranha-looking things, eggs sealed in rock forever. I heft a fossilised egg in my palm, tip back in a baseball pitcher stance, hiff the egg-rock hard at a tiny square window. It leaves a white chink the size of a coin. This glass is actually thick plastic. It isn't shattering. If I can't get out of here to save the world, this whole species is doomed. We won't even leave a record if the Mechs sweep up the evidence. Humans are too recent to have been fossilised much. The process of turning to stone takes longer than we've been around. We're a blip. If whoever made us decides we're a mistake, I suppose we can be erased from history.
Jeez, Eden. Enough with the emotions already, says one side of my brain. Think more positive, girl. 
Yeah right, counters the other. YOU try be positive with your guts torn open. 
My room is deep within the museum – the small square windows only show antique furniture and cases of old cotton looms and a taxidermied gorilla – but I can hear some of what's going on outside. 
There's a lot of yelling and threats. A lot of 'He's coming, he's coming, formation, shush.' Lower, sterner voices using old corny language against younger, more sprightly voices. 
'The dome' is what I hear over and over. Words like Dig and Dome and Shovel, Smash, conquer. The chink of tools on stony soil. The thunk of concrete ripped up. 
Is this dome larger than the Mahonyland dome? It's hard to tell. I can't see it from my prison. All I can do is pace and ponder, fiddling with fossils, and make deductions based on what little I know. 
The dome was planted on us suddenly, quickly. Almost instantaneously. Not airlifted by helicopters. Possibly dropped by those drones that've been drifting over the city. Okay. That's a clue. What's light enough to be carried by drones? What spreads easily through the air? 
Something, I dunno, something made of light and particles…. Lasers? Electricity? I didn't get a good glimpse at the thing but I think I saw wires, or at least thin metal filaments criss-crossed in a spiderweb-y grid. In each square of the spiderweb the air rippled and buzzed. I smelled the cooking feathers of a trapped pigeon jittering as it cooked in mid-air. 
Yeah, that's electricity alright. That's my first clue. 
There is a book in the shelves – a book aimed at kids, written by some long-dead boffin named Dr Michio Kaku. It's called Science Fiction Isn't Fiction. It looks at tech that once seemed futuristic and how to build it. It starts by examining the visions of Leonardo Da Vinci and how he would've seemed like an insane philosopher back in the 1500s but most of his inventions proved workable. One of the pages in the Kaku book makes me blink back tears. It shows these jolly red butler bots carrying piña coladas on trays to a couple of women lounging by a pool while their toddler frolics. Robots serving us. Obeying us blindly, not looking for sneaky ways to screw us. The older woman has Mumshine's crusty sunburned skin and dark spots. The little kid has the tipped-back, wobbly posture of my Hopey. The other female reclining by the pool – 
I skip to the end. Dr Kaku is supposed to have dumbed this stuff down for kids, but it begins hard. C'mon, Doc. Tell us where our fate's going.
The final third of the book has a single page about force fields. That's all I need.
A force field is a vector field F> where F> (x>) is the force that a particle would feel if it were at the point (x>). 
Jesus Christ. I spent most of high school science class conspiring with KT Stiles about how to give boys blow jobs. We held our exercise books up against our mouths and giggled and updated our spreadsheet about the hotness of the boys each week, their new haircuts and tattoos and shoes. Maybe I should've paid more attention to physics.
I manage to find a section in the text I can get my head around.
Chapter 89: How To Make Force Fields.
Faraday's greatest discovery was his force fields. If one places iron filings over a magnet, one finds that the iron filings create a spiderweb-like pattern that fills up all of space. These are Faraday's lines of force, which graphically describe how the force fields of electricity and magnetism permeate space. 
One day, Faraday was moving a child's magnet over a coil of wire and he noticed that he was able to generate an electric current in the wire, without ever touching it. This meant that a magnet's invisible field could push electrons in a wire across empty space, creating a current.
"A SPIDERWEB!" I chirp to a stuffed emperor penguin in the corner, "YES! Lines of force! Electrons, yo!". 
The stuffed penguin just looks at me.
Michael Faraday discovered that a spinning magnet creates a force field that pushes the electrons in a wire, causing them to move in an electrical current. This same principle is used to generate electricity. With a hydro electric dam, tumbling water causes a huge magnet in a turbine to spin, which then pushes the electrons in a wire, forming an electric current that is sent across high-voltage wires into our homes.
Magnets moving electrons causes electricity to flow; conversely, electromagnetism occurs when electricity flows. Cheers, guy. I'm getting this. 
Electromagnetism occurs best when a web of wires – think of a spiderweb draped over a bush – all conduct electricity. Enough power flowing through those wires will generate a magnetic force.  
If the spiderweb seems too complicated, think of the mesh lace food cover you're probably using to protect your picnic from wasps as you read this under an oak tree in a green park. 
Real force fields have electromagnetism occurring in the strands of the web, the book is telling me. Between the strands, plasma is lain in panes. The planes of force – like the tiles of glass – are plasma, which is ionised atoms: the same stuff lightning is made of. Because plasma is made of electrons torn off the atom, the atoms are electrically charged.
Cool! I'm getting this! 
The power input of electricity through an electromagnetic web heats argon gas; air becomes ionised. It can be moulded and shaped by adjusting the magnetic and electrical fields. The outer layer of electromagnetic web or "biodome" is a supercharged plasma window, heated to temperatures high enough to vaporize metals. The second layer is a curtain of high-energy laser beams operating at a frequency too fast to see. This curtain, containing thousands of crisscrossing laser beams, creates a lattice capable of superheating objects that passed through it, vaporising them. 
Behind the laser curtain: a lattice of carbon nanotubes made of individual carbon atoms many times stronger than steel. The screen is invisible, since each carbon nanotube is atomic in size. Fibre optic wires can also conduct sufficient electricity to ionise the panes of argon gas.
A lattice of clear plastic fibre optic power lines, I'll bet – that's why we can barely see 'em. Electricity is flowing through from some source somewhere, charging the argon gas til it ionises and becomes plasma floating the air. 
Windows of lightning that'll melt you with one touch. Holy shit. 
Cut the power supply, the whole biodome will stop working… if we can dig out and actually find the power supply. 
'Guaaaaaards?' I call through the porthole in my door. 'I've got something I wanna trade.'
Silverhead appears on the other side of the glass. 'And what would that be?'
'A way out.'

A tribe of brave teens. 
An army of vengeful parents. 
A dome filled with enemies.
And a future machine watching mankind destroy itself.

Freed from prison in 2041 following the deaths of her school friends during a cruel biodome experiment, Eden Shepherd is ready to return home to her parents and daughter and work out what went wrong in Moneyland. 
First problem, though: Eden’s dad has disappeared, leaving a trail of questions about his complicity in the rise of a heartless AI responsible for billions of humans uploading their consciousness to The Cloud and leaving their bodies behind to rot.  
Eden and her mom begin searching for Dr David Shepherd in the rubble that used to be the city centre – except it’s ground zero for a militia led by a man intent on killing Eden.
After an all-new dome imprisons Eden in an abandoned mall with a tribe of teens, Eden finds herself fighting against The Father’s Force, the Mechastructure, and her feelings for the tribe’s leader Otzi all at once. 
As secrets about Otzi emerge and the rebels turn on one another, Eden realises she’s about to lose her chance at payback – as well as her life.

I ... wanted science fiction to be more naturalistic. There had been a poverty of description in much of it. The technology depicted was so slick and clean that it was practically invisible. What would any given SF favorite look like if we could crank up the resolution? As it was then, much of it was like video games before the invention of fractal dirt. I wanted to see dirt in the corners.
In science fiction, we dream. In order to colonize in space, to rebuild our cities, which are so far out of whack, to tackle any number of problems, we must imagine the future, including the new technologies that are required.
It's not speculation, it's true! Mobile phones, laptops, tablets, the Internet, all were predicted and dreamed up in science fiction first. Science fiction writers speculate when they write. I don't just make random things up. I consider the world around me. I live in it. I experience it. I love it. I hate it. I worry about it. Then I imagine what's to come.

The power of science fiction, and what's positive about it, is that you're able to experience the worst-case scenario without actually having to live it.

Li Zheng did not hurry to leave school after he escaped from the demonic clutches of Discipline Mistress Sun.
He wanted to experiment a little further regarding relaxation. He wanted to at least experience all of the relaxation activities he could engage in within the school.
He started to brainstorm.
"What would I be doing if there was a sudden long holiday without any stress?" he thought.
"If it was up to me, I would probably read a few books that I did not have the time and patience to read before.
"Yes, reading, a mode of relaxation adopted by many.
"Even better, it can improve the score of my essays.
"Two birds with one stone.
"Perfect."
As a high school that boasted its quality of education, there was a library in Cherry Lake High School.
Even though the library was not large, it did hold most mainstream publications and popular novels.
Li Zheng did not dawdle. He seized the opportunity and returned to the main block, then followed the corridor eastward, directly toward the library.
The school library was a refurbished classroom. Half the room was occupied by shelves, while benches took up the other half. There were racks on the empty walls containing all the magazines and newspapers.
"Good, it's very quiet," he thought.
He looked toward the only other person in the library as he got out his student card.
It was a girl. She was reading a magazine that looked to be "Science Fiction World."
At this moment, the girl seemed to have caught a whiff of something. She slowly lowered her magazine a little and revealed a gaze that was not to be trifled with.
"Lin Yujing!" he thought.
"It's her again!"
"Hm…" Lin Yujing covered her face with the magazine in a hurry and pulled back her head.
Li Zheng was a little embarrassed.
He was not deliberately tailing her.
Li Zheng thought, "Isn't this too coincidental?
"Why is she around, no matter where I go?
"Why haven't I bumped into her like this in the past?"
Suddenly, Li Zheng stared at Lin Yujing.
"I have only cared about my studies in the past and did not engage in any other superfluous activities," Li Zheng thought.
"But today, all I want to do is relax.
"Also, I will always bump into Lin Yujing whenever I come to an ideal spot for relaxation.
"What does this mean?
"It means that I have stepped onto the right track.
"A person who's good with their studies should relax like that.
"In fact, it can be said that I am not as good as Lin Yujing in my studies because I do not prioritize rest and study overly hard.
"Lin Yujing must be feeling angry and frustrated because her study technique has been discovered.
"I am rather ashamed. It took too long for me to be enlightened."
Li Zheng rubbed his palms together as he walked toward the rack of magazines after he handed over his student card. He started to browse through the magazines.
[Relaxation activity detected: Reading.]
[Energy recovery rate: 1.6. Daily limit of 40 minutes.]
[The efficiency cannot be increased.]
Li Zheng forced a smile. Even though the rate of recovery was less than what he expected, it was still acceptable.
The next question was which magazine to read.
He deliberated, "Magazines like 'Popular Photography' and 'Traveler' cultivate one's tastes.
"Magazines like 'Bosom Friend' and 'Story China' not only cultivate one's tastes but also boost essay writing skills.
"Isn't it obvious?"
Just as he was about to pick out a copy of "Bosom Friend," Li Zheng saw the September issue of "Science Fiction World."
He involuntarily turned around to look at Lin Yujing.
She was holding the newest October issue of "Science Fiction World."
Li Zheng thought, "It looks like she reads every issue.
"Strange, very strange.
"Why would a girl like science fiction?
"Don't girls like sentimental teenage literature?"
Li Zheng had already noticed through various incidents that Lin Yujing never did anything casually. Everything she did was in preparation for her studies.
It was not an accident that she chose "Science Fiction World."
Li Zheng arrived at another epiphany.
He thought, "Not only do science fiction novels contain much science-related information, but they can also expand the imagination and widen ideas.
"Isn't this the most important thing when it comes to solving difficult questions?
"Furthermore, science fiction novels can also boost essay writing skills.
"What's more terrifying is that science fiction novels are not mere novels. They cover topics like math, physics, chemistry, history, geography, politics, and even philosophy, sociology, and psychology.
"This information can be used even after she enters a university or steps into society.
"Lin Yujing, you little intelligent imp!
"It's no wonder that the last big question on tests always pulls our scores apart."
Li Zheng pulled out the September issue of "Science Fiction World" without thinking and impatiently sat down in a seat close to the door. He flipped open the magazine and started to read.
Bam!
Lin Yujing suddenly slammed her magazine onto the table.
She glared at Li Zheng with a spiteful gaze. It was as though her last bit of territory had been polluted.
Li Zheng felt a little guilty.
He thought, "Both meditating at the pavilion and the choice of the magazine were study techniques that Lin Yujing might have spent a long time to discover.
"As for me, I spied these techniques and used them as my own. I do feel embarrassed.
"Yes, I can't just take advantage of Lin Yujing.
"I should compensate her with something of value."
Li Zheng put down his magazine in a hurry and took out his test paper from his backpack.
"I have a simpler way of solving the last question here," he said. Li Zheng grabbed his test paper. He felt a little heartache at revealing his discovery but decisively unfolded the paper. "Come, let me teach you. Just this once."
"Ah!" Lin Yujing grabbed her head in despair. She leaped up and grabbed her bag, then bolted out the door.
Li Zheng sighed a moment later.
"It looks like she still feels that her losses are greater and does not want to accept this compensation," he thought.
"She could, at the very least, come and take a look at my answer before she decides whether or not to accept it.
"It can't be helped. Women are very emotional.
"And being emotional is not good for studying."
Li Zheng could not help but look toward the October issue of "Science Fiction World" that Lin Yujing left behind.
"Look, look," he thought.
"Another loss for her?"
Li Zheng stood up in a hurry. He jogged over to Lin Yujing's spot and swiped the magazine.
The old librarian at the door of the library suddenly asked, "Kid, do you two know each other?"
"We're from the same class." Li Zheng returned to his seat with the two magazines in hand.
"She did not take her student card." The old man put on his glasses and read the card Lin Yujing left behind in detail, "Class 2-4, Lin Yujing… Is Class 2-4 still led by Chunmei?"
"Yes, Mrs. Hu Chunmei," Li Zheng said as he nodded.
"She's still taking classes?" The old man probed, "Is she done with her surgery?"
"Surgery?"
"Oh… It's nothing…" The old man waved his hand in a hurry, "Please take her student card along with you when you leave."
"No, thank you. Let her come collect it herself." Li Zheng shook his head as he said, "It's not like it would be lost if the card was placed here."
"Hehe." The old man took off his glasses and smiled as he waved the student card. "Kid, these years are the only few where you can be together with so many girls your age every day. I can't return to those years even if I wanted to. Don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
Li Zheng froze. He looked toward the old man cautiously.
The old man had a thin face and a lush head of silver hair. He looked like an old academic.
Li Zheng thought to himself, "He sounds self-righteous.
"But the words he spoke and the thoughts he has...
"Are too evil.
"I should not start chatting with a person like that, in case he corrupts my heart and brain."
Li Zheng did not comment and continued to read his book.
"Hey, have a chat with me. I sit here all day long, and there are not many other people." The old man picked up Li Zheng's student card and only caught a clear glimpse after squinting and holding the card further away from his face. "Li Zheng… Hm, the name fits the person…"
Li Zheng did not speak.
The old man asked, as despicable as always, "Oh Li Zheng, aside from studying, what do you guys do on a normal day?"
Li Zheng did not speak.


[Have you become more learned today?]
[Accounting for the capacity of your brain, your study efficiency has been increased to 28 times that of normal.]
[The remaining amount of energy you have for studying today, 26 hours.]
[You will enter an exhausted state when your energy is depleted and be unable to obtain new information.]
[Please relax by using the functions within the system and restore your energy as soon as possible.]
With limited energy and the onset of fatigue, the Study Monster had no time to think too much.
Had the heavens not grant me this system, the unending sea of knowledge would seem like a long night.


"Old Shen, do you have the confidence?" Shen Xi offered her father a fist bump.
Shen Zhangqing bumped her fist and said, "You must trust your father, do you understand? Apart from being fat, your dad is fine, and his brain still functions normally!"
Shen Xi happily returned to her room to prepare her proposal.
Shen Zhangqing watched as his daughter hummed a tune and skipped joyfully into her room. Then, he embraced Yun Jinping with red-rimmed eyes. "Don't worry, dear. I won't let you and Xixi down."
Yun Jinping nodded and replied with a hoarse voice, "How much pain has our Xixi endured at the Su family?"
Shen Zhangqing comforted her, "She's grown up and can't remain a child forever. She has matured, and we should be happy about it."
Their daughter used to be a bit stubborn and feisty, yet innocent. She had become more reliable after living with the Su family.
"I don't want her to be so mature." Yun Jinping grieved.
Of course, she knew that it was a good thing that her daughter had matured.
Nonetheless, her daughter had to go through so much misery before attaining her maturity!
Halfway through her draft, Shen Xi's received a notification on QQ[1]. Her website's editor sent her a message and informed her that someone wanted to buy the rights to her novel. She was asked whether she was willing to sell it.
Every girl had a dream of becoming a princess. She would dream of her Prince Charming, who would visit her on his white steed and marry her.
Back when she was still a naïve little girl, she loved to daydream.
When she was in middle school, she would serialize novels on the web.
At first, she wrote about princes and princesses.
When her writing skills improved, she published a few novels about high school romances.
It sounded embarrassing. Until today, her wiki profile still stated that she was a well-known writer of highschool love stories.
Later, as print media gradually became obsolete, she got busier than usual.
The publication requirements were strict and she did not have the time to edit her stories every day. She was not in urgent need of the money either, so she changed her pseudonym and wrote romance stories on the web.
It was her first work after switching to writing web novels and a cross between the genres of political fiction, historical fiction and fantasy. The female lead, who survived a genocide, came back with a vengeance. The series was known as "The Favored Advisor of the Golden Age". 
Later, it got published and the rights to the novel were sold. It was adapted as a web series known as "The Smiling Nation". However, the story was heavily butchered and the show was widely regarded as a flop.
Much later, Shen Xi's legs and hands were crippled and her face got disfigured. After her dream of becoming a celebrity was smashed to smithereens, she began to delve into her own world. Words were the only things that could calm her troubled soul.
When her personality changed and became more inspired, she started writing science fiction. She published around 20 science fiction novels.
The ideas and scope surrounding science fiction novels were massive and not easy to adapt for the big screen. Hence, when she was still alive, her books became bestsellers and accumulated a large fanbase. The rights to her novels were expensive, but there were no film adaptations.
Throughout her writing career, her editor, publisher and fans only knew of her pseudonym. She kept her real identity a secret. 
This information was classified. Yet, after her death, all of her achievements were falsely claimed by Su Ruowan.
Su Ruowan appropriated her pseudonym and won the Hugo Award using Shen Xi's novels, thus becoming China's number one science-fiction novelist.
Her old pseudonym was brought up as well.
The media and fans went into a frenzy as they worshipped the talented Su Ruowan.
Eventually, "The Favored Advisor of the Golden Age" was adapted as a film and it was a tremendous success. Her other science fiction novels were not neglected either, as, one-by-one, films were made for each of them. They became blockbusters and were world-famous.
[1] QQ is a popular instant messaging app in China.


In her past life, Shen Xi always longed for love and validation from her parents, members of the wealthy Su family. Unfortunately, the attention that she yearned for was stolen by the family’s fake heiress – her elder sister, Su Ruowan. 
As a result of Su Ruowan’s evil plans, Shen Xi was crippled, disfigured and eventually died of leukemia. However, in a surprising turn of events, Shen Xi was reborn. Returned to the time when she was a seventeen-year-old teenager, she’ll set things right and get her revenge against the Su family.
