I think 'Atonement' by Ian McEwan is also among the best. It's a complex story about love, guilt, and the power of the written word. The prose is beautiful, and the way the story unfolds, with its multiple perspectives and the big reveal at the end, is truly masterful.

The irony also lies in the prediction of the future. Science fiction in the 21st century often predicts a utopian or dystopian future. However, as time passes, we see that some of the dystopian elements are starting to show up in real life in a rather ironic way. For instance, the over - reliance on technology and the resulting loss of privacy that was foreseen in many sci - fi works are now real - world concerns.

[Quick Wear: Lord God, don't tease me.]

As one of the four managers of the 3,000 Sectors, Tang Xingmi didn't expect that one day, Ming Qi, the villain Demon Lord in one of the planes in the Immortal Demon Realm, was about to destroy the entire plane. It was all the host's fault for courting death. If the world was destroyed, the order of the 3,000 Sectors would be disrupted, and the other worlds would also be affected or even collapse…Tang Xingmi found three other companions, but they were helpless. The three heartless comrades had asked her to seek help from the Lord, but she had no choice but to go now… The Sovereign didn't say much. He looked at her leisurely and frowned. Then, he entered that plane. Miraculously, the entire world had returned to three months ago. The three thousand worlds had stabilized, but the Sovereign hadn't returned. What was going on? The system's meatball who had caused trouble turned into a three or four-year-old child and slipped in front of Tang Xingmi in fear. He really couldn't get angry at this bun. Fortunately, he still knew how to kill that courting host. Otherwise, he would really be angered to death. "Supervisor Tang, the Divine Lord's soul has dispersed into the three thousand Sectors. For this incident…" "What? Then what should we do?" "That's simple too. The Sovereign said that you want to save him personally, collect his divine soul, and let him be reborn!" Tang Xingmi was in a difficult position. It was indeed her fault. She had to take the blame. "How do we save him?" "Bind to the system. Attack the villain and eliminate the Darkening Points. Your favorability will reach 100. Once you complete it, you will receive a wisp of the Lord God's soul." Dumbfounded.“What ???” Ding ~~~ The system binding to the villain boss has been successful! Damn it…
