One Last System

Scorned by the world he was born in, Arthur had no other choice but to learn how to deal with it. Yet, just as his hard work and dedication were about to pay off, the hate towards his origins brought him to his death. But that wasn't his fate. His future wasn't supposed to end with his head cracking against the edge of the stairs. His bloodline could not die as that would be against the wish of the universe itself. Thrown to another world, he found himself in a situation where the skills and craft he honed would be no longer of use. His patience, his creativity, his logical thinking were no longer in demand in a world where strength reigned supreme. Or was it? "My system is overpowered. I'm not shameless enough to deny it." "Scores of women and slaves all around? Those are the wishes of a naive kid, not mine." "Lower the price of those apples by a quarter and we will have a deal!" "Dear, stop, I cannot hold any longer!" Jump in and follow Arthur's adventures as he proves that even the illogical world of sword and cultivation has its own rules. Laws, that one can learn, laws, that Arthur sets off to use to his own advantage! **** This novel will have some comedic elements, but it won't be the core of the story. I also won't hold back any punches when it comes to dark humor, heavy elements or morally ambiguous aspects. If you are looking for a fckboy/edgelord/cliche, then his novel is not for you.

"Wha...?!" Mia couldn't stop a small scream of surprise.

Someone managed to sneak up on her. That alone Mia would be willing to accept, clearly aware of her own lack of expertise in the areas of tailing, hiding, or scanning the surroundings. 

But that someone... not only gave up on the advantage of a possible surprise attack... but he even managed to stop Mia's punch without any noticeable effort!

'Danger!'  Mia's senses screamed out as she leaped to the back. 

'I know I didn't use all my strength for that attack, but still!' Mia's thoughts turned chaotic while she jumped to the back. 'I practiced that punch for so long, and it doesn't look like he was expecting it!'

Mia's legs touched the ground again, allowing her to stabilize her position. 

And as if her mind followed the state of her body, Mia's thoughts calmed down in an instant. 

'Retreat,' she thought, the look behind her eyes darkening. 'I need to retreat!'
