The Battle at the Border: A Godslayer's Pen

The famous novelist Lu Ming is renowned for the vast fantasy worlds he creates and his compelling villains. But as he works on the final volume of his series, something unbelievable happens: the fictional characters he wrote begin breaking free of the pages and appearing in the real world around him. At first, they are minor characters, exploring this strange “new world” in confusion and curiosity. But soon, his most successful creation arrives: Kairos, a brilliant, powerful, and ambitious archvillain. Kairos quickly understands his situation. Not only does he refuse to obey the tragic fate written for him, but he also directs his fury at the humiliation of his very existence toward his “creator,” Lu Ming. Thus begins a hunt that crosses the boundary between reality and fantasy. Lu Ming must join forces with the heroes he created and draw on his deep understanding of the world and its rules to fight Kairos, who is determined to slay a god and claim the Dao, in a desperate battle through the familiar streets of a modern city.
