Global rule-based horror has descended. The first rule: Never look directly at any mirror.
Liu Ruyan glances at the bathroom mirror. Her reflection is grinning at her.
In her previous life, she survived for seven years before being betrayed by the “person” she trusted most and shoved into a horde of corpses.
Reborn on the day the apocalypse began, she binds herself to the [Rule Alterer], which lets her change one character in any rule.
While everyone else trembles under the rules, she rewrites them, turning “Never look directly” into “Don't look directly.” A deadly rule becomes a mere suggestion in an instant.
While others are hunted by the Listeners, she changes “30 decibels” to “300 decibels,” instantly blinding the monsters.
While others freeze into ice statues in the bitter cold, she changes “Do not touch metal” to “You must touch metal,” turning the tables on everyone.
In the apocalypse, everyone says Liu Ruyan is a walking rule.
Only she knows that the well-behaved little girl by her side is the greatest threat of all.
