Have You Redefined This World Again?

[A breezy, half-day read + another world + sudden twists and mind games + laid-back daily life + no System + you can read this with your brain switched on]

Qian Kun is a magical prodigy. Though still young, he is already a top-tier mage. But when dealing with problems, he prefers using his head rather than his fists.

After his junior fellow apprentice dies, Qian Kun is ordered to retrieve his belongings. But the dead man had enormous ambitions and was playing a grand game that could change the entire world. Even his death was one of his moves, and Qian Kun has become a key piece on the board, forced to deal with one difficult problem after another.

His enemies are terrifyingly powerful, but luckily, solving problems isn't about whose fists are strongest. There are more paths to victory than you'd think. Turning enemies into allies, using one foe to eliminate another, or slipping in through the back door: with a little planning, Qian Kun can neutralize his enemies' attacks and achieve his goals.

But driving off his enemies isn't the hard part. The hard part is pleasing himself. Fighting is a way to survive, not the purpose of survival.

In a world where the strong rule, the powerful decide how everyone should live, what counts as truth, and how they should face death.

Qian Kun realizes that in this world, it's important to "keep thinking and learn to speak." You can outwardly agree with nonsense, but you mustn't let it deceive you inside. You can choose not to waste your breath, but you must remember that you can still make your voice heard.
