    [Already added to wishlist][Added to bookshelf] Tired of feeling stifled and frustrated in classic fantasy novels? Come on, change things up! I recommend two masterpieces where the protagonist is a "rule-breaker," allowing you to experience the thrill of a max-level master slaughtering newbies. The protagonist here is at his peak from the start, his strength ridiculously powerful. The supernatural tries to scheme against him? He simply overturns the chessboard. The supernatural tries to explain the rules to him? He makes the supernatural rewrite them. Reading this book will only leave you with one problem: how can I learn from the protagonist to become as powerful (and arrogant) as him?
