Ideal City: a True Story About the End of the World

What is the real end of the world like? No one knows. I don't know either. But the old man in front of me told me: he knew. I don't know where he came from, but he said that he had indeed lived in the apocalypse all his life and wanted me to record his story. I didn't agree. He took out a black dagger from his waist. Looking at his fierce eyes, I had no choice but to agree. So, he told me about his life as a doomsday ruler whose life was about to come to an end. I will faithfully record everything I heard: his friendships, his loves, his friends, his enemies, and his legendary career. My story may be lengthy and convoluted, and there may be many sections that can be skipped. But never mind so much. Because the story is about to begin... PS: The cover of the book was chosen by the old man himself. He thought it was cool, just like when he first started his business. The only flaw is that his wife was not included in the painting.
