In Star Rail: Life Simulator, breaking Ms. Herta's heart.

Kaelmm
Su Xiaobai, who suffers from a terminal illness, is helpless and waiting to die in a cold rental house. But what he waited for was a life simulation system. Only by completing the simulation again and again can he rely on the system to survive. [You came to the Azure Star in the Star Iron World, became an abandoned baby, and were adopted by the Black Tower family.] [You are a natural singer, and Heita has become your nominal sister.] [But the disaster outside the border puts the Black Tower in imminent danger. You decide to save your sister.] On your eighteenth birthday, you climbed a tall building, resonated with the same harmony, burned yourself, and sang your last song. [The flames of destruction engulfed you, leaving behind only a burnt diary with the words "She is so beautiful"] [The genius who never cries broke down in tears. To revive you, she solved the solitary wave algorithm problem. To wait for you, she achieved rejuvenation, her appearance frozen in time at her most beautiful...] Second simulation: [You become Fu Xuan's senior apprentice, and young Fu Xuan is very dependent on you.] [Until the war with the Fengrao people broke out, you tried your best to convince your master and Fu Xuan to retreat together, and personally presided over the prayer for the hunting patrol...] [The hunting arrow came crashing down on you like a meteor. You died under that arrow that could destroy everything, but you also saved her and her master.] After several simulations, you recovered your health. You thought you were just a passer-by in their lives, and the system pulled you, healthy and complete, into the Star Iron World. then... ---- [This is only a translation]

INFINITE COMPREHENSION: THE RAI ASCENDANCY

Zayn ul-Abidin Rai was nobody special. A twenty-two-year-old IT graduate from Lahore, sweating through his cousin's wedding in Kot Addu, dodging marriage questions and stealing cigarettes behind the mango orchard. Then the light came. Not lightning. Just severance—one moment adjusting turbans, the next standing in a white room with nineteen strangers from worlds called Earth, Mars, Avalon, Eden Prime. [WELCOME, SELECTED ZAYN UL-ABIDIN RAI. THE NEXUS AWAITS.] The Nexus is survival entertainment for gods. Abductees thrown into horror films and apocalyptic scenarios—Resident Evil, Alien, The Matrix. Survive, earn points, buy power. Die, and become a statistic. Veterans include cultivators who shatter mountains, mages who speak dead languages, cyborgs with nuclear hearts. They look at Zayn—skinny, brown, claiming to be a "farmer's son"—and see dead weight. They're half right. Zayn is a farmer's son. His bones carry Mughal soldiers and partition refugees. What he hides—what only his System interface confirms—is his Talent: Infinite Comprehension. Absolute understanding of all phenomena. Instant mastery. Evolution beyond theoretical limits. Completely undetectable. He learns anything perfectly. A martial art demonstrated once becomes muscle memory. A spell formula glanced at becomes intuitive. A virus touched becomes data, then cure, then weapon. He improves what he learns—pushes skills past designed limits into something their creators never imagined. The catch? The talent hides itself. To observers, Zayn simply learns fast, gets lucky, has good instincts. Uniqueness is a death sentence in the Nexus. Administrators harvest anomalies. Veterans eliminate threats. The Selectors—cosmic children running this multiversal slaughterhouse—collect rare specimens. So Zayn becomes an actor. The cautious teammate. Tech-savvy support. Lucky survivor. Behind the mask, he devours. Comprehends. Evolves. While others bleed through scenarios, he studies the architecture of their suffering and builds a ladder out. He comprehends the T-virus—becomes immune to all disease. The Predator's cloaking—develops perfect stealth. The Force, magic, cultivation, nanotechnology, divine authority, time itself—weaves them into something hidden behind "I read about it once." He builds the Periphery: misfits from edges of their worlds, bound by knowing the center kills. He builds an economy selling "training guides"—his comprehended knowledge, diluted to seem learnable. He builds enemies: the Wang family young master who sees a rival, the Machine God cult detecting his System's signature, the Selectors noticing suspiciously dropping casualty rates. Through it all, Zayn dreams in Punjabi. Prays unseen. Carries his mother's biryani recipe uneaten—cooking it would mean accepting he's never going home. He is alone inter-narratively—a character who knows he's in a story, hiding from the author. His comprehension extends to tropes, plot armor, the reader's eye. He uses even that. Two thousand chapters. Twenty arcs. The Periphery becomes an army, then a nation, then a multiversal empire. Zayn its phantom emperor—ruling through puppets, always appearing as just another survivor, just another lucky fool. He kills gods by comprehending their divinity, then rewriting it. Breaks systems by understanding their code. Faces alternate versions of himself—chaos, destruction, order—and absorbs them into unity containing all possibilities. He becomes The Arbiter. The Root. The Gardener. The First Comprehender. And returns. Kot Addu. The wedding. Two seconds after he left. His mother's hand still raised. Zayn, who has commanded armies across ten thousand realities, who has rewritten physics when it inconvenienced him, smiles and says: "The turban's fine, Ami. Let me help with the guests." He has comprehended the final secret: power means nothing without context. Infinity is loneliness without sharing. The greatest comprehension is choosing to limit yourself—to be small, human, home
