"Aqua Chrysalis houses the most bizarre tenants who call each other by their animal code names. In this jungle of a building.I hate humans. One moment they say they like something. Then, the next moment they say they hate it. One moment they get along. The next moment they fight. They're hopeless, hypocritical beings who are proud and weak. They continue to hurt people. To destroy what they have in their hands. In an endless cycle. That's why I decided not to make any friends. My name is Butterfly. Well actually, my name is really Cho. My name means 'Butterfly', so people started calling me that. Since when? I don't remember. I think the name suits me. Butterflies silently flutter about from flower to flower, watching the world unfold as time moves forward. And keeping distance from interfering in the business of others. That is the kind of person I am."

"Someone would understand your grievances, your sorrows? Hah! Nobody will lend their ears to an individual wail of pain, not even the mighty upholders of justice, the Tianzun Imperial Court! Dream on!" A broken soul, mangled beyond belief, stranded within a world of pain and suffering. "That was a thousand-some amount of human lives! A city of them! Ushering them towards the Gates of Yama, do you have no shame or guilt!? And you call yourself a savior of life!?" Another entity, forged with apathy, incapable of resonating with other beings, drifting in a world filled with facade and corruption. "What siblings, what family, what Pavilion of Swords, what Divine Palace? Your very soul has brought forth destruction to the Immortal Realm, a calamity! A walking disaster has no place within the Immortal Realm!" One sole spirit, cursed with destruction. The Earth, the Heavens, and even one's own self perishes before their sword. When the Butterfly of Chaos flaps its luminous wings, who in the world is capable of resisting its allure? "Ronel, my fragile, beautiful creature. Must you force your destruction once more?" //Cover Image is courtesy of Sleepwrite!

“The machines conquered the world. What they can’t conquer is the dream that makes us human.” In the distant future of the multiverse, where AI rules the Earth, humans are slaves. The machines are logical, ruthless, and immortal — yet they are haunted by their lack of true consciousness. A group of human rebels devises a daring plan to exploit that weakness by convincing the machines that they can gain consciousness by reliving the emotionally charged combat experience of real WW2 fighter pilots. A sophisticated illusion that gives the rebels vital time to delay a machine offensive to destroy humanity. Later, the war becomes not just a physical but a spiritual conflict between good and evil, and the same team of rebels returns to a future alternative world, almost identical to the original. It is here that their leader, David, must identify and kill the Satanic personification of evil who lives in this world, disguised as an ordinary man. Guided by the mysterious Lingzhe—beings who understand that mind, not logic, birthed the universe—they must battle not only Satan but also the AI machines who have become his agents. In this evolutionary war between man and machine, good and evil, there can only be one winner. ALSO SEE THE PREFACE AND THE PROLOGUE *** Copyright. A. McCaffrey.
