Hi, my name's Max and I'm one of the Selected. What's the first thing that pops into your head when you read those words? A great hero, chosen from among all the billions of people on Earth? A lucky man who has ended up on an unknown world and gained superpowers? An explorer of new worlds who has discovered his destiny? Well, that's all true, but there is one but . . . Actually, if I'm honest, there are a whole load of buts. And there are rules. And the first rule of the Selected is: "Try not to die. It is expensive and impractical."

Hello again, it's me—Max the Selected. I'm here with my group of degen . . . collectors, "The Selected". By the way, we're already a Great Group. So, you can call me Lord Max now. Would you be scared to declare war on a Great Clan? Well, I'm not. I'll take on two at the same time without...

The empire is crumbling, cities are on fire, and against this backdrop of bloody events appears a hero who can quell the chaos. Mikhail continues along his path of evolution, where each new dominant is a step toward power, but also a step closer to the abyss of insanity. In this book, our hero's...

I hope that by now you've lost any illusions you had about the Selected being some kind of elite force of intelligent civilization, chosen to fight against Universal Evil. So far, the only evil I've seen is the buggy System and the lack of basic sanitary facilities while we're adventuring. Also, it would be a real stretch to describe my companions as "elite". As for all the problems that come with being Selected—well, we can handle them!

A new series set in the world of the Hunter's Code and the Order of Architects! Have you ever watched someone's pride go up in flames? I have. It happened on the day your children screamed for help, and the only one to come to their aid was the one you had humiliated and cast out. I saved...

Cages with prisoners that have been transformed into weapons. Illusions that hide the faces of monsters. Slave traders, who were already an object of contempt in Mikhail's past life. This is all just the prologue to a new struggle, where blood flows in rivers and death lurks around every corner...

Mikhail was once an archmage, but now he's just a young kid who has to start everything from scratch. The Academy, where he's viewed as a weakling, becomes the arena for a fierce battle for survival. But someone who once conquered dragons and destroyed empires has an advantage—cold intelligence and strength that nobody expects from a rookie.

Who's the bravest of them all? Cat lady Mirelle and her Celestial Clan? Yeah, go screw yourself, Mirelle, you and your whole clan! It's bad enough that I'm allergic to you, now you've gone and stayed behind in this world when you should be in the next one. Go on, scram! And take your stupid clan with you. No democracy here, just despotism, tyranny, and the coming of the lord. Which means me, if you hadn't worked it out yet . . . he-he.

Only the strongest survive in this world, and Mikhael has known that since his earliest childhood. Finding himself at a boarding school where brutality reigns, he is forced to fight for his place in the sun. Using his cunning, strength, and unusual abilities, he battles his way to the top, taking on both his peers and the adults that control the system. But can he hold on to power and remain true to himself when every day is a new test?

A hospital bed isn't somewhere Mikhail plans on spending much time. In a world where every day could be his last, weakness isn't an option. Once his body is restored and his mind is sharp as ever, a new path lies before him. This path leads not only to power, but also to more terrible secrets, conspirators, and monsters, for whom human life is nothing more than a resource. An army of enemies, voices whispering in the shadows, and anomalies that devour all living things—to fight against all that, you must be prepared to change yourself.

I am the Archmage Mikhael. In my life, I have seen many beautiful women and many senseless battles. At some point, I found that the battles outnumbered the beautiful women. This loss of balance prompted me to put an end to all wars. I conducted scientific experiments and even studied the DNA of mages. I was one step away from understanding what makes us go to war when I died....

Before, everything was different. I was reborn, I summoned my Drone Swarm, and I got back to my usual business—saving the Universe, obviously. Now, it's all changed. Instead of my usual full power, I'm taking little steps to get stronger. Instead of my all-conquering Swarm, I've got drones...
