Do not read if you despise monologues.

Unravel the mysteries of this new world alongside the main character, as well as truths about him and his family. What can you determine? This is an isekai written by me. Inspired by a wide variety of isekai stories.

Why did I decide to write this? First of all, I'm just an ordinary person. Before writing this, I had no experience in creative writing at all. I am also an isekai fanatic. I have read and/or watched a multitude of isekais, and some of them are bad. Like, really bad (see Conception and Master of Ragnarok)... I knew for a fact that I could write a better story than those. If those could get animes, why not try to write my own? I also wanted to create a world that the reader can explore. This concept is heavily inspired by Overlord, my favorite series of all time. Although the quality is nowhere near as good, I wanted to create an experience similar to that of reading Overlord for the first time and picking apart the world. I hope I am doing a decent job.

I want this to be my best novel, so I am shelving it as I work on other projects to improve my writing. If you want to read my first (cringe and unfinished) drafts, here they are.
