An S-ranked adventurer's countryside retirement

Over the years, his incredible skill and tenacity earned him the title of an S-class adventurer, celebrated and respected across the land. But after a decade of relentless quests and battles, Tom yearns for peace. Memories of a serene countryside—its lush green forests, golden wheat fields, and a tranquil lake—call out to him. Determined to leave the chaos behind, he sets his sights on this idyllic haven to start a new chapter in life. Yet, even in retirement, the world has a way of pulling adventurers back into its fold. Can Tom truly find the quiet life he seeks, or will his past follow him to the countryside? author's note: I have used that name so redundantly on my reruns of Stardew Valley. -

The Eternal Sin
From the moment Wei Wushang took his first breath, misfortune clung to him like a dark shadow. The world deemed him a curse, a demon, a sinner. But to Wei Wushang, these words were meaningless, for he had always known who he was. Since the day he embraced solitude and learned to savor it, he has walked his own path, in his own way, in accordance with his own feelings. Though stumbling as he may, he has walked it regardless. Make no mistake, this is not a tale of heroism or redemption. This is the rise of an individual who will commit the most heinous of deeds in his relentless pursuit of eternal life. The world may be a cruel place, but he will be crueller still. -------------- Author's Note: •The main character is certainly not a moral person, but he isn't a total Machiavellian archetype either. The term 'total' is important here because our MC is very a selfish individual with no qualms for evil. He has plenty of emotions, there just placed in another direction. •As mentioned in the tags, there will be no harem. As for whether the MC will have a love interest, no, as it will conflict with the personality I have in mind for him. •The narration in the book can be a bit preachy, especially in the beginning. I'm sorry about that. •Chapter updates: No idea how often I'll release. Could be once a week, a day, or even a month. I've written three books before this one, and I've dropped all of them. I won't promise this time will be any different. If you're willing to take the risk and read, great. If not, that's perfectly fine too. -
