[April '20] This story follows the path Jun takes after having his village destroyed by gods, and having one of them use him as a vessel. Surely he can't be the only being on the planet with this newfound power. He must venture now to save hidden celestial beings from an entrapment, and fix what went wrong. This story is in the present-tense. These things are meant to be happening to you in the moment - all of you - even though it’s based some time ago. There is a blend of the English and American language. Any “misspellings” of the grammatical differences are intentional, and my own preference. As long as you know what I mean, this story hasn’t been lost to the ages. This writing was originally meant to be a game. One that you can play. So a lot of what is here relies heavily on visuals, which is a bit of a problem. I hope your imagination is flexible. I have sprinkled this pseudo-gameplay with hints of its future, and references of our World. It would be interesting to see what you can find! Many species are humanoid. They are more simply described as “people”. You get the general idea.

A swordsman should have an edge. I would rather break than yield, break rather than bend, be unyielding rather than forgiving, fearless, no matter any obstacles or resistance, there is no need to hesitate or worry. Believe in the sword in your hand, just rely on the sword in your hand, go forward bravely through the thorns, reach the other side of the sword path, and step onto the altar! I would like to dedicate this book to you and my favorite swords and the kendo that I love most! Here, you will see all kinds of swords, you will see all kinds of strange and all-encompassing sword techniques, and there will also be competitions between different types of geniuses, reaching the pinnacle of swordsmanship and competing for the altar!
There are few who can become as righteous as those who have experienced what is truly evil. Likewise, there are few who can become as great as those who have seen what weakness truly costs. Farron is a true nihilist who believes that nothing has value, not even his own life. So, when a fire erupts, he is the first to throw it away and refuses to activate the fire suppression system, condemning himself and a dozen others to death. However, he is transmigrated to the world of Koln by an entity named Life. As if to mock him, it bestows upon him the gift of immortality and expects him to participate in the Lord's Contest. But soon after arriving, he falls in love with Elise and refuses to participate. Their love is a beautiful love that is only said to appear in fiction, but in Koln, fantasy can be made real. They were each outcasts in their past lives and are one another's first loves. They are individually flawed, but to one another, they are perfect. However, Lord's Contests are not easily thrown off. As if in response, Life designs the first event such that killing the most intelligent lifeform in the area will increase the rewards of the lords participating, and because the location is the forest near the couple's home, Elise becomes the target of many other lords. In a pitiful show of weakness, Farron fails to lead the others away and is forced to watch as the scions of The Great Leviathan kill the person he built his new life around and who built her life around him. Blaming his failure, The Great Leviathan, and Life, he tacitly vowed that he would destroy Babylon, ruled by The Great Leviathan, and he would remake himself into whatever he had to in order to do it. He would destroy himself to get at Babylon and kill Life. With time, simultaneously Apollonian and Dionysian forces would come to exist within him, each being, respectively, a cold, calculating, methodical expression of vengeance and an ecstatic, burning, emotional expression. The metaphorical Apollo, the Greek god of the sun, truth, light, and logic would take hold of his mind and dictate his path. The metaphorical Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, emotion, ecstasy, and madness would take hold of his body and dictate his actions. The Apollo within him would plan his route while the Dionysus within him would execute it. - Plan to update once per day. - The cover is of Mot.

Buckle up, because with each saga, the setting, time period, and even the very fabric of reality might shift. You might encounter stoic guardians wielding ancient blades in one story, and cunning rogues with futuristic gadgets in the next. Elves, humans, orcs – the possibilities are endless! One constant remains – a mysterious force threatens the delicate balance of the Astral Plane. Each saga introduces a brand new cast of unlikely heroes, united by destiny and bound by a shared purpose – to confront this ever-evolving danger. They'll face trials that test their courage, wit, and resolve, all while unraveling the secrets of the Astral Plane and the true nature of the threat they face. Give some feedback.

Fifty years ago, in 1987, scientists from several different countries and backgrounds came together to develop a drug known as [REDACTED]. This drug could only be used on humans between the ages of one to three years old. The effect of the drug is different per human, but the general effect is that those who are treated with it will gain inhuman abilities, each of which differentiate by the person. Because of the age requirement, governments around the world payed billions to create child breeding camps, in which volunteers would become pregnant and then have their babies taken upon birth, never to be seen again. The mothers were payed good money and went back to their daily lives. Eventually, ethics committees came to the agreement that this was less than ethical, ruling all child breeding camps illegal. However, this was not near enough to stop the greed of the governments, who instead began to pay mothers at hospitals to give their babies over. While slower, the amount of super-powered individuals significantly increased. Now, fifty years later, almost every major country in the world has a special military division dedicated to children born with powers. Members of the military are even old enough to have kids, which is heavily encouraged by the government. That's exactly where my problems began.
