Hello, author here. This will be the only time I appear on something that isn't the author's thoughts or the comment section.
I've decided to approach you all this way since I have a few things to comment on before we begin.
1: This novel isn't for anyone underage, as I will write explicit, brutal scenes, and when the time comes, explicit sexual acts. Even though it's not my idea to make this novel gore or smut. So, to aid those who don't wish to read such scenes:
The chapter name will finish with*
*In the chapter, the sentence(s) marked like this sentence will have one or both of said content in it, and they'll finish the same way.*
If the chapter has plenty of said content, then i'll mark the chapter with **, I'll try to make those chapters skippable, but i'ts not a promise.
(I leave to you all the decision to remove it, or keep it in place).
2: There will be no harem. Only 1 FL, and not a weak one, but it's a slow cooked romance.
3: People in this world can get to live long lives. So expect long jumps in time.
4: At first, there will be no fantasy races, such as elves and whatnot. My initial intention was to only have humans, but with how I cooked things, perhaps in the future, if you all wish to, things could change. There will be fantasy monsters for sure.
5: This novel has the tag Slice of life, so expect chapters about the daily life of characters after or before adventures, but not everything will be SoL, and action will take more of the main stage the further in the story we get. The reason for this is my next point.
6: I will try to keep my MC free of plot armor, as just like you, I also despise magical and unreasonable ways to get rid of situations. Yet, the easiest way to achieve that, it's to actually make the MC grow together with the danger he faces. This doesn't mean that the MC will have a smooth ride in life, either.
7: Updates will be 2Ch/day. I normally type 3 chapters a day, but I want to stock up 15 days' worth of uploads (30chapters) for things like feeling stuck or something. If someday I manage to have the stock of chapters full, I will increase the release to 3Ch/day. Wish me luck.
8: I'll try to make Alex be self sufficient in his growth, but, he will get some boons here and there as to give him an edge, he is the MC after all, nothing overpowered tho.
9: Even though there is no system tag, there is a status window in my novel, but this will serve no other purpose than for making information about the characters easy to follow. I'll make it so it shows only what the character wishes to see, as to not occupy all the screen.
The last thing before we finish.
I'll tell you beforehand that I used, and will use the help of IA for names, descriptions, and fantasy beast races, since I suck at those. Also, I will use Grammarly for grammatical errors.
After that, everything else comes from my mind, including the MC's names and some more names and designs in the novel (I'll tell whose those are in the author's thoughts when I introduce them).
The last thing before I finally shut my mouth is: If you see me overuse a particular word, or have any suggestion or tip that would help me improve the story, don't shy away from sharing them, since English is not my main language, so I'm always eager to learn and improve!.
That's it, I wish you all a happy reading.
