The troubled life of the biggest nerd on campus seems to be romanticized on media. Your life sucks, but the nuances of everyday life are entertaining at least. For a while, you fill in the stereotype, until eventually, karma kicks in, you conquer the school bully, and you get the girl. Sounds great, right? Except, that was my life in reverse. I routinely get pummeled on at school, I lost my girlfriend to the school jock, and to make matters worse, I get obliterated in an alley by a crazy chick's titan monster guard.
Sounds insane, but it's true.
Death is inevitable, but it is only temporary. By the time I wake up again, I am in another world that operates like an RPG. The system refers to me as a hero, and I was chosen by the dungeon core to save the fallen nation of Senterra from slavery, oppression, monsters, and the other four races in Thalian. Fae, dragons, Orcs, and goblins—for Senterrian humans, survival is a near impossible task. And when the dungeon core is at a critical state and in need of repair, saving the race on the bottom of the food chain becomes even harder.
All my life I've taught myself to fight with my own two hands. This time, I'll need to progress with more than just brute strength. I'll build my stats, level up, and fight the monsters in this foreign land to sharpen my cyber sense gear. Luckily for me, I have a strong yet unpredictably extreme party member to show me the ropes.
Egh, did I say lucky?
What to expect: a semi dark/semi light-hearted litRPG with doses of comedy, unique and realistic characters, character development, mechanics that are different from the norm, and plot and progression. While there are sci-fi elements in the story, they are tame. Sci-fi tones are represented in cyber sense gear/magic with a few advanced tech in select regions of Thalian.
