Please note: The first two books will be moving to Kindle Unlimited (KU) in late August 2022. As a result, their chapters will need to be removed from Royal Road at that time. The third book is ongoing, and will continue to be published here until it is complete, at which point it will also move to KU.
His name is Eight. Not really, but that's what the System decided after a slip of the tongue. One moment, he was stepping out the office door on the way home, and the next waking up on a hillside below a town wall. Oh, and the gate guard drove him off, because he thought Eight was a monster.
Life's tough when you're trapped in an eight-year old body on another world.
