BOOK 1: The Two Fools

This is the tale of a worn-out soldier who had already helped saving the world.... more>>

BOOK 2: The Hearts of Steel

The Bleak Walker found himself in this new world where the threat of darkness is not present; however, forces of chaos gather, intending to break the tower that symbolize the unity of all.
This is the tale of the fallen. <<less

…that’s a maybe then.

Hermit’s Note: My take on the kingdom building genre, which often suffers from weak characters, low stakes and contrived challenges. Buildup will be slow, with Book 1 focused on business managment, Book 2 focused on a battle for succession and only Book 3 getting into the depths of kingdom building. There’s plenty of inventions before that point though, so if you’re here for the clever use of modern tech you’ll find quite a bit even early on.

"When life gives you lemons, you should be grateful that it is only lemons. It could have been AIDS." - Hilda Caligari... more>>

Just because life throws you away as worthless does not mean death has the same ideas. The chance to be reborn and live a second life is tempting, assuming you don't get stabbed to death or worse. For a former sociopath experiencing emotions might seem troubling, until the realisation sets in that they are now alone and stranded in a new world in a female body. Of course, alone discounts the distinctly demonic, succubus looking spirit stitched to their soul, who has an uncomfortable love of sharp objects, knives and stabbing things. All of the things.

Wesley was a young man with ambition. Growing up with no parents and nothing to his name, he vowed to succeed in life; gaining everything he’d ever wished for. Sadly, the world never worked the way you wanted it to. Just as Wesley’s business was taking off, he was gunned down in a restaurant he visited from time to time.

”F*ck, that hurt!” Wesley clutched his chest and exhaled heavily. ”Two lives in and you’re still pulling the same shit? You couldn’t pull me out in a more peaceful way?’’

The system operative scoffed at Wesley’s attitude. ”Listen, can you pick a position already? The other SO’s are watching some new rookie, and she’s going buck wild in one of our apocalypse settings. If I miss any of the good stuff, I’m upping the prices in your system shop. ”

‘’Bullshit.” Wesley laughed at the System Operators threat. ”Make me a transmigrator. Being reincarnated is the worst option out of all the options you have given me.’’

”Are you sure? You’ve got quite the mouth on you so I thought you would go for System Operator, and here I thought I’d gotten myself a new drinking buddy.” The SO seemed genuinely bummed by Wesley’s answer.

Notes
1: It is my first attempt at writing anything so any constructive advice is more than welcome. if your comment will be just to insult, don’t do it, you will waste time typing and I will waste time reading it and not giving a damn about it.
2: To make it worse English is not my mother language. I’m still learning and through reading and talking is not a problem for me, writing is my weak spot. Though not the only one and not the most important, this is one of the reasons I decided to start writing this novel.
3: I do not own the artwork used as a cover, I found it on google, I liked it A LOT and decided to use it. At the time I tried to contact the creator but received no answer and if he wants me to remove it I will.
With that out of the way, I hope you enjoy it. <<less
