as an anomaly sweeps the world, many gain strange abilities. as for Mal, the power makes it so they cannot die, or more accurately, they get sent back in time to the last place they were safe at. A power that seems like a blessing until you’re crushed under rubble, drowned in sewage, shot, stabbed, all while having the royalties to feel all the pain from such fates. And to put the icing on the cake, a strange message appeared before everyone’s eyes stating that unless someone breaks down the gate within 17 years, everyone will die”.
now Mal needs to find a way to “break down the gate” (whatever the hell that means) or they will be forced to die and revive, only to die again for the rest of time. Which would suck, probably.

this is technically a time loop novel.
the MC is chaotic neutral with a worryingly lack of care about how their actions affect people.
i want to interact with my readers so give critique and suggestions. I will sometimes host polls for the personality for new characters, story decisions, and the ability to cancel annoying characters, besides Mal, if they get enough complaints. I am also impatient and will end decision polls when I want to write more. If no one votes, I choose, so don’t let that happen.

if you’re want world building check out hitchhikers guide to checkpoint (an encyclopedia of what I made up with lots more explanation) <<less

The 'Skirmishes' have left the land in absolute ruin. The last few remains of civilization are Corrupt Citadels; oppressive and dangerous for most who inhabit them. Outside is 'The Big Waste'; a stretch of endless damaged landscape that has been scorched, poisoned and left to decay by the horrors of constant war. Desperate survivors live day to day by scavenging for societies that live in bombed out cities and towns. The constant threat of Citadel bounty hunters, mutated animals, goulish, formerly-human mercenaries and all powerful gangs looms over everyone. Happiness is unlikely, conflict is frequent, death is certain.

When an accomplished destruction derby driver decides to take a seemingly simple delivery job outside the citadel for a little adventure, he learns very quickly why the first day in the Big Waste can often become your last.

Actually, I have one more job that is a lowly salaryman from my past life on Earth ... but it's kind of pointless to dwell on it since I'm enjoying my new life to the fullest, being doted on by everyone from ministers, nobles, maids and of course, my mother who is a beautiful and majestic queen.

However, however! Aside from all the good things, there is a very ominous feeling here!

Why are there so many soldiers drilling and marching in full gear every day? Mother, look, they are not even elves! What are they doing here? No! Stop doing that to me, I'm already an adult~

Mother, are you saying we are going to war!? It is the orcs to the South or the pesky humans to the East?

Oh, so that's where we are heading .... EHHHHH?!!! <<less
