The theme of story is about man who is almost imposible to kill and the advantages and disadvantages that comes with it. Thus story will contain body experimentation, torture and other such things that are not for everyone. Of course, I don't plan to make it needlessly gory and uncomfortable for people. It won't be detailed that much.

The story was inspired from novels 'Immortal in the Magic World' and 'As an Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills. It is mostly about the idea of immortality rather than their story.

My first novel and me trying to write something, so let's how is this going to go.
What can you expect? I am not sure, as I am new to this I decided to go with a slice-of-life story that contains some comedy and is mostly about making anime and weird characters.
When it comes to grammar, everything should be fine on that front, English isn't my first language but I tried to fix mistakes while writing. Of course, if you notice any mistakes, please tell me.

-Right now, this fanfic does not have a regular update schedule. So the time it may take me in order to update the next chapter will not be consistent.
-I think I have a good grasp on the English language. However, I can not guarantee that I will not make grammatical mistakes. And for this reason, I would like to ask those of you who read this fanfic to point out the grammatical errors that I am sure I will make as I write this story.
-I do not own any of the characters from the canon material of the One Piece manga/anime. They belong to Oda, Shueisha and Toei Animation. I only own the original characters that I create for this fanfic.
-This is my first time publishing a literary work, so I would really appreciate it if anyone who reads this fanfic to share their opinions on any of the aspects of the fanfic that you feel would help make the story interesting.

Overflowing Beauty (?) [OB?], is a gal game with beautiful and (kind) heroine's? Nope. It's a fantasy gal game that contains extremely dangerous individuals (heroine's). ... more>>

The protagonist with it's kindness (Yasashii) making every heroine's wet left n right. Ridiculous right? but that's just how harem stories works.

But it would seems I have been transferred into OB (?) I won't complain if I possessed some mob or extra's, BUT it had to be the first villain, It seems like God has seen my despair, I gained a system that would help me out with my survival journey in this crazy world created by insane developers

====

Well Protagonist, those crazy individuals are all yours~ I'll be on my way to my happy ending.

...That was initially the plan.

"kufu~ found you~"

Why is this happening...

=====
I don't own the cover, it's actually from Sasaki and Peeps.

Anyways this would be a story written by a newbie ranked writer. I just write whenever I have time or mood so this is like kinda a hobby, so don't expect a great quality story since yours truly don't focus on this kind of stuff.

Also some might get turned off at the system part, which I understand since some don't like it cuz its just something that gives power rather than gaining it, I do plan making it similar to the first quest of the mc in Solo Leveling. If you don't understand what I mean cuz you don't read SL, it was a quest that required the mc to exercise daily if not he gets some punishment. Also I'll try not to making it system slave one!

Tho I'm not sure if I could even update this again after xD I'm lazy asf. <<less

Everyone has a story to tell, made from the moments in the lives we share. Consequently, every person has their own perspective, their own subjective experiences, and thereby, their own subjective realities. Even if the exact same story is told by two people, the details from one will differ in the other.... more>>

Reed and Lumina share their lives together, but each of them came from different backgrounds; each of them went through their own unique experiences. Reed is a human being like everyone else on Earth. Lumina is an Altiri, like every one in Genosis.

The other side of the same story might sound similar at a quick glance, but in the depths of every personal reality, very little is ever the same. Welcome to the far side of the universe, in a safe corner of the world you've probably heard nothing about. Welcome ~ to Genosis. Welcome ~ to The Other Side. <<less
