Think to yourself, just this one little question-
"What if the Sludge Villain never got away?"

(When a bottle doesn't drop to the floor, a world is changed forevermore)

~~~

Izuku Midoriya was an ordinary kid in an extraordinary world; one of heroes, quirks, and promises of glory to all that dared to reach out for it. If you had a good quirk, that is. And destiny had that all wrapped up in a nice little package for him until something shifted.

It was a minor cog that deviated in the clockwork of destiny, nothing significant in the scheme of things. But, as it turned out, even the most minor of cogs could cause a glitch in the machine. A fracture in fate. And what do you get with fractured fate? Why, who knows? The road he would walk upon in the future, whether it be one of thorns or sunshine, would be decided by him and him alone.

"Life is composed of decisions and perspective. The scenario is irrelevant; one can dance in the rain or cry in it. Thus, the person we are and can become is a product of it as well. That is the very essence of life."

Would he be a savior? A villain?
Or something else entirely?
That is the true question.

Author's Notes:
Please check out the reviews, if you are still concerned or unsure!

This is a rational fantasy story, with a different approach to the isekai genre.
Slow progression at the beginning that will speed up as the plot progresses, building off the previous achievements.

This story contains descriptive sexual content that is relevant to the plot.

Inspired by the Human Domestication Guide setting but utterly missing the point, choosing to focus on a misinterpretation of the affini's philosophy and how, to at least one silly little human, it bears a striking similarity to benevolent nihilism.

"In Earth's distant future, most of its religions known today decline or change. As a result of this spiritual upheaval, the barrier between the spiritual world and the physical one falter, and ghouls and demons are loosed upon the earth. Ultimately, most of these are resealed by the new religions, but one such demon named Belial, requires nothing short of sealing by angels to put back to rest. Thousands of years later, a beggar named Ambrosia Brahmin picks herself off the street only to be sent on a fetch quest by God, joined by swordsman, a shaman, a thief, a druid, an exorcist, an angel, and a demon.

Remember taking all those trips with your parents and every time you got going, someone inevitably asks the question "are we there yet"? Yeah, this is nothing like that. This short story has everything that nobody wants!... more>>

Gods? Greek, Norse, Eldritch, you bet!
Mythology? In moderate amounts.
Jokes? So many you'll start to wonder where the actual story is!
Things so obscure to the average person that you might need to grab an encyclopedia? What kind of story would this be without those!
Romance? No, we've got everything else though, including the kitchen sink.
Poop throwing? You bet we do!
A protagonist that uses their mind? Absolutely not! I mean, they aren't even a living being, technically, and they certainly aren't biological in origin.

While this story is tagged as a gender bender, the protagonist is non-binary/gender fluid. What this means is that the pronoun usage is irrelevant in terms of telling the actual story. The pronoun choices made are simply a reflection of the isolated main character's perception of self based on its own understanding of the world, just as the individual inside Plato's cave, would have no understanding of being male or female.
This short story was also inspired by the Chinese novel "Journey to the West" (also known by the titles "Monkey" and "The Monkey King") credited as being written by Wu Cheng'en. <<less

Volume 1 - Blurb;

The ships of the Tristian Flotilla are gathering, a dangerous submarine is already on the move, and it will all come to a head at the sight of a mechanical moon.

'The UnderCurrent Incident' of 2022 gave humanity it's first glance at alien life, although not in an expected way.
It allowed for a VR-like vision into the lives of an entire race of people separate to our own. This novel serialises their story, the story of 5 ordinary pilots partaking in an interplanetary war of galactic proportions.
With no way of knowing if this glimpse into a foreign society is an alternate reality or some distant planet in our own universe, it would only take so long for the public to demand a guided tour - Now you hold that very thing in your hands, with exclusive access to the project and transcripts from the original experiment's team. You will learn of the lives to which UnderCurrent affords us a view into.
Of the Battleship Fluchtig's soldiers, of a conflict that spans far more then any of them know and of their hunt for a 'Dangerous Submarine'.

Now on Royal Road and coming to Scribblehub!
This is my own original work, with obvious inspirations from the likes of Gundam, Dune, 1984, Evangellion, Grimgar and anime in general.
All ideas and concepts shown are my own, though I do Parody some things.
A fair amount of research has gone into many of the topics in this book, but I am by no means an expert in any.

I'd love to share some of the research I've come across on mecha, living in Space, and amputees. Amputees in particular is a worthy topic we should all be more educated on - You may find this video link a brief intro into that world; https://youtu.be/piiFI8QafHs

There is a degree of deconstructionism towards the mecha genre involved with an onus on taking a more practical look at the features of that mode of storytelling, giving actually worldbuilding explanations for some of the fantastical equipment involved and using the likes of military structure and resource management in conjunction with the story, but hopefully this is something anyone can enjoy with no prior knowledge of the genre traditions.

Thanks for reading! <<less
