What should you do if you suddenly find yourself in the body of a female character inside a Korean MMO? For Yura, a nerd from the music faculty, it’s a chance to forget about exams, but for Gennady Alexeevich, a retired military man with a family, it’s a complete disaster. In the world of the game "Hell Grind," they face absurd quests, magical skills, battles, and the Tree of Wisdom, which offers questionable advice. Or maybe they don’t—because the adventures are highly dubious! Struggling to survive, find a way home, and keep their sanity turns into a ridiculous yet gripping adventure.

A parody isekai with elements of LitRPG and a pinch of humor, where the gamer’s life collides with a fantasy reality in a comically absurd but thrilling clash. A lighthearted storyline, not weighed down by an abundance of numbers or intricate schemes.

This book is an experiment, a translation of my novel for a Russian-speaking audience. I'm curious to see how well the humor resonates with Western readers. Let me know what you think about the story.
