I was, No! It will be better to say Paul Blanch was an 18 years old boy spending his life with any goal in life. He was finishing high school without knowing what to do only following the trend imposed by society, having a very boring life.
The only place to escape in his monotonous life was his own mind. When he had a little of free time he will read some books and imagine himself as the main character of the story. First starting with western books and finally thanks to the recommendation of a friend, he started watching anime. Being Shingeki no Kyogyn his first, later he continued reading manga that was more advanced than the anime and finally the last step to light and web novels.
One curious fact was that at first, he didn't like fanfiction, they were like copies done by non-professionals and knowing the trash that did some professionals, so it will be normal to novel people to do it worst. But when he started reading them, he liked them the most because they show you more possibilities of a single story, improving some aspects and even correcting others (even when the majority are shit like there's a big possibility that this fanfic will turn). Also, he fell empathic because there's a lot of people that thought the same way as him, imaging and living these stories.
Another fact that it must be highlighted is that when he started reading Chinese novels ( he started first reading Japanese) he really like it but after reading 5, he would confuse them, especially their start and never know what novel what is.
One manga and novel that he really liked was Douluo Dalu or Soul land, at least it was very simple to differentiate with the spirit cultivation and the name of the protagonists was easy to remember (yeah I know how to count up to 3, and I don't know why I write novels because I never read it) and the development and fighting in them.
He especially liked the first Douluo because it was a simple life without being too technologically developed. Instead of the highly technological of the others (I hate mechas! If you want something big, resistant, and fully armed, the human figure is never the correct body to do it).
When he wasn't doing anything he always though of reincarnating and living in that world sometimes being the protagonist, others being Yu Xiaogang and changing the ending being with Bibi Dong, even there's a time when he dreams of being reincarnated as a girl being the little sister of one of the 7 devils and there was also the time thinking a little pervert, having a spirit that was his own body known as 9 Goddess Body that can't absorb spirit rings so he is rated as trash but at last learn that he can create spirit ring having S with women, improving their spirit and him gaining and ability of mimic a low grade of their spirit cultivating- Having and harem of 9 women, one will be and OC that will be his childhood friend that cannot cultivate, other needed to be Bai Chenxiang breaking her 38 and also RongRong improving her spirit to the 9... and finally ascending, thinking about that the girls and women were always described beautifully and that the protagonists of the saga only choose one when and harem was a very viable option. (WOW I think that a say too much and all lost the main story so let's return to it).
Like everything, this starts with a start only that this start is an ending, the ending of Paul Blanch and the birth of me. One life finishes creating another one, creating a new path and changing fate.
One day Paul was returning from school, walking on the same street as always and crossing the street when suddenly, a loud noise of a truck horn was heard. Without time to turn his head, he fainted due to a heart attack, watching the truck running in front of him waving his hand to some people, he closed his eyes to not open again while cursing that it's prohibited to claxon in a city, at least Paul Blanch eyes closed forever.
