___________________________

Before You Start Reading

1. 18+ Warning

There is no smut or ecchi in here. The 18+ warnings are from topics that are way too disturbing to read. Since I will focus on the dark genre, gore, and horror aspects, I will go into much more detail about it.

2. Transmigration and Academy Focus

This is a transmigration novel with a heavy focus on an academy arc for the first 200–300 chapters. Though Academy arc will start around Chapter 19 (Volume 2). If this isn't your preference, feel free to skip it.

3. Might be Hateable MC.

At first MC seems normal, but once the Academy arc starts, The protagonist (MC) will be intentionally written as morally ambiguous, choosing to act as a 'villain' for personal reasons. And it will never be my intention to make his character likeable in early chapters, I know it might be hard to sympathize with him.

4. Genre Focus

Expect the plotline to mainly focuses on dark genre aspects. It will commonly revolves on the character's conflict and growth. Additionally, this novel will focus on fighting scene and action.

5. MC's strength.

MC is physically weak and has almost no mana. But that's simply because he already possessed an overpowered unique skill. Although I do intend to make him par with his enemies in later run, however I might focus of him using brains to survive in most fight (rather than investing in his own skill).

6. No harem/romance

There will be no harem in this novel. While love interests exist, romance will only be explored when relevant to the main plot. (Love at first sight/ first kindness? yeah no, that doesn't exist.)

7. Slow Paced

The story might be boring in the early chapters due to the build-up. Do bear with me, I dislike rushing the plot and having plot holes. Do note that each chapter is very important, I don't randomly add an event that is useless to the plot.
