But now he wonders If he walks this path to its bitter end - If he remembers who he was - Will it mark the conclusion of his torment... or merely the genesis of a far crueler truth?

Have you ever how the 'unique quest chains' are born, how 'mega-rare super-items' just drop out of thin air, and why every random minor character in the starting village is a hidden expert? I am the reason. I am the silently curshing ghost ofthe machine running cogs of 'secret quests', the plot-driving device of destiny, the shepherd to the millions of players that just KNOW that every stone holds a unique opportunity for loot, lore and skills. I am a sole Admin of the greatest DMMO-RPG, partialy AI and a man who holds the great responsibility overseeing the life of the game... With a slight problem though. The game was destroyed a week before it's start. Completely. So now there is no game. There are players, me and million of cheap tricks I honed in my life for the single goal of proving to all of you, that... This game definitely does exist. --- First of all, I post this book on my Patreon. 18 chapters of this book are there - for 3$ it's all yours... Though, of course, I will be posting it for free on this site too. Except I first post them on my Patreon - so now 1 chapter is here - and 19 are there. When it would have 10 chapters here? 28 chapters are there. So... You know? You can support my life there for 18 chapters ahead of the curve. I will be very grateful!

--- : A War Beyond Meaning Before Reality had a name. Before even Time dared to move forward— There was only Somewhere. A realm beyond comprehension, vast and alien to all things. In this incomprehensible void, a cosmic war raged between two forces: Existence:NOTHINGNESS and the Unknown. This was no ordinary battle. It defied logic, defied order, defied even the laws of contradiction. Blows were struck not with weapons, but with meanings. Each side, infinite and paradoxical, tore at each other with everything they were. And at its climax, something happened. They broke each other. Both wounded beyond repair, Existence:NOTHINGNESS and the Unknown collapsed. The war paused—not ended, merely delayed. It would return, someday, when the stars were right and the cosmos once again stirred with dread anticipation. Until then… EXIN, the embodiment of Existence:NOTHINGNESS, must recover. He must prepare. Before his wounds drag him into dormancy, before he is lost to timeless sleep—he must arrange something. But what? Even the author does not know yet. And that is why you must keep reading. --- Edited with chatgpt

When Kensuke Arima, a 42-year-old lonely corporate secretary, suddenly finds himself transported to the fantastic realm of Eldralore, he expects to finally become the protagonist of his own story. Surely, like the heroes in his favorite isekai manga, he’ll awaken to overpowered abilities, legendary weapons, or hidden destinies. Instead? Nothing. No magic. No strength. No chosen one aura. Only a younger body — that of a 24-year-old scribe working under Count Gareth Ironwill: Champion of the Realm, Lord of Tharros Vale, Slayer of Demonkind, Crusher of Chaos, and the absurdly beloved chosen of the gods. Once again, Kensuke is stuck in the background. A side character in someone else’s legend. But perhaps... being a nobody in a world of somebodies might just be the best place to change everything.

Siapakah aku? Aku sudah lupa jawaban dari pertanyaan itu sejak lama. Sejak aku melarikan diri dari rumah itu, begitu putus asa untuk melarikan diri, aku pergi hanya dengan pakaian di tubuh dan kaos kaki di kakiku. Setelah hari itu, aku hanya berjalan dengan sepatu yang kucuri. Apakah aku seorang gadis yang mencari makna hidup dalam pelukan pria tanpa wajah? Mereka semua begitu mudah dilupakan. Sampai dia datang. Dia membawaku ke bawah air terjun dan membuatku lupa akan namaku, dan sebagai balasannya, aku mengambil namanya. Enzo Vitale.

Sekarang, aku adalah seorang gadis yang mencari perlindungan di mercusuar reyot bersama seorang pria yang membenciku hampir sama besarnya dengan hasratnya padaku. Dia ingin menyakitiku, tetapi penjaga tua pulau yang ditinggalkan mungkin memiliki niat yang jauh lebih mengerikan. Ini bukan lagi pertanyaan tentang siapa aku, melainkan, akankah aku bertahan hidup?
