Inevitable Equilibrium - Part 1: Primal Instincts
Ren, a typical high schooler, decides to take an alternate route home from school. Little did he know that this choice would lead him to his death...or did he? He's tasked with saving a world from it's demise by the hands of the Demon King. Sounds like a story full of adventure, right? However, a man naturally attracts a harem in this world due to it's declining population. And with relationships comes responsibilities. And that's just the tip of the iceberg as adjusting to a new world is not as simple as stories make it out to be. In addition, knowing that his actions can possibly cost the populace their lives leads to immense pressure on his shoulders. This is just some of what awaits the protagonist in just part 1 of this of this multipart and multiversal storyline. There are things moving on a much grander scale, and everything must be balanced, including his abnormal existence. Equilibrium is...inevitable.
-comments-
I had a few goals for writing this story, but this will come to light way down the line (probably in several years). I decided to go in the opposite direction from plots of similar stories. That's why I'll get most of the romance out of the way in the first 2 parts (loose plan). The rest of the parts will focus on world building and battles. If you think the protagonist is overpowered at the start...you have no idea.
-the picture is AI generated and not an accurate reflection of the story.
-I am a fulltime worker who writes irregularly and slowly (physical typing speed). I write when I can and will post once monthly.
-nudity is depicted, but it is not of the 'ecchi' genre (hate panty shots and needless fan service that doesn't add to character development).
-Intercourse happens but is not detailed.
-this is a war stricken world, so unsavory things happen. Please keep that in mind for things unsaid but implied. I try to keep things as lighthearted as possible while trying to keep it as realistic as possible.
-I wrote this as if watching it in my head, which influenced the writing style. Also, when reading novels, if there are multiple characters, I sometimes find it hard to distinguish who's talking as I can see multiple characters saying what was written. I decided to always make it clear who's talking, so it turned into a book/script/anime hybrid.
-any feedback, including typos, are much appreciated.
Upload Schedule: 1st of every month (wish I had time to do it more frequently, but alas, responsibilities. I am not writing to become an author, but only for myself and my own mental health. If the opportunity presented itself, sure, why not? However, I can't justify the risks for pursuing something I don't have an absolute diehard passion for. I have immense respect for those who can pursue it and overcoming the obstacles.
I sincerely apologise to anyone reading it in its early days and wishes for more confident. I only thought of stories for myself for many years, but I found myself forgetting parts of my stories. That's why I decided to write them down and record them online, leaving a piece of me out there for hopefully eternity. My goal is not short-term, but very long-term. I just hope that someday, long after I'm gone, someone will read my work and they were happy that they had done so. Just the thought of that makes me content. I hope you understand that I would only upload more frequently and pursue a career in this if my work profoundly resonated with people, so much so that it basically forced me to be an author.
