While most dream of battles and glory, Kai finds peace in the solitude of his forge—until one fateful night when he discovers an ancient, shattered weapon bearing a faint pulse of life.

Warning! Addiction ahead. [Change in synopsis is in points below] ****** There are many things that I hate to the point of loathing. But what I hate most about this scenario is a hero who screws up. I mean sure, he can do whatever he wants. But all I'm asking is not to be naïve. This is a story about how I got transmigrated into the world of a novel, about how I tolerated the naïve MC whose actions were no better than a four years old even though he had regressed. And how I, the side character, or a small villain one could say, had to clean up the messes made by the hero and his party. ******** The synopsis might not be that compelling but I'm still learning folks. I hope you give this novel a read until the free chapters before you decide whether to drop it or keep reading it. Looking forward to working with all of you! Stay tuned! A few points: 1: The cover is A.I generated and it is completely mine. 2: The new update schedule is one chapter per day. But the option of bonus chapters is now available. 3: [100 power stones= 1 bonus chapter] [300 power stones= 2 bonus chapters] [5 golden tickets= 1 bonus chapter] 4: The free release ends at 50 chapters. 5: Please, Please, Please, Do not hesitate to point out my mistakes as they will help me improve my novel. Any suggestions that you have are also welcome. 6: Most importantly, do not forget to write a review. Whatever you think. Don't hesitate.

In a distant world, there was once a god—his power limitless, his throne unrivaled. His kingdom was vast, his people happy, and peace reigned. But then, darkness crept in, and war consumed everything. His paradise was reduced to ashes. Exiled and alone, the god fled beyond the edges of creation, desperate to find a way to restore his lost kingdom and take his revenge. But after countless reincarnations, he slowly forgot it all—his past, his purpose, his power. But what if he remembered? What would happen if the truth came rushing back? ************************* what are you going to read? well, you may find some similarities with the "reverend insanity " as it's my source of inspection but is it a cheap copy? hell no. The first volume (1_53) may not be much sound like a typical web novel style as it wasn't originally planned to be publish as an online novel, yet I'm working hard to fix it in the next volumes. But generally speaking, I'm constantly trying to improve so please keep that in mind. about updating, I try to do it daily but sometimes it's just not my day so I'll publish more or longer chapters the other day. The reason it's free is because I want everyone to enjoy this so consider it a gift from me. The world building is unique in it's own way and the more you read, the better you understand the lore. Do we have harem or something like this? If it makes the story better I'll even kill The MC So if it was necessary to add anything to novel, I won't hold back. Finally, I think there's a need to make a chapter and explain the things you might forget, so I'll do that when I have time. Then, smile and enjoy. P.S: I'm pretty curious about how you see this work of mine so if you like, write about your experience in the review section.
