A naive boy named Raka constantly shouted that he wanted to be the strongest swordsman in the universe, just like the typical hot-blooded comic book protagonists. Raka was very confident because he believed he was a destined prince who could change the course of the world. He thought this way not just because of his blind confidence or other empty things, but because of the strange dreams he kept having. Since he was a child, when Raka slept, he dreamed that he would become a great figure, whether in the military, in the civilian sector, or even in the medical field. Raka's dreams were so real as if he experienced them himself. Even more commendable, the limited information in his dreams had truth in them. Everything went according to Raka's wishes at first, but on the day of his awakening, instead of awakening the holy sword that he should have, he awakened a virtual resonance in the form of a bed. With this, Raka was devastated. He never thought he would become the greatest swordsman in the universe, but only in his dreams. Raka, who was confused, felt that the people around him were mocking him, his friends pitied him, and his family doubted him. At a time when Raka was desperate, the sword that had been with him for years turned out to have what is called a spirit. So all this time, what Raka thought was a revelation from heaven turned out to be information deliberately implanted by the Sword Spirit to disrupt his cognition and make his body compatible with the souls within the sword. With this, under the conspiracy of the Sword Spirit, Raka was severely injured. With this, five souls entered Raka's soul chamber and caused chaos. Several memories belonging to other people immediately merged with Raka's soul, which was constantly being injured by the other five souls. When he was in a life-and-death crisis, Raka was saved by a miracle. But after that, Raka became confused about who he was, whether he was Raka or one of the five invading souls of the sword spirit, or what. Now the naive Raka is forced to grow up and experience a severe identity crisis, will he still pursue his dream of being the greatest swordsman in the world or something else?

In a land where the dead whisper secrets and the past refuses to stay buried, Eryndor Valis has spent his life surviving in the shadows. A mercenary with no past and no allegiance, he has no interest in noble bloodlines or long-forgotten prophecies. But when an ill-fated mission leads him to a crypt filled with ancient guardians, Eryndor discovers a chilling truth—he bears the mark of a lost kingdom, a heritage tied to the Shadow King himself. With the empire’s most feared assassins on his trail, Eryndor is forced to flee with Selene Dain, a rogue scholar who knows more about his past than she admits. Together, they seek the Sanctuary of Echoes, an ancient temple that holds the key to his true identity. But the closer they get, the more dangerous their path becomes. Hunted by the Shadow King’s forces, haunted by a mysterious Seer who warns of an even greater threat, and burdened with a power he does not understand, Eryndor must decide—will he claim his birthright, or let the kingdom of shadows consume him? The truth has a price. And in a land ruled by darkness, the cost may be his soul.

Isekai, self-insert MC, overpowered, science fiction, strategy and spaceship battles. Chat-GPT for chapter 1-8. Starting from chapter 9, I will properly write. This is for anyone who see all of that and are still interested: I want to make a novel with as realistic physics as possible. I will, almost definitely, create a bunch of magical sci-fi stuff, especially later on, but I will try to stick to established rules as much as possible. Much of the orbital mechanics and warfare is learnt from the game Children of a dead Earth and Kerbal Space Program. This is my very first book, so expect no planning and shitty execution, even with GPT.
