Is a peaceful life too much to ask for?" Tega Bridges was just another soldier crippled by the cruelty of war. Bound to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, he spent his days running a dilapidated bar—a family inheritance and the last asset he had. One fateful night, after serving a homeless man who seemed insane, Tega found himself standing before a radiant goddess who promised his dreams could become reality if he lent her a hand. Reincarnated into the mysterious world of Arcania—where mana capacity determined ones social standing—Tega was reborn without an ounce of mana, marking him as an anomaly in this bloodthirsty land. Unfazed by his lack of mana and the poor treatment he received, Tega tried his best to grow stronger. Discovering that he had to meet impossible requirements to use his golden finger, Tega was left powerless in a world teetering on the brink of war. How could someone who couldn't even protect himself aid an enigmatic figure like a goddess? He just wanted a simple life, so why did fate keep shoving him into the heart of conflict? If he could spend the rest of his days in seclusion, he'd take the chance without hesitation—but his destiny had other plans. For some, despair might seem the only option. But to someone who had faced even worse hardships, it was merely a stepping stone to something greater. Destiny wasn’t set in stone, and fate could be tamed. If you can't change your fate, then you live your life like a puppet. Tega refused to let his story end as it had before. This time, he would seize control of his own destiny. Unwilling to succumb to the whims of fate, Tega makes a pact with a mysterious being, gaining the power to finally change his life—at a cost.

Perhatian kepada semua pembaca : Sebelum membaca novel saya ini, saya ingin menginformasikan kalau novel saya ini alurnya agak lambat, jadi mungkin ada beberapa pembaca yang kurang suka dengan novel saya ini. Meski begitu, saya berterima kasih kepada semua pembaca yang telah membaca dan mengikuti kelanjutan cerita novel saya ini. Sinopsis: Rid Archie, seorang pemuda manusia yang berasal dari desa manusia, menyadari ada yang aneh dari dunia ini. Meskipun bisa dibilang kalau dunia ini adalah dunia yang damai, tapi apakah benar seperti itu? Perbudakan masih ada di setiap negara dan diskriminasi antar ras atau bahkan sesama ras yang berbeda tingkat sosial pun masih terjadi. Tapi itu wajar, karena kedamaian yang terjadi di dunia ini hanyalah kedamaian semu karena gencatan senjata yang terjadi akibat perang antara ras Iblis dan ras Malaikat yang merupakan ras terkuat di dunia ini. Gencatan senjata antara kedua ras itu bisa saja dibatalkan kembali dan perang besar pun dapat terjadi lagi. Tidak ada kedamaian sejati di dunia ini, namun Rid Archie bertekad untuk mewujudkan kedamaian sejati di dunia ini. Tapi apakah bisa dia mewujudkannya ?

I'm not the greatest author, but I plan to consistently update this project, even if I have to write significantly slower than what you typically find on this platform. (My apologies!) Below, you will find some key notes that might be nice to see before becoming invested. PACE: 1 ch/week For now, I plan to write roughly 1 chapter / week. However, this might change in the future as I acclimate to writing more frequently. (Or if this story randomly becomes very successful.) MONEY: At least first 50 ch FREE I know I just mentioned this story becoming "successful", which typically entails paying the author and bla bla bla. BUT! I like the idea of this just being my story with no hooks or lines for a while. I plan to make the greater first chunk of the story free. TRENDS: ~~Overpowered~~ Honestly, I hate the concept of things being "overpowered". It reminds me of the first time I hacked my favorite childhood videogame. (It sucked the fun out of it completely.) That being said, I want this story to involve genuine challenges that take effort or risk to overcome. GENRE: Action, Mystery I would like this story to focus primarily around Action and Mystery. There might be some mild things tossed into the fray like comedy and romance, but don't expect anything too raunchy. DISCORD: -not yet implemented- I may eventually start a discord for this story. It could make a good library for supporting lore or artwork, as well as a place for people to discuss their theories or leave feedback. For now, this discord doesn't yet exist, but I will update you here when/if that changes. OTHER STORIES: Paused A few of you may have known me from my previous stories. I know, you may be pretty bummed that I haven't updated either in a really long time. There were some pretty hefty flaws in those stories that I kind of beat myself up over. (I actually formed this story while trying to restructure the surface world for 'Reincarnated as a Haunted Machine'.) For now, this will be my only work, as the world I live in has become rather complicated in recent years. Perhaps at some point, I will return to my other works, but for the foreseeable future, this story will be my one true love.
