But unlike any tutorial he’s ever encountered, this one is impossibly hard and seemingly designed to break him. Forced to face gruesome and mind-bending trials, Krimson's only hope for survival lies in mastering a mysterious power known as Mentakinte.

With each challenge, the tutorial grows harder, and Krimson begins to wonder if escape is even possible—or if this place was always meant to be his end. But Krimson isn’t one to give up. He fights not only for his survival but for answers. What is the purpose of this tutorial? Who—or what—is behind it? And why was he chosen? One thing is certain: in this world, there are no second chances, and failure means a fate worse than death.

I have a mental condition called multiple personality disorder. There are three personalities I can conjure: 1. Goofy. As his name suggests, his personality is very kind and clumsy. 2. Logical. The rationalist. The personality that relies entirely on his reasonings. 3. Monster.................................................................. I also have a mental condition called Videographic memory. I can remember any movements I see and can flawlessly mimic them. In a world where underworld organizations rule supreme, where physical strength is often biologically unnatural, where guns and firearms have ceased to exist. It's almost too perfect that I'm born in this world, almost as if fate favors my well-being. Almost as if fate is telling me to rule this world... To be the best!

A tired dude just trying to sleep without worry getting involved in things way over his head. [There is cultivation The auxiliary chapters will explain A LOT, read them Not trying to make anything complicated so won't be intricate I will throw you into things kind of, but the pace will be decided later Upload when I have time] IMPORTANT NOTICE: Romance is not the focus, but there will be some culture and multiple possible love interests though harem is not in the tag NTR sucks chill, sigma male mc no edgy shit or ruthless/indifferent though mc is mostly unbiased Tell me if I do something that is inconsistent or any desires you might have, if I notice I will take them into consideration No incest, only because family plays a role in shaping mc so you won't see much of them I am a fan of crazy women, but it won't to be the extreme, disgusting shit. I just appreciate lack of possibility of NTR Can get pretty deep and shit, mc has his own values which will be made clear and he often has certain wisdom not found in the cultivation world Mc is both agent of chaos and the most consistent person you'll ever meet, he establishes boundaries As a straight male you will not see too many well established male characters other than mc. I do not enjoy writing them for culture reasons. There will not be many characters that receive focus though there will be different povs Any character developing feeling for another character, female to mc basically, will develop rationally No heaven defying luck, any encounters that mc has will either be not insanely lucky or as a product of meeting someone else who would logically have connections with some person who you would be insanely lucky to meet Simplicity is key, for both mc and me so don't expect too much intricacy, especially in naming sense, I will not mention anything that I don't intend to make into some character or another. No revenge fantasy most character growth will come from characters other than mc, not saying that he won't change necessarily, but you'll see that he really doesn't need some insane character development.

Azar A Sanguine, His Majesty’s 15th princess, was a cowardly girl. She'd lived her youthhood in her head. Too naive to understand then, she once believed that the cruel world was a true mimic of her harmless fantasies. Akin to a small chick, born and raised in a pearl cage, fed and bathed warmly-- she did not hold the same instincts as birds who grew in the skies. That was why she was not able to protect a single thing. Only after living a hard life in which she suffered every single day, that glass-hearted princess finally came to an end in midst of a battle between nations. Yet the moment she closed her eyes, the gods that have ignored her all along decide to send Azar back once more. This time, the precious things that she easily lost... this time, she would be able to save them. In order to do that, Azar would first need to steal her sister's husband.

Now she finds herself at the alter offered up as a bride to the vile, and aging man; asking herself if she will ever make it home, or will she meet her fate at the hands of the king before she can do so?
