As they grow from innocent children to battle-hardened teenagers, their paths diverge but remain connected by the shadows of their past.

Meanwhile, Daglan is driven by a singular purpose: to avenge his parents' murder and rescue his long-lost sister from the clutches of darkness. But in this realm where swords clash with holograms and magic mingles with machinery, nothing is as simple as it seems. As Daglan closes in on his parents' killer, he must confront not only the demons of his past but also the harsh realities of a world where hope struggles to survive. Will Daglan find justice and redemption? Can Rozeree outrun her demons and claim her own destiny? Or will the darkness that threatens to consume them both prove too powerful to overcome? Dive into this dark fantasy where medieval lore collides with futuristic innovation, and discover whether the flame of hope can truly endure in the face of unimaginable adversity.

[Participant in the Royal Road Writhathon Challenge] NOTE: Please support in Royal Road. Every like or comments goes a long way. After a painful breakup, a 28-year-old literature teacher is unexpectedly transported to a mystical medieval world with his loyal college assistant. In a land where words have the power to shape reality, their literary knowledge becomes their greatest advantage. As they explore this strange new realm, they uncover a dangerous secret: the godlike creator has lost control, and now the characters are alive—and free to make their own choices. ______________________________________ What to expect: 1. Narrative Driven, the story may be a litrpg but the focus is less from the stat blocks and more to the characters and plot. Although, the stats are still very much significant.  2. Conflicts are real, this means that the main characters don't just get better and move on from past traumas right away. Improvement is gradual. If you don't like waiting, or feeling pain before having the strength to overcome it, this might not be for you (sorry, I've decided to take it to the unconventional direction) 3. There is a potential slow burn romance subplot and potential love interests depending on plot progression and audience interaction. But, I'd like to make it clear that this is not a harem. 4. A whole lot of literary allusions, if you enjoy popular and classic literature, you're in for a ride! 5. Explores the struggles of a modern day teacher in depth. This story is a quest for redemption,  6. The main characters are human, this means that they aren't the typical Mary Sue or Gary Stew kinda characters. Capable of making good decisions as much as they're capable of making mistakes. ______________________________________ Sidenote: It isn't excessively violent, in fact, it's the opposite. Just wanted to put the warning since some chapter has mild descriptions of violence. Erring on the side of caution would be best. ______________________________________ This journey is a quest for redemption, a confrontation of past regrets and the reimagination life and love in a world as fluid as ink on a page.

At the Baeksang Arts Awards ceremony, a stunning actress was sitting alone in the audience. It seemed she was waiting for someone, constantly tapping her hand. While waiting, she dialed a number. Seeing the caller ID, she remembered the past. Weirdly, she remembered the feeling—once upon a time, she loved this man, but now he had become the person she hated the most. On the other side: As soon as the man's work finished, he grabbed his car keys, rushing out as quickly as possible. When his car engine roared, he glanced at his watch—it was already 7 PM. He was late. Cursing in his head, he stepped on the gas fully. No sooner than ever, his car was zooming across the highway at 300 km/h. He wanted to reach Seoul within half an hour. "Ha." What madness. He was trying to cover 150 km within 30 minutes, from Daejeon to Seoul. Now, some people might ask why he was rushing so fast, so desperate to get there. It was because of his wife. Early this morning, his wife insisted on going to the Baeksang Arts Awards ceremony. She told him that this was the most highly regarded award in South Korea, and she had been nominated for the Best New Actress award. That's why he was rushing as recklessly as possible. He didn't want to miss out on this golden opportunity to make amends with his wife, so he promised her that he would attend. While driving, his phone rang. Thinking it must be Soo-jin, he didn't pick up and instead increased his car's speed. He had been in a cold war with his wife for a few days now. Well, it wasn't her fault; he was the one who broke the promise. Now, he didn’t want to repeat the same mistake again. As he reached the Baeksang Arts Awards venue, he could hear the award presenters' voices. "The Baeksang Arts Award for Best New Actress goes to..." When he hurriedly showed his venue tickets, the security guards stepped back without checking and bowed. As soon as he was about to start running inside, he heard the presenter's voice again. "Kim Soo-jin." When he heard his wife's name, he was filled with immense joy. His halted steps started running toward her, finding new determination to see the award in her hands. While he was one step away from the venue, Soo-jin's voice could be heard throughout the room. "Good evening, everyone. I am deeply honored and humbled to receive this prestigious Baeksang Award tonight. I want to thank the judges, my incredible team, and my fans who have supported me through every step of my journey. This award means more to me than I can express." When he opened the doors, their eyes met. She was staring at the door, waiting for him, it seemed. He showed a victory sign with a big smile on his face, saying he kept his promise, but... Suddenly, Soo-jin became quiet, staring at him. There were tears in her eyes, her brows furrowed. Her eyes changed—they were the same as his father's eyes, filled with hatred. In the past, Soo-jin looked at him with indifference after their marriage, but never had she looked at him with hatred. "Why?" was the only question in his head. He was confused. On stage, countless thoughts were going through Soo-jin's head. She didn't want to do this; there was no choice for her but to reveal everything. If she wanted to be happy, she needed to reveal everything to the public because, even after everything she had done, she could not get a divorce out of this marriage, as she firmed her resolve. Her voice cracked while speaking. Tears were pouring from her eyes, but she spoke as stubbornly as always. "I have been diagnosed with angiosarcoma, a rare and aggressive cancer of the heart. I have less than three months left. I want to spend these three months with the person I love. I was forced to marry Kim Joon-ho. There is no love between us. Please help me. Please save me."

Losing access to your cryptocurrency wallet is bad enough, but realizing that someone close to you, a person you trusted was behind it? That’s a gut punch I wasn’t prepared for. Unfortunately, that was my reality when I found out my ex-girlfriend had stolen $145,000 from my wallet. The betrayal was real, the access was gone, and I was left staring at my screen in a mix of shock and disbelief. I felt like I had been hit by a digital train, and it wasn’t slowing down anytime soon. Desperation doesn’t begin to describe how I felt. I mean, $145,000? That’s not pocket change! My first instinct was to panic, which I did, quite thoroughly. But after hours of hopeless Googling and probably enough coffee to fuel a small nation, I came across SPIDER WEB SECURITY. At that point, it felt like I’d found a lifeboat in a sea of sharks—and I wasn’t wrong. The moment I reached out, SPIDER WEB SECURITY approached my case like seasoned pros. They didn’t give me false hope or make wild promises, but they assured me that my case was in good hands. And boy, did they deliver. Their team handled my wallet recovery with the kind of precision you’d expect from brain surgeons except, you know, for crypto. They explained their process clearly, kept me informed at every step, and didn’t disappear into the ether like I feared my money had. Their communication was so on point, I almost wished I could hire them to manage my life. Despite the gravity of the situation, the team never lost their professionalism or their sense of empathy. They knew I wasn’t just losing digital coins; I had lost trust in someone close, and that hurt more than anything. But SPIDER WEB SECURITY wasn’t just about getting my $145,000 back. They were about restoring my confidence in the cryptocurrency space. And let’s not forget they did it fast. I wasn’t stuck waiting in limbo, biting my nails down to the bone. And oh, did I mention the price transparency? Not a single surprise fee, no hidden costs, and no vague "we'll let you know" nonsense. They were upfront from start to finish, which was refreshing in a world where everything seems to come with fine print.Long story short, if you’ve been locked out of your crypto, whether it’s from a simple mistake or a betrayal that could rival a soap opera, don’t panic (like I did). SPIDER WEB SECURITY will not only recover your assets but also help you sleep better at night. They certainly did for me.  Email:  Spidercloud@programmer.net Website: www.spiderwebsecurityonline.com Whatsapp: +1 (253) 262‑9580
