But as the days passed, I found myself navigating this bizarre world with a newfound determination. If I was going to be stuck in this story, I might as well do it my way. And who knows, maybe I could turn this chaotic tale into something truly extraordinary.

Huel lived in a world of cheesy romance novels and quiet reality. Deaf since childhood, he wore headphones not for music, but to avoid conversations he couldn’t hear. He carried a black umbrella everywhere—rain or shine—and spent every afternoon on the same park bench by the lake, watching people’s unspoken stories: a smile here, a tear there, hands clasped tight. One day, as Huel scribbled ideas for his latest story (*The Pirate’s Secret Pickle*), a loud, melodic laugh cut through his silence. He looked up. A snowy-white bird sat on a branch above him, chirping what sounded like… *giggles*. Before Huel could react, the bird hopped down—and transformed into a man. A *very* handsome man, with silver hair and a grin that sparkled. “Got you!” the man said, snatching Huel’s umbrella. His voice was clear, like bells. “I’ve been watching you ignore the world. Why?” Huel froze. He’d never heard a voice so vividly before. “H-How…?” The man tapped Huel’s headphones. “Magic. And I’m bored. You’re interesting.” He leaned closer, trapping Huel against the bench. “Let’s make a deal. I’ll give you the *best* romance plot of your life… if you let me be your boyfriend.” Huel’s face turned red. “Why?!” The man winked. “Because you’re the first human who noticed my laugh.” He tossed the umbrella into the air, and it turned into a flock of butterflies. “So? Deal?” ---

Most folks join the military to serve their homeland, defend freedom, or chase after glory and honor. Not Malakar. He joined for two simple reasons: money and women. Sergeant Rock had filled his head with promises: knighthood after the war, the adoration of the masses, men envying him, women flocking to him, and even an estate from the Emperor himself. Sounded like a good deal, right? Turns out, it was complete and utter horseshit. The battlefield didn’t smell like glory—it stank of blood, piss, and rotting corpses. Honor? A joke. What greeted him at every corner was death, endless and indiscriminate. But Malakar was nothing if not a man of his word. Sergeant Rock drilled that into him, right between the sword thrusts and the screaming. So, Malakar endured. He followed orders, slaughtered pig-bloods, butchered witches, and carved up state soldiers—all in the vain hope that Rock’s promises would pan out. Spoiler: they didn’t. Zermania lost the war, the Emperor got himself shish-kebabbed by the Sentinel, and Malakar—the so-called “hero”—was branded an enemy of humanity. Hunted down like a rabid dog, he eventually got himself killed. But death, as it turns out, is more of a suggestion than a rule. Fast forward 500 years, and Malakar’s soul has found a new meat suit. He’s alive, some what free, and determined to be a better man. Easier said than done when all you’ve ever known is war and murder. A little slip-up here, a minor incident there… like accidentally catching the eye of the world’s strongest superhero’s daughter or, oops, killing the heir to the most powerful family in existence. Malakar’s trying, really. But being a better man? Let’s just say it’s a work in progress.

Betrayed by lies and consumed by the mob's fury, the idealistic politician met his end at the hands of the very people he sought to protect. His legacy? Scorn. His dream? Trampled beneath the boots of ignorance. Never again will I serve the whims of the ignorant. When he wakes up in a foreign world, his second chance comes not as a ruler or king but as a frail parish priest in the forgotten outskirts of the Holy Empire. "The masses are nothing but tools—easily swayed, incapable of thought, and blind to reason. To lead is not to serve them, but to wield them." Bound to a mysterious system that rewards with miraculous powers, he begins his ascent—as the Messiah. Armed with the knowledge of his past life and a soul hardened by betrayal, he will transform this crumbling parish, climb the ranks of the Church, and carve a path to the pinnacle of power. In a world ruled by faith and fear, he will forge a new order, not to serve but to dominate. After all, a shepherd does not ask permission to lead the flock. He decides their fate. Faith is his weapon. Power is his goal. Divinity is his destiny.

In the heart of Vienna, where the echoes of classical melodies danced through the air, lived a modern musician named Benjamin O'Connor. Benjamin was a prodigious talent in the contemporary music scene, seamlessly blending electronic beats with soulful melodies. Little did he know that his life was about to take an extraordinary turn. One evening, as Benjamin prepared for a groundbreaking performance in the vibrant city, a mysterious force enveloped him. Colors twisted and sounds blurred, transporting him through the fabric of time. Suddenly, he found himself in an era untouched by synthesizers and digital harmonies. It was the year 1741, the time when Joseph II of the Holy Roman Empire was born. Confused and disoriented, Benjamin took in the unfamiliar surroundings. The air was filled with the scent of horse-drawn carriages, and the cobblestone streets echoed with the clatter of footsteps in traditional attire. The towering structures of Vienna looked different, as if frozen in a historical painting. As Benjamin grappled with the reality of his situation, he soon realized that he was no longer in the 21st century. Panic and awe intertwined within him, but his musician's spirit prevailed. Rather than succumbing to the strangeness of the past, he saw an opportunity to explore a world where musical notes were written with quills, not keyboards. In the midst of this historical epoch, Benjamin navigated the winding alleys and grand palaces of Vienna, eager to understand the musical landscape of the 18th century. He discovered the Baroque elegance of orchestral compositions and the intricate craftsmanship of harpsichords. The streets resonated with the melodies of Mozart and Haydn, composers who were yet to be born in his original timeline. Joseph II, the future ruler of the Holy Roman Empire, was still a child, oblivious to the visitor from another time. Benjamin observed the society of the period, marveling at the cultural richness and the strict etiquette that governed daily life. As he adapted to the customs of the era, he became a musical sojourner, merging his avant-garde sensibilities with the classical tapestry of the past. Word of the mysterious musician spread through Vienna like wildfire. Aristocrats and commoners alike flocked to witness Benjamin's unorthodox performances, where the clash of eras created a symphony that transcended time itself. His music became a bridge between epochs, a testament to the timeless power of artistic expression. As Benjamin immersed himself in this unfamiliar world, he also grappled with the challenges of existing in a time where his very existence defied explanation. Yet, through the challenges, he found unexpected allies among the musicians and patrons who recognized the magic in his music. Little did Benjamin know that his journey through time would not only leave an indelible mark on the pages of history but also reshape his own understanding of music and humanity. In the crucible of the past, a modern musician discovered that the language of melody could transcend the boundaries of time, connecting hearts across centuries.
