(I will write this story in two languages. First, I will write it in my native language, Indonesian, and then I will use a translator to convert it into English.)
Before writing this fanfic, I will rewatch and reread the Douluo Dalu novel first. I want to study the world of Douluo Dalu more deeply, and I will also study the personality and character of Archer. So, Chapter 1 might take a while to be released — maybe around 3–4 weeks. I apologize in advance for the delay. Archer is one of my favorite characters from the Fate series, so I don't want to do this half-heartedly.
The reason I'm writing this fanfic is because I was inspired by other diary-type fanfics, and I thought: what if the one writing the diary isn't someone who knows the storyline? He would only write about daily events — not the future — but rather the present and his past. At that moment, I realized that if I wanted to write about a character's past, I needed a character with a tragic life. The first character that came to my mind wasn't Archer, but Guts from Berserk. But if I were to write about Guts, I'd have to rewatch and reread the Berserk manga — and I don't want to relive that nightmare. So I scrapped that idea and reconsidered which character to write about. That's when I thought of Archer. He's the perfect character: capable of both close and long-range combat, has a tragic past, a strong personality, and most importantly — he can be the ideal househusband.
As for the story, like in the synopsis, Archer will be in the same generation as Tang San. Whether this story will be anti–Tang San or not, I'll decide after I watch and read more of the novel — to see whether he deserves to stand beside Archer as a brother/friend or as an enemy. We'll find out.
Oh, and this story will not be written using AI. For some reason, when I read stories written by AI, they feel empty.
