Stacked Lies: Returned From a False World

Vince had no idea how nineteen years of his life vanished at the hands of a god. Once a man who had transmigrated to another world, he spent decades there, but the magic he dreamed of never existed. His life became dull, colorless, and painfully ordinary. Then, after finding his boss dead, a single voice shattered everything: “WAKE UP, VINCE!” When he opened his eyes, he was eleven again. The world looked the same, but everything was different. His house was burning, his parents were dead, and for the first time, the word magic held real meaning. Artifacts touched by gods granted humans great power, unlocking something called a Stack that could reshape their very existence. After being saved by a church, Vince devoted himself to them, believing he had finally found purpose. But that changed the moment he came face to face with a god. The god looked into him, and discarded him without a word. From that day forward, his world crumbled. His church father stared at him with hollow eyes. His room decayed. His grades fell. The bullying never stopped. Vince was alone, trapped in a life that wasn’t his anymore. Six years passed. At seventeen, broken and barely surviving, Vince decided to clean the church, and found a box with his name on it. Inside was a note written by his dead father. It spoke of a way to gain true power, a power that could change everything .For the first time in years, he felt his excitement grow. This novel draws inspiration from Lord of the Mysteries, Shadow Slave, Elden Ring, and Fight Class 3, with touches from Magic: The Gathering. Expect an original power system built around Stacks, fueled by divine and unholy artifacts gifted by higher beings. The narrative shifts between first-person and third-person limited, exploring a world where humans are fragile and gods are never merciful. This is a work from a developing writer, so don’t expect perfection, but expect heart.
