Set in the Shadow Slave world...a time before Sunny was born...this story follows a simple soldier who must survive in a dystopian, apocalyptic landscape where magic and gun warfare collide. In a far-off Quadrant known as North America, a young soldier named Hope is 16 years old when he gets infected by the Nightmare Spell. He passed! But...he feels a bit scammed...? A flaw that makes him fade from people's memories... A cursed attribute that makes him remember everything endlessly in eternal wakefulness... It's as if the Spell is twisting his future and existence into an almost improbable one. All he has ever known his purpose to be was to serve as a simple soldier. Not too powerful. But not so weak either. And maybe, just maybe like some others, become an Awakened. Although he never dreamt of being one. Now that his whole life is compromised after his First Nightmare, his first objective is to survive on his own. But as he tries to escape his fate, his actions seem to lead him further from his goal. He struggles against obstacles that slowly grow bigger and out of proportion. Maybe the Dream Realm and the Real World aren't so different than one may think. Hope's journey involves uncovering secrets and gaining knowledge about his true nature and his new role in the world. Is he fit to be a hero? Could he redefine it? *** Please read the READER DISCLAIMER in Volume 0. This is my spin-off novel of "Shadow Slave" by Guiltythree. But please don't expect the same writing style, setting, and characters, especially the main character. This story reveals more about how people/cities/governments operate after the Spell’s arrival. I always find it interesting how maybe one country handles it fairly, but how others handle it with desperation to the point that you question humanity. There will be easter eggs pointing to the original novel either intentional for the plot or unrelated to it, but all for fun. I am a new author so props to all who bear with me and helps me improve my writing. If it is not for you, please don't leave outright hate comments. Eat wassabi instead if you want pain. Critique and advice would be great too. Cover Art: @ellieaedon I will be posting on RoyalRoad.com and on AO3 for some people's preferences.

Do you like guns? Epic sword fights? Random explosions that add nothing to the plot? gambling? hot chicks(or guys, no judgement here)? Novels with months without an update? Well-written/overpowered characters that are forgotten in the next chapter, probably die in some bullsh*t way, and mysteriously come back alive way later? Writing that's so mid it's entertaining and keeps you coming back for more, only to be left with utter disappointment that release dates are sporadic? Yeah? Well, you're a masochist.

Reiji Sato didn’t just beat the world’s hardest game—he conquered it. After three brutal years, 927 rage quits, two dead keyboards, and one dumped girlfriend, he cleared Elysia: Fatebound, a game so punishing it was basically a digital war crime. His reward? A broken ending, no closure, and a glitchy pop-up asking if he wanted to report the game to a “higher power.” Naturally, he said yes. Now he’s stuck inside the game… as an NPC. Stripped of his player status, trapped in a peasant’s body, and forced to spout stock dialogue like a budget side character, Reiji's new life should’ve been game over. But the system forgot one thing: He still has the secret title no one else ever earned—True Player. With developer-level access, partial control over the world’s logic, and a personal vendetta against lazy game design, Reiji’s about to break every rule, shatter every trope, and mod this pixelated purgatory into his playground. The gods made a mistake. They gave the final boss a respawn. Overpowered. Underappreciated. And absolutely done with everyone’s fantasy bullsh*t—this NPC is about to become a legend by accident.

He transmigrated into the world of Bleach, becoming just an ordinary member of the 5th Division. His direct superior? None other than Aizen, the big boss himself. Around him are Aizen’s little fanboys and fangirls, plus a sly snake with squinting eyes all day long. Yet Yoshio wasn’t nervous at all—in fact, he even wanted to befriend them. Because he discovered that he possessed the ability to see into the core of a person’s soul. This wasn’t a Zanpakutō’s Bankai, but a power born from the combined traits of a person’s past, present, and future. As long as someone’s favorability toward him reached eighty, he could permanently use this ability. Perfect. All the well-known figures of the Seireitei, those with spiritual power at the seated officer level—come, be my friends!

A year after transmigrating, Lucas Blade, forced by circumstances to become a trainer, accidentally passed the Champion Exam. Immediately afterward, he announced his retirement on the spot, stating that, having once suffered through the 996 grind, he now just wanted a leisurely and peaceful life. However, just as he invested a huge sum to buy land and planned to build his farm, his long-delayed golden finger (cheat ability) finally arrived. At this time, the Tera orb had not yet been developed, and Sada/Turo had not yet become completely obsessed with the research of Area Zero... On one hand, there’s a special hint system in his chat group secretly helping him grow stronger; on the other, there’s the increasingly bizarre farm, thanks to the random appearances of strange people and Pokémon. On top of that, he still has to deal with the various students with different personalities at Naranja Academy, where he works... From that moment on, Lucas’ peaceful life began to stir with new waves. PS: The setting of this book combines anime and games, with some original elements. The golden finger (cheat ability) is relatively low-key.] Tags: Pokémon, slice of life, making up for regrets, relaxing, heart warming novel

Years later, when he would finally hold the “Lifetime Achievement Award” in his hands, Makoto Yasui would recall one very specific afternoon—the afternoon he was sent flying ten whole meters… By a horse girl. At the time, he had only recently gotten his Central Trainer’s license. Unfortunately, his lack of experience was obvious, and many horse girls turned him down without a second thought. And so, after being rejected yet again, maybe his mind wandered a bit too much. While waiting to cross at a red light, he spotted a child nearly step into oncoming traffic. His body moved before his brain could catch up. The kid was fine. He was not. Because he got hit. Not by a car, but by a horse girl. She had black hair, red eyes, and a matching black tail. And she slammed into him at full sprint. Thanks to years of quiet self-training—secretly guided by memories from a past life—he managed to twist midair and land without too much damage. Still, getting launched like that wasn’t exactly part of his daily routine. The horse girl, on the other hand, was completely panicking. “I-I’m so sorry! Are you hurt?! A-are you okay?!” “I-I'm Kitasan Black! A first-year at Tracen Academy! Pleased to meet you—wait, no, that’s not what I should say right now!” “I—I mean—I’ll take responsibility! I’ll take full responsibility for this!!” That’s how it all began. The girl’s name was Kitasan Black. And this was the start of everything. = = = = Note: Some character backgrounds and settings have been reworked for narrative purposes.
