[Nightmare]

Helix didn’t want to become a protagonist. Unfortunately, he was summoned to another world against his will, and a mad god was dead set on making him the hero. After turning down her offer for comical power and a harem-attracting charm attribute, he was left with [zeros] for all of his stats. Worse, he was given a legendary magic class that creates illusions of an enemy’s greatest fear and has a millennium-long history of killing its wielders in the first month. His decision left him defenseless around 49 jealous light novel-reading Earthians with delusional desires to be the protagonist and slaughter their way to godhood. Stranded in a world where [everyone] is one punch man, only his mind and cunning will help him survive. — [Nightmare] explores cliches from a real-world perspective. The mc doesn't want to be a protagonist—that never changes. It's a dynamic that makes this story a satisfying dark comedy and constantly asks interesting questions. This novel examines how the [mindsets] of the weebs shape how they view and interact with it. It covers RPG culture, harem culture, cultivator world mindset, system wish fulfillment, real-world weak to strong complications, and the twisted nature of overpowered characters. Yes: Helix gets satisfyingly op. Note: I had to read a truckload of cliche novels to roast cliches. Especially cultivation cliches—I'm writing a cultivation novel! XD [Sexual content warning]. There are lemons. You're welcome. If you like the comedy aspect, try out my other novel My Yandere Harem for ultimate yandere goodness. —Important Disclaimer— This novel has a heartbreaking scene that highlights the tragic consequences of the cultivator mindset. 80% of the people drop do it because of that chapter. I wouldn't have written it if I knew how adverse WN readers were to character deaths. Please don't drop because of that scene. The decision was bad, but the story isn't. If it hits you like a bag of bricks, it means that my writing was powerful, and there's a lot of potential in the future. Enjoy the novel!

[Cyclone and Blaze]

"Begin!"

"[Cyclone]." Riley whispered.

The shrapnel left behind from [Shatter] flew at Tilo in a torrent.

"Hah! You have a complementary skill set!" Tilo laughed in glee.

Riley narrowed her eyes with an unreadable expression.

Tilo hadn't moved.

He wasn't dodging, either.

The man was standing, surrounded by a barrier, as the rock fragments crashed against it violently.

Helix watched the proceedings with interest.

Riley burst from her position with her sword in her hand.

Most barriers could keep monsters, magic, and projectiles out.

However, it could not stop a human being from entering.

"[Wind Wall]." Riley called out with her left hand pressed forward.

Tilo lifted his hand to block the incoming attack.

Wind Wall created two walls of wind that created a tunnel for Riley to run through.

No projectiles could pass through.

However, it was highly dangerous to use near fire.

Tilo was anticipating the strike to come from in front of him.

The strategy was simple.
