He had always dreamed of obtaining all the money, power, and women in the world. Unfortunately, with little to no talent or opportunities, he was never able to take initiative. Upon death, he found himself reincarnated in a new RPG-based world.... as a rat. With his only skill "Greed" which grants him the ability to steal others' skills, jobs, and appearances, how far will he go?

Indefinite Hiatus

Many years ago, I wrote this novel after reading Re:Monster and other similar novels. I ran out of that type of content and wanted to find a similar sort of vibe while fixing the issues that I found from reading those novels.

The idea of putting a normal person in a crazy world and making it so that they're willing to do anything to get stronger while having a system was fun since it's a harmless fantasy that you can live through vicariously. I also made main characters that would make you feel better about yourself since they were inherently flawed as human beings and would only grow over time. Although looking back now, I do wish that I made my main characters slightly more likeable from the start.

I finally re-read my novel and although I see some potential, there's just too many flaws in it to continue. I was a lot younger when I wrote this and I've since grown as a person. I feel like my ability to write stories is at a whole new level and my ability to create likeable and realistic characters is also on a completely different level.

Unfortunately, even though I might read novels once in a while, committing to writing a story takes a lot of time and real life is really busy. I don't see myself writing a new novel any time soon. I do have a second novel called "Wish-Fulfilling System" that I wrote a year after this novel but both are on Hiatus. If I were to ever write a novel in the future, I'd want you to learn something so that you could benefit from it in real life.

I just wanted to leave an update that this novel will be on an indefinite hiatus and I likely won't change my mind about it but still am leaving room for myself in case I want to ever improve previous chapter and or just want to write some more chapters on a whim.

For what it's worth, I hope you enjoyed the novel and that it at least provided some form of healthy escape from day-to-day life. See ya :)
