POSITIVE REVIEW :

Let me start this review by saying that this story has HUGE and blatantly obvious flaws. The most egregious being that nearly all the male characters (including the Main Character) act like the creepily perverted guys you find in Japanese anime. In fact let me quote the second paragraph in the story to give you a taste of what I'm talking about...
"Those upright chimneys, however, reminded Zhang Tie of his p*nis and the black smoke his seminal fluid. They polluted air like how the liquid polluted his underwear. Although he couldn't remember who was in his dream last night, for the third time this week, he could feel something sticky inside his underwear."
... that is in the introduction paragraph for our main character Zhang Tie.
No sh*t.
Aside from that, surprisingly this story does just about everything right. There is good worldbuilding in a steampunkish cultivation world. An interesting power system. The MC doesn't have everything given to him, and really has to work to distinguish himself. He has quite a few moments of real danger that he barely manages to scrape through with intelligence and instinct. No deus ex machina moments or ass pulls.
There is some great Hunter x Hunter exam type situations. The first being a semi-wilderness survival test after just entering the sect, that reminded me a little of Lord of the Flies. Behind the scenes there are political situations as various countries and organizations are in conflict with each other. There are no generic 'Young Master' style antagonists.
The big flaws that leave this with such a garbage rating aren't central to the story in any way. for example one situation that puts people off is
Spoiler
At one point out of nowhere Zhang Tie suddenly gets popular with the ladies despite being an awkward pervert. Then over the course of a couple of chapters he has s*x with hundreds and hundreds of women. It's the only time he even gets even a second glance within the first 400 odd chapters, and right after it's finished he goes to another sect to be the scrub newbie at the bottom of the barrel, and it's never really mentioned again.

These few chapters serve... just zero story purpose, and could quite easily be cut out

[collapse]
Honestly I love this story. It's got some of the absolute best and most interesting plotting and situations in the entire CN industry. Yet the author does his best to shoot himself in the foot, over things inessential to the actual story.
One commonly quoted reason for hating this (according to other reviews) is racism. Honestly, I don't see it. This isn't set on earth, he just sort of borrows bits and pieces from it, and none of the races and sects are explicitly stated to conform to any in our world. Just think of it this way. The author of this work has a small, almost miniscule penis. So he's overcompensating in the story to make the MC better than him in real life, including having slightly better talent because of genetics.

*************************************************************
NEGATIVE REVIEW :

If you ever wondered what kind of novel written by a perverted racist Chinese would look like, look no further just read Castle of Black Iron.

All the males are potential rapists including the MC and all the females are objects to be used and abused.

A warning to the readers masturbation is a prominent focus of this story as is racism.

Disgusting.

P.s: Also the oldest abacus discovered is Sumerian in origin.

Moon-Hunters Pack lands, Blue Ridge Mountains, North Carolina, 2018
 
            The Moon-Hunters pack was gathered in a small clearing near the base of the mountain range. The prospect of a full moon pack run had all the wolves buzzing with excess energy. The 350,000 acres of territory the pack occupied included several small towns. The pack was spread out throughout the territory with the pack house located at the center. Week long patrols were sent out along the edges of the territory to scout for rival packs and rogues. Other than patrols the pack only gathered when necessary. Full moon runs were the only time they came together to truly enforce pack bonds. Finally, after 16 years the Moon-Hunters alpha was back on pack lands with her two pups. Excited talking filled the air of the clearing as they watched the pack Beta, Jaime McKenzie, and the pack Delta, Anastasia Blake, make their way into the clearing. Jaime wasn't a tall nor heavily muscular man. At 5'6 with a lean, almost skinny, frame most people didn't find him very threatening. His shaggy blonde hair and chocolate colored eyes helped to make him that more deceiving. In truth, he was quick footed, very skilled fighter. Anastasia wasn't far behind him in terms of fighting skills. Though it was her quick thinking and improvisation that made her deadly. The 5'2 green eyed redhead wasn't one to be messed with.
"Quiet down!" Jaime bellowed.
     The pack fell silent immediately aside from a few rowdy pups that were quickly shushed by their parents. They followed Jaime and Anastasia's gaze towards the hunting trail that lead into the clearing. The pack followed their Beta and Delta's lead, taking a knee and exposing their necks. A universal sign of submission to a wolf. Into the clearing walked a large charcoal grey, blue eyed wolf followed by two identical lanky pups. The pups pitch black fur kept them hidden in the shadows, their electric blue wolf eyes giving them away. As one the three wolves shifted, and within seconds a woman and two teenagers stood before the pack. The only difference between the teenagers was that one was male and the other female. Other than this they were identical like most twin wolves born of a royal blood line. Bloodlines that were said to connect them to the moon goddess herself. The woman approached the pack. Her blonde hair stood in contrast to the typical genetics most wolves of the Hunter blood line adopted. Her hazel eyes and almost 6' frame were typical of the Hunter bloodline. It showed her mix heritage from another lost royal bloodline. The woman was intimidating. She oozed an alpha's power. Her pups on the other hand were without a doubt of the Hunter bloodline. While both were lean young alphas the male pup was more muscular and slightly taller, standing at close to 6'2 to his sister's 5'11. Both had black hair cut short but long enough to reach the brows above their hazel eyes. The male was confidant where his sister was timid.
"Rise!" The woman's voice echoed.
     The pack rose excitedly, quiet conversation already flowing through them. They watched the Alpha motion her pups forward until they stood beside her.
     "It's been a long while since the Hunter family has been on pack soil! I'm excited to return home and show my children where our pack has called home since we arrived on these shores! For those of you who don't know who I am I will tell you! I am Isabelle Hunter! Daughter of Marcus Hunter and Racheal Cruz! These are my pups, Beth and Lucien Hunter!" Isabelle's voice carried through the clearing.
     She motioned to each of her pups as she introduced them, and both tilted their heads in acknowledgment. A smile curved at Isabelle's lips as she let her gaze wonder over the pack. 300 wolves she was responsible for. Pride swelled in her chest.
"Enough talk! We've gathered to celebrate and run! Let's hunt!" She yelled.
     The pack immediately shifted into wolves, pelts varying in colors. Isabelle, in her wolf form, tilted her head back and howled. The pack echoed her howl and the hunt was on.
     Beth let her paws carry her through the trees as she followed close to her brother, Lucien. She enjoyed running in either form, though as a wolf it was more rewarding. She heard the thudding of paws from the pack behind her. A thrill of excitement rushed through her. It was the first pack run her and Lucien had ever taken part in. She looked forward to the shaggy blonde wolf and the small red wolf that were running alongside her mother. Jaime and Anastasia were their names if she recalled correctly. They'd been running the pack in her mother's absence and have done an excellent job as far as Beth could tell. A nose nudged her flank almost causing her to lose her footing. She growled at her brother immediately who responded with an amused rumble.
"This is amazing!" Lucien's voice echoed through the pack's mental link.
     Laughing echoed back from the pack in response to Lucien's excited remark. Beth silently agreed with him. She let her wolf have full reign and was content to just enjoy the night running.
                                                                                              ****
     The night had been long, and Beth had never felt so exhausted. She followed behind her mother and brother in human form into the pack house. It was a two-story house that the Pack's Alpha called home. There were multiple other houses and buildings set up around the pack house. The pack Beta and Delta's families made their homes here alongside the Alpha. They made their way into the house. The house opened immediately into a living room on the right and a large dining room with a massive looking table on the left. The kitchen was separated by a breakfast bar from the living room and by a half wall from the dining room. There was a hallway just passed the living room that they followed their mother down. A few feet before they reached the stairs at the end of the hallway was a room on the right. It was the master bedroom with its own bathroom and what looked like a walk-in closet.
    "This is my room. You two can hash out who gets first pick of the three bedrooms upstairs. They all share a bathroom. The moving trucks will be here later today." Their mother said before she disappeared into her room. Jaime immediately raced up the stairs calling dibs on the largest room. Beth followed at a leisurely pace behind. She ended up taking the bedroom at the back end of the house. It wasn't to small. Enough room for her bed, dressers, and her computer desk. She was drawn to the room due to the medium sized bay window that looked out towards the mountain range. She spotted a hammock tied between two of the trees at the back of the house. A nap outside didn't sound to bad to her.
                                                                                                ****
     She groaned as she stretched her arms above her head. Her nap in the hammock hadn't lasted long maybe three to four hours before the sound of cars driving down the long gravel road woke her. Beth took a long look around her new bedroom finally put together after spending all afternoon moving their things into the house. Her bed, covered with charcoal grey sheets and a black comforter, was situated against the wall opposite from the door and directly across from the bay window. Her dresser was positioned long the wall to her right with a few feet separating it from the closet. Her TV and PS4 sat on top of the dresser. At the foot of her bed along the wall sat her desk and computer chair with her computer already set up. Her sketchbooks were already scattered atop her desk. Beth gave a satisfied sigh.
"I'm taking a shower and headed to bed! Don't wake me up for dinner!" She yelled down the hall.
"Alright! Make sure your stuff is packed for school tomorrow!" Beth heard her mother yell from downstairs.
     After a steaming hot shower, she made herself comfortable in bed and drifted off into a dream filled sleep.

A disgraced Angel that had lost the favor of the gods she served so loyally for centuries because she'd fallen in love with the fierce, she-wolf she was meant to kill. Being cast from the heavens meant little to her so long as she had her wolf by her side. A little more than 7 centuries ago Kristina Fàelàn lost the very same wolf she'd given up everything for at the hands of human hunters, Arcadians. Now alone the Fallen Angel was lost letting her need for vengeance lead her life until the very people she swore vengeance against turn her on a different path. 

      Beth Hunter is a 16-year-old alpha wolf pup trying to learn how to run her pack, the Moon-Hunters, at the hands of her mother. Her twin brother doesn't take much in life seriously and finds himself getting into trouble often, even though he's expected to run the pack along side his sister. Strange dreams of a different time have been plaguing Beth all her life, and she's hoping moving back to her pack's old territory will put a stop to the dreams. 

     When hazel eyes meet honey gold will a forbidden love that was lost so long ago rekindle, or will fears of history repeating hold them back?



 He suddenly regained consciousness. He was surprised and thought. 

 ‘Wasn’t I killed how can I still be alive?’ 

 He was confused he slowly opened his eyes, but he was surprised from what he saw he was at a place which was too familiar to him. No matter how many years passed he couldn’t forget the place he disappeared from. 

‘Is this a dream? Am I really seeing this?’ 

He looked around to see if it was the same place the same as before nothing much change there are just a little less tree remaining all was same. 

“It’s been 400 years but the trees are same, huh.” 

Suddenly a thought struct his head and his face grew pale. 

‘Does that mean my family is dead too?’ 

He got worried and started running out of the forest, after some time he finally saw the road, and he found a bus stop on the road he went there and sat on a bench at the bus stop. 

‘I wonder what currency is used after 400 years, oh do I have money?’ 

 When he looked down, he saw the same cloths he wore when he was transported to Hell, he searched his pocket and found his purse which contained everything he had with him surprisingly nothing much happened to the money even after 400 years it was still the same. It was weird, but he didn’t have the time to think about that. Right now, he needed to somehow find his house he knew the 400 years he spent in that hell was real but it was still difficult for him to accept that his parents were dead. 

Right then a bus came and stopped he got up and sat on an empty seat at the back the bus was relatively empty there were only 5 passengers in total. There was news going on the tv that was on the bus, so he focused on the tv and tried to know how much has the world changed. 

There was date and time mentioned in the bottom left corner of the tv screen. It was 2020 June 18 now the day he disappeared was 2018 June 18. He was elated by the fact that it has just been 2 years since he disappeared, so it meant his parents were alive. 

Soon news began a reporter was shown holding a mic and started speaking. 

 “Good morning, I am jin hae reporting live from Heohyeon-Dong, and I am currently standing in front of a recent dungeon which is reportedly a level 6 dungeon. Level 8 is not the highest reported dungeon but it is a high-level dungeon today, the Bloodlust the top 10th guild in the Korea will be clearing this dungeon. The one in charge of this mission is Ki Hwan, he will be the captain, of the 2nd squad in this raid. Let us welcome Ki Hwan for an exclusive interview with us” said the reporter 

“Dungeon?” Kang-ho mumbled with a frown. 

“Hello, Mr. Ki Hwan thank you for joining us and letting us interview you” said the reporter. 

“It's my pleasure Ms. Jin Hae” said Ki Hwan. 

“Tell us more about the dungeon and how are you going to handle it.” said the reporter. 

“As you know this is a level 6 dungeon there will be many high level monsters inside the dungeon we have prepared 2 tanks 4 dps 4 long range damage dealers and 2 healers. We are sure we can complete this dungeon by our team of 12.” said Ki Hwan. 

“That is a super strong line-up I hope you clear the dungeon without a loss.” said the reporter. 

“Thank you I will be taking my leave” said ki hwan. 

“Thank you for joining us, this is jin hae reporting from Heohyeon-dong live in front of the level 6 dungeon we will be right back after a short commercial break” said the reporter. 

‘What the hell is going on? What dungeon what are they talking about are they talking about a game?’ kang-ho frowned while thinking. 

“Wow Bloodlust are going to complete a level 6 dungeon this is so exiting” said the boy in front of kang-ho. 

“What’s so cool about clearing a level 6 dungeon recently Pride guild the number one guild in Korea cleared the first level 9 dungeon Pride is the only guile which cleared level 9 dungeon in Korea.” said his friend. 

“Man, I wish I can be a hunter one day I will alone clear all the dungeons in the world” said the boy. 

“Hump, you think being hunter is that easy 5 out of 10 people die who goes to clear the tutorial dungeon, you can’t be a hunter if you can’t compete tutorial dungeon. If being a hunter had been that easy wouldn’t all the people of the world be a hunter?” said his friend. 

“That’s true” said the boy. 

“Hey, kids do you know what the dungeons are and how they appeared?” asked kang-ho 

Both the boys made a disgusted expression like they say some mental patient. 

 ‘How can a normal person not know anything about dungeons, he must be some kind of mental patient better not provoke him. God knows what he may do to us if we made him angry.’ they thought as they looked at the bumpkin. 

When they looked at his they saw emotionless eyes which scared them. 

-GULP- they gulped in a low voice. 

“Of course, Mister we know about dungeons it appeared first on June 18, 2018. If one dungeon is not cleared within 6 days of its appearance the monsters sealed inside the dungeon will pour out and, in our world, and try to destroy everything in its path. First, when the dungeon appeared the world didn’t understand what it does so many people died after the dungeon break happened. When you enter the portal, you end up in different space which is filled with monsters and if you kill the monster you get exp which helps you level up. if you clear a dungeon you get equipment, and after clearing the dungeon stays there for 24 hours during this time you can hire laborers to help you plunder all the minerals, herbs and precious body parts of the monsters that are present in that dungeon and then you can sell that at a price in any hunter related shop all over the country and earn a lot of money.” Said the boy. 

‘hummm, something weird happened when I disappeared from this world does my disappearance have anything to do with the dungeon appreaing?’ kang-ho thought.

18 years old Yi Kang-Ho's life was perfect until he was sucked into a portal which transported to a Hell like world. In this world he had fight creatures, monsters, demons. He risked his life for 400 years and one faithful day he managed to somehow escape the Hell and came back to earth but even after spending 400 years there only 2 years had gone by on Earth.

Earth was totally different from before dungeons appeared everywhere, Hunters became the new government of the new world and the world became dog eat dog world.

Follow the journey of Kang-Ho in this new world filled with adventures.

June, 2018. At Jimmy Hunter's apartment.
Jim paced around, his heart beating in his throat. Twenty-four hours. If he couldn't come up with a solution in twenty four hours, it was all going to be over faster than it had started. And Jimmy didn't like to lose.
Especially not to an idiot, who also happened to be his father.
His breaths became heavier by the minute as he grumbled to himself. He paced around in circles, his mood darkening as random thoughts flooded his brain. None of his ideas at the moment were useful though. He had already tried everything.
Nearby, two familiar figures sat stiffly, their expression stony as they watched the young master with hawk eyes. One was Jim's best friend, Hartley Greene. The other his butler, Byeong Park. They both glanced at each other every few seconds, and then returned to looking at Jim. The atmosphere of the room was turning grimmer with each of Jimmy's step.
Finally, Park sighed.
And that was a mistake.
Jimmy quickly stopped in his tracks and turned back to glare at the old man, as if the sigh had disrupted his thoughts. Hartley rolled his eyes at him, whereas Park looked back unimpressed. Finally, he coughed.
"If looks could kill, Jimmy Hunter," Park chided, "I'd be dead when you were five. Now that doesn't help solve the problem, Jim. Stop scowling and think harder."
Jimmy's face darkened, and he wanted to lash out. He couldn't though. Clenching his fists, he returned to pacing around again, this time with bigger, harder steps.
After a few minutes, Hartley spoke.
"Have you contacted Leah?"
Jim didn't stop, but nodded in response.
"I couldn't reach her mobile, but I left her a message. I doubt she'll return the call though."
"Hm."
There was silence again.
Jimmy loosened his tie, and finally pulled off his vest. He was the C.E.O. of the Hunter Corporation and lived and breathed mostly in three-piece suits. Right then though, the suit suffocated him. He couldn't breathe anymore. So he pulled off the coat, the vest, the tie and threw them all on the couch where his friends sat.
He walked briskly for a few more minutes. When he couldn't think of anything anymore, he finally groaned.
"Guys, I'm going to lose my inheritance, aren't I?" he said, and flopped beside Hartley and Park. He closed his eyes in distress and leaned into the couch. It was soft. He wanted to cry.
Park extended his hand to pat him lightly on the shoulder.
"Don't lose hope, Jim," he said, "You still have twenty four hours. I've seen you accomplish bigger and better things in half that time."
"I'd like to see myself get married in that time, old man."


Jimmy's tone was resigned and Byeong Park did not know what to do. This time, Senior Mr. Hunter, Jim's father had made the perfect plan. Jimmy Hunter was the C.E.O. of Hunter Corporation, one of the most powerful companies in the country of Isekai. Senior Hunter was its Chairman. The father and son had never gotten along, really, and in the thirty years of Jim's life, they had quarrelled more than they had talked. Jim was sure his old man hated him, even though Park had spent a quarter of a century trying to convince him otherwise. This time, though, Senior Hunter had outwitted Jimmy.
The old man was about to retire, and he had therefore brazenly told his son that if he didn't see Jim married by the time he was thirty one, Jim would never own the Hunter Corporation. That had been a scary day at the Hunter estate. Both the parties had stood in the hall, glaring murderously at each other. Jimmy's face had distorted to the point that he had looked like some demon.
Park flinched from the sheer memory of it.
To any ordinary man, this command would have been easy to adhere to. But not to Jimmy Hunter. He had drop-dead gorgeous looks and money enough to buy the world, yes, but what he thoroughly lacked were skills when it came to women. He had dated only twice in his entire life, and both the relationships had ended within a week. He was popular with the ladies, but only from afar. Nobody knew about his personal life, mostly because it didn't exist.
It had now been a month since the marriage condition had been imposed.
Naturally, Jim had been unable to find a suitable bride. And he was turning thirty one the day after tomorrow.
Whether he would find a bride until then… well.
"Impossible," Park breathed.
They had been trying relentlessly day and night to come up with a plan and had done almost everything a man in dire need of a woman would do. From contacting ex-girlfriends to coaxing his secretary (who turned out to be already married, by the way), there was no scheme that they had not implemented. Jim had even made a profile on several match-making sites. It was just that… sometimes he didn't like the girl, and most times, they didn't like him.
Marriage was an impossible deal!
And he simply didn't want to marry a missus from a rich household, because no matter what, the marriage was going to be on contract. His father wanted his marriage to last at least one year, and that was exactly when Jimmy planned on terminating the nuptial. That was one reason he still hadn't found a girl. Nobody wanted a relation that determinedly would last a year alone.
As Jimmy breathed deeply, his eyes closed and back still leaning into the couch, Hartley stood up. He thought for a while, put his hands in his pockets and then, exhaled noisily.
"You know what I've realized, Hunter?" he frowned, "We've been playing fair till now. Nothing about this deal is fair though. Your father knows you don't date, but he wants you to get a woman in a month. I've had this idea before, but I still wanted you to try your hands at reasonable means. Now, you don't have a choice."
Jim opened his eyes.
"You mean you had a backup, all this while and you didn't tell me?" Jimmy sounded annoyed.
Hartley sighed.
"Yes, because as I said, it's foul play. Here's what I suggest. You offer money, get married."
Jimmy rolled his eyes, whereas Mr. Park flinched. What was up with the kids of this generation?!
Jim closed his eyes again, "You don't think I've done that? I've gotten more water splashed on my face for it than I drink in a month."
"Yes, I know. That's what I was coming to. Marry someone in need. The woman won't refuse the money if she desperately needs it."
Jimmy suddenly fell into thought.
"You mean, like a poor person?" he asked.
Hartley nodded.
"But isn't that stupid? Why would I willingly let a gold digger stay by my side? And that too for a year?"
"Who said you have to stay together? Arrange for something. Go abroad. Make her visit her parents. There are a thousand excuses for things like that!"
"My old man would see through it at once."
Hartley huffed.
"Well, do you have a better idea? Because it seems to me that all of this plotting is just to insult you."
"It is," Jimmy nodded in agreement.
Mr. Park wanted to smack them both. Why was it so hard for these kids to understand that old Mr. Hunter might just want to secure a future for his company, while he was still alive? Or just want a grandchild, like any other old man?
Well, he had tried explaining it to them before. He wasn't wasting his breath now.
Beside him, Jim and Hartley continued.
"Considering I do go ahead with this plan," Jimmy contemplated, "Where would I find a poor woman?"
"We could go to some cooperative societies and help organizations. They are formed to support poor people."
"And what would be the disadvantages of such a relation?"
"Well… you wouldn't be able to introduce her publicly, for one. It would be insulting."
"I don't intend to either way."
"Your old man would be furious though."
Hartley chuckled at the thought. Imagine, old Mr. Hunter's face as he saw his poor, bottom-of-the-barrel daughter-in-law. The man as such looked down on people lesser in status or money. He would simply blast off.
Jimmy's eyes suddenly gleamed. It was as if his and Hartley's thoughts had been in coherence right then. He opened his eyes, looked at Hartley and grinned.
"I'll do it!" he said.
His friend raised his brows.
Jimmy explained, "It's the easiest way to get back at Senior Hunter. Bring home an improper woman, make her live amongst us for a year, father will simply explode. I might not even have to stay married for a long time! The old man would definitely not tolerate it."
"Jimmy, there's still the point that you'd have to live with her."
"I'll arrange for something. Overwork. Stay at office. That'd be fine. Imagine, what an insult it would be to my father! And how easily I could get back at him! Hart, you're a genius."
Jimmy got up excitedly and was about to hug his friend when Park coughed.
The two men looked at him instantly.
"You're forgetting the woman, boys," he said, "You'll be doing this to get back at your father, but the one you'd really hurt is the girl. Can you live with that?"
Jimmy and Hartley shrugged nonchalantly.
"I'll pay," Jim announced and the two men embraced.
Park rolled his eyes. If he didn't know better, he would have thought the two were brothers. Well, for what it was worth, he hoped they would find their woman, and she would kick Jim's ass! This brat could really be selfish at times.
Meanwhile Jim congratulated himself, happy to have devised a plan. This poor, bottom-of-the-barrel woman was just perfect. He'd get married and get back at his father too.
Ah, his perfect bride.
He was coming soon!

Mr. Jimmy Hunter is in a fix. He is the C.E.O. of the prestigious Hunter Corporation, currently at loggerheads with his father, Senior Mr. Hunter, the Chairman. Jimmy is the only heir, and yet his father refuses to grant him his inheritance. Unless, of course, he fulfills one condition - gets married before his next birthday! 
The clock is ticking, and the young master still hasn't found a bride. There's only twenty four hours left, and yet, there are plans to be made. Until with his two best friends, Jimmy comes up with an idea. One that would get him his 'perfect' bride, and help him get back at his father too! If only the bride would agree though...
Enter Miya!
She's strong, hard headed, foul mouthed and comes with a kid! And there's nothing that pisses her off more than an arrogant rich brat, who also happens to be a pervert. Oh well, she would teach him a lesson!

"Have you heard of his story?"
"Whose story?" asked the aristocrat with a silver wig to the man sitting across him. The nobleman seemed increasingly nervous as he talked.
"The story of the Caribbean King."
"This part of the ocean belongs to Scotland, and there's only one king in England. King George is his name."
The aristocrat valiantly defended his country, but the bearded man opposite him knew that he wasn't too confident. Ignoring the aristocrat, and like a graceful whale cruising the oceans, he said,
"He goes by many names. The slaves from the New World call him the Freedom Fighter. That's because he attacks slave ships, and sets the slaves free. When he plunders merchant ships, he would only take their possessions but not hurt a single soul. Some merchants even complimented his ways. The Royal Navy deems him their worst nightmare. In these ten years alone, he's sunken at least a dozen navy battleships, and he's even managed to evade a coordinated attack between the navy and pirate-hunters. Oh, before I forget, the pirate hunters call him the Pirate-Hunter Killer. Whenever they see his black flag, even the bravest pirate-hunter goes into hiding."
The man then paused for a while.
"Do we have any liquor here?"
The aristocrat was ungratified that the bearded man had dominated the conversation. Even though four muscular bodyguards were behind him, he still felt as if he was trapped in a cage with a ferocious beast. After a while, the aristocrat loosened his collar, his face looking pale and nervous. He wanted to remind the bearded man that he was merely a criminal here. However, he quickly changed his mind.
"Get him a glass of tawny port."
"Seven years ago, he led his men in an attack against Nassau's Roger Wood. During that battle, he managed to destroy Roger Wood's ship and turn Nassau into a land of the free."
"Land of the free? We reclaimed the place three years ago."
The aristocrat smirked, finally finding something to gain the upper hand in the conversation.
"You are right. The navy provided immunity to all the pirates of Nassau except for him. You guys even tried to convince a mighty black-market merchant, which was also his most trusted ally to betray him. I must say, the real reason why the navy won the battle was because the man gave up in the end."
The aristocrat was speechless. Roger Wood was a good friend of the royalty, and even though he was rescued from a battle seven years ago, his life had turned for the worse since then. Whenever the name of the person was mentioned in front of him, he would start shivering in fear. Three years ago, Roger Wood was asked to become the navy's consultant for a reconquest of Nassau. However, he had a grim outlook about the future. He once told the royalty that even if the navy managed to reclaim Nassau, they would have pay a hefty price for it.
However, Jackdaw left Nassau the night before the battle broke out. With Carina's help, the navy managed to reclaim Nassau without shedding a single drop of blood. Roger Wood was appointed the new governor-general of Nassau, and Carina became his special consultant.
"I heard his achievements have spread as far as London, Paris, and even all the way to Lisbon. he has become the talk of town. King George even hired someone to learn more about this legendary figure. What about you? What kind of person do you think he is?"
The bearded man lifted his head and looked at the aristocrat seriously, who quickly looked away, trying not to make any eye-contact. In that split second, the aristocrat realized that his actions only indicated that he was the weaker one here. To protect the royalty's honor, he quickly looked back into the bearded man's eyes.
"Only fools and plebeians will address him at the Caribbean King. Some are even dumb enough to believe that he's under the protection of Thetis herself, the Goddess of the Ocean! They also say he has the ability to control storms, and that he's actually immortal. To me, he's just another rotten pirate. When he's sent to the gallows, I will watch him struggle for dear life. By that time, I will know if he is truly immortal or not."
After the aristocrat was done talking, his face turned grave all of a sudden.
"Captain Zhang Heng! I now officially arrest you for crimes not limited to piracy, murder, plunder, assaulting the navy, and contempt of the King of Scotland. You will be tried in London. You will not be represented in any way whatsoever."
After that, the aristocrat stood up and waved his men over to apprehend Zhang Heng.
"I don't think I can wait that long."
Zhang Heng calmly glanced at his watch. The hour hand had completed 102 cycles, which meant he had been in this world for 3,900 days. After all these years in the game, he could no longer differentiate between the real world and the constructed one.
"I have asked many people about you. Everyone said that you're from the most powerful family in the New World. Good. I'll need you to tell everyone what you're about to witness. My request is very simple. I would like you to drop all charges against Anne and Jackdaw's pirates. You'll also have to promise me that the navy will no longer deem Jackdaw as a target. Otherwise, I might just enter your bedroom at night without you realizing it."
"Do you the slightest idea of what you are talking about? How dare you threaten me when I'm about to arrest you?! I was only so polite because of my good upbringing, but it doesn't mean I can't play the bad guy too."
Once the royalty was finished, he signaled his two guards with the eye. Like mindless androids, they put their guns away at the same time and walked towards Zhang Heng with curled fists. On the other hand, Zhang Heng was still sitting calmly on their chair. However, right before the guards could land their punches on him, he disappeared into thin air. 
Zhang Heng's vision blackened, and he heard an echo. It was the sound of a familiar voice.
[Your time to return has come. The mission is complete…]
[You have completed Black Sail, your fourth round of the game. You will now be sent back to the real world…]
....
"Hehe! You look like shit. Just like the other player."
The bartender poured a glass of whiskey with her masterful hands and pushed the drink over to Zhang Heng.
"I like what you are right now. It looks like you have lots of stories to tell me. I must say that it's hard for a woman to resist a man like you."
Zhang Heng grabbed the glass, gulped down its contents, and asked, "What time is it now?"
His current voice and younger body took him by surprise, and he wasn't used to it.
"Welcome back to 21st of January, the year 2018. You can check your phone if you don't believe me. Or, tomorrow morning's news will tell you anyway."


Growing up with eccentric materialistic parents who left him in the care of his grandfather for a job overseas, Zhang Heng had learned to adapt and be unfettered by the oddities and challenges in life. But he would soon learn the baffling truth about the world he thought he knew when one day at midnight time froze and he found himself in a world so quiet and still it was deafening. That night, he discovered that he had 24 hours more than everybody else and thus, marked the beginning of his adventures. The mysteries surrounding his newfound ability only deepened when a strange old man claimed to have given Zhang Heng that ‘gift of time’ and recruited the young man to participate in a cryptic ‘life-changing’ game on his behalf. Little did Zhang Heng know that accepting those terms meant embroiling himself in many versions of reality and exposing himself to the hidden secrets of the world—a decision he could never undo.

'Will I ever break past the E rank and enter the D rank?' Evan thought with a sigh.

He had just finished clearing the E Rank dungeon with a party of 4 other E ranks. His strength was… Adequate for an E rank, but nothing extraordinary. He awakened the most common ability 'Enhanced Strength'

Evan entered the 'Freelance Guild' that was for hunters who couldn't get into any privately owned guilds and sold parts of monsters and minerals to earn a living. Only being able to clear a E rank dungeon with 4 other E rankers, he barely made a living off of $50,000 USD a year. Living as a hunter in New York City, $50k a year was jackshit when putting in apartment rent and healing potions into the mix. Let alone everything else.

Evan was originally a Canadian living in Ontario with below average grades. He happened to awaken in his fourth year of highschool just before his graduation. And since his grades couldn't get him into any university OR college, he decided to move to America's dungeon hotspot, New York City. 

He was also turning 20 in 2020 and had only been a hunter for just under two years, initially coming to NYC in 2018. 

Evan approached the receptionist desk of the Freelance Guild and put three goblin horns on the desk.

"Slow day?" The kind old lady said behind the desk.

"Yeah." Evan sighed exhausted. He was fairly tall, 6'3.
Evan ruffled his right hand through his short black hair in hope to relieve some of the mental stress he had pent up. 

The kind old lady took the three goblin horns and said "$20 for each goblin horn for a total of $60. Since you're an E rank hunter, you'll be exempted from any tax." she said transferring $60 to his bank account.

At least the government knew how broke most E rank hunters were.

"There we go, all done. You should receive your money soon. Be careful out there alright Evan?" she smiled warmly at Evan. Knowing the handsome young man before her for just over a year, she had grown to be attached to him and so didn't want him to over exert himself and find himself gravely injured in a dungeon.

"Yeah I will don't worry Martha" Evan chuckled and left the guild hall.

Evan was fairly handsome. He was the type of handsome that people presumed he was a hunter higher than an E rank. But once they found out he was actually a E rank hunter, everyone who displayed previous interest in him either mocked him, pitied him, or ignored him. Ignoring him being the most common and mocking him from afar being the 2nd most.

It was already almost night time and it took Evan 20 minutes before reaching his apartment.

Entering it, he was met with a small and clean one bedroom apartment. 

Evan got himself settled and took a well deserved shower. 

After dressing and leaving the washroom, Evan began to think.

'Do I sleep or watch something first? Nah, I gotta get up early for a dungeon to make up for today's shitty pay.' Every E rank hunter was recommended a minimum time frame of 2 days rest between each dungeon raid but with today's earnings, he couldn't afford that 2 day break.

Evan crashed on his bed and closed his eyes before hearing what sounded like a dinging noise.

Thinking that someone was ringing his doorbell he opened his eyes but what he saw made his heart jump.

"What the hell?" Evan whispered seeing the screen in front of him. Reading the slightly transparent grey screens white text, his eyebrows could help but raise more and more.

[Congratulations user Evan Fal for completing your 100th dungeon. The 'Hunters System' is now being bonded to you.]  

Sitting up, Evan thought 'Is this a feature to hunting I didn't know about?'

Evan quickly dismissed that idea because there was no way in hell he wouldn't know about something like this.

[10%...]

[30%...]

[70%...]

[The System has successfully been integrated. A beginners gift box has been given to the host.]

"A gift box?" Evan muttered before seeing a new screen pop up over the old one.

[A Beginners Gift Box has been awarded. Would you like to open? Y/N]
"This must be a double awakening right? What else could this be?" Evan whispered while rubbing his chin with his right hand. His heart started to beat in excitement if this was the case. After all, double awakenings were one in a million! 

Evan clicked the 'Y' button and the screen closed followed by a new screen.

[The gifts have been deposited into the inventory.]

[The Host has unlocked the ability 'Infinite Armory']

[The Host has gained 1 Class Option]

'Class option? Like a mage or an assassin?' Evan thought.

"Uh… System. Could I see my class options?" Evan said, a bit embarrassed.

Suddenly, all the screens in front of Evan closed and a new screen opened. 

(AN: The boosts are the classes initial advantages and the skills are class exclusives.)
---------------------
Warrior:
Berserker Ability (increase all stats by 100% for one minute. - 10 health for every second activated
+10 Stamina Boost
+15 Strength Boost
Assassin:
Presence Deletion (Complete erase one's presence. Lasts for 50 seconds. 3 minute cooldown) (variable)
+20 Stamina Boost
+5 Awareness Boost

Tank:

+25 Endurance Boost
Mage:
Skill: Magician's Aura (gain 10% spells boost for the next 20 seconds. 3 minute cooldown) (variable)
+15 mana boost
+10 stamina boost

Evan didn't have to think too long before knowing that he wanted to choose the Warrior class.

Evan liked to fight head on with his opponents, it made him feel like he was actually fighting instead of, well, playing it safe from a distance. 

Assassin was nice and all but still, he just preferred the warrior class. 

Evan clicked on the warrior class where he was met with a 'Are you sure?' type question. Answering yes, he immediately felt that his body became stronger. His lean muscles that were being developed from years of fighting became more defined and powerful. But instead of feeling energy from the +10 stamina boost he just got, he felt strangely tired. 

He laid on his bed and thought 'I can always look at my inventory and stats in the morning' before collapsing on his bed.

-----------

The next morning arrived and rays of lights shun through his blinds and into his eyes.

"God, can the sun get any more annoying?" Evan groaned.

He wanted to sleep for a bit longer, "Was that all a dream?!" Evan shouted sitting straight up on his bed. His eyes were shot open.

"System, open my inventory!" Evan said just barely short of yelling.

A screen appeared in front of Evan making him breath out in relief.

He collapsed back onto his bed, the screen following him down, always remaining half a meter away from his face.

Evan reached out his hands noticing he could actually move the screen around by touching it.

"Cool." Evan said.

Evan wanted to see if he could call upon the system through thought, and it worked.

'System show me my stats'

------------

Evan nodded to himself when he saw his stats. He then opened his inventory and saw that there was a key in one of the many inventory slots.

Clicking on the key, a message appeared in front of him.

[Would you like to enter a custom made E Rank Dungeon] 

"Seriously? This system can even make dungeons? If this is a custom dungeon then that means i'll have access to all its resources for myself and since there are no strong mobs in E rank dungeons, I'll be fine." usually E rank dungeons required a party of 5+ other E rankers. But that was mainly because E rankers were mostly new hunters and almost all hunters were able to climb to D rank after a year. And all E rankers who've had atleast a year's experience could solo a E rank dungeon for one other main reason, E rank dungeons didn't have many mobs nor did it have a dungeon. 

'Equip Basic Armor and weapon' Evan thought. The system was pretty intuitive and he had played a few rpg's in his days so this system thing wasn't completely foreign to him. 

Suddenly, a white light encompassed Evan from head to toe making him look like some divine entity with no physical features. 

The light died out a second later and Evan was covered from head to toe in a light weight armor on his body and head. A long bladed reverse grip dagger held in his right hand.

(AN: Picture of armor and weapon in this sentence comment section. Click on this sentence to open it up.)

"This kind of makes me look like an assassin doesn't it?" Evan looking into a full body mirror. 

"Aren't I supposed to be a warrior…" Evan sighed. He couldn't really complain since he couldn't afford armor with his income and the shortsword he used was pretty much done for. So having a new weapon and an armor on top of that was very much welcomed.

Evan once again opened his inventory and clicked on the key getting the same pop up message from earlier.

[Would you like to enter a custom made E Rank Dungeon?]

Evan clicked on the 'Y' beneath the message and his body gleamed up into a while light and disappeared. From his apartment.

I'm a hunter of the lowest rank. Average in the occupation and barely living on my earnings. I don't understand what I did to deserve this system. But I got it and I'll make use of it. 

========
Inspired by Solo Leveling and novels of the like.
I do have school which is of high priority than this novel so... releases will be scattered but not infrequent.

I live in Canada but this novel takes place in NYC.

I've never been to NYC so please bare with me if I get geological locations wrong, or if I comment about a part of NYC that just doesn't exist or isn't true.

The harem won't be big, four at most. I think four is probably pushing it but yeah...
