Read this on a whim, it is actually quite fun and the writing is really high quality. The setting is pretty much a rich blacksmith in a modern fantasy world with dungeons that gets suddenly sent to a future with an zombie apocalypse, you get a mc that mixes the powers of his original setting plus some new, shadow monarch-type of skills to the mix, he gets interesting quests and meets survivors, and there's a lot of action, mystery, and so on. the mc is also quite op, which might fancy some, overall a good read, hoping it improves into something better, as a fellow author, i can tell aksha has improved a lot in the last years

This would have been great if he could travel between the two worlds

true, leaving behind that whole other world was a bit of a wasted potential, especially because it sounded interesting

Yeah no, I am not getting paid or am at a gunpoint to make this review. It is genuine and I like the book. I am sure you will too so don’t be a silly goose and read the first few chapters before going past this. Also the author is handsome, smart, rich, and he cares for me a lot and 100% didn’t threaten me for a review. *blink* *blink* Before I leave, something’s been up on my mind for far too long. It’s my most heartfelt thing for you who’s reading this, and that is:

Ok since everyone here just wants to praise this book without any criticism allow me… while the writing is truly good and the story fairly interesting the biggest issue is the lack of any choice the Mc has in literally every scenario he had virtually no freedom to speak of wether it’s these called system forcing him to do things he clearly doesn’t want to or the dumb situations he can’t do anything for himself it seems like a bunch of stuff just thrown in the moment you think he may go about things on his own just to say nah you my Ma have to do whatever you don’t want I have yet to feel like I’m reading a book about a person and not some slave for lack of a better term hope it changes but if by the whole free day this book is out it’s a total drop for me.

Okay, so I read some chapters. The story is quite interesting. The writing quality is top-notch. Since it doesn't have many chapters yet, I don't need to give spoilers. The pacing, characters' interaction, and many others things are wonderful. It's a must-read novel for sure. Give it a try, I'm sure you'll enjoy it to the fullest!

Significantly better than "Rise of the Porter."I'm impressed with the improvement in story telling, and I REALLY want this to work. I look forward to your future improvement The characters are very compelling if a bit rushed. the apocalyptic world is a good place for a powerful character to grow.Very curious how you will develop the story .

This ongoing WebNovel has quickly become a must-read for me. The author's writing style is so engaging and the world they've created is so rich and detailed. The characters are all so unique and I'm constantly intrigued by their individual storylines. I can't wait to see where this story goes and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good ongoing read!

Well what can I say... Akshat does it again. His writing quality is great, and from the current 4k words I read from the novel, it seems like this one is going on a nice direction of a zombie apocalypse. For all the readers of the apocalypse genre or someone looking for a zombie novel, this is it folks!

My Vampire System

The human Race is at war with the Vicious Dalki and when they needed help more than ever, THEY started to come forward. Humans who had hidden in the shadows for hundreds of years, people with abilities. Some chose to share their knowledge to the rest of the world in hopes of winning the war, while others kept their abilities to themselves. Quinn had lost everything to the war, his home, his family and the only thing he had inherited was a crummy old book that he couldn’t even open. But when the book had finally opened, Quinn was granted a system and his whole life was turned around. He completed quest after quest and became more powerful, until one day the system gave him a quest he wasn’t sure he could complete. "It is time to feed!" "You must drink human blood within 24 hours" "Your HP will continue to decrease until the task has been completed" https://discord.gg/kqCxfZF6xH Instagram: JKSManga OTHER WORKS My Werewolf System My Dragon System

The Conquerors Path

Love, lust, and desire... Austin didn't know much about all that in his past life, for he was average in all aspects of his life. A guy who took psychology and math to learn because he couldn't get into biology, the only exciting thing about him being the fact that when he died, he ended up in his favorite eroge game with the task of getting the girls and making the protagonist a loner. Love, like manipulation or time in hell... That was his choice from the God Of Games... The beautiful girls of tsunderes, the sadist, the masochist, the kuudere, and the...yandere, and more. A world with living, breathing women of high status and power who don't like to share... So what happens when Austin goes behind them?... What happens when the Gods that feel nothing feel for him? What happens when he becomes the gigolo of the Gods?... Well, come and find out as he tried to survive among all the crazy women that exist... [There will be a lot of sex scenes, but it might only start after about 60 or so chapters.] (Note: Hey, first of all, this is not a fanfiction! It's true that the beginning of the story and some parts resemble some novels, but none of the characters are related to others from the novel.

Reincarnated With A Summoning System

Being sucked into a fantasy world that nobody leaves doesn't sound half bad to Cain. He was a high school dropout with a drinking problem, living off disability due to his poor health, so it's not like he had much to lose except a few faithful friends he didn't talk to enough. After a long night of drinking, Cain wakes up looking at what he believes to be the character creation screen of one of his beloved virtual reality games, but with no recollection of having purchased it. His unwitting choice to use the Random Character Creation option, unaware that the choice would be irreversible, sends him into this new world as a Puppet Master, a Summoning based class nobody else in the starting zone has ever heard of. But as he soon realizes, this is no game, him and hundreds of others have been brought to another world with no instructions, no clear goals and no way home. It's a second chance to live a good life, but what will Cain be able to make of it?

Armipotent

This is a work of fiction, any names, characters, stories or events, are fictitious! (Even the country in the story is just the author's fantasy as the author never visited those countries in the story) Armipotent is an archaic adjective meaning "strong in battle." Basically, it refers to someone who is physically tough in war. Originally, it was used to refer to the Roman god of war, Mars. ===================== Tang Shaoyang, an orphan who dropped out of the middle school to fight on the street as he found out school was useless for a penniless orphan like him. Tang Shaoyang dropped out of his school, fighting on the street, and made a name for himself. Berserker Tang from Youyouliucun. Afterward, Dragon Wing triad recruited him and everything was good for him. Even though the public deemed him as a tumor of society, Tang Shaoyang was having a decent life. Until one day, everything changed as an absurd and strange game started. "... Game starts! Stage one: Survival for The Fittest!" After the game started, zombies appeared out of nowhere. ... Ding! "You have killed 1000 zombies less than 24 hours since the game started! You gained 3 Talents!" Dong! "You may choose 3 Talents! please choose carefully!" Tang Shaoyang held his chin and mused what Talent he had to choose. "With Zombies appear everywhere, I need an infinite strength... this is one, I still need to choose 2 Talents more..." Then a lewd smile formed on his lips. "I want an infinite strength, charm and charisma to conquer women, and the last one, I want to upgrade my **** so I can please my women!" After saying this, Tang Shaoyang laughed aloud. "Hahaha, there's no way such talent exists... ehhhhh?!!!" Ding! Dong! "3 Talents are consumed! You have been granted Divine Body! Good Luck, Gamer Tang Shaoyang!" Tang Shaoyang immediately checked the detail of Divine Body. After a brief silence, he muttered unbelievably. "Such Talents really exist..."
