This is a promising start to what feels like a gritty, character-driven urban fantasy. Connie’s personality shines through as a flawed but likable protagonist, and the world hints at fascinating depths waiting to be explored. With its strong blend of humor, introspection, and mystery, the story sets a solid foundation for future chapters. The deck of cards, in particular, is a captivating element that promises exciting developments ahead. Readers looking for a mix of urban realism and supernatural intrigue will find much to enjoy here!

I’ve hit the milestone of 100 chapters, and I pretty much have a handle on the story now. And so, I’ve compiled a set of questions that some people might have regarding the book. —Why does it keep changing POVs? In my opinion, I believe this allows me to flush out the personalities of other characters and expand on the world more naturally and also set up future events. The MC doesn’t know a lot about the world, he’s just a pawn to a bigger game. Trying to introduce it in his eyes would cripple the pace of the worldbuilding. To those who find this annoying. You have my apologies. —What is the core theme of the story? When starting out to this book I wanted it to be something lighthearted, like a comedy, as some of you can tell by the humor I put in some chapters. However, I have this habit of complicating things for myself. So I can say that it’s a mixture of heavy and lighthearted moments. Even though this wasn't what I wanted for the story, I am satisfied with what I’ve written thus far —Who is best girl? I can’t say. The story is teeming with great female characters that it would be a crime to just pick one. I’ll just leave that to reader’s personal preference. —Will there be a harem? Absolutely not! I never liked the genre, so I don’t think I’ll be including it any time soon. The MC might be surrounded by a lot of girls but that doesn't mean he's going to have a harem. However that isn’t to say there won’t be any romance, there will be but it’ll be a slow burn, a very, very slow burn. —How many volumes do you plan to have? Can’t say, but I at least want to end the story at around 500-600 chapters or so. Depends on the situation really. If there are any more questions. I'll be happy to answer them as best as I can without spoilers Thanks for reading!

Orphaned in the old world after taking care of his irresponsible and sick mother for years on end, Kyle finds his life turned upside down. His already dim world turns even gloomier and coupled with his trauma from losing her, Kyle felt like he had lost his purpose in life. Living day by day, akin to a soulless puppet, he struggled to keep his suicidal thoughts in check, all whilst trying to make ends meet as a cabbie. During those dark times, Kyle slowly begins to find solace in the world of music and movies. Even though it had always been there, it truly became something as a bloodline of sorts for him because, individually, both pieces of media, transported him to another world, one where he could feel happy, if even for a fleeting moment. And, as if the universe wanted even more for him, Kyle met some lovely old people, all of whom treated him as the son they never had, making him feel like he had a family after so long. This eventually, helped him let go of his trauma and turned him into the lovely soul he was always meant to be. But as fate would have it, these same people, wanted for Kyle to pursue his dreams because they saw the potential for greatness in him and the wonderous things he could go on to do, even if Kyle himself was oblivious to it. So, in an effort to make his dreams come true, they ended up gifting him a brand new chance, one that Kyle himself would only go on to realize after his untimely death in a fatal car accident. Now awake in the new world, still orphaned but with a brighter perspective on life, Kyle, armed with a System, another gift from his loved ones in the previous world, decides to take the chance to pursue his dreams of being a star, one that he was unable to pursue in his previous life due to his lack of talent. This is the story of a man who will go on to become the most versatile and renowned superstar all over the world... and it starts, just as he takes his first step into the cutthroat world of fame and fortune by registering for the popular singing reality TV competition, 'Rising Voices'. Known to be a fiercely competitive TV show, Kyle will meet with top contestants from around the world, go up against them, level up and become better, and ultimately, battle with them for the number one spot in the show as a dark horse! --- |AUTHOR NOTE| Just wanted to make it clear, that the singing competition which will be the first arc of the novel, will end around the late twenty-ish or early thirty-ish chapters. After that, you can expect so much more from the story so look forward to it! Also, although the setting is in a parallel world, all the songs, scripts and movies (although I will draw inspiration here and there), will be originals penned by yours truly (-‿◦).
