Is that a Wisp?
Author: Suiyan
Completed · 13.8M Views
Synopsis

Author's Note: The start of the story is very slow and cliche. Give it a chance until the wisp reaches the human cities. It's at that point that the book's charm shows itself (Around chapter 20, all free!). --- What if a wisp, with zero EQ about human culture and habits, gains the opportunity to finally achieve human form? Now he can enter cities, experience technology, and fight his way to the top, right? In this universe where wisps are seen as nothing more than resources, a wisp stands up to challenge the wisps' destiny! Not without causing a lot of misunderstandings on his way, of course… --- Realms: Qi Condensation; Foundation Establishment; Core Formation; Divine Soul; Soul Forging; Void Breaking; Divine Path; Divine View; Semi Divinity; Divinity. --- Transformation; Mortal Rejection; Godly Fusion; God Foundation; God Core; Nascent God; --- Semi-God Realm; God Trial Realm; Elementary God Realm; Primal God Realm; God Realm. https://discord.gg/mR3pzMN Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/suiyan

I Was Caught Up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

It all happened so abruptly. After finally grasping my situation, I found myself in an entirely different world. Looking around, I noticed others in the same predicament… Could this possibly be one of those Hero developments? Was there a tyrannical Demon Lord needing extermination, or would I be tossed into the maelstrom of war? Whatever it was, I was afraid. I never wanted to be a Hero. I don’t want to harm another…… Ignore the nonsense I was spouting; there was nothing to fret over. The Demon Lord was slain a thousand years ago, and 800 years had passed since the last war. The nobles didn’t treat us summoned like tr*sh; instead, we were kindly cared for. The Demons have been on good terms with Humans for some time now. Dangers, such as monsters, were being taken care of by the Guild and the Order of Knights. What’s more surprising is the fact that I wasn’t even a hero! Instead, I was unintentionally summoned! It also turns out that this world was a world in which the three races, the Spirit World’s Magical Races, the Celestial World’s Divine Races, and the Mortal World’s Human Races, are kind neighbours. Here, everyone lives a peaceful and fulfilling life. In summary, this other world was――at peace. What’s my plan for the future? For my limited stay here, I will live this world to its fullest; going on a cultural exchange, sightseeing, then, after experiencing the festival that is only held once every ten years, …… I shall safely return home. However, despite my lust for a peaceful last year before returning, this planet’s heavyweights have begun amassing around me, and……

The use of frames is a key characteristic. The outer story acts as a frame for the inner stories. In books like 'The Decameron', where a group of people are in a retreat and each tells a story, the retreat story is the frame. This can create a sense of context and setting for the inner stories. Moreover, it can allow for a contrast in tones. The main story might have a certain tone, while the stories within can vary greatly in mood, which makes the reading experience more diverse.

One characteristic is the layering of narratives. For example, in 'The Arabian Nights', the outer story of Scheherazade's nightly storytelling frames all the other tales she tells. Another characteristic is the ability to offer different perspectives. The inner stories can provide unique viewpoints that add depth to the overall theme of the main story.

An era that should not be buried by history. An emperor who should not be looked down upon by the past and present. The Five Dynasties ended, and the conflict continued.

Thus, the orthodox Heavenly Book Movement was vigorously staged. Thousands of auspicious signs came. In this pursuit of fame and fortune, an extremely brilliant light came over a thousand years, turning into a cluster of flowers that bloomed only for the golden age. At the age of nine, he went to the court and the emperor personally tried him. Four years in the examination, the first in ancient and modern times.
