The royal bastard of House Vasquer, Argrave, changed after his stay studying magic at the Tower of the Gray Owl. The sickly man's awkward posture and cruel behavior have been replaced with a neat dignity and acerbic wit. Though once listless, he now strives towards his goals with a life-or-death tenacity. Most come away thinking he seems to know too many details about too much. Few can claim to know his motives or his goals.
Yet behind that confident appearance, the primary contributor for an open-world RPG's wiki battles existential dread and things far beyond his ken as he struggles to adapt to a grim, gothic fantasy world mirroring his favorite game. The prospect of fighting against a world-ending calamity loses all of its appeal when it transitions from entertainment to reality. Argrave is spurred towards unwanted heroism to preserve his life as he struggles desperately to keep this sinking ship afloat.

I've read this on the OG site up to ch251 where I started stacking. I strongly recommend it. The plot and characters are great, the style fits well with the setting, and the upload rate is relatively fast (about 1 every 1.5 days). I would give this a 4.6/5
Bros a b*st*rd
For anybody that has read this novel, I have a question. What is this Novel Cover, is it related to the story or not? It looks like a trippy Sword. At a glance I didn't even notice the animal, I thought that was something like a fire magic flame
I've read up to 120 chapters and don't know why I don't want to read any more, even though the story is good.
Ohh this is actually a gem, wait for me coz I need to finish LOTM
Have poison tested up to ch63, and so far really liking it. Pretty good read.
Does this have a discord server?
The description reminds me of the bleak like worldbuilding of a dark souls game
Ooh a 5, imma dive in!
