Summary

The royal bastard of House Vasquer, Argrave, has 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. His listless life has found a path of undeniable purpose. Most come away thinking he seems to know too many details about too much. Few can claim to know his motives or his goals.

Behind the scenes, though, 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 that he had the misfortune to claim as his favorite game. This is his tale.

#####What to expect from this story#####

This piece is a high-fantasy style story, featuring many of the species and surroundings one might expect to find in such a world. The cultures are original and well-developed, with the primary setting being a European-style feudal society. Warfare, fell beasts, and natural disasters are commonplace in Berendar, and take the center of many plots. The protagonist is a smooth-talker, but the world does not exist for him; he must struggle to gain power.

    I love this novel and the interaction between the character that’s really realistic. If it has a romance that could be one of the best novel on this website.

    This novel should easily be in the top 25. The writing style is very good and the story itself is great. No idea as to why it’s so low on the rankings. Those of you trying to decide whether or not to read this should definitely give it a go

    This should be in the top 50s Good story progression, story pacing is good and side characters are vivid interesting , world building and the power distribution is interesting . Different fractions with different agendas and goals and the mc party navigate though them to ensure a good end

      I stopped reading this about a year ago and am about to reread. It was good from my memory 7/10 at least.

        I'm not a fast reader, and I only read in my free time. Currently at ch. 30-40s I think? And I can say so far, it's at least 8/10 for me. I've read so many novels, and most of them are generic but good, unique but not that good, and unique/generically bad. This novel tho, idk. The plot seems so generic, but the world building tho. It's not just the mc, but the author is also good at showing different povs. The sarcastic MC is also a cherry on top. What can I say if it's not 8 at least? Btw... Is Argrave Gay or something? Why I feel like the author gave us a lot of hints. For the record, Mina's love interest is Nicky, which makes her a l*sb**n. Now tho, the chemistry of ice elf bodyguard and Argrave seems off... Like there's something.

        I only got 65 so I don’t know if he is gay. I wouldn’t think so at this point because it doesn’t have anything like that in the tags

        He's not gay. The romance between him and the love interest is done well.

    It's awesome! You've a cunning MC ,the strategies, world building, fighting, each supporting character has there character buildup to the point that it's very unique. The protagonist believes more in negotiations because he doesn't want to lose any of his people and the dialogues that are carried out are impeccable! He becomes stronger but very slowly.. Like building a strong base and not those powerjacked upgrades you get almost instantly that looks stupid.
