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 doubt it actually ended. They add brackets to end chapters usually. The chapter was probably titled End

    checked on the authors patreon and chapter 709 is the last chapter except for a few epilogue chapters, so the full story should be on here soon.

        Well, it's no LOTM or Shadow Slave regarding the power system's depth, but I'd say it's pretty decent. There are both mortal and divine paths, and mortals can kill gods if they're strong enough/have enough potential (-the protagonist's aura kicking in, ijbol). The main cast of characters' abilities are relatively interesting. It's fun to read Argrave's character development (especially in the first 200 chapters, he does a bunch of crazy sh*t and somehow ACCIDENTALLY becomes the eye of the storm in the mortal world- he's so silly like that; he's just feeling a bit quirky today!) I won't mention anything more since I don't want to put spoilers, but if you're willing to read anything to pass the time, I suggest reading it! If you like to go in-depth into the novel while reading, then maybe reread the synopsis and decide if it seems like a novel you'd be fascinated/engrossed by~ In my opinion, it's a good novel overall.

        Currently at chapter 94, so far so good. The conversations and dialogues are probably the best I’ve read so far, the fights are top tier so far so good

    I fully recommend reading this story. It's not perfect, none of them are, but it's a very good read overall. The romance is slowly built, the strategies and political movements of that world are a pleasure to read, and the world-building feels natural and Good.

    If you are reading this comment and thinking about giving this novel a try, I highly recommend you do, this story has everything that you need. Progress, humor, lovely relationship, building a kingdom, struggles, magic, history, science fiction, vengeance, sacrifices for the greater good and emotional turmoil. The story starts somewhat slow, the MC has one thing going on for him, and it is his knowledge of what's to come, and he will use it to build himself up.

        I think it finished, or the chapter is just named "End". I didn't start this novel yet, just saying.

        yeah, lol i was slightly annoyed with the mc's personality, he talks like a noble from the middle ages but the interactions between the characters are gold, anyway i only read till chapter 114 but it's a great novel nonetheless, i recommend to read until chapter 20 atleast before you form an opinion.

    I'm tempted to read it by the comments, but I don't really like comedy, could someone tell me if there is a lot comedy on this novel and how is the mc personality.

      Comedy is more like humorous comeback and taunts.
