About this story

Follow Nero’s journey through a world filled with every fantasy imaginable, while being stuck in a city filled with only humans.  Watch as he struggles to understand how magic works, and what reality looks like when it’s based on fantasy instead of physics.  He’ll have to face a society focused on self-improvement and cooperation.  Suffer the horror of competent administration.  Persevere through the indignity of living in a world where people’s opinions are based on rational arguments.  Although Nero’s past life hadn’t prepared him for the challenges he’ll face, he won’t face them alone.  He will find allies to assist him, mentors to guide him, even a few fans.  There will be villains and threats, heroes and training.  But mostly, it will be Nero trying to ignore what’s going on around him while focusing on learning magic. The world is big, and there are characters aplenty.  As time goes on, the story will grow.  The leveling system may seem simple at first, but it's soon revealed to be so complex that our hero will do everything he can to ignore it, regardless of the consequences. If you enjoy watching an internet troll with a heart of fool's gold be forced to grow up by circumstance and the influence of those around him, then this story will be worth your time.  Just don't get your hopes up, our main character isn't ready for that kind of responsibility. *Posting on Mondays at 5:30pm CT Expect: - Snarky banter bordering on rude - A fantasy world built on a framework of satirical realism - A unique progression system - A slow, easy-going pace Don't Expect: - Overly complex emo characters - Murderhobos - Cliche villains and heroes - To read the whole book without chuckling
