About this story

Daniel Brandt, former summoned hero, finally returns home. Seventeen peaceful years later, his past catches up with him – and his family. As Earth is integrated into the System and goblins prowl the once-tranquil German countryside, Daniel is no helpless beginner. He is a high-level Wizard with decades of experience, enough power to annihilate armies, and very little patience. His wife and grown children have no such head start. Thrust into a world of classes, attributes, and experience points, they must learn quickly if they want to survive and thrive. They also face a more immediate problem: Keeping the walking nuke they call husband and father from subjugating the country for its own good. What to expect: – A LitRPG with manageable numbers – Multiple POVs, primarily Daniel’s son and wife – Slow, meaningful progression – Tactical combat that remains dangerous – Settlement building, governance, and increasingly large-scale politics – Trace amounts of aura farming What not to expect: – Inflated numbers – Breakneck progression
