About this story

Shimon is somewhere he shouldn’t be.  Once a pro-gamer with an experimental biochip, he falls into a Sengoku Japan which never existed. A Japan with ruthless warlords, prowling yōma, legendary samurai, omyouji magic, and dinosaurs ridden into battle. Here, being different is a mark of spiritual corruption, a death sentence. But when desperation forces him to call for help, something ancient answers. Something demonic. Now he carries a debt that cannot be ignored. Survival is only the beginning. In an age of endless war, Shimon must gather allies, navigate feuding clans, and outwit monsters both human and supernatural if he ever hopes to find a way home—before the debt comes due. An epic LitRPG inspired by James Clavell’s Shōgun, set in an alternate version of Japan’s Warring States period. Think Takeda cavalry charging into battle on Triceratops, Wakō pirates commanding mosasaurs, and Ikkō-ikki using massive sauropods as mobile temples of war. Cover Art by : Sleviatan
