Every time he dies, Ethan Hill gains a little more power.
Earth was chosen for Integration, but Ethan knows from the second his Trial begins that the Integration is a lie. These creatures giving Earth the 'honor' of access to their Interface want something from Earth - he just doesn't know what.
Now he's trapped on an alien planet and lost in a time loop, fighting for strength and for his own humanity.
One thing's for sure: He'll die as many times as it takes to tear it all down.

- MacbethinstienRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Let's get to it!
First, the worldbuilding is good in my opinion, with the author giving a vivid description if the environment the MC encounters, as well as the inhabitants of his world, plus interesting locations and side characters, providing proper introduction. It also alludes to future locations and the nature of the system and the trials itself, both answering and giving questions.
Style 4.5/5
The style is compelling, and i find it good at drawing me into the action, as well as properly conveying the situation the protagonist finds himself in, and the only thing about it that irks me is the incessant use of -, as in the first chapter you'll find it in practically every sentence, otherwise the style is impeccable! And as of updating this, it's gotten better, as i can easily visualise the techniques described within the story.
Story 5/5
This is just my current opinion, something i've gained from what is shown so far, so i will be updating this as the story is updated. However i am incredibly satisfied so far, and am confident going in that this story will succeed, with the good introduction and strong descriptive nature and decent pace shown so far. And as of this quick update, the author is shown not to coddle the MC, and introduces actual consequences and a smattering if challenges and good opportunities for growth for the MC. It also introduces an interesting power system through a skill exchange, with a focus on punching up and defeating stronger and stronger enemies for greater rewards.
Grammar 5/5
Just, chef's kiss. Spectacular grammar, this is genuinely one of the best stories i've read in terms of grammar, and during my read i spotted not a single mistake. If this is consistent then I would be in complete joy.
Character 5/5
So far the introduction of our main character is strong, though it's a bit vague in my opinion, with no last name, and a bit unrealistic in terms of a normal human, as he does seem unnaturally calm in the face of continously dieing an - CallMeCatRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I love the concept of this story! I've always been a fan of the time loop genre and the system that is in this story feels really solid. Progression is a good pace you feel the power pick up fast but it's not so unbalanced that the mc just starts steam rolling every challenge. We haven't learned much about the character yet but they seem to have some basic morals which is always a positive sign.
- AtrakinRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0The novel's off to a great start. There's not a lot I can go off of quite yet, seeing as there are only 9 chapters right now, but I can tell this could be the start of something great.
The worldbuilding seems solid, the system seems well thought-out. As far as I can tell, the style is good and there's nothing wrong with the grammar. There's not much to say on story or characters, though, since the novel's barely beginning.
Maybe in a few weeks to a few months I can say more, but, for now, all I can say is that this has a good deal of potential, and that I hope it pans out well. - Lolzold4Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0The idea of being stuck in a time loop isn't a new one. Normally the stakes are quite low (because dying only means you get to start over), but this story (in only its opening few chapters) establishes multiple ways of keeping the idea fresh and compelling.
Style: LitRPG mechanics of sories fall on a spectrum. On one hand we have stories that contain tables just for the sake of seeing the numbers go up (which I like) and on the other we have stories with complex mathemathical underpinnings that sometimes feel too hard to understand (but that I also like). This story lands itself in the perfect middle. Its LitRPG mechanics are easy to understand and are surprisingly relevant. The feeling of rolling for skills/stats also helps.
The overall style is well thought out. The story doesn't get bogged down with long expositions or too much emotional distance from the MC.
Grammar: No noticable spelling errors or funny sentence structures. The words flow smoothly.
Story: It's still in the initial swings but has great premise and room to expand that stories sometimes lack. It still has the generic end goal (live/escape the loop) but the intermediary goals come naturaly and don't feel forced.
Characters: Characters feel like they have their own stories to tell and they feel real. Author found a way that helps in fleshing out the characters and I feel like there is only room to grow. Low number of cast members for now, but doesn't feel empty like time loop stories often do.
Overall a great read that I'd recommend to anyone that likes a lawful good MC trying his best out of a shitty situation. - CursedByTimeRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Ngl, I started this with low expectations. We all crave for that hit and enjoy a good story only to end up disappointed it wasn't up to par.
Not this. It's everything and more of the promised tale. Very interesting. Still in its early stages, but it has incredible potential. The world is compelling . Protag isn't a instant murderhobo or psycho and the system is also both complex and simple to understand. Give it a go! - ElderThorinRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Enjoying the story! Don't know much about the MC yet but learning slowly works well in this timeloop story. Grammar/etc haven't been an issue which is always a plus :-) Without too much spoilage I like that the time loop is taken into account and balanced against - a bit of a different take than most time loop stories. Interesting world with both immediate and long-term mysteries and goals make for a fun read that has great potential for a full story. Can't wait to read more
- ChaospatRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0The time loop is not static. There are many thing that can and will change the loop in this story. This fact alone allows this story to have stakes and not become stale.
The world and power system are interesting. At first they seem cliché, but quickly become unique to this novel. It's easy to imagine them continuing to evolve in the future.
The action scenes are short, concise and well written.
For the MC, even though he becomes more powerful, we don't really see him change as a character. The only difference between the MC in chapter 100 and the MC in chapter 1 is that he is more powerful. And the other characters in the loop are the same.
In conclusion, read this novel if character development is not your main priority. - Indigo6Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0Fun LitRPG with time loop shenanigans. Includes both a typical "system" form of magic as well as a more soft magic centered around growing as a person and proving a definition of your identity.
It's a power fantasy that doesn't go too over the top. MC gets knocked down often and struggles to get back up. No boon of power isn't earned. - CrazyEDRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I love playing adventure games on pc. This is like watching someone else play but realising, that all actions have severe consequences. Brilliantly written and very captivating. Love it :) The way Ethan have to figure out skills by using them and having a constant pressure, since time matters, is intriguing. I warmly recommend reading this fiction story.
- NoissarRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I feel like I went through this FAST!!
Chapters 1-3 are going to give you a taste of the story. chapter 5 should let you know what side of the fence you are on. Chapter (13 maybe) 16/17 is the closet to a plot point the may have a possiblity of changing opinions on how you like the story.
I find this deeply captivating while still not being overly invested. This is a good thing, it goes right into the story and seemingly hardskips nearly (if not) all the story starting hiccups. Meaning you are diving right in to what you are reading about in the first few chapters without having the excessive descriptors on every detail about everything.
I felt all the details when they are given just feel like they arrive right on time. This allowed me to sink into the story really fast and just enjoy. The hints are all there if you are a critical reader and like to find out some of the deeper meaing about what is going on and this is very well balanced in not needing to be able to do that enjoy what is going on.
