Description
No, my name’s not Doug. I lied.
Waking up in this hospital bed and right away I’m being questioned.
They say I’m a hero, saved some girl. I don’t remember any of that.
Like the stories you read, a stranger in a strange world where magic and fantasy races exist, but technology hasn’t advanced.
It was all just a slice of life as I learned and grew in this world.

Author’s notes.Original work. First draft. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut.I’m in the US, writing in English. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits.

- Morris DarkstarRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I'm enjoying this story a lot. The main character is an engineer from our reality who wakes up in a fantasy setting. He gets banished at one point and wakes back up the next day of his normal life. Next time he falls asleep for the night, he along with some readied gear go back to the fantasy world.
- Zarik0Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0This is a really a good work, a well though and done story, i find no fault who come to mind about it only praise
Even my only personnal little dislike about the little social drama and interaction we get about a secondary character (Fenn) who in my opinion is a little bit to much present sprinked in the first 25 chapter is just that, a personnal dislike, and i can state objectively that its been a long time since i dont see and read this type of situation so well though and done by a author
I really like how the author bring thing and how the interaction are in this story
I recommend you try it - white_rabbitRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0The story so far has some promise, mostly standard isekai bits. There is some hint that the "magic" system will be interesting, hasn't gotten too far into it yet.
Progression looks like it might be very fast, the protagonist shows symptoms of having all the powers, which might cause issues with pacing/tension. Gets into a fight or two to the death with "no experience" and mops the floor with the bad guys.
Characters are ok. Very straightforward, what you see is what you get.
The intro is kind of weird, I would wait till at least the third or fourth chapter or so before forming an opinion about whether or not you like it. Style generally is ok.
Few grammar/spelling errors so far, seems fairly clean.
Overall, it's ok reading for now, really needs more time to determine if this is going be good or not.
