I was revived by my best friend
Community Rating
Description
After my unexpected death, I learned that my best friend is the son of a great necromancer!
My friend spent years running away from his dad, but there he is now, learning the ins and outs of necromancy at a fast pace, all for my sake.
As for me, I'm happy to be still around and kicking. Bit by bit, I'm adapting to my new life as an evolving undead. So many things have changed: my everyday life, my senses, my view of the world and necromancy… Luckily, I kept my soul! That's cool because I kept my memories, but that also means I'm… just me. My high-school grades aren't going to improve miraculously!
This slice-of-life, urban fantasy saga tells the story of a high-schooler undead, his master, and their companions. It takes place in a world of superpowers and qi practitioners, two thousand years after the Big Blend, when our Earth was pierced by a rain of giant Crystals and everything teleported away: cities, monuments, forests, and even mountains got shuffled!
This work is on hiatus.Note of the author: I usually write in my native languages, French or Spanish, and then translate. This was my first story written directly in English, and that slowed me down. I honestly enjoyed writing this a lot and really liked how the characters turned out to be. That said, it was also my first attempt at creating a science-fiction-like modern fantasy setting with superpowers (I'm more of the epic slice-of-life fantasy type). In the end, the world grew increasingly darker, and the storyline more “grandiose”, with Ray's mysterious past being a bit too otherwordly… It was overwhelming. So, sadly, I have parted my ways with this story. It's frustrating, and I typically don't do that, but things that don't work out, don't work out. I won't forget Armen and his friends. Thanks to all the readers and take care!!

- LN CreeperRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I think the story is really fresh and heart warming. The interactions between the MC the world around him is fun and endearing (even tho he is a little dumb and too optimistic, I think that's what makes him stand out among all the other edgy, all-knowing protagonists that we see often as an undead character). I also like the world building and other mysteries within the story, it makes me wonder what will happen next in the story. I'm leaving this 5 star review encourage the author as well as expressing my interest in the story and where it will lead. Cheers and stay safe!!!
- caraccoRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0The story is really funny, the MC is a birdbrain but is kinda cute in his nonsensical attitude.
I am confused on it will end as I have started to ship a couple of characters, and now I am waiting for them to progress their storyline, and this is a good thing as it means that I am invested in the story.
All in all, it's a good story, light, and heartwarming most of the time.
The grammar is good, even if there are some errors here and there.
The story is kinda slow, but a kind of slice-of-life it's expected and appreciated, even if I would like to know more already.
The characters are the best part of the novel and are really likable. The Mc is fun to read and the one around him are cool in different ways. Obviously, Ray is the best and should be the real ML, but I can accept compromises.
The style is good, and while not so distinct that you will remember it, it does its job well enough in telling the story, which is the most important thing that it should do in my opinion.
So, I hope the author will keep going and telling the story.
