Description

Life in a fantastical world didn’t add up to everything Sylas thought it would be. There were no pretty ladies goading him, there were no overpowered items and abilities tossed his way, and there was no calm and peace. Instead, he was tossed directly into a hellhole some few hours before it was to be invaded. That was it, he figured. His fantasy adventure in another world would be a short-lived one. He’d die and that would be it. Except...

You have died.

A ‘Save Point’ discovered.

You will be returned to the ‘Initial Save’ point.

Thanks for the journey!
Original if short adventure. Each chapter introduces small changes that steer the plot toward its conclusion. Readers should not expect battle scenes or a typical progression from weak to strong.
To me, the story is a narrative portrait of how the main character comes to accept his new reality.
As a suggestion for the author, adding more details to the turning-point scenes could enhance the excitement and better capture the reader.

Great story, easily one of my favourites on this site in the last few years. Watching mc slowly turn into the eccentric madman that he is, is a lot of fun. World building is amazing and the author drip feeding us new lore keeps it entertaining. Characters are all interesting and add a good mix of new plot points.
Keep up the good work author and may your inspiration last us till the end!!

I definitely recommend reading this as I've read many of the best web novels but this one kept me entertained throughout the whole novel and I enjoyed every second of it. It is my favorite character progression and portrays a realistic take to immortality which you don't always see and I think the Author handled the concept beautifully.

The story is very well written with interesting characters. Definitely in the top ten percent of RR. Sylas is not the strongest or most magical but wields his brain and charisma to progress. The loop let's him react to problems in a very different and interesting way. Be ready for intrigue, betrayal, and armies of the undead !

This is the funniest thing I've read on Royal Road. This isn't a cookie cutter portal fantasy. The MC is unique and unpredictable. I do wish the MC was a bit brighter but you can't have everything I guess. 🥲
Honestly I don't have any complaints on the prose. I like the style overall.
Please write more, thanks.

I don't why it isn't above 4.5 stars the story is great. And some of those stories that I am eagerly looking forward to.
P.S It's also one of those stories for which I keep on refreshing my follow page.

Makes good use of the MC's conman origins. The story is overall a compelling dive into his struggle against madness, his interactions with others, his developing philosophy and coping mechanisms, tragedy (missing tag btw), and all that the passage of time can erode. The story feels properly preplanned, with slowly unfolding lore and mystery. I was confused by the presence of the romance tag for a while, but by now it's a big part of my high rating. The writing style is immersive, aside from some tensing issues.

I really like the story, it is one of the better time loop stories with a large mistery ellement. The story is a bit rough around the edges but it continues to engage me.
What i like is that most deaths are not to grow stronger but to understand the plot better.
I also like the continuous character development of the main character. And that he is really human.
I dislike the slow plot development like with all time loop stories.
I love/ hate the nonsense that pops up through the story. It is funny, confusing and partly filling chapters.

Very few stories with an mc that can revive have smart mcs and it completely ruins the whole story. Grammar is good, side characters are ok. Novel would be 3.5/5, maybe 4 at most, but author makes the mc too dumb to make it enjoyable for me.
He can save and load respawn, he can only have 1 save at a time and can only save when he finishes missions given by the system. Instead of keeping his save at the beginning of the story, dude saves after the first mission, and apparently after every mission.
