Description
--- HIATUS ---Rise of the Business [Class] is a story about a world where humanity ended up fleeing Earth through space, having suffered multiple great disasters back home.On arrival we crash-landed and were soon attacked by magic wielding civilizations who learned how to deal with our weaponry at a speed that belied their seemingly simplistic nature.We were lost.But eventually we survived by abandoning technology and adapting to this strange, new place.But this tale takes place thousands of years later, after humanity's new homeland has had time to rise and falter more than once.It tells of a time where we adapted too much, focusing only on combat and magic and learning to rely on the System that our ancestors built in order to compete and survive on this hostile planet with the others.This is a story of our final chance during a time when all of humanity is under siege again, where we struggled to adapt too late and ultimately had to learn how to summon a collection of people from Earth through time and space to come help–but not to thebesieged timebut back a couple of hundred years earlier–before it went too far down the wrong path, so their chosen can hopefully change things enough to prevent a return to that timeline.Follow Livia as she is ripped from her favorite library and end up getting lucky, or unlucky? On her very first day on the Elderwood continent.While a trio of native lads excitedly leave home to find adventure, oblivious of how very soon they might end up entangled in the fate of the world that has always been their home.But the question that remains to be answered, that this first leg of the journey aims to find out; is what can a LitRPG bookworm like Livia do if called on to change humanity and prepare us all for the future, all before her 21st birthday?Cheers for reading this far, have a biscuit!
... You know, from your cupboard. I don't actually have biscuits for you, I'm sorry.

- DrogonRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Overall score's just how my experience was so maybe I was in a good mood, don't take it for granted you will agree but I had so much fun when things really got going.
Style was good, easy to read and short chapters to introduce things but then longer and longer. Several characters who feel sort of like a MC but a nice balance theperspectives.
The story is still beginning but Iliked a lot of the choices and the world has a lot of hidden depth it seems, the discover of new Skills was cool.
Very good grammar for royalroad and I usually find mistakes even in the top rated, but very few here
The characters was my favorite part, everything from a wolf that eat too much and a owl that likes to go tripping- it had some good originality but also more serious and relatable characters but the series is young so I am expecting growth where they fall short a lot still, maybe I'm too nice bit during reading I was just happy to see the future these guys enter now, I think book 2 will be very fun especially since it should be much more basebuilding and that stuff then. We will see maybe I updates more the grade then.
Read it if you want Druids and psychic Warlocks combo with building [Guild] - LatentTalentRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0I just finished reading what the author has deemed to be book 1. It does have some elements of LitRPG and Isekai but I also see at the moment a "Slice of Life" vibe. There isn't much combat or dungeon exploration, it is dedicated to character development and discovering the world that the author has created.
I'm glad to not have to read wall of texts about each level up and all the stats gain, the author instead chose to focus more on moving the story onwards. - skeptruneRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0This story has a slow build and really picks up around chapter 23. Read up to there or even skip up to that point before you drop this, because it will be well worth it. Additionally, if you like "org building" or "leadership" I think you will love this work and should definitely give it a read.
This writing will positively stand out from the pack for the following characteristics:
- The perspective is third person and does not focus hard on any single character or subnarrative. I like that there are multiple characters who feel equally present and unified. From my experience, this is quite rare and hard to do. One of my pet peeves is when there are multiple characters that feel very disconnected and this definitely avoids that while keeping the pro of many characters.
- The leadership present feels very natural and realistic. Plot armor in the form of "brotherhood," "battle bonds," "trauma" etc. does not feel present. I really enjoy that. If you are someone who likes hearing folks like Jocko Willinck talk about leadership, you will likely enjoy this story quite a bit.
- The progression is centered around building an organization and while not quite a rare trait in PF stories, it is done in an interesting way here. If you enjoy other novels of the "org build" sort, you will like this and not find it repetitive.
The first major weak point of this story is that dialogue feels clunky and hard to follow. I frequently found myself losing track of who was saying what and where the characters are in physical space. I would really need to spend some time comparing this to other stories such that I could offer constructive feedback on how to fix it. However, I do think the issue is present and could definitely be fixed at a later date. Altogether, it did not bother me to an extent where I did not enjoy the story.
The second weak point is that the characters feel weakly differentiated from one another. The author has laid out a big challenge for themselves in having so many c
