Description
"You may now kiss the bride."
But no kiss ever came.
I'm ripped from my wedding and thrown into a medieval fantasy world with game-like elements. It may seem like a game, but that doesn't matter to me, because this is my reality. The pain, the hunger, the cold, the fear, it's all real to me.
Alone, without knowing why I'm here, in a world where I know nothing and nobody, I decide to buy a Blood Slave to have someone I can trust. She brings me comfort and so much more. She helps me raise my head high again and bravely move forward. Together, we'll grow stronger. Together, we're unbreakable. But she won't be the only one by my side. We need more than just each other, for I know that my purpose in this world can't be accomplished with only her help.
Monsters and dungeons plague the land, forcing civilization to protect themselves from the hordes with tall walls and fierce determination. Killing monsters is a daily need, but they aren't the only enemy here. I have a powerful "Gift" that allows me to change my "skill points" at will, but if others were to know about it, there would be many that would try to use me by any means possible.
Step by step, moment by moment, day by day, we keep moving forward, always aiming to improve our strength. One day, we'll meet our Fate, and we'll be ready for it. Swords held high, shields tightly strapped to our arms, wings spread apart, spells at the tip of our tongues, minds focused like blades, and our hearts hardened like steel. We'll take on whatever comes our way!

Content Warning: gore, profanity, sexual content (most of it has been censored) (male/female, female/female, andhuman/non-human(not for the faint of heart)), traumatizing content
What to expect: Slow story focused on the day-to-day life of a transmigrated man rather than on the plot.
The plot exists but itvery slowlybecomes relevant.
Also,slowcharacter progress. It's a long journey, so don't expect a hero to grow in just a few chapters.
Detailed environments and extensive world-building.
Realistic and tactical combat instead of flashy.
Protagonist with a cheat but far from overpowered.
Lotsof descriptive sex scenes (though most got censored here). It's treated as just another part of life instead of merely fan-service.
A harem where the members actually enjoy living with each other.
Occasional weird wording and grammar, English isn't my first language.

- WickLockheedRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Came here from Scribble Hub, loving the site. Now, write more chapters! Moar!
Style
A first-person story where we see the train of thought of the main character. He seems to have believable reactions to being pulled out of his wedding. Though a little awkward in the way the emotions are portrayed the MC finds his stride and the chapters get better.
The pacing is rather well-done. It's not an action-packed story as a lot of the world is descripted, like the environment, architecture (the author really loves architecture), physical description of characters, clothes, and food flavors. Now all that's left is for the author to add visual description of the food, thankfully it is left as "not-(insert Earth-like food here)", which reminds us the food is like Earth, but not really.
Back to pacing. There's plenty of bouts of action, research, sex scenes (though he likes sex scenes a bit too much), exploration and character interactions so you are always interested in what's to come next.
The action is also very well-done. More on the tactical side instead of the ridiculous xianxia kind of fights were it's one ass-pull after the other. Even when magic is thrown in the middle things feel very contained. It's honestly my favorite part, there's not much repetition on action so whenever things go down you can expect something new.
Story
The weakest point, which is kind of a difficult thing to judge since it is slice of life and so you expect barely any plot whatsoever.
Comparison to other novels the plot development is only at it's infancy.
Spoiler: Spoiler
The first real antagonist just appeared, at chapter 29, after 1335 pages.
But it's not like there's no conflict or danger.
Though I believe it will happen since there's some foreshadowing about why the MC was thrown into the world.
Grammar
Pretty good. There's some problems with commas and periods. The review that the author is doing is very welcome as I can see a noticeable difference in sentence structure from the reviewed - IndigoSharpeRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0This is a nice story. I was a little on the fence at first. The mc was kinda annoying initially and the world wasn't fleshed out enough, but then as the story carried on, things got better. Much better.
Now here I am on chapter 25 wondering when the next chapter comes out. All in all, the plot has been nice. Doing a good job of balancing slice of life elements and the more driven narrative. The characters are decent and feel distinct. I even find myself getting more interested in the world. - finaltheorem47Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0Love the story, love the ultra long chapters, love the pacing etc. It's a story you jump on for the long haul like Savage Divinity, not a quickie you power through.
- DorianFlorentianRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5Style:
Lots of focus on the MC train of thought. Can get heavy to read and slow paced but it provides a much closer look to the personality of the MC than most novels do.
There's also a lot of exposition, makes sense since the MC got thrown into the world completely blind but Jaysus! Move the damn plot!
Story:
Talking about plot. There's little plot so far, MC got thrown in the world for a reason but nothing about that reason is known yet. The harem talks about being "led" together but nothing else came after that.
Up until chapter 21 some conflict arises but there's still no sight of a main plot. I guess this is kind of fine since it is tagged as "slice of life".
The story is nice and well written and like I said, there's lots of lore and exposition, but sex slaves. It weirds me out a bit seeing sex slaves but I can handle it.
The author has a boner for architecture, for the first time in my entire life I learned what is "loggia", "quoins" and "corbels.
The dungeon exploration is actually good, the combat is interesting and based on teamwork. No wuxia "I have more soul/chi/mana/whatever bullshit more than you so I immediately win"
Character Score:
Sex slaves. Lots of girls are thrown quickly at the MC but it "kind of" makes sense. At least there's development, they change, show emotion and have a bit of independence. They do rely a lot on the MC but they aren't show as "yes" machines like some novels turn the harem members into.
Finally, smut. Lots of sex and descriptions, not really the flowery kind but more raw and realistic.
Grammar:
Well, the author doesn't use "..." to show dialogue but uses -...- instead, weird choice that pulled me out of the story a bit but I'm getting used to it.
Aside from that I don't really see any problems with grammar.
Overall:
It's growing on me, I wanna see more of this world. - SandsforeverRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0Chapter 13
I enjoyed this immensely very few errors( or I didn't did not notice them either works for me)
Story made me care which is rare
This story is the right mixture of fluffy slice of light and serious stuff MC makes a LOT of since can be a bit of baby sometimes but who wouldn't in a stressful situation where your life is destroyed does what alot of isekai, portal, new world whatever stories cant seem to get right
It's a light hearted read that makes you feel better(also the sex scenes dont suck which is cool)
Thank you for content - gyro42Royal Road★★★★ 3.5Decent plot and characters. Isekai, harem, smut. if thats your thing go for it. i tried to stick around but lost it after chapter 11.
- AyashiRoyal Road★★★★ 3.5A nice story clearly inspired by Isekai Meikyuu and that improves upon the concept for a more entertaining experience.
While not shying away from the more adult side of relationship(s) the smut isn't overshadowing the story like in cheap porn so that's definitively a plus. - WishesRoyal Road★★★ 3.0Dunno what I expected, but it's just another Isekai story with all it's clishes pilled on and on. Mc is 30+ in a body of 16 yet behaves as a regular dumb 11-12 year old after 2 weeks of not geting his dick wet and is barely able to keep coherent thought. I assumed a western MC would be more mature and grounded. Even tries to be selfaware for a moment, but then throws all of it out of window and embrances all the stupid tropes and templates. Should have just used Japanese name . .
MC is constantly praised and respected for asking questions as 16 year old and for using barely average logic. His main personality trait is that he is polite. And of course EVERY SINGLE DECISION has to fully explained no mather how weak the logic/reasoning behind it is. He is traumatized by killing which seems to be endearing to him experienced battle slave and "Has to be protected", in a world where fighting for your life is a daily necessity. I would write more but I don't feel there is anything.
The writing feels better than average translated Japanese Isekai story. - Adam2502Royal Road★ 1.0In this case the author is also into being a cuck! Wooo, giving your wife to another guy to fuck without even asking her! Wooo.
No. Just no. Underage monster girls? Whatever, not my cup of tea but whatever, being a cuck? Nope. It's just not for me nor do I want it to be, when his gf kissed gare I was like "meh whatever" but when it becomes full on cuckage I'm gone. - J GreyRoyal Road★ 0.5There was a decent start here, but it damn near immediately gets into a pro-slavery arc that absolutely ruined it for me. There's about a page of justifications and moralizing about how it's not actually slavery and it's totally consensual and it's protected by the gods... but it's just an excuse to go buy a person. There's no real coming back from that for me. This could have been a good story, but the author wanted their slave fetish to take center stage and, well, it did.
