「 Do you really understand what being alone means? No, definitely not. Because a lonely person quietly observes.」

After attempting to end his life, Kim Honja finds himself transmigrated into an absurd fantasy world where Gods and Angels reign supreme. Devoid of magical powers in a universe where Ether is the source of all magic, he faces eternal solitude and disturbing visions. However, a mysterious entity bestows upon him a unique power: the Black Ether. With its limitless potential, will this power be his salvation or lead him inexorably towards madness?

"As far back as I can remember, I've always been a loner, a boy who was a bit apart but whom everyone deemed ordinary. When I say I was lonely, I'm not referring to the loneliness that some people might have felt from rejection, insults, or being ignored. I'm talking about true loneliness, a profound solitude in which everything appears dull; you stand alone facing yourself, which is the most terrifying thing."

Disclaimer about release schedules:

On hiatus before writing the whole novel, see you in 10 years guys 🫡

It's my first novel, so I'm going to take the time to write it. I don't want to rush and ruin key moments of the plot. I'm using RoyalRoads as a platform to pre-release my chapters. They might be clumsy, poorly written, and maybe even difficult to read. So, I'd appreciate as much feedback as possible to help me improve.

Since the chapters are only in draft stages, they may change based on your feedback. I'll leave my links below, and you can add me on Discord (koneko.fx) or on TikTok (@dokuthefoolsquid).

Lastly, I wish you an enjoyable read and a pleasant journey into the absurd world of Solitary Eyes.
