****(The one POV to rule them all)

I am truly glad I have a free-to-read novel. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to write stuff like this chapter with a good conscience.

I truly believe that there are certain moments in life that are worth noting.

Even if it might only be us rationalizing our own existence that is in the grand scheme of things pointless and meaningless. That is what I truly believe.

I believe we just happened to come on this earth like any other lifeform. We simply exist. Of course, I might totally be wrong. I am often after all haha.

Now don't get me wrong. This viewpoint is not depressing, on the contrary. Believing in no predetermined purpose is freeing.

It lets do pick a purpose for yourself. Whatever you want to do with your life is your own decision. As long as it makes you happy down the line, I say go for it. That is assuming you don't trample over others unnecessarily to get there if you know what I mean.

There are successes in life and there are also failures. What matters is that you keep fighting for what you want. Succeeding would be best, but sometimes the journey is more important than the destination.

I am not trying to convince anyone with this rant either. I am just being me.

That is how I live. That is how I am.

Life is a series of coincidences too. Is there a higher being controlling everything? Perhaps. Is there something such as fate? Perhaps. I truly do not know, nor care.

I will be doing me. I believe there is an explanation to everything, but we are simply lacking the foresight to understand it all. Then might as well focus on what we can impact, on the moment.

Again this isn't some motivational bullshit.

I truly believe that time enjoyed is not time wasted.

Worse case you will look back on these lazy days and be those were the good times. But then again, there is a balance to be had in everything. I also believe in working hard whenever needed.

Is this a contradiction? Perhaps. Humans are complex yet simple creatures.

Me starting to write was such a coincidence. More so a bunch of coincidences that ultimately led to this point.

I spent many years of my life reading and genuinely enjoyed all of it. Was it productive? Not especially haha, but I loved it anyway. It also let me figure out what I enjoyed in a novel.

I also spent many years gaming. One of the best social activities there is in my opinion. You get online with people trying to accomplish a goal together. It has good and bad times, but the sweet feeling of victory after struggling for long is addictive. You can also chat and get to know others while doing it.

I spent a lot of time too watching shows. May it be series, movies, or anime. Whatever is comedy/fantasy I binge like there is no tomorrow. Either actively or on the side while grinding a game.

Finally, I spent many years working. Mostly part-time while studying and now COVID-19 complicated all of that, but life is still good.

As I stated above me writing came about with a bunch of coincidences.

I was reading at the time but finished all the novels I was currently following and kind of got bummed out when I realized a novel I truly loved was over without it ever being completed.

I was gaming at the time too, but my account got hacked and I couldn't access the game. (I got it back no issue after a while)

I had just finished watching a bunch of shows and I didn't know what to start next.

I was actively working at the time, but I had 2 weeks off.

This made it so I had a lot of time on my hands. No novel to read, no game to play, no show to watch. Oh yeah, I was totally single too.

I was bored!!!

Were you expecting some deep reason? Nope. Not at all.

I was bored as simple as that.

Thus I started this journey. I wrote a bunch of words on paper and published it instantly. Not only a rash move but something I did quite clumsily too.

As I kept writing I changed the way I structured paragraphs for them to be easier to read.

I reviewed the grammar for it to be less disgusting. (Not a good DISGUSTING)

I started adding cool and obscure references.

I added emoticons and got restricted many times because of it. I finally figured out a way to bypass it, but it takes a lot of time. The time I could spend writing instead.

Overall I came up with a unique style of writing that is extremely trashy, but still something I enjoy.

That brings us to this very moment. Chapter 100. What happens at chapter 100? Nothing at all. Nothing new. The story will keep progressing. There is no mass release either.

Why the emphasis on 100 then?! It is simply me being petty and celebrating finally hitting 3 digits of chapters.

It is too early to celebrate? There are thousands of chapters yet to come right?

Yes, 100 chapters will be nothing in a few years of me writing this novel. I will look back on this chapter and scoff, damn this dude was truly a noob back then.

But so what?! We gotta enjoy the little things.

Let this chapter be the very first tiny milestone I have cleared.

One so insignificant, but still.

I have big plans for this novel. Really big ones. Are they realistic? Who knows, but at least I am striving for something I want to do right now so who the fuck cares!

I see this novel becoming a meme in the novel circle. 100% of the people will wholeheartedly agree on how trash it is yet will still read it. People will come here for the weirdness and stay for the story.

I want this novel to be an all-encompassing one. I will cover all the genres there are. *Takes car salesman voice* You can fit so many genres in this bad boy *slaps novel cover*.

At some point, anyhow. I am also forgetful sometimes so remind me on discord haha.

Talking about the discord it is way more to me than a typical author's discord.

It started as a gaming discord. A bunch of friends would use it to voice chat and post all kinds of new games they wanted to try as a group. Right now, we are playing a survival game and we are getting wrecked! xD

Then I invited a bunch of friends from webnovel. Most of them fellow newbies authors that all know what the grind is all about. Wanting to make your novel known for it to be drowned in the sea of new releases. Being just one of the others. Of course, there are few experts that joined, but only a few for my discord is all about having fun and sharing with people. Not anything serious or professional.

Finally, I added it as the official discord for this novel. For you see the people that keep up with this novel regularly are ones I consider very awesome. I felt like I wanted them there. Every time I see a cool GIF or comment only making that feeling stronger.

Talking about comments, I truly hope that at some point every of my ghost readers will take a second to write a comment (after every chap). It can be whatever, it can be anything. Only to show me you are there. I added a bunch of sect mottos to chapter 69. You guys can copy anything there and paste it.

Every comment I see puts a smile on my face as I know somewhere someone is enjoying my work. Some I talk to on discord and sometimes it's enough to fucking make my day I shit you not I am that simple!

Thinking stories is something I have actually done for years. Putting it on paper is the thing I am truly new to. English isn't my main language either. I have been told my writing sucks the way it is. For many reasons. While I am trying to improve, I don't expect it will magically happen. If I can share my story it will be enough for me.

But sharing is all about knowing it brings joy to at least one person.

Let this chapter be a fan appreciation chapter. Thank you!

If you are reading this chance are you have dealt with my bullshit for 100 chaps already. This deserves some praise. Probably flowers and chocolate too with a news feature. Today I am live with user XXX that dealt with Zombie's weird writing style for 100 chaps already! OMG!

If I was a successful author, I'd do some autograph signing or some shit. Sadly, I am both extremely broke and unknown.

This also means that if you are reading these lines at this exact moment you are one of the few that actually managed to find this novel and yet decided to keep reading. What are the chances!? When this novel blows up, I believe at some point it will (let me be optimistic) you guys will look back on this very day and think I was there!

I want this place to become the family you've never had (for your family probably aren't degenerates). Of course, I am using degenerate in a good way here haha.

This has been an origin chapter, a celebration chapter, a fan appreciation chapter, a vision for the future chapter, and a brainwashing cha… oh never mind the last one.

Do you know what is worse? I'm not even drunk as I write these lines, unbelievable isn't it?!

That is how I truly am and will remain.

A goofy Zombie that speaks fluent meme and sarcasm.

I can promise you it will be chaotic, it will be weird, even disturbing at times, but it will be one hell of a ride.

So buckle up your belt for the shitposting will continue!
