《The New Era Project》Chapter 1: Crossing Over
Advertisement
A state of paralysis envelops Feng Ye.
Darkness and nihility span across the void in all directions.
Endless darkness.
A single thought appears in the youth’s mind, “Am I dead?” As he slowly feels lightheaded and is about to faint, a cold systematic voice resounds in his mind.
System: “Congratulations to the host. System Binding Successful! Instability of space detected- transporting host to a stable space.”
Feng Ye awakens and quickly realizes that he has regained the ability to move. With a startled jump, he starts sizing up the environment only to be welcomed by four shabby wooden walls, a worn down wooden desk, office chair and a bed. A curtain blocks a single window in the room which faces away from where the desk and office chair are located.
Feng Ye starts yelling in his mind, “WHAT THE FFF!?”
“Where am I? Shouldn’t I be dead? Wtf?” Thoughts of uncertainty, alarm and of fear well up in Feng Ye’s mind as memories of the darkness and nihility send a chill up his spine. As he takes a moment to think of his present situation, Feng Ye is relieved that he did not express his shock vocally in this unknown environment.
He takes a seat on the office chair and recalls what had just occurred. Feng Ye was walking to the bus stop to go home when suddenly, a crack in the space in front of him appears and slowly expands like the hatching of a chicken out of an egg. A powerful force of attraction immediately pulls him into the dark crevice. Before Feng Ye could calm down, he was surrounded by darkness and nihility only to faint.
This leads to the present situation. “Is this crossing over in legend? At least I have a system so I still have a chance.”

“System, what’s going on?” Feng Ye inquires in his mind.
A screen appears in his mind, titled Main Menu with four options. System Status, Host Status, Store and Settings with the last two options non interactable.
Main Menu

Settings
Feng Ye, in his mind, selects the System Status option first and is greeted with a new screen.

His expression becomes a startled one. “View System Logs.”

*sigh
“I really am a lucky one to be able to coincidentally be able to bind to the system. I would have had to pass away in that gloomy place.” Unfortunately, from the System Log the system is in a state of energy recovery which has restricted its non-core features. In 8 days, he would be able to use the rest of the features.
Feng Ye then recalls the Main Menu and selects the only other available option, Host Status.

Looking at the attributes in his mind, only a single thought appears, “Mediocre”
Feng Ye is an athletic individual who spends a lot of time as a competitive swimmer in his high school years. Although, as a university student, he no longer has time to be apart of the competitive scene, he still has not neglected the sport. Due to his athletic background, Feng Ye has strength and vitality of 10 points.

Unfortunately, as an asian he is only 5’8 and is not as tall as others which would explain his speed being a mere 5 points. At least he isn’t classified as an idiot with 15 intelligence..
As a light novel and anime enthusiast, Feng Ye has also read his fair share of reincarnation and transmigration novels. “Abilities….. I wonder what kind of gift the system will give a beginner such as me.”
Feng Ye immediately displays a solemn look and kneels down in the worn down room.
“RNG-sama, please give me a good ability!!!”
“System Open Inventory.”
System: 1 X Gift Parcel detected. Has host determined to open?
“Open!”
System:
1 X Backpack
1 X Set of 20 Skill Points
1 X Random Ability
1 X Laser Pointer
“Okay, the items seem pretty standard. At least these items are reasonable. No complaints.”
Feng Ye immediately opens the backpack only to discover it is his original backpack that he was wearing before crossing over. All the familiar contents help relieve his startled mind. He still has his wallet, cell phone, notes, and stationary materials. Although the cell phone has no signal, the normal features still work.
Feng Ye immediately starts to allocate the skill points.
“Right now, I am a pitiful weak existence. I should add 10 points to STR, 5 to SPD and 5 to INT. By raising INT, it should help my mind sharpen considerably which can help me make more effective allocations in the future.”
Feng Ye, after allocating the skill points, immediately uses the Random Ability item. An uncontrollable pressure arises from within his mind for several seconds.
System: Congratulations to the host. Host has obtained ability- Hidden Wanderer.
When the feeling leaves him, Feng Ye opens his attribute panel again.

Host Inventory
“Hidden Wanderer is a pretty decent skill. As I am pretty much alone in this world with no information, it will make information gathering easier. Unfortunately, I didn’t draw out some earth shattering ability like sharingan from Naruto, or vector manipulation from A Certain Magical Index. Feelsbadman.”
After peering through the curtains and taking a brief look outside. Feng Ye was shocked. It seems to be dark outside. A brief glance at his phone indicates that the current time is 1:32 AM. Besides the darkened sky, a brightly lit city demonstrates its magnificence. From his room, Feng Ye noticed that he is in the suburbs of the city. Such a city made Feng Ye think as though he had travelled into the future. Shiny towers reflecting office lights are even distributed throughout the city. Fast subways of transportation zoom throughout the metropolis. Screens reflecting the weather conditions flicker throughout.
“Wow….”
With his worldview broadened, Feng Ye decides to properly explore the next day. After a night of rest, his first step into the new world begins.
Opening the door of his room, a new journey awaits in front of him. Little did Feng Ye know that the beginning of a New Era is about to begin.

Shaman
*** Let's get this clear now: the MC is a trans woman. This is not a gender-bender. It's set in a fantasy world but the exploration of identity and gender is reality-based. Not a joke, not a kinky turn-on. If this is a problem for you, please just act like an adult and look elsewhere for something to read. *** Rating breakdown, since that should be public info: 2 x 5*, 1 x 4.5*, 1 x 3*, no reasons offered. A human shaman and healer returns from several years with the mysterious shyani, accompanied by her shapeshifting puma best friend. A valued friend, from her previous identity as a male student physician, has acquired an old shyani book, and extremists will not tolerate its presence in human hands. But back in human lands, the question arises: which world does she belong in? Generations ago, human explorers found a continent inhabited by an utterly alien culture of shapeshifting weyres and the shyani, humanoids who prefer dusk and dawn. A truce of sorts was eventually reached: humans claimed the rich lowlands, and the shyani and weyres retain the highlands. Along the border, practicality often rules, but on either side, old grudges linger in some hearts. As a student physician, Corin tried to take his own life, unable to bear the countless tiny wounds inflicted over twenty-one years of lying to himself in order to be, or pretend to be, socially acceptable. At the last improbable instant, intervention came, in the form of a spirit fox, who led him away from the existence he’d known in the lowlands and into the highlands. There, a puma weyre rescued him, and a shyani shaman helped him find his true self and offered a rebirth, a life with no more lies, and an important role to fill. Now a shaman and healer in her own right, Vixen who was once Corin learns that the one human who mattered to her in her previous life, then a fellow University student, has come into possession of an old shyani book, and the more fanatical shyani and weyres will stop at nothing to reclaim it and punish Jared. Even though it means going back into the lowlands and facing Jared as a woman, she can’t bear to just look the other way. This should be a short visit, just long enough to see the book into the proper hands and make sure Jared will not be killed for having it, and then she can return to the shyani community that has accepted her as their shaman. And, of course, her feline best friend Dayr insists on coming with her. But Jared is now a Lord, with considerable wealth and power, and his response to her presence isn’t one she expected. After years living with the shyani, she sees everything around her from a new perspective, and that makes it difficult to keep to the plan of making as few waves as possible. As an honoured guest in a highborn house, with only Jared aware that she has ever been anyone else, Vixen finds herself questioning where she belongs: with Dayr and the shyani, who accept her gender without question but have to make allowances for her differences, or with humans, in the culture she grew up in even though her past would mean a major scandal? *** Trigger warning: there are scenes of Vixen's previous life, which include some difficult moments and culminate in an (obviously unsuccessful) attempt at suicide before she finds her true self and a better life. Please be careful! This is the ONLY reason for the "Traumatising Content" tag.*** Complete stand-alone novel, 96K words. Also available on Scribble Hub and as a free ebook.
