《My Otherworld Gate》Prologue
Advertisement
“Ugh… This is the 7th volume already, why can’t this idiot get some character development already?!"
Dumbfounded, I exclaim my shock at the protagonist of this light novel I started reading the other day. It's getting to a point where I can feel actual pain. Could it just be me being weird? No, normal people wouldn't be this dense, right? If this goes on, the 8th volume might even have its own gravitation field!
"Whatever, I'll finish reading this for now. There isn't really a much better alternative in these types of novels left for me"
I feel like I'm going crazy from reading these, though, I even started talking to myself in frustration before noticing! I'll probably become just like these low-effort main characters if this keeps going on like this. I wish I could just wipe my memory and re-read some of my old favorites again...
Anyway, it’s getting late, I should read the rest in bed, I guess. I change into my sleepwear and go to the bathroom to brush my teeth.
I return to my room, but when I enter the door, everything turns black.
“Hah?!”
And endless space of black. I turn around, but the door I just entered vanished too. A dream? Did I fall asleep while reading?
A girl. In this endless space of black, a single small girl is standing right in front of me. No, she is a few meters away…? She is a small child, maybe 12 or 13 years old, and has blue hair that is long enough to touch her feet. She is only wearing a thin white summer dress.
I feel like she is saying something, but I can’t hear her. No, it’s not just that. I can see her face, but I don’t know how it looks… Looking at her feels like waking up from a dream, not being able to remember any of its details.

[Initiating Novel Entry...]
Novel Entry? Maybe this is what the girl was saying?
[World is being adjusted...]
Eh? it's being adjusted? This seems to be a dream, the last thing I did before dozing off was read a light novel... so this is a dream where I enter a fantasy world like in the story?
So, this is the god I meet before reincarnating?
[Fixing inconsistencies...]
At least my dream seems to care about that. Ah! There is also a slight chance this isn't a dream, I should probably not do anything too crazy just to be sure.
‘Umm, hello.’
I try to call out to this (maybe) god since I have a few questions. But nothing comes out.
Hm? Did she just smile?
[Final touches on the world system...]
Oh, seems like things are finishing up!
[Please be ready to be transported in 5!]
Here it comes! I wish I could’ve asked a few questions first to the girl though…
[4...]
Hmm? Girl…?
[3...]
Was there someone here? Why did I…?
[2...]
This dream seems to be messing with my thought.
[1...]
I really hope this is some cheat isekai like the one I was just reading!
[!!!]
Guh?!
Everything turned white for a moment and...
* * *
"---------?"
"-----,-------"
"----------"
"-------!"
Uwa! My head is spinning, it also somewhat hurts, not actually everything hurts!
Right, I was just reading a novel when I dozed off. And then I was in a black space before everything turned white!
I seem to be in a classroom, looking at myself I am pretty fat. Moving my body feels weird too.
But I have a much greater problem... I... don't understand what anyone is saying! Could this be the novel I was just reading? If this is an isekai shouldn't I at least get some Japanese language skill or something?!

Good Guy Necromancer
Necromancers are murderous, repulsive, utterly ungodly creatures. And then there's Jerry. Jerry is a novice necromancer who treats his undead warmly, seeks to befriend people instead of harvest their bodies, and doesn't mind cracking a skull or two when needed. He genuinely is a good guy—too bad nobody believes him. Jerry tries to settle down, wanting nothing but a peaceful life for him and his undead—and, when that doesn't quite work out, he sets out to adventure. He will make friends, each unique in their own way, and together, they will travel through a variety of striking environments; from a tiny village, to the land of the dead, to a jolly archipelago, to a kingdom on a beanstalk. To save a world that shuns him, Jerry must stand against a large organization of arrogant, mighty wizards. He strives to become stronger while maintaining his kindness, only to realize that, maybe, gentle hearts make the greatest necromancers. This is the story of a delightful man in a harsh world—full of warmth, action, and wise-cracking bone puns. Chapters are usually 2-3k words, and updates are 3/week: Mon, Wed, Fri. If you're looking for another fun, action-packed adventure, check out Cultivator vs. System by yours truly, available on Kindle, KU, and Audible. But read Good Guy Necromancer first.
8 138Project TheirWorld: Book Two - Tatterskin
**IMPORTANT: Because I am trying to reconcile some of the consistancy issues due to unexpected changes in how I've decided to write the story, this story is to be renamed/reordered. I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience. The Tutorial (completed, but unedited) is now to be concidered as Book One of Tatterskin. Tatterskin will contiune without real inturruption, though "Book Two" is really going to be the rest of the series with multiple volumes. Sorry guys! I've gone and brought the chaos of my real life into the storyverse T-T. ----- Dassah Graydon was just another human woman looking for adventure in her life when she moved to the academic floating continent, the Enclave. But while she wanted to escape her mundane reality, she quickly discovers that her life there – with the exception of all the crazy aliens and the unusual setting – was no different than her life on Earth had been. After spending a couple of months getting used to the place, she finally got the chance to play the popular new VRMMORPG, TheirWorld. As she is drawn deeper and deeper into the game, however, she begins to realize that her in-game life is far more connected to the happenings of reality than she could have imagined. Finding herself in the middle of a conspiracy that threatens her life and the lives of the people around her, Dassah must decide whether she allows herself to be a puppet, or she finds the determination to become the master of her own fate. This is a Project: TheirWorld story, and there is a prequel story, The Tutorial (completed, but unedited) but if I am doing my job, you won't need to have read that to enjoy this one. ____ The story will usually update once a week, sometime on Fridays JST. The updates on Royal Road L will be about 1 chapter behind my main WordPress site found here: Project: TheirWorld. This will change, as the WordPress site will have holiday releases and RRL will not. Thank you for reading, and the support! :) ____
