LOCATION: PLANAX VILLAGE
'Dugdugdugugudgudugdug' looking from afar, you will thought a sandstorm is coming heading straight to the village. The ground is shaking violently like there is an earthquake. Karsus, the head guard of the village sound the alarm when he noticed the accumulation of dirt that is heading its way to the village and prepare his men from possible assault.
As it gets closer, Karsus noticed that someone is in front of the dust running from the moving dust. Looking closely, he sees that behind are horde of 4-legged monster resembling a cow ( or rather called Kawkaw!) is chasing someone in front.. As it get closer and closer, he recognized a familiar face from the village and finally recognizes who he is.
"Aaargh! %#^$^#$# .Crap, not again. Okay, everyone form a shield wall now!",Karsus grunted, "and make a way for that boy!" Karsus added.
"aha, hah hah... Please make it.. please run as fast as you can.... you can do it.... Almost there... almost there..... Here we go... I'll show you who is a better runner, the fastest of them all... c'mon.... here we go.... You're almost there Julius, wahhhhhhh! Heeeeeeelp meeeeee fatheeeeer!", Julius shouted.
As soon as Julius passes the warriors, Karsus shouted to the army,"PREPARE FOR THE IMPACT!"
'Buuggssshhhh, Boom! Boom! clang!, clang!, clang!', a loud sound erupted upon clashing on the shield wall.
"Ngarrrk, Ngaaark", several Kawkaw stumbled upon impact from clashing, despite being low level monsters yet feared by locals because of its aggressiveness and are quite violent.
"Now lets prepare for our tonight's meal! Everyone 'FORWARD TRUST'!",Karsus screamed.
'Tsuk, Tsuk Tsuk!', one by one, Kawkaw fell down. For these men, this events are somehow ordinary. From time to time, many monsters tries to attack the village looking for prey. Some are strong, mostly are weak. But over time, they quickly adapt and manage to repel any monster coming by.

"Yes farther, and I'm sorry.... I hope you like my present.... Happy Birthday!" Julius bow after.
"Ow, so that explains why! Well thanks.... But not!(He almost got me).. You will swing the sword 5000 times tomorrow for making a mess at the front gate!", Karsus squinted is eyes while poking his finger to Julius' forehead.
"Of course Sir Captain, 5000 times, Sir yes Sir!" Julius excitedly said and saluted.

"Sir yes sir!" Julius shouted.
"Your mother also wishes to see you, you are relieve now and go get cleaned boy", Karsus said.

Paradigm Shift - New Beginnings
The known universe is facing an invasion from a foe that can rewrite the natural laws and that will destroy everyting we know. Derrick is ripped from his world and sent to the newest incursion point of an enemy he doesn't even know exists. He is the hail mary or kitchen sink of the universe and it will be up to him to adapt to his new world and become strong enough to survive and to save the universe. ********* Author's Note ********* This is my first published book so feedback would be appreciated. A couple of caveats. First this story is about the details, if you don't enjoy reading and finding the easter eggs or just like to speed read through the chapters you will probably not enjoy it. Second for those that do not like the Harem tag I just want to state that this is going to be a matriarchal society and the women will outnumber the men 5-1. That being the case and because of the culture that I imagine would arise from this I felt it fair to put that tag out there. However, the main character isn't going to be picking up women left and right. This is not a typical harem story. Image was googled so I have no rights to it
