My name is Lu Bu.
Yeah, my name is quite special. I heard from my dead mother, that my family is the descendant of the Great Warrior, Lu Bu from the Three Kingdom. Be it true or not, I had been laughed and joked since childhood because of this specific name.
I am turning thirty this year, and I am a NEET. What is a NEET you asked? It means I am a person that is [Not In Employment, Education or Training]. In a Layman term, I am a rubbish in this life, with nothing special in me. All I still have in hand is the money my parents left for me before they went to die.
To be honest, I have no idea about why my parents leaving so suddenly, I heard that the Airplane they took got into an accident, and is still not found until now. They are dead since I am twenty-five, which means I had been a NEET for five years already.
Being bullied wherever I go, the only thing that could attract my interest is by playing more games, watching more TV and documentary channel, and read anything that I could land my hands on. Up to date, I dare to say that I have at least finished fifty thousand books, and completed more than a hundred games.
I got PS4, Xbox, Nintendo Wii, and many more different consoles in my home, I have loads of toys and even money that could allow me to spend without worrying about it finishing at all. Being left alone in this world without anyone at all, is lonely. My father and mother is the only child in their family, and unfortunately, their life never goes too far before they too passed away.
I used to try to date a beautiful female during my University period, but unfortunately, I am too ugly in her opinion, so I got rejected even before I managed to touch her hand. For now, all I could do is to relief myself whenever I felt in need. But after I had got even more and more tired of this all, I start to wonder about what is the point of me being still alive within this world.

I wish I could be like what I read from those Novels in the web, transferred into a different world with amazing talents, skills, and luck to obtain all those special treasures and beauty, while became strong until they ascend into an immortal. But like how a human love to dream, what is odd of me being reincarnated into a different world compares to winning a lottery.
Oh yeah, I did have this kind of mind before, and to check the possibility of chances between this two, I spend 100 bucks every time I went to the Lottery counter to buy a total of 10 different lucky pick numbers and see when would I get the Top Prize. After maintaining this effort for a total of two years, I managed to win the Jackpot prize of 200 Million, and I got even wealthier instead.
Every single day, I blame the world for making me so normal like others, because no matter how many money I have in hand, I felt that I had lost the motive to continue living. Since all my family members already not around with me, should I actually spends all the money I have, and go to die?
I think I should.
That moment, I withdraw half of my fortune and went to travel around the world, living in the most luxurious hotel, eating the most expensive foods, and enjoy the craziest sports. Bungee jumping, Paragliding, mountain trekking, and whatever you could think. After all, this done, I still have many remains within my bank, so I withdraw the remaining money and bring it along to one of the oldest temples in the world, to presents it to the Head Monk before I ask to be allowed to be dead.
"Kind One, why would you want to be dead?" the Head Monk asked, of course. But I answered him in a very simple sentence.
I have lost all the motivation to continue my life, I wish to be reborn again.
The Head Monk shakes his head a few times, as he continues. "This Kind One, go straight from this direction, and you will saw a tower high up towards the sky. When you reach the top, pray for the lightning to come and bring your soul to be reborn. You should take this piece of Engraved piece of Jade along your way, it will grant you a safe and successful journey to obtains what you want."

I grabbed the piece of Jade and proceeds to walk towards the direction the Head Monk speaks. With only some small provisions is prepared in my bag, I spend almost ten days walking towards the same direction and finally saw a high ten-storey height tower. I entered the tower and finally reached the peak. Since the Head Monk did mention something about Pray for the Lightning to come, I decided to meditate on the top of the tower and clapped my hand together as I wish for lightning to come and brings me away.
---------------------------------------------------
What happened?
I felt into a blackout after meditating for a while. Is it three days? Four? I have no idea at all, but before me, a pitch black surrounds all around me as I tried to see is there any floors around me. Wait, it seems like I am leaning on a ground instead of standing straight. I opened my eyes, and before my eyes, a seems to be historical European Buildings around me is seem well build, with myself leaning on the side of the building in an alleyway.
"Hey, Lu Bu! Being so lazy again? You should stop being so useless and start your life meaningfully!" another man that was resting beside me call my name as he advises me to stop being so lazy all the time.
"Where is this?" I speak, the moment the man heard what I said, his face became shocked. Lu Bu speaks! He actually speaks after I had known him for twenty years!!" that man stands up and run away in panic.
He mentioned knowing me for twenty years. He looked like twenty or twenty-one as well, does that means?
I walked towards the glass window on the building and looked at my reflection. All I could notice is that I had been reborn into a twenty years old male, with the same name and in unknown places. My facial feature is almost the same as previous when I am around twenty, but this new face seems more good looking compared to the old me.
Did I actually get strike by the Lightning and reborn into a new world? Soon. maybe after ten minutes if running around nonstop, the male returned to my side as he starts to speaks with me.
"Lu Bu, did you finally wake up after living in an eccentric mind for twenty years?" he said. But I immediately reply him by saying "I am not sure, I felt like just wake up in a totally different world. where are we now, do you have any idea?" Lu Bu question totally made this new friend of his laugh his heart out, but before he answers, he pointed on the Entrance Gate of this little town and speaks.
"I don't care what stuff you come out all of sudden, but it is the time we two need to works, so let us get outside of the city and I will slowly explain to you about everything." this friend of his stands up and starts to walk towards the City exists. Lu Bu pays attention to this friend as he walked away, and noticed that both of them actually have the same waist belt with a few different compartments to store different items.

Indomitable Marvel
-This is a wish-fulfillment story that is in the MCU universe and will follow the MCU in my own way. The goal is to blend my story in and around the MCU. -It will be a while, a very long while before I get to the actual MCU storyline. -The story may seem a bit slow depending on what you're after. -Updates will be slow. -He does not start op. -Be warned I'm a below-average writer, I need to work on my details and wording, and probably everything else. Expect quality fluctuations. -((( Useful feedback is much appreciated. ))) -This will have a harem since my last story didn't have one. --Expect badly written lemon scenes. They will be marked for an easy skip for those who don't want to read it. If you can handle all that, then welcome aboard. -The Asgardian Theoric is about to get a second chance. [[[ https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Theoric_(Earth-616) ]]] -The story starts before the MCU where he will grow his abilities on his way to becoming indomitable. -1st volume: Prologue -2nd volume: Troll War - (ch.12-59)-3rd volume: Hidden Forces - (ch. 60-???)-4th volume: Olympians-5th volume: Mutants-6th volume: MCU-7th volume: Darkness???-8th volume: ??? ___________________________________To help answer some questions people might have. - No beast companions and as of right now no plans for beast companions. (But then again Hela does have Fenris...)- No kingdom-building,- The beginning of the story puts a lot of people off because I didn't go the normal route people would like, and they don't tend to like the troll arc.- He also starts a little rash and seems a little weak because his powers easily drain him, some of this is explained later though and fixed by Gaea, but many miss this and only concentrate on the fact that he isn't being and doing what they think he should.- I should also explain that he has some memories that were locked away and then deleted because of his rashness. This was simply a way to end the whole locked memory thing, the Acanti soul was a plot point to give him future memories of the MCU, beyond that it served no more purpose so I got rid of all the other useless knowledge, He was in no way nerfed as some would like to believe.- I made him a little more emotional then I would like at the beginning, it was my attempt at trying to give him a personality after being criticized for the lack thereof in my last story. - Ruthless? I don't think so, I'm going more the route of a fair Mc. He'll do more of an eye for an eye type stuff, gender does not matter to him when it comes to this.- While the harem isn't the end all be all goal, it's true that he's going around getting women.- I do have a story beyond the harem though and will not focus too heavily on the harem beyond the obvious. Mostly he just goes around sleeping with them and beyond that is anyone's guess whether they stick around or not, I do try and make it feel a little more real, but it is a harem. ___________________________________ -I have also posted this story on Royal Road and Wattpad.
