About

Aria didn't mean to hit 'Yes' on the mysterious  Start a New Game? screen that appeared one day, even at her lowest point. But one accidental click later, she awakens in a world where monster stones are sought after to fuel society’s technology, and the System dictates your living purpose. Not only that, but she also encounters Park Se-yeon - her husband from her previous life. The problem? He has no idea who she is, and he's nothing like the man he was before. A combative clash involving the two causes Aria to be assigned a forbidden Class: Codebreaker. Then - because things couldn’t get any worse - that same Class triggers a System ban to the Graveyard Realm: a cutting room floor full of unfinished, malfunctioning environments and twisted monsters. They're glitchy and unstable, unbalanced in power-scale, and drop some of the best loot you'll ever lay eyes on. Which they’ll need, because the pair can’t leave until they can pay for an appeal. Luckily, not only does her restricted Class grant powers beyond anything the System intended, but she can also exploit barriers, detect hidden mechanics, and breach forbidden zones no one else can reach. If Aria wants any chance of exiting the developmental hell of all things failed and forgotten, she'll need to learn how to live up to her Class - and quickly. 𖣂 What To Expect 𖣂  ☆ Soft LitRPG - there are visual screens, soft stats, acquisition of skills and advancement of powers through milestones and loot, but there is no traditional EXP or hard numbers/calculations. Action scenes involve homebrewed monsters with unpredictable power levels.  ☆ Psychological dark romance with a morally grey Yandere male lead, delayed/slow emotional burn. Only one love interest. Non-descript sexual content; explicit scenes on Patreon.  ☆ Weak-to-strong progression of female MC, powerful companions.  ☆ Well-paced between character/world interactions and cinematic action scenes.  ☆ Set in an Arcanepunk-esque time period with little to no usage of mechanical weapons such as guns, but lots of magic/skill usage and technological advancements. 𖣂 Sorry cuties - this book is on indefinite hiatus for the time being. I’m trying to not stretch myself so thin and trying to enjoy daily life, I am still writing, just not on a consistent basis at this time 𖣂 Yandere is a Japanese archetype used to define a character whose love, admiration, and devotion is so strong that it is expressed as an excessive obsession and possessiveness. They are often seen as characters that are crazily in love with someone. There are many different archetypes and "levels" of Yanderes.
