About

Book 1 is only available on:  Amazon / Kindle Unlimited He needed a sword. The system gave him a pen. Klaid is a former kendo prodigy who treats VR as a ruthless economy, optimizing every second to pay for his mother's medical bills. To him, Crown of Destiny is a spreadsheet to be solved. But his cold efficiency backfires on launch day. By exploiting a lore paradox, he is cursed with the one thing he can’t understand: the Legendary Poet class. It is a power-gamer's nightmare. The class relies on the very thing Klaid discarded long ago: emotion. Now, trapped between a dying mother in reality and a useless class in-game, Klaid must do the impossible. He must learn to feel again. Not to heal. To turn anguish into DPS. Warning: The story is told through Klaid’s perspective. Initially, the prose reflects his worldview: cold, transactional, and hyper-logical. As the story progresses and his class forces him to engage with art and emotion, the narrative voice will evolve with him. What to Expect: Rational Protagonist: No deus ex machina. Problems are solved through logic and exploiting game mechanics. Hybrid Combat: High-level Kendo skills meet reality-warping word magic. Logic-Based Magic: Spells (or rather, poems) reward semantic understanding rather than brute force. Narrative Crafting: Forging items by rewriting their lore and history. Permanent Consequences: The MC permanently alters the game content. Progression: OP to weak to strong to OP No Harem. Release Schedule: 3ch/week   (M-W-F usually) *inspired by The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor and Overgeared
