Dying at a young age after a disappointing life. Mat thought he hit the jackpot when he got reincarnated on a tropical island as a baby. Here, his dreams of exploring mysterious lands and learning magic are a concrete possibility.

Everything changes when the outside world comes knocking. The world of Elydes is beautiful and magical, but also wild and savage.

The Guide blesses everyone and is impartial to all, people are not. Mat has the lowest starting point possible and those like him rarely go too far.

Will he let his humble birth define his life or find the determination to realize his dreams of delving into the arcane and explore lost civilizations.

He will have to use all his smarts and make the most of his headstart if he wants to gain the power to explore the mysteries of Elydes.

***

4 chapters a week Mon-Tue-Thur-Fri (10k words)

What to expect:

- More realistic take at reincarnated in another world.

- Slow and constant growth, with ups and downs. Don’t worry we’ll get to a smart ass-kicking MC if you are patient, but our MC will have to build his strength and determination one step at a time, getting back up after each setback.

- Not a grimdark story, but there will be a dark elements (there are a few sad chapters near the beginning of the story).

- Be ready to explore the mystical world of Elydes Collapse

    O prota é transmigrou e não sabe o básico, em uma pandemia na ilha. Claro que iam bater na casa dele, ele não se preparou para nada? Nem uma arma para se defender. O mais lógico nem na vida normal se entra num beco, até na rua vazia é difícil. Ele foi só para apanhar. O conhecimento dele básico poderia criar uma receita de comida e vender na cidade. O mais frustante é que ele ficou parado vendo o pai dele morrer. Reencarnou para nada, deixou o pai dele morrer. Mesmo sendo normal. E vai falar que o mundo dele não tinha referência de magia que ele realmente precisa de professor. Só Dragon Ball é o básico para magia. Não que todo reencarnado é foda. Mas conhecimento é poder. Ele não usou nada do que aprendeu de sua vida passada. Acho que até o pai dele foi burro, as coisas piorando ele também não fez nada para proteger a casa. Ficaram parados para ser abatidos. Milagre que foi os badidos fugirem depois de matar uma pessoa, bandido normal mataria todos.

    Долго но в целом норм только главнй герой немного напрягаєт

    Мусорный роман, я быстро объясню: Этот 5-летний mf рассказал своей матери о трансмиграции все дерьмо

    Как по мне норм тупо бло б єсли он вселился в єйо сна и сказал ето но на деле она єго родила и он просто сказал што помнит свою прошлую жизнт и для их мира ето похоже не редкость как м узнали из предположений алхимички

      That just makes me wanna read it more, I hate all the mcs who hide their reincarnation/transmigration/regression/whatever else, so I'll prob enjoy this way more than if he hid it

      Edit: what did I say that's causing so many dislikes? (I'm genuinely curious)

        This is because people like it more when all the mcs hide their reincarnation/transmigration/regression from others.

        Because that is the most dumbest thing a reincarnated/transmigrated/Isekai'd Mc would do. Especially in a world where magician/wizard/arcanist or gods exist, it's a recipe for a disaster.

          Except this is most stupidest dumb thing to do only when the mages/arcanist/martial artists/gods:
          1: pay attention to the MC specifically at this moment or constantly (which is pretty much impossible if you are nobody)
          2: constantly scan massive areas with their senses or something like that so they can hear this exact conversation
          A: actually listen, comprehend and filter through tens, hundreds, thousands other conversions simultaneously going on in the area of surveillance.
          B: believe in it
          C: give a f#ck.
          D: Do negative actions

    Well, quite interesting for me. Nothing is perfect and this one is elso far from perfection, but still better than many others. Development of storyline is bit slow, but still ok. What I like is that, even though there is the system in that world, you don't get the skills out of nothing, if you don't have any basic knowledge about them. It's like a system points you toward the correct way to improve you skills yourself.

    I don't like this novel even hate it to some point and there is a reason for it ---->>> ITS ONE OF THE CRINGIEST THINGS IVE EVER READ
    First--->>> The start is nice nothing new or out of order The mc awake as a child and gets a skill as fast as he gets up so so far good he tries to act like a child still good he plan to reach high lvls still good then suddenly he decides to teach 2 3 years old children ????? And the reason because they had puppy eyes I mean come on really come one what's realistic about it he doesn't spend time with his sister and spend times with other children ????
    Next--->>> there is chapter 2 then that's basically useless u won't hear anything from that side for several chapters (not from the 15 first chapters i read)
    Next--->>> father died I like that part nice plot still ruined by his behaviour acting like a real 5years old child then we have acting skill that's basically useless in the while story from dead dad part
    Next--->>> then he gets beaten and so dramatic about it another good plot wasted
    And many more he telling his mother about transmigration and... to training and ..... all bulshit

      MC was still a teen and even a sick teen with almost no outside world experience in his first life and what can a 5yo kid can do in a situation of adults. Its more realistic than ur avg op mcs who start to kill adults like radishes at younger age. There's a good amount of fantasy elements + realism in this novel with every chapter building up the story and author even said he will take time with story so I don't see what's cringey in it yea teaching kids maybe bad but he wanted to get xp

    "- More realistic take at reincarnated in another world."
    "- Not a grimdark story, but there will be a dark elements"...

    Haven't started reading yet but the description has me interested. Ever since I first watched "Grimgar: Ashes and Illusions", when it came out so many years ago, I've been hooked and have been searching for something grimdark+fantasy similar-ish. Plus with the barrage of generic isekai's (mostly manga/anime) being thrown it has only left a void.

    If anyone knows any grimdark fantasy stories with more realistic elements.


    Stories that don't shy away from the harsh reality of fantasy living...

    Please let me know!

      I have never ever read something so close to my own thoughts till now like this, You are awesome. You probably get a lot of hate comments if you drop comments with your own thoughts on other stories. So just wanted to say (if you do get) hang in there, your opinion is nice.

      "Something where the MC isn't some chosen destined to become the supreme master of all. Someone who is just another person living in that world; average in most ways with some things just a bit below and above average. Yet also becomes amazing in their own right."
      I was thinking along the same line from quite sometime but never really found something
      Grimgar and ashes were nice in the start but I have read latest releases and it kinda disappoints me

      Bro there's never truly an ordinary protagonist or average protagonists in online webnovels (authors try to make their protagonists as interesting as possible). So you'll probably always be disappointed in that specific note, especially when all we have nowadays are harem trash everywhere. You'll just have to keep settling for less

        I know that, that's why I had said searching. As well as stating what I typically see and what I would like to see. I wouldn't be searching if I found it; but I hope I eventually do. Maybe when AI develops more they can write amazing stories... And hopefully not takeover us. 😮

        It's not about only webnovels. Really ordinary protagonist more like separate genre and really really rare even in paperbooks. I mean novel about person(s) who have a story and this story make them special. If we talk about magic, special means more power in 90% cases. If we talk about reincarnation, mc special by default beacuse you can't be ordinary and have other world knowledge.

        Thank you for the suggestion. I have already read that novel into the CH 1000+. Beginning was okay, but the romance was too much cringe for me to handle. Anyway, I am looking for novels, not anime; since this is a site for novels. So any suggestions no matter the form of work is appreciated. Since animes are usually adapted from mangas, which is adapted from novels.

      Hello, friend. For web-novels i haven't found much of good quality, but I recommend you give "I became the pope, now what?" a try.
      It's not entirely grimdark, but a lot of the classic grimdark elements and themes are there. Corruption, abuse of power, betrayal, extremism, moral nihilism, hopelessness, slavery and abuse, racial and religious discrimination are just some of the themes explored.
      The setting itself is in many ways analogous to the "empire of mankind" from Warhammer, but on a smaller scale and in a more classic fantasy world.
      The MC does have three huge advantages (or cheats, as you said) over everyone else, and he's very much a "chosen one", but that doesn't really lessen his struggles or give him any victories for free.

      As for manga, if you haven't read "Berserk" you are missing out. It's just fantasy and grimdark condensed in it's purest form. Another manga to look into might be "Claymore".

      And for published authors, there's a metric ton of them who write fantasy with varying degrees of grimdarkness. Joe Abercrombie, Glen Cook, R.F. Kuang, Richard Morgan, etc..
      Even the Malazan books by Steven Erikson can have a pretty grimdark feel to them.

      The Wandering Inn could be right up your alley. It is one of the best web serials out right now. (make sure u read it on the author's website since Vol 1 was rewritten and I don't think Ranobes does not have the new version.)
