Summary

The royal bastard of House Vasquer, Argrave, has changed after his stay studying magic at the Tower of the Gray Owl. The sickly man’s awkward posture and cruel behavior have been replaced with a neat dignity and acerbic wit. His listless life has found a path of undeniable purpose. Most come away thinking he seems to know too many details about too much. Few can claim to know his motives or his goals.

Behind the scenes, though, the primary contributor for an open-world RPG’s wiki battles existential dread and things far beyond his ken as he struggles to adapt to a grim, gothic fantasy world that he had the misfortune to claim as his favorite game. This is his tale.

#####What to expect from this story#####

This piece is a high-fantasy style story, featuring many of the species and surroundings one might expect to find in such a world. The cultures are original and well-developed, with the primary setting being a European-style feudal society. Warfare, fell beasts, and natural disasters are commonplace in Berendar, and take the center of many plots. The protagonist is a smooth-talker, but the world does not exist for him; he must struggle to gain power.

      Novels with very high-quality writing are generally boring so most people don't read them

        And tedious, people just want something simple and casual from webnovels

        I think this is a good thing .. like there are no annoying comments, no yapping, noone saying "where is my drug" "where is my daily dose"

        Logic often overshadows fun, which makes masterpieces llike this way rarer than they should

    I got this recommended in some other novel's comments. It's moniker being Gem among Trashes. Upped my expectations a lot. I'll probably catch up to the latest chapter by tonight and I can provide a review. See yaa

        Took me a d*mn while to catch up because every chapter has importance. Can't skip them even a little bit otherwise you will be left wondering, "huh? Who's this? Wait, what the f*ck is even happening? Huhh, why are they trying to kill each other?"

        It's good. I mean, hella good. I don't know how the heck this isn't in the top 5 in this site. The only bad point of the story is, the power system here is a bit vague(well, it might be that I am dumb but my point remains). The best part of the story being character development and world building. It's just marvelous. The writing and grammer are just mwaah chef's kiss. Plot is sometimes predictable but at the crucial moments, it becomes utterly unpredictable. The antagonists are written in a very well done manner. I do hope you give this story a try. It's slow but it's d*mn worth it

    Really want to try reading but don't want to start without knowing if it's in the middle of a big arc right now, at the risk of getting blue balled after catching up. Is the story in the middle of any major arc that I should wait for? Chances are high I'll like it so no need to worry about that.

      It's near the end. You should a wait a bit. I assume the story will finish within 650 chapters , if not, within 700 chapters

      I’m giving this a shot because you recommended it in primal hunter, lately bro’s yapping about slavery got me demotivated. Hope I find a diamond here tho🤞🏼
