Terminal Fantasy

I thought transmigrators were supposed to start with a cheat skill after getting isekai’d  - so why do I get a countdown timer instead?!

I was enjoying the NEET life, filling most of my days with gaming, anime, mangas and novels.

One day, some asshole on an internet forum convinced me to try reading books in real life. Little did I know that this decision would end up costing me more than I could imagine.

[Soul Contamination] - Your soul shall be corroded in 1047 days.

Now, thrown into an unknown world filled with gods, monsters and magic, where hidden danger could await behind every corner,  I must fight for my survival.

Through blood, sweat and tears, sparing not a shred of effort, taking any risk necessary, I will crawl and claw my way through this world.

I will get stronger; I will find a way to remove my curses;

No matter what it takes…

I will survive this terminal fantasy world!

What to expect:

🕮 2.5-3.5k Words / Chapter (starting after the first dozen chapters).

⚔ Weak to Strong MC. The story is a slow-burn at start, but the pacing picks up greatly as it goes.

🌤 Grim fantasy (but not "grim darkness for grimdarkness's sake").

🖽 An RPG-lite system (very few things have exact numbers).

🗺 A living, breathing , deep, intricateworld full of secrets, wonders, and countless factions and powers, that don't care about the MCs.

👁👁 A smart MC (but not Sherlock-TV-show smart, no asspulls out of thin air).

🗹 Consistency over “what the plot needs right now” or “what I’d have hoped to see next”, for better or worse. I do strive to find balance between pacing and consistent event progression.

🗙 Definitely NO HAREM lmao

⚠ Content Warning: Everything. The world won't be purposely cruel to the MC, but it is a cruel world. Scenes may “fade to black” or be simply alluded to, but they'll still be right behind the corner.
