Author Note: Important News + Bonus Chapter Incoming!

Hey everyone!

First off, I want to thank all of you for sticking around and supporting the story. A special shout-out goes to the readers who’ve regularly dropped comments—it’s because of your encouragement that I’ve made it this far.

Now, I’ve got some exciting updates! Over the past weeks, I’ve realized that the story was heading in a much darker direction than I originally planned. What started as a fun LitRPG with interesting twists gradually became too grim, and after spending time re-reading and editing, I found myself thinking: “Life's already hard enough—why make this webnovel grim too?”

This is my passion project, and I want to feel energized and excited about writing hundreds of chapters for you. So, I’ve decided to rewrite the story with a focus on making it more fun, lighthearted, and full of humor. Ethan, our protagonist, is getting a personality boost—think witty, unpredictable, and always ready with a comeback. I want you to laugh and enjoy the ride, not feel glum or tense after each chapter.

What will stay the same? We’ll keep the key elements like Skill Mimicry (with a few enhancements), the village of Hallowford, the Restful Boar Inn, and the overall setting. But the tone will shift to something more entertaining, with plenty of room for adventure and some potential romance (Ethan’s not destined to be a lonely bachelor, don’t worry).

Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site.

As for the rewrite, I’ll likely delete the current chapters and start fresh, or I’ll release a new book. I’ll let you know as soon as I finalize the plan! On release day, expect 2-3 chapters right off the bat so you can dive into the new vibe. The chapter length will increase too, with each chapter being 50% to 100% longer than the current ones. And for those of you who enjoy leaving honest reviews, I’ll be releasing bonus chapters as a thank-you for your feedback.

Also, I’m launching a Patreon! If you want to support the rewrite and get cool extras like advance chapters, exclusive content, and maybe even a world map, I’d be super grateful. Your support means more coffee (always a plus) and tools like ProWritingAid Premium to keep the story error-free. Every bit helps me stay focused and keeps the story flowing smoothly for you!

If you have any questions, doubts, or feedback, feel free to drop a comment! I’ll happily answer them and keep you updated as we go along.

Thanks again for being awesome readers. Keep an eye out for the rewrite, which should be ready within 7-10 days. If I release it as a new book, I’ll drop a link, or if I delete the current chapters, you’ll see the new ones rolling out right away.

Happy reading, and as always, drop those comments! Your feedback is gold.
