Kazuki is a depressed high school student with everything going for him but nothing to show for it. Plagued by his lack of achievements he suddenly finds himself in another world - but there's a catch. Kazuki can only access this world when he is asleep and he must eventually return to the waking world. This is a cycle that repeats every night. The power granted to Kazuki in this other world allows to him to live life achieving those things he always thought was out of his grasp. This divide of a painful real life versus an ideal fantasy life leads to hedonistic dissociation as our protagonist tries to escape his unlikable real life, but he can not eschew the real world forever. Will Kazuki's escapism swallow him whole? Will he be able to maintain his two polar opposite lives without becoming dysfunctional? This is Kazuki's path and story - and it won't be straightforward. Author's Note:This is my first ever story. I'm all ears for any (constructive) criticisms! Please (constructively) tear it to shreds to that I may improve. That being said here are more details about the story and fantasy world: 1.) It's fantasy setting is fairly similar to other isekai LNs. Multiple races, adventuring, magic, guilds, etc... are all included. 2.) Our protagonist is a powerful (but not OP) mage in this fantasy world. 3.) This story features some grimdark-esque elements: there is no shying away from more realistic depictions of violence or similar dark elements. As a new author I am unsure if it qualifies for the Grimdark tag. Feel free to let me know what you think! 4.) This story is supposed to be character and character growth driven, not just with our protagonist but his adventuring party members as well. I strive to create characters with depth.
