Summary

He was once a simple boy, drifting aimlessly along with the flow of the world. But one day, he awakened to find himself being different from his usual self, finding himself now hosting the body of a newborn.

He had been reincarnated, that too as the sole prince and heir of the human empire. Now living in a world of sword and magic, filled with fantastical beasts, demi-humans, divine beasts, Goddesses and so much more. Life finally seemed to take a turn for the better for the reincarnated boy.

However, as always, reality had its cruel ways of disappointing him. His parents died shortly after his birth in a war to save humanity, subjecting him to the life of an orphan. All the people vying for the throne turned against him, looking for any and all opportunities to kill him, the last living heir to the throne. Fortunately, he had his aunt, his last living family, who helped protect him by becoming the acting queen but this came with the price of being holed up in his palace till his ‘awakening’ which would enable him to defend himself and survive in this cruel world…

Witness his tale of struggle, of valor, of love, of lust as he goes against his fate and destiny and embarks on a path that would lead him to the very center of the conflict, of the mystery, of the truth that spanned since the very creation of this world.

    the power system is absolute dogwater you cannot become a true god unless you are born as one mortals cannot go past the fake god realm and all fake gods are ants in front of any true god unless you have divinity which is something only gods can bestow

      That just clarifies that Gods were brought into existence as they were and are not just extremely powerful mortals like what we are used to see now a days, In my perspective this sort of system is better because it doesn't follow same ol demigod to god to outer god to supreme existence sh*t They are not bad but most novels are unable to milk them And some that do are extremely good like lotm So a reserved power system is way better though they introduced it in a sh*tty way and we here to read sm*t ,got good plot by mistake so we have no right to complain

      Author published on WN but terminated his contract and moved to patreön and amazon. So i don't think we will get updates since lightnovel websites don't deal with patreön exclusive content unless its really famous and this novel is not that famous

        Yeah he did a big overhaul because that other website isn’t big on sm*t, so he rewrote some of the sm*t and other stuff, and just recently got back to what he had released. So new chapters/content should be coming soon.

    Okayy, new people Here to taste the poison, Lemme tell you this novel is a masterpiece among smuts,It got the best of the best fantasy plot You will ever find... And you know another good thing It is a sm*t chapters are quite rare(there are a lot in the starting but they reduce after 70 ch) and skippable as sm*t scenes do not affect plot much but relations do affect them so your choice... Don't hesitate to give it a try and lastly bear with the depression in the first few chapters...

    This ain’t good I just found the author is now selling book 1 on Amazon if they find out about the story being here they could possibly sue this site for copyright Btw they use royal road which is a legal site for authors to sell their novels as books be careful when u add novels from that site Now that I think about it it would not be copyrighted but a true crime of piracy since author is actually selling his novel as a book
