This Young Master Just Wants To Go Home
Ethan was never aiming to be a hero. After his awakening he had come to terms with just being a D-rank hunter scraping by in a world where rifts spit out monsters and riches in equal measure. But when a raid goes sideways, he finds himself trapped on a cultivation planet, surrounded by arrogant young masters, ancient sects, and people who think duels to the death are a perfectly reasonable way to settle disputes.To make matters worse, a mysterious system starts handing out quests with one promise: complete them, or never return home. Now, Ethan is stuck playing along, dodging power-hungry cultivators, and somehow gaining a reputation he never wanted. Everyone thinks he鈥檚 some hidden genius, but he knows the truth鈥攊t鈥檚 all the stupid systems fault!He didn鈥檛 sign up for this. He doesn鈥檛 care about immortality, grand daos, or face-slapping arrogant nobles. He just wants to go home. But with each quest dragging him deeper into this world鈥檚 power struggles, escape might not be as simple as he hoped.The story will start off reasonably grimdark, but I plan for it to be more of an easy read once everything is established. Let me know what you think!
