Lord of the Illusory Sea

(Not a System story. Traditional Western fantasy, multiple heroines, and a very slow pace. I'll update it bit by bit. If you find the writing and pacing readable, feel free to add it to your bookshelf. I'll do my best to offer something a little different...)

A good-for-nothing gaming addict from the 21st century transmigrates overnight to a fantastical other world?

Dragons, elves, beast-eared girls? Sorry, none of that from the start.

A little sister who needs constant care, parents who got into an accident, and a family flat broke. How did I end up with such a disastrous start, huh!?

And why is there a soul living inside my head? So it's not just apartments that can be shared, but bodies too?

The one bit of good luck in all this: Xia Zuo has a little talent and naturally awakens as a noble mage. Are things finally about to get better?

What's more, the soul in his head seems to belong to a mysterious powerhouse. Whenever danger strikes, uncanny mental spells help him escape disaster and overcome one obstacle after another.

But what does this person really want?

The sky splits open, the setting sun runs red, and an absurd truth finally comes to light.

Will he still press forward without wavering?
