A slow-burn novel, a real slow burn! If you’re impatient, skip ahead to chapter ten!!
Don’t overthink it as you read. The protagonist has no plot armor! (He’s just more like an ordinary person: no talent, no luck, no connections.) He doesn’t get much page time, so please don’t mind.
Demons and immortals are equals. Don’t think becoming a spell cultivator means you won’t have to work. Everyone gets a salary, but no year-end bonus. We’re all just pitiful wage slaves.
If you have a favorite character, say so. I’ll consider giving them more page time.
