   A normal start isn't about a major villain or a useless character. Garbage novels are ruining my life! Don't let him constantly provoke others, and please, no more characters where everyone's always causing trouble for the protagonist. Can't he at least have some brains? The same goes for villains. They're supposed to be members of a family, right? Can't they at least use their brains? Does having a background or connections automatically make someone brainless?

    Is this really going to be normal, my friend? An ordinary person transmigrates to a Western fantasy world, starting with nothing, hunting in a village, learning knowledge, and getting into a magic academy. I think my character is already quite normal, and his experiences are too normal, so it doesn't feel as dramatic or full of revenge or rise to power. It's just the typical behavior of an ordinary person transmigrating to a magical world. I know that writing in detail will be verbose, so I implore the experienced readers to be patient and give me time to fill in the gaps. I know that online novels are fast-paced; I used to read millions of words a day, only to forget them immediately. So now I don't like that fast pace and have started writing slower-paced novels. Let me break it down for you: In these 25 chapters: 1. The protagonist develops a cheat ability, able to distinguish between good and evil and divine sense (super memory + in-depth analysis + comprehensive perspective), which will be his main reliance in the future. 2. He learns hunting, which is jungle survival skill, the most reliable aid for future magic practice and survival training. 3. He learns alchemy, his main technical direction in the future, similar to elixir making. 4. He learns forging, which will allow him to forge his own weapons with his classmates in the future. 5. He learns botany, his main magic in the future, becoming a wood-type mage. 6. Established connections with merchants, securing future sales channels for goods. 7. Researched beer, providing funds for future mage expenses. 8. Discovered the legacy of predecessors, laying the groundwork for future abilities and stories. 9. Possesses hybridization abilities and understands the origins of various plants, providing ingredients for future culinary creations. 10. Introduced deities, laying the foundation for a future pantheon. In addition, befriended senior students, who will be characters in future stories in other countries (China, Maya). Researched soybeans and potatoes, prerequisites for donkey rolls, soy milk and fried dough sticks, and French fries. Vodka is a friendly communication tool for entering the Northern Union (Russians and Vikings). It's verbose, indeed verbose, I don't deny it, I know that writing in detail inevitably leads to verbosity, it's unavoidable, but nothing is written in vain, it's all foreshadowing and foreshadowing, I've dug a hole and haven't filled it yet 🥺
