Scratches

This book is about what really happens after an ordinary person travels through time. He traveled through five civilizations - steppe tribes, unified empires, commercial city-states, theocratic countries, and small marginal countries. Every system has its benefits, and every system has its costs. Everywhere he tried to do something, he hit a wall everywhere. He is not a genius. He makes mistakes, he avoids things, and he always feels that the problem lies in the environment—that it would be better to change places. The reader will see this sooner than he does. This is not a comeback story. This is the friction between an ordinary person and a huge world. What did he leave behind? Maybe a very shallow scratch. It might be gone if it rains. But it existed. No cheating, no farming, no harem. Slow-burning, realistic, literary but not pretentious. If you are tired of reading time-travel novels where the protagonist becomes a marquis in three chapters and becomes an emperor in five chapters, you can read the story of an ordinary person being beaten up in reality in a different world. He's more ordinary than you think. The world is more real than you think. Concept: What can ordinary people leave behind when they travel through time?
