Synopsis
WARNING:
I have to write two (potentially THREE) books before rewriting this one. So it's gonna be a long wait. If you want to support me, please don't use your Power Stones for this book and use it on "Return of the Woodcutter."
Thank you for your understanding.
___________________________________________________
The divine tree, Yggdrasil, links all the worlds in existence. It has granted the Fallen a new life and skill that resurrects him after each death. However, abusing this power may lead him to a fate much darker than eternal rest.
Follow his adventure as he starts from absolutely nothing. No weapons, no powers, and no memories. He will try his best to overcome the obstacles awaiting him in the dungeon created by Yggdrasil.
His sanity will be put to the test, forcing him to rely on humor to chase away the loneliness and keep his train of thoughts straight. Remaining true to his goal of regaining his life and humanity, he will repeatedly lose, die, resurrect, and despair.
But in failure lies the potential to learn and succeed.
"I am the Fallen, and this is the story of my Death before my Beginning."
WARNING:
1) The MC isn't smart and strong from the start, but confused and a bit goofy for the sake of character development.
2) The story is dark BUT I've implemented some... let's say comedy essential for the story and character development.
3) The book will sometimes have violence, gore, and obscene language.
4) I intend to see the story through to the end.
5) I will update the story at a pace of "when I feel like it" (meaning unstable for now.)
6) If you've read until this point of the synopsis, you have my respect and congratulation because I sure wouldn't have done that hahaha.

I haven't read one chapter, but your synopsis is absolutely hilarious 😂🤣🤣 I did read to the end and what you said totally rocks! Your book must be the best of the best with attitude like that! Fighting!
First impression for your first chapter was amazing.. The naration sure detail, i can imagine the place, how Chara dresses. The story PLot anti mainstream.. This is good story! I recommended for you all, have a good work!
I have quite a few laughs here. First, there are few typos but don't really hinder me to read. Story development flows well. It is not too fast-paced and just right. Character design. I say the male lead has quite got a funny personality. The other characters too are quite good. World background. It is set in a dungeon. And the author crafted it well, including the items and skills. Overall a great read already. Keep it up, author!
From what I've read so far, this story seems to be a very well written and promising start for a new author. I'd recommend you read this if you like fantasy, and are a stickler for proper grammar in your webnovels, but also just of you like rich worldbuilding and original takes on a few character archetypes. Sorry if this review is incoherent, but it's the best I've got in me currently.
The author's narration was grand and superb! I am quite jealous right now! If I can copy his skills, then I will rise from the ashes and conquer the world of novels! Huhahaha! BTW, Your story is unique and the attack to the genre was not common. An amazing piece of art! Good job!
Totally deserving of a five star if not more. Zero to none grammar errors. Updating stability excellent. I love the background transition of this story. It is clear that the author took out time to gather his thoughts. I can say that this is one of the best books that I have read on WN. Hey guys! When you check this out, remember to vote, drop comments, reviews, share and gift the author. This is truly amazing. Please don't drop, your story got me trapped TOTALLY.
Woah! Fellow author. Your book is hooking from start. I love bg, plot, and scenario. Dark Fantasy is one of my favorite genres. Hope your work be a mass hit in the future. Fighting!
This story is a true work of art. The plot is very unique and different to the things I've read in the past. Anything can happen, so the readers are always at the edge of their seats. Great work Author!
A funny take of the levelling genre. The MC made me laugh. I thought the world was well built and a lot went into building it. The story had a good pace and was easy to read. Looking forward to seeing where it goes.
Great work here! :D This is probably one of the best novels with humour I've ever read. The MC is totally likable and the world building is quite intriguing. Again, great work! :D
The Good: Do love a good levelling system. Found the MC to be quite funny at times. I like the world the author is trying to build, trying to keep it dark instead of happy-go-lucky like so many isekai types of novels. The Bad: The grammar and word choice mistakes are fairly common, but bearable as it looks like the author has done a good job editing over time! You can delete chapter 9 now... The Neutral: Personal, calling the MC "The Fallen" all of the time makes me think he is a thing. Considering it is a plot device though, I can sympathize with it. The author spent a little bit of time creating a simple RPG status/system for the MC, but we don't see it again after chapter 5. The levels in it should be simplified, Medium - Low, Low- High, those types of stats are confusing as we do not know if Low-High is better than High-Low or Medium-Medium. Maybe stick with a level number or something like number of stars along with a color, up to you.
Very interesting novel! Good story, solid character building, excellent synopsis. This novel has a lot of potentials. I love how the author inserts a little pun along with the story. It is fun and entertaining. I often laugh with myself when I read it. After reading for a dozen of released chapters, it has already hooked me up. Can't wait for more update. Thank you, author, for producing good work for us to read!
My first impression was: 'this author surprised me'. The writing was well penned and easy to read. They don't skimp on the descriptions and everything goes as it should. There are grammatical issues in it, but they're not so bad you can't continue. I'd advise that you maintain pace, but return back when you're free to edit. Good work.
Amazing novel...I read the first few chapters and it caught my attention to read further...The author's writing style is very well written... The story development is fantastic...The male character looked quite funny to me. but, overall the characters are well portrayed...Excellent work, Author!
The respawn system, the madness, the soul collecting, the dungeon feel, the monsters - they all give me such a "Bloodborne"/"Dark Souls". vibe. And I love that! This vibe is further perpetuated by the fact that the protagonist has no idea how that world works, so he has to guess certain things. He just feels so lost! Even the fact that there's an altar teleporting him around sends me back to those games. The only thing I would change... I would like the story to be a little darker, some jokes seem to spoil the general mood. I think the story would be fantastic with a more serious and grim tone! Overall, good job!
Great long chapters, and has a great plotline so far. I had a very enjoyable time reading and I believe the author did an awesome job so keep it up, writer!
In terms of plot and story development, I found this is an exceptionally adorable piece of work. And the interactions of our mc with others proves to be heartwarming, despite the literal fact he is a skeleton. Additionally, the world is a mystery in itself, which keeps me wanting for more. Aside from a grammatical error, comma after quotation marks at the end of the sentence, this was absolutely delightful to read, and I look forward to more chapters ! So keep up the good work, Author ! XD
A very well-written story. The author has done a great job so far. I personally find the story quite refreshing. Especially the small details. Overall, it is a story with huge potential. I highly recommend it. Keep up with good work!
This is a highly enjoyable and action-packed read. Wastes no time with pointless backstory and just throws the protagonist, along with the reader, straight into the quest to conquer ten levels of a dungeon which resides in a world between life and death. Filled with gripping battles, numerous deaths for protagonist which lead to restarting his quest to amusing effect and great humor throughout, making this a lively and entertaining read for any occasion. The protagonist is a mysterious character who I look forward to finding out more about. The writing quality is excellent. There is very little to fault with this one. It is definitely a must read system novel. Very enjoyable.
“A man must not be without shame, for the shame of being without shame is shamelessness indeed.” – Mencius Therefore even if it is shameful, I am giving myself 5 stars! By the way, if you liked my book or any other books on this website, don't forget to leave reviews. It seriously helps us improve our writing style and the quality of our work. USUAL AUTHOR SPEECH ALERT: Of course, don't forget to smash down that powerstone button (don't destroy your mouse please) if you liked my book. Don't forget to keep it in your collection ;). It's also good to know what you guys think of us. Good or... less-good opinions are welcomed. Keep it constructive tho. For me, keeping a close look at what you think is only second to my outline. It also helps with the motivation and blah blah blah blah... Until next time, Fallens.
