Not enough ratings
Synopsis
This story is about a young man named Martin, who unexpectedly finds himself in a situation that he wants to escape from with all his heart, transported to another world. But instead of a backward fantasy world, he finds himself in a Victorian era with strange overlaps with the situation of the Second World War. Between ideological fanatics and unscrupulous magicians who want to try with all their might to find out why magic has no effect on him, he must find a way to escape this crazy reality and not break under it. But unlike other heroes, it is not only his lack of magical potential and fighting power that holds him back, but also his mental barriers and values that forbid him to kill. But what value does pacifism have in a world where killing is an everyday thing, can it be a way to save the world?

I can't give a rating since there's only 1 chapter but I actually found the concept really interesting; I think the setting was a bit risky and rushed... maybe a looser resemblance to WWII would be good? With the name inspiration and wording it felt kind of disturbing to read... definitely intense though. Maybe a slower/shorter introduction to things? Such as showing the MC's values and his life before revealing the other side? Shortening the opposing side's introduction and increasing the world building from the MC's pov would help the pacing and provide a sturdier foundation too. Oh yeah and the whole 'paragraph talking without knowing who's talking to who or why', that's an easy fix at a glance. The narration at the end from the MC's pov made me think of Nick Caraway from The Great Gatsby though, unfortunately the MC knowing these things about the other side introduces the plot hole of how he knows it. That can be fixed later though. I really do like the potential though, of course I don't know how close you want the story to mirror real life I still love the idea.
