About the new story

Added 2025-07-29 01:20:00 +0000 UTC

TL;DR: Easy going story about an OP, pseudo-looper MC. Looking for feedback.

Hey folks!

So I know I'm supposed to be resting, and I am, in sorts, as I'm having fun with the new story. But just in case the blurb didn't communicate what I'm going for well, here's a more informal and extended blurb.

The Pitch:

The vibe I'm going for is Beware of Chicken x Tower of God x looper stories.

The story is about an MC who's been Isekai'd a while back in a world somewhat similar to the universe of Tower of God, where every floor is practically a realm/world. The class given to him initially by the dungeon hadn't been that great, making him into a support (Courier) but things had gone bad in one of the earlier delves, and he was named a Custodian, a secret role which gave him the ability to return back in time whenever he dies (in the Dungeon only). At first, it only sent him back hours, but by the time he leaves, it's a month and a half. Unfortunately, this OP skill was given to him along with one condition, he had to reach pretty deep in the dungeon before he was allowed to leave. He had to finish the Initiation.

The story begins when he finally finishes that quest after nearly a hundred years of looping, and he wants to get a rest. He wants to grow some coffee, bake and farm a little, and just... unwind. He will pop-into the dungeon on occasion but for now, he wants to chill.

Why I'm pitching it:

While I've seen some people commenting nice things on the first chapter, I'm still a little worried and I want to have a good idea about how this story is received. No pressure if it isn't your style, but if it sounds interesting, I'd appreciate it if you gave it a shot. Again, no pressure, but this might decide whether I can continue giving this writing thing my fulltime or if I need to get back out there.

I want you all to see it first, and we'll see how it's received on RR in a week or three.

Thanks for reading!
