Disclaimer: Book has tragic moments, so if you have PTSD or anything of the like, you have been warned. In a world where the system is the universal truth, a person's class and skills dictate their future. Mariah has suffered the agony of two stillborn children, but this time, her child lives. However, he is no ordinary child—he is a monster: a Software Engineer. Born in a quiet village near a mostly peaceful forest, Peter is an anomaly. Gifted with IDE, a skill that functions like a software development environment, he can modify and evolve abilities at will. With unlimited potential from birth, mediocrity is never an option. Follow Peter, a modern mind trapped in a medieval high fantasy world, as he navigates a life filled with magic, adventure, and uncertainty "Will he be able to harness his limitless potential, or will the weight of his own power become his downfall? And when the world he cherishes begins to crumble before his eyes, can he hold onto his modern ideals, or will he be forced to change?" What to Expect - A slow-paced, immersive storytelling style blending character-driven development with event-driven progression - A LitRPG magic system, analyzed through the lens of a programmer protagonist - Progression fantasy with skills, classes, and levelling mechanics - A weak-to-strong protagonist Author's Note Disclaimer: English is not my first language, so I rely on the free version of Grammerly. Update Schedule: 2 chapters a week. Preferably on Monday and Wednesday in Indian Standard Time. I believe in free speech, so even critical reviews are welcome. If this isn’t your cup of tea, I’m sure you’ll find plenty of other books that match your taste. Thanks for checking out my work—have a great day and happy reading! If you are seeing this book on a platform that's not Royal Road, Webnovel (under my username), it is done without my knowledge and agreement.
