I'LL BE HOME SOON

Shadow rank ~#2103 in Drama↓157

This book was translated into English with AI assistance and subsequently reviewed and edited by the author. He told his family he would be home soon. Then Adam wakes beneath a sky with two moons. Stranded in a brutal world of living dungeons, deadly creatures, and an invisible System that rewards every victory, he has no map, no allies, and no idea why he was brought there. The System recognizes him as an anomaly—and the power growing inside him follows rules no one else seems able to see. His only connection to Earth is the wedding ring on his hand and the memory of the wife and young son waiting for him. At Greyfall, the last settlement before the Wild Verge, Adam finds shelter among frontier Seekers who make their living inside the wounds of the world. Under the guidance of a hardened old hunter, he learns to survive, descend into dungeons, and turn the System’s gifts into strength. But something is wrong beneath the Verge. Dungeon hearts are being emptied. Faceless figures carry the same mysterious mark. And the deeper Adam searches for a road home, the closer he comes to an enemy whose plans extend far beyond one frontier town. Adam is not a chosen hero. He is a husband and father who made a promise. No matter how many dungeons he must cross, how powerful he must become, or what stands between him and Earth, he will find a way back. Because somewhere beyond a thousand worlds, his son is still waiting. And Adam intends to keep his word.
