《Re: Rise of a Side Character》Prologue
Advertisement
I Died, I most certainly died.
I have from a young age belived that death is the end; no heaven, no hell, no samsara. Just death. The disappearance of mind, rotting of flesh, decay of bones and eventual death of existance. I thought I had denied relegion after what it had done to my family.
That is why I'm slightly annoyed at my self right now.
WELCOME TO THE AFTER DEATH!
When I saw the obnoxiously big words, and I mean so big that it transends imagination, I felt happy that there was something after death, relieved even. To me who had prided himself in doing what he says he will and not breaking morals, this was dissapointing. I was dissapointed in myself.
'I guess there's a limit to resolve when it comes to death'
As a modern man living in south Croydon, death is a foreign concept to me anyway, or was anyway. The closest I've come to death was when I saw my Grandfather's dead body (natural causes). I think that renforced my fear of death, instead of praying for his soul like the rest of my highly religious family I started to continue my karate practise in ernest, so not to die in a mugging.
THIS IS THE FIRST SOMEONE REACTED LIKE THIS!
'Shut it'
Ironicly it was my karate practice that lead to my death. Well not exactly but it was related.
Walking home from college during early december, the brave hero hears a damsel in distress. Rushing to the noise in hope for a girlfriend, he finds a man pushing down a women, a woman being pushed down and various other nefarious looking men guarding the area.
You spot a "Rape?" scene.
Fight?
Run?
Hide?
Call for help?
Normally you pick one of the last 3 when you see a group, but seeing a women treated badly brings back bad memories and the recent karate practise had strengthened me. So I charge.

Do I die fighting the flunkies? No they were quite weak. Do I die being stabbed from behind after letting down my guard? No I'm not stupid. A falling meteor? Wish I was.
After felling the brute pushing down my prospect girlfriend... The bitch pulls out a knife and stabs me... repeatedly.

Bat shit crazy ho, I didn't even kill him!
Anyway
Monologue over
'Sorry you can speak now'
...
'Heyyyy~'
*Oumm*
Pick one dipshit, not many get to Plane:
Oya? Did I make it angry?
Thinking/zooming in on the [Plane] many more words appeared before me: [Voldtranger] [Gulvine] [Upyouranus] [Bulvikar] [Rashmon]... mostly bullshit but there were some I recognised: [Cocytus river] [Purgatory] [Tartarus] [Naraka] [Niflheim] [Gehenna] [Underworld]... and a few that I couldn't pick: [Nivarna] [Womb Realm] [Diamond Realm] [Kunlun Fen][Heaven Lake] [Cakravāla Heaven] and many more.
Looking at the ones I could not pick, I noticed that they shone brighter than others. It was not that big of a diference, infact is was a very small diference, only when you compared them to the crap like [Tartarus] and [Gehenna] do you notice it. Obviosly the stuff I could not pick were good stuff so I searched for something that was just below them in brightness.
I took my time. Found a handfull of words that were satisfactory but unfortunatly I didn't recognise them. Seeing as no one was stopping me I continued searching for one I knew.
Eventually I came across a curious one.
[Narutoverse]
Thinking of checking the details I zoomed in on it.
*Oumm*
Lol Plane: Narutoverse
Honestly... I just wanted to check.

Lilith, a woman who'd always thought of herself as a normal, down-to-earth kind of person, suddenly found herself caught up in all of the drama and changes. With the military wishing to pick her up and force her into becoming a supersoldier, the media obsessing over her, and the scientists salivating to get their hands on her, she really could use any help she could get. Thankfully, while the world still didn't make much sense, at least she gained some sweet powers that could help her survive, if nothing else.

The Fate Eater
What might a man really do if he found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as a dragon prince? How would he come to terms with his new nature, his larger-than-life family, the agendas of warring factions, and the destiny he never asked for? This is a story that intends to defy some isekai tropes, but play into others. It's mainly about exploring a rich hand-crafted world, full of its own history and mysteries. Its characters have their own lives and aspirations, and our protagonist is but a piece of the greater tapestry. This story is not about right and wrong, or good and evil. It's about a dragon-man being tested by fate, power, and time. It's about what it's like to live as an outsider who lost their home. But perhaps the most central theme is freedom. What does freedom really mean? What will it cost and how much might one be willing to pay for it? Does it even truly exist? Let's find out together.
