WARNING: This novel is in the process of a rewrite as the early chapters are rough and the later chapters are too slow with the progress. This was my first attempt at a novel and it sucked but I didn't want to throw this aside as I knew the outline all the way until the ending. The rewrite will basically be one year (in the timeline) later where there's more action. 

Ryan Carter, a 26-year-old man, finds his ordinary life disrupted when a mysterious white rift appears in the sky over his city. As the world reacts to this strange phenomenon, Ryan is swept up into the unfolding events, which will drastically change the course of his life.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What this novel is about:
This novel is a more realistic take or my attempt at it on what happens when a modern world gets hit by gates, magic, mana, etc.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What to expect:
This novel will be very long, there will be a few slice of life elements but not the point where it becomes a slog. Currently, at chapter 35, the novel is making way for why Ryan's reason to becoming stronger. I don't want to have a MC who suddenly wants to gain power without any solid reasoning. There will be no harem. The word count for this novel will be above 1 million words. It might seem like there's too little chapters but most of my chapters are 2k words minimum. I'm currently at 2400 words per chapter average.

New chapters are released daily at 6:00 PM UTC+8.

The Inevitable End

The room fell silent as everyone snapped to attention, the drill sergeant's presence commanding instant respect. I straightened my back, my heart rate quickening with anticipation. This was it—the moment we'd been waiting for, the shift in our training that would prepare us for the unimaginable challenges beyond the gates.

"Listen up, recruits," the sergeant's voice boomed, cutting through the tension. "We're taking your training to the next level. You'll be using state-of-the-art virtual reality simulations to prepare for the unpredictable environments inside the gates."

My mind raced at the implications. Virtual reality? It made sense, given the otherworldly nature of what lay beyond the gates. How else could we truly prepare for something so alien?

The sergeant continued, his words etching themselves into my memory. "We'll focus on groups of ten. Some gates have that low of a limit, but it also means the difficulty of that gate is significantly lower."
