Schedule = Hiatus - May post a chapter or two at random during the hiatus.
Earth, 2040: An alien spacecraft crash-lands, bringing with it a disease that transforms humans into undying monsters. There is but one way to slay these abominations—a bullet forged from the debris of the crashed spacecraft that turns anything it touches into lifeless metal statues. A soldier, Lieutenant Jin Shu, and his platoon are tasked with rescuing survivors from a ruined city. Disaster strikes when the platoon is assaulted from all sides. Lieutenant Jin Shu is struck by a monster's claw, causing his weapon to backfire, injuring him with the bullet that was meant to be his hope for killing the abomination. Yet, in a cruel twist of fate, this will be what takes his life. As he slowly transforms into a lifeless metal statue, he takes a look around to see nothing but death and devastation.
Jin Shu awakes to find himself and his weapon in a new world—a world of cultivation—as a runesmith. Jin Shu will use his newfound knowledge of runesmithing to create a unique blend of modern weaponry and runic weaponry, creating something this new world has never seen before.

This novel is a mostly lighthearted tale of a man reincarnated from a world on the brink of extinction. With his weapon, he will take his second chance at life and enjoy journeying with his gun and a fluffy winged companion through the new world he finds himself in.
It's a bit of a slow start, but please give it a chance; it may surprise you.
(It's definitely surprising me... I have no idea what I'm doing... someone help me...)
