Hi there! It's been a long while!

  I know, I know. 2 years ago I announced an anime and a new version of this webnovel and woosh, I disappeared into the void.

  I'm really sorry about that. <(_ _)> (? ????????? ) <(_ _)>

  So many things happened and I couldn't pick it back. But it's different now!

  No more false promises and hope. New year, new beginning!

  I'm officially announcing the release of the new version of this webnovel under a different name.

  You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.

  I present to you -

  I kept the general outline and the concept, but pretty much everything else evolved. The writing got better. The characters have more depth and a real past.

  What to expect:

  A dark heroic fantasy with a depressed and alcoholic MC

  Different pov

  Diverse cast with different culture

  A realistic take on an isekai/transported into another world trope

  Chasing Shadows is the 1st book of this Isekai Ran series and should be around 70 chapters.

  Weekly release will be every Thursday, 6pm (UTC+4), starting February 29th

  Hope to see you guys again!
