Author's Destiny in The Novel

I didn't know how long I laid there for, convulsing, but after a seemingly infinite period of time, the pain gradually started to fade away as I was left with a huge chunk of jumbled memories. Unable to differentiate my memories from that of the person called Asher Gradivus, I blankly stared up trying to make a sense of what was going on. As a matter of fact, I already knew what was going on. It was just that the situation was a bit hard, sudden, and mostly confusing for me to take in

Gradually, I lifted my body with my back covered in sweat, up from the bed I was originally sleeping on. As an author whose job was to write novels based on similar genres, I couldn't be any more familiar with the phenomenon that was happening right at the moment. That's right, I had transmigrated into a new world. And not just anywhere at that, but the world in the novel I had written myself, my masterpiece 'The Path to Transcending Mortality'.

In a daze, I simply sat there trying to clear my mind of any thoughts, as the memories of both my past life and those of Asher Gradivus started to organize in my brain. After an unknown period of time, I sighed lightly and came to the conclusion that I had no choice but to accept the fact that I was now the existence named Asher Gradivus.

It seemed the synchronization process had slowed quite a bit after it reached over ninety percent. I weakly sat up from the bed as I made my way into the bathroom. After standing in front of the mirror, I carefully scrutinized Asher's- no, my own body. I was currently 16 years old. Approximately 182 cm tall, I had hair as dark as a starless night and blue eyes, deeper than the ocean itself. With all my body proportions and muscles well-defined I could definitely be counted as someone slightly handsome by the standards of this world.

Ever since the [Mana] had been released into this world 70 years ago, major changes had occurred in almost everything in existence. Each and every single species had undergone an evolution. An evolution, different for each species, as they and their bodies adapted to mana. Even if a human was simply unable to utilize mana, their lifespans had already been increased a lot. The aging process was slowed down and the maximum lifespan of an average human was now declared to be 150 years old

With mana, not only did the lifespans of humans increase, but there was also a change in their physical characteristics, namely their appearances. Mana seemed to mold and improve an entity into something better than they were before Mana came into being on Earth. Everyone's appearance seemed to have taken a notch or maybe a few upwards.

While my appearance could be said to simply be slightly handsome according to the current standards, if we were to measure my current looks to the ones from my previous life then I could easily be counted as an extremely handsome man.

As for plants, some became extremely treasured materials, whereas others evolved into carnivorous and often, quite dangerous ones. The most troublesome matter was the evolution of animals, which transformed quite a huge population of those species into aggressive magical beasts. Turning into bloodthirsty beasts, they gained strong physical prowess, thus turning them into strong and challenging opponents for humans at the same ranks. The magical beasts had a huge advantage against a human of the same rank, not to mention the wild instincts they developed which made them not someone to be trifled with.

As it can be seen since the beginning of time, Humans are creatures who prided themselves on the intrinsic use of their brains to plot schemes and devise various methods to survive. While Humans weren't the strongest, they certainly made use of their high intellect to find ways to counter the strong. Stronger weapons were made by imbuing mana into them, combined with the new materials that emerged after the release of mana, each stronger than the previous.

These new weapons were strong enough to easily cut through the hides of these magical beasts which were harder than some ordinary metals before the release of mana. While I was thinking about all this, the synchronization rate kept on going up as the last bits of information slowly and calmly started to flow into my head.

[Please check your new status]

After hearing that message which was automatically conveyed to my brain instead of a physical voice, I became eager to check if there had been any new changes to my status after I took over the body of, and became Asher Gradivus.

"Status", I muttered even though it wasn't absolutely necessary to call it out, as people could simply think of it in their minds and wish to see their status.
