He wants to be a sidekick. He’s got his reasons, but the path ahead won’t be an easy one.Even if he’s lucky enough to become one of the few humans who are granted powers by the extraterrestrial system that’s been running things on Earth for decades, true battlefield support classes are rare, and old-school sidekicks haven’t been popular in years.But Alden’s got determination on his side…and maybe a murderous demon, too.***** This story has stats, but they don’t appear in the early chapters. This is a slow burning story. It’s character-driven. It will be long.**The protagonist is a child in the first chapter, but he will be in his mid to late teens for most of the story. Lots of violence. Some darkness. This is fiction for adults and/or young adults.**It will update once or twice a week once I burn through my backlog. Please consider supporting with a follow.

And I want it to be a life that’s worth living. How does that sound?”“What does ‘worth living’ mean?” Stuart asked solemnly.“Not endlessly shitty and full of horror,” said Alden. “Joyful. A lot of the time. I really need it to be that, or I’m not going to be strong enough to do anything at all.” This is what this novel is about, it’s about a normal person with normal needs and goals. This is what makes this novel stand out so much and makes you feel connected to MC. One of the best novels I’ve read, truly a masterpiece!Really good novel with a proper lawful good good-oriented MC, around the age of 15... Don't expect too much OPness, at least in the beginning, and also no Xianxia cultivation-like character who only cares about 'benefits'. The book is a modern novel, with modern mindset characters and a proper story. The majority of ranobes audience won't like this, saying how MC is weak, or how there is no big-brain giga Chad planning and scheming. This novel is NOT of that genre. Think more along the lines of a slice-of-life action novel. Superhero dynamics has been overhyped by the intro and doesn't play much role, YET... Will have more focus in the future but more largescale things are happening than Earth's superhero dynamic. Give it a try, its along the lines of Mother of Learning and The Wandering Inn. One of my fav books rn.PS- free to read on Royal Road, books pirated here may have formatting issue as well as typos which were later fixed by author.This to say this not a trash, "read cause I'm bored and need filler novel". This is potentially a future great. While you might want to let it cook for a while longer (despite it being ~1000 pages already) .when you do get around to it I think you will greatly enjoy it. To be prepared though its a slowburner so don't expect anything approaching instant gratification or constant "numbers going up" styled goings on. Instead you can expect a coherently crafted world, and challenges to the characters that leave behind realistic scars and consequences. Not to say the story is grimdark or emo, but much like say, The Wandering Inn, those tragedies, and sadness are as much a part of the human condition as the happy, or diligently training ones, and thus also present in the novel as appropriate to telling a compelling Story.I like this novel sadly something has gone wrong and you cannot read a good bit of the things that other people say when it's said through the system so that sucksBig meh novel. Only read to 24 and while it has potential, it’s been fairly boring so far. MC has little power, and little ability to gain power. Could see the author trying to leverage his niche abilities into OPness but it’s a stretch. Plus, state of MC and worldbuilding goes against general Ranobe enjoyment.SpoilerModern-day superhero story, except that in universe earth essentially signed over the planet to be slaves to an alien empire. Earth is called a “resource planet”, the system essentially provides access to abilities that aliens grant, and you gain super powers by signing yourself over as what could be generously described as “indentured servants”. The powers granted are only so the individual is of more use to the aliens. MC get the job of “Rabbit” which is named after the aliens cute, helpful pets. It’s a class that provides essentially servant staff abilities. The power to fold napkins better, set cutlery, etc. In exchange for those powers, MC is on call 24/7 to be summoned by his alien master who will use him to complete whatever job they want and send him off with some “currency” (not valuable to them only to humans). MC has no agency in his servitude, and the aliens barely treat them like people.Spoiler So what’s the point of getting powers are they fighting the aliens or doing anything if he wants to be a sidekick it means there hero’s and hero’s imply villains so what’s the deal?Spoilerhumans are so worthless to the aliens they don’t care what they do on Earth, only that they act properly when summoned (which is without warning at any time). So a bunch of “supers” who want to be villainous just act as villains on Earth. SpoilerTechnically there is a warning. For other non Rabbit classes, it's usually around a day or two, or at least a couple of hours if i remember correctly. It's just that Rabbits have a shitty 45 second pre summoning warning. Chapter 31 even shows how another Rabbit class first got summoned while they were taking a bath and didn't even have time to change into proper clothes. As always, i must declare that my reading comprehension is worse than a 2 year old toddler so correct me if i misunderstood the comment Spoilerthere is a purpose but its a bit spoilerly-- The superpowers were given by the aliens in order to increase the magic wielding people against a corruption while at the same time while giving magic the system fixes and seals the thing which can lead to the corruption and mutation into chaos energy. Now this threat isnt so serious anymore so the new planets are allowed to do whatever they want as long as they are willing to be summoned in emergencies or as employement, (for which they get paid) so it isnt really a slavery but at the same time there are no takebacksAny poineers?Then I see and evaluate.Obs: Don't forget to downvote me ╰( ・ ᗜ ・ )➝ back<<
