Throne of Seal: An MMO Gamer Becomes a Knight

Also known as I Think of Xingyu as My Teacher, but He Thinks of Me as His Son, The World's Protagonist and I Really Aren't Brothers... (More alternate titles to come.)

MMO gamer Yue Shen unexpectedly finds himself transported to the world of Throne of Seal. Fiercely competitive all his life, he refuses to join someone else's party and plans to form a Demon Hunt Squad of his own. But life has other plans: before he knows it, he's accidentally poached members from the protagonist's team. I'm really just an ordinary NPC. Can't you all go suck up to Long Haochen instead...?

This novel strips away the cumbersome worldbuilding of the original Throne of Seal and converts most of its mechanics into a game-style framework. First, to give everyone a lighter, more relaxed reading experience. Second, to make it more satisfying to write-and just as satisfying to read. Third, to avoid padding the story with too much pointless filler. (If it's not your cup of tea, please go easy on the criticism.)
