The Mercenary and the Adventurer

After an unexpected death, Zhao Ji's soul traverses to an otherworldly realm. This world teems with a dazzling array of beings: mages who cast spells through refined magical systems, priests who beseech their deities for miracles, and haughty knights capable of holding their own against armies. Yet it is also home to bizarre aberrations, hordes of monsters roaming the wilderness, and perilous magical beasts that bring calamity. Numerous non-human races, each with vast territories, vie with humanity for dominance over the world. Towering above all are the gods—whether born of nature itself or arising alongside sentient life—who observe all from their supreme vantage. Amid this mysterious and expansive world, humanity tenaciously pushes its expansion forward. Through adventure, warfare, exploration, and piercing the veils of mystery, Zhao Ji strides boldly into the fray, thoroughly relishing every moment. He loudly announces his arrival—though, admittedly, only when he's had a few drinks.
