Starting as a Sentinel in a Borderland Fief

A slumbering dragon, a vanished race of fairies, a fallen elven civilization, and the ominous Star of Calamity rising high above—this is a world woven with fantastical wonders. From the morally ambiguous gods to the legendary mages wandering the earth, these grand narratives have nothing to do with Zha Ge, who has just been transmigrated into this realm. What could be more despairing than waking up as a lowly sentinel in a godforsaken backwater? As it turns out, plenty. Not only must he support a bedridden elderly woman who is his mother in name only, but he also has to feed a foul-mouthed, tsundere fairy that might as well be a talking black cat. All of this on a meager weekly wage of just thirty shillings. With circumstances as dire as they are, perhaps it's time to figure out a way to earn some extra coin—and fast.
