A Bug In Fate

Alden spent his entire life wishing to be isekai'd. A heroic death. A beautiful goddess. A second chance in a fantasy world. That was the dream. Reality had other plans. While recording a cat fighting a snake, he expected the truck to be what killed him. It wasn't. The snake got him first. His death should have been the beginning of a normal reincarnation. Instead, a single mistake during the process sent his soul to a world where he was never meant to exist. Umbersoul is a realm of cultivation, ancient ruins, forgotten gods, and unbreakable laws. Every living being is born with a destiny, their fate woven into the world's order from the very beginning. Everyone... Except Alden. He has no destiny. No place in the world's system. No thread connecting him to fate. To the heavens, he is an impossible existence. A flaw that should never have existed. A bug in Fate itself. Now, hunted by the very laws of the world while standing outside them, Alden must survive in a realm that refuses to acknowledge his existence—and perhaps become the one being capable of rewriting fate itself.
