The Will to Live Is My Strongest Skill

The Will to Live Is My Strongest Skill
Iron Everfall awakens in an unfamiliar body—in a world where magic has replaced science and ancient technologies have become forgotten relics.
In his past life, he was a genius of engineering. Here, he’s just another survivor.
But Iron sees what others miss.
Where mages see miracles, he sees a system.
Where ruins are deemed cursed, he finds functioning machinery.
Every step in this world is a test: toxic zones, mutated creatures, and cities where power is held through fear and force. Alongside unexpected allies, he seeks more than survival—he seeks control.
Yet this world offers no mercy.
One miscalculation, and you are dead.
One weakness, and you are used.
To survive, Iron must unite the irreconcilable: the logic of science and the chaos of magic.
And perhaps… become something more than human.
(Some situations, dialogues, and elements of humor are taken from my life. Iron largely reflects my personality, and future characters such as Noah and Elyria are based on my friends.)
Enjoy reading!
Narrative Note:
The story is primarily told from Iron’s first-person perspective. However, many chapters—especially in the future—will shift to third-person narration to better explore the wider world, major events, and deeper lore.
