Hi everyone!

As of right now, I'm still working on the story "Hero Leveling". But I've met a problem with my first few chapters. Some of you might have noticed that I sometimes randomly change the 1st chapter in some way. That's because as I was writing later chapters, and thinking through the plot and some other important things, I've realized just how bad my first 3 chapters were (especially chapter 1).

The good news is that I've located the problem as to why that is. And that's because I simply didn't put enough effort into them (as an example, the dialogue is atrocious) as I did in the better parts like the last part of chapter 3. The reason for the lack of effort is the fact that I thought the story of "the rising of the shield hero" wouldn't be that significant to Sung Jin-Woo's own story, so I wanted to blow through it. But because of just how long what I was writing was, I concluded that I can't half-ass it to get to the end, and when I did that, I saw the real potential in it. And I realized just how oh so horribly wrong I was. 

As I was plotting out the story around the original shield hero timeline/story, I've come to see just how good it could be if I put effort into it. And because of that potential, it doesn't feel right to me for me to half-ass it. So that's what I'm gonna do.

So right now, I'm rewriting the story, but I'm gonna do it as a new story as to not lose the comments people have posted in the 1st version. Some parts from the old version will make it into the new one, but most of it will be rewritten. I'm almost finished with ch 1 but I'm gonna ask a friend to look at it first. 

Another reason for the long hiatus is me trying to figure out how time would work in a story that has normal parallel worlds and multiverses at the same time and to make it easier for time manipulation in some cases while also making it almost impossible in most, and to give it limits. Then there's trying to make the cursed series blood sacrifice type abilities overpowered but still with heavy consequences even to Jin-Woo. There's also more complicated story stuff I had to sort out along with some private stuff.

And to everyone asking if I'm still here, I am, always have been. But I'm also anxious to reply after not posting new chapters for so long.

That's all for now, and hopefully, ill have the first chapter of my rewritten story out soon. Hope yall will like it.

You've reached the end of published parts.
