In a hostile land of magic and iron overseen by whimsical gods. An engineer wakes as a Gnoll with naught but his ingenuity.

Follow his adventures as he tries to make the best of his situation, while stuck between forces that push and pull him around. Will his adaptability save him from yet another certain death? No.

But maybe, just maybe, he'll find his way back home.

 

****

This is an Isekai (another world) resurrection LitRPG (video game system.)

No harem, wish fulfilment, mary sue, or white knights within. A more 'realistic' fiction - there are setbacks and gains, wins and losses. Mistakes are made.

Hacking the Game Didn't Go as Intended by VaughnSchneider
133 parts Ongoing
What would you do if you found yourself trapped in a video game as an NPC with seemingly no hope of returning to the real world? Having grown up without parents, Daisuke finds himself in a perpetual cycle of poverty as he tries to survive in the bottom rung of society. When the world's first VRMMORPG, Sehreneti Online, is released to the public, he decides to take a gamble by borrowing a buttload of money from some shady people to propel his hack-selling side hustle into the big leagues. After nearly getting his leg twisted into a pretzel for failing to pay off his loan on time, Daisuke decides to put his plan, Operation Jupiter, into action. Although a cool-sounding name, he didn't seem to be in Lady Luck's good graces that day. After uploading the code into his capsule and commencing the startup, everything goes haywire, booting his consciousness into the virtual world. When Daisuke comes to, he finds himself as a newborn fresh out the meat oven-and, of course, his circumstances are far from ideal. Apparently, he is still poor, but instead of being an orphan, he is now the son of a prostitute in the slums, with seemingly no connection to the game system or the real world. How will Daisuke overcome this trial, and will he be able to return to the real world? If you enjoy GameLit and LitRPG light novels such as Sword Art Online, Solo Leveling, The Rising of the Shield Hero, and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, then you'll definitely enjoy this epic tale!
