About this listen
After the chaos of Tellus—the world of the spear users—Randidly Ghosthound returns to Earth needing time to recover and heal.
Randidly's Skills have grown at a rapid pace, keeping him far ahead of any individual on his home planet. Yet the System has continued its own methodical advance, meaning Randidly has no time to take the rest he needs.
Zone 32 now hosts two Champions; individuals provided by the System who can teach unique Skills to their followers. In the one corner, wreathed in a green light, comes the Wild Rider. Opposite her stands the stark and intimidating Skeleton Knight. The previously isolated populations come together, clustering around these two figures.
By the time word reaches Randidly that his friends Ace and Sydney yet live, a harsh truth is revealed: in the end, there can only be one Champion of Zone 32.
On the horizon, an even larger decision looms. In order to keep ahead of the curve and create a miracle, Randidly can only think of one possibility: to finally obtain a Class of his own. Not from a Village Spirit, but forged with his own hands.
This is book four of the hit LitRPG fantasy series with over 50 Million views on Royal Road.

great story line

There’s a noticeable dynamic when it comes to how male and female characters are written. Many of the male characters — especially early on — tend to fall into two categories: brash, aggressive, emotionally obtuse types who make reckless decisions, or the rare “model” male who is quiet, sensitive, and deferential. These idealized characters are often framed less as people and more as examples, subtly held up to the reader as the “right” way to be.
One particular moment that stood out: a hardened, elite squad leader — someone with years of battlefield command and proven effectiveness in dangerous operations — steps aside to stay home and care for the baby so his wife, who just gave birth, can lead a party into one of the most hellish dungeons in the setting. There’s no conflict, no tension, no conversation — just quiet agreement, as if the role reversal is not only natural, but expected.
None of this is about objecting to strong female leads — they’re welcome when well written. But when these dynamics happen consistently, without pushback or narrative consequence, they begin to feel more like ideological placements than organic developments.
It’s also hard not to notice that nearly all the female antagonists in the early books — characters initially portrayed as dangerous or unstable — are eventually revealed to be misunderstood rebels or secret heroes, fighting a corrupt system from the inside. They aren’t villains, really. They’re just powerful women who were right all along. It’s an interesting inversion, but when paired with how male characters are treated, it adds to the impression that the moral gravity of the story always pulls in one direction.
The series still has a lot going for it — and I’m continuing with it — but I hope future books lean more into character nuance and trust the reader to appreciate strength without needing to tip the scales so obviously.
Great world building and interesting plot.
