Barbarian's Adventure in a Fantasy World-Prologue

Lee Jin-Seong loved the world of fantasy.

It was more than mere fondness; it bordered on deep admiration. His interest was so profound that he spent every bit of his paycheck collecting not only fantasy novels but also manuscripts on history and mythology. Fantasy wasn’t just a hobby; it was a passion.

That was why he always yearned for something beyond the ordinary.

He wanted to go to a world of fantasy—a world of magic and wonder.

Jin-Seong didn’t leave his dream confined to his imagination. He quit his job and set off on a journey of realization, seeking out mysterious landscapes and places untouched by others. Over the years, he ventured to remote parts of the world, uncovering secrets hidden from civilization.

He conquered the highest mountain, ventured to the southernmost point on Earth, and even explored the center of the planet.
