Dive into the box set of the Hidden Pacifist series with over 1000 pages of a unique LitRPG coming of age adventure.
Jack wanted an easy win. The game wanted a whole new Jack.
After a brutal breakup and an ultimatum from his dad to start paying rent, Jack knows something has to change. He’s stuck in a dead-end job, he’s out of excuses, and the future looks like one long, miserable grind. Then he hears about New Earth—a next-gen VRMMORPG where players can earn real money just by playing. Even better? Crafting professions are booming.
Jack dives in, hoping to build his fortune, win back his ex, and finally prove he’s worth something. He doesn’t want to fight monsters or join a guild—just make some coin and get out. But life in this world isn’t as easy as he thought. The deeper he goes, the more it demands of him. Tools break. Materials are scarce. Customers are picky. And there’s no escape from the grind.
If Jack wants to succeed, he’ll have to do more than play the game. He’ll have to grow up.
