So I'm looking for a novel, with a mc and a small group of companions that are together basically the entire time. For example, I'm not really looking for something like Douluo Dalu, because characters come in and out of the story and MC spends a fair bit of the time on his own. Rather than characters with strong "bromance" I'm looking for persistant characters that are always there and being relevant. Any sort of fantasy/litrpg/xianxia etc would be great. Harem/romance doesn't matter either way. No BL please. TY!
