    Name: Other world Warrior
    Also
    The Dimensional Mercenary; Two-Dimensional Mercenary. (Personally, I like Two-Dimensional Mercenary the best as a title.)

    NU Link: None.

    Why It Should Get Picked Up: Its a great and unique web combic with a even better web novel from what I've heard in some comments.

    Basically the mc needs money to help his family and regain some respect from his family. Mc finds a job where he gets to help relieve the regrets of people from fantasy worlds of their regrets/bad end, who were even willing to sell their souls. Mc takes their place to do things better using his knowledge and skills in epic adventures.

    Reality won't change but they'll be able to see the what ifs. If I did this, if I had talked to him, or could I have saved her. Stuff like that and its all amazing as the clients, those who sold their souls finally come to peace with themselves, or close to it.

    Along with money each mission he receives also helps the mc grow up and resolve to be better/not make the same mistakes as the clients. And when the mc does well enough he can take some of their skills and powers with him in the real world, and I suppose other worlds on his missions. It hasn't really been touched upon much yet in the comic. He does seem to just grow naturally more skilled as he swaps into his clients bodies who are all skilled and strong, suggesting just doing missions helps him pick up combat skills on top of his newfound real combat experience. Though it's not all good. Some if not all of the clients mental trauma and the less than moral actions he takes come back home with him, in addition to potentially losing his sense of self when swapping into his clients who've experienced so much more than himself.

    The web comic is good but from comments in the chapters say the novel is better and has less plot holes. For example at some point a penalty of his job is he'll suffer the pain and suffering from his missions in the real world. Well one mission mc really messed himself up and was in the hospital supposedly almost crippled, but in the web comic its skipped.

    Sorry but I can't do the story justice in just how amazing it is and why it should immediately be picked up by someone. All I can is it'll most likely be the next top KR novel if translated with consistent releases. Would prefer WuxiaWorld picked it up as I believe it's not Munpia/Webnovel and could guarantee the release speed. And with a comic out there you'll almost immediately have a strong fan base.

    I don't believe so. A good way to check is to search here on NU and Google the name/alternative names of a book. For this if all you find is the manga then it probably means no one has translated this.

    I read the webcomic/webtoon/manhwa and it got disappointing after a while but it has a good heart.
    Best of luck to the readers. I recommend trying Centinni or Woopread.
    Those too groups pick up a lot of novels. I am looking to cut down on my Korean novels

    Shame. I'm all for KR novels. Just not necromancer mc ones. Now a days it's just an excuse for a mc to not have comrades/many comrades and be a lone wolf. It's so over played I avoid them. Would like to see maybe a companion have it instead.

    +1, ended up making this account with the sole purpose of bringing attention to this blessed work.
    I mean, if novels are always better than manga then this work may really be top tier.

    I really hope Dimensional Mercenary's novel gets translated someday.
