Micheal is a young guy in his late teens who just graduated from high school and now he honestly does not know what to do with himself. Sitting in his chair just relaxing and browsing the shit-show that was the internet, doing random stuff, he suddenly becomes oddly weary. The next moment he's fuck-knows-where and everything seems rather.... odd?... more>>

He was rather confident in himself, that he usually didn't have a 360-degree field of vision, and that everything wasn't always so... gigantic. Something was really off... As if to confirm his thoughts, the very next second a series of prompts invaded his sight followed by a rather soothing voice.

[Soul restoration - Completed!]

[Welcome to Eve]

[Status...... Species: Glade Mosquito.....]

Slowly taking in everything laid out before him, Micheal responded with the most intelligent and sagely response possible.

"Huh......."

As such Micheal's unending search for power, adventure, and family begins.

WARNING:
This story features a protagonist with unconventional views and morals. In a world where only strength rules, concepts of good and evil become blurred as they fade to inutility. If you are looking for a goody-two-shoes, upholder of justice, and who goes around unconditionally saving any and all people in distress, this story is most likely not your cup of tea.

It can also get pretty dark and sensual at times, you have been warned.

Release schedule, Monday-Wednesday-Friday

Civil War has raged on the Al-Shan Archipelago for the past four decades, only recently coming to an end with the enthronement of the new Emperor.

This is not his story.

The Blood Demon, renowned general of said civil war, is tired of all the fighting and politicking that has described the last four decades of her existence. All she really wanted to do now is to go out into the world and see the many lands from her father's stories.

Thus she retired. And went and did exactly what she wanted.

This is the story of what happens when you toss a (retired) war machine with somewhat lacking common sense into an unsuspecting world at peace.

Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday.

First time posting a story on Royal Road here, hoping you folks will enjoy.

Expect:

-slow going slice of life with occassional faster paced action

-world building

-detailed anecdotes on the world, its races, the magic system, and whatnot every now and then

Do not expect:

-romance, other than maybe some passing mentions

-politics, again, barring passing mentions

Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated.

And thank you for reading.

Living within our world are ‘Origins’, humans with special powers. ... more>>

Throughout the years, their existence had been kept a veiled secret by the ‘Cordiale’, the first and most powerful organisation of Origins to be formed. Using the Origins’ special abilities, the ‘Cordiale’ double-deals in secrets, conspiracies, manipulation, you name it, toppling governments and reshaping the world as they see fit.

But beyond the facade of secrecy lies deeper machinations. A prophecy foretelling the apocalypse had begun to come to fruition, and the Cordiale was at the forefront of stopping it.

‘Iv’ is in a tricky spot. As one of the Cordiale's seven leaders, she now faces the task of preparing for otherworldly armageddon threatening both her people and the rest of humanity, all the while having to deal with rogue Origins and anti-Cordiale groups that threaten the organisation's established world order.

What to Expect:

A bit amateurish writing. The chapter count is within the 1k-2k range within the first 17 chapters, but picks up to 2k-3k afterwards. I try to improve my writing as I go along, and have a habit of editing narrations in past chapters.

A lot of the whole ‘secret-organisation’ genre in a contemporary setting, with power plays and politics sprinkled within the story between ‘Iv’ and their six other colleagues.

A pretty overpowered main character ‘Iv’, who usually sticks to doing paperwork but still fights from time to time.

Besides that, occasional slice-of-life scenes and character development.

Gore, swearing and action scenes (Action gets better over time I promise).

Various POVs from different casts, with ‘Iv’ and her allies as the main focus. <<less
