  • Evil Occultist

    It's not easy being an evil CULT LEADER! Impulsive and charismatic beginner occultist Ted tries to murder someone with a forbidden spell and instead gets the attention of a hostile sun god. The only way Ted can shake off the influence of the divine being and avoid being absorbed is to perform a sacrifice - ten thousand souls, and they have to be willing. While Ted has no problems getting some poor sods to give up their souls for free, ten thousand is still quite a number and he decides to form his cult somewhere safer than his own homeland: the FIN, a great island in the cold, dark south where the sun god is weakened for half of the year. Ted needs to fight for dominance during his race to control the population of the Fin - first in order to get the technology needed to push through the unnatural storms that have plagued the ocean around the island, then in order to actually get the people to support his evil, insane, self-serving cause. He recruits people left and right, charming them with his silvery tongue and charisma, but there seems to be a conspiracy against him. Someone wants Ted dead, and it is not the hungry god of sun. Ted is not alone, though - his best friend, Eknie, is like a rabid yet loyal dog. She will stop at nothing to get Ted to share his life with her, but Eknie, the diplomatic bard lady from the Great Eastern Kingdom, is a benevolent stalker. Probably. Mostly. She arranges a meeting with someone who can invent a machine that will get the cult to the Fin in no time at all: the genius engineer and scientist, Madorn. He isn't cheap labor, of course... The sun god is nothing like Ted would have imagined. Always breathing down on his neck once the dreaded morning comes, its intrusive and sinister ways make him fear daylight. The god can make him its slave if it is not pleased with the regular sacrifices, and this ends up in Ted creating an army of ZOMBIES. The world of Ad Rath is in the middle of a technological revolution. Steam is utilized in all forms of transport - steam cars, steam trains, whatever one can imagine, it probably runs on steam. There is potential for more, though - the southern islands have been simmering inside a megastorm for years and supplies are running low in the barren land of the Fin. To travel all the way down to the cold and uncomfortable South from the safety of the Kingdom of Sennas with its luxury and degeneracy would be a punishment for most. IMPORTANT: The MC is intentionally selfish and evil, causing misfortune and hurt wherever he goes. The other characters are not much better. Don't like, don't read. Mostly, though, Ted is just saving his own skin and gathering wealth, and being evil just for the sake of doing bad things. Don't expect a virtuous hero here. ALSO IMPORTANT: This is a sequel-ish to Water Belongs to the Dead: Heart of the Witch, set 100 years after the end of WBttD:HotW. While it is not needed to read it to understand Evil Occultist, giving it a look can help you familiarize yourself with the world.

  • Four Split Personalities

    Battling an unusual form of personality dissociation, Motan admits to feeling the weight of immense pressure bearing down on him. Amidst this turmoil, he finds solace in a virtual escape called "The Realm of Innocence," a game that has become his sanctuary from stress. In the realm where ambiguity reigns, Motan's behavior is unpredictable and impetuous, making him the instigator and mastermind behind myriad events that spiral out of control. Yet, within the sphere of virtue, his resilience and courage shine through, earning him the admiration of many who see him as the epitome of a righteous knight and a fair judge. When dwelling in the balance of absolute neutrality, he adopts a demeanor of modesty and lethargy, mirroring the ordinary essence of every soul. Conversely, in the domain of chaotic evil, he transforms into a figure of madness and cruelty, embodying the very essence of a demon and deceiver, showing kindness only to himself. "Tan Mo is the most extraordinary Bard I have ever encountered, though he is... perplexing, to say the least," comments Countess Leisha, reflecting on his complex nature. "Mor is a man of distinguished integrity! Having met him just once, I am convinced that he is someone one can confidently turn their back to," declares Gwen, the leader of the Rose Rot, acknowledging his noble character. "If you're in search of the ideal neighbor, look no further than Hei Fan," recommends Alchemist Luna, suggesting his suitability for companionship. Yet, amidst these varied testimonies, a warning resonates, "Don't talk about that man!" indicating a mysterious, perhaps darker aspect of his persona that remains unexplored.

  • The Strongest Battle Pet Reincarnation of a Bard

    Krilo's first transmigration happens in the land of Terra. A world of monsters, strange machines, and magic where everyone is bestowed with a system from nature itself to make them stronger. He leads a peaceful life in a village of the west. Until one day, strange machines arrive and destroy everything in its path. His village is turned into war headquarters by the coalition in an effort to stand a chance against the behemoth. Until suddenly one of the major kingdoms in the coalition massacres all of the inhabitants including poor Krilo all of the sudden. Krilo then undergoes a second reincarnation that takes place in the same world as his first reincarnation. But the difference is, he is now a battlepet for a boy with a class of bard. A fighting partner for his human in the form of an animal-like creature. However, his second reincarnation results in him and his human being jailed for life for a strange reason. Doomed to death and can't seem to level up, Krilo must find a way to seek out revenge against his adversaries in his previous life. But the idea of companionship does not fit his lifestyle. Should he stick to his human companion or take extreme measures to sever the ties? Soon after his escape, Krilo comes into contact with the power of The Void. [You are destined to be the strongest] [To gain level exponentially, the host must do 3 things: a. Strike your opponent b. Absorb the natural essence of another battlepet c. Absorb the natural essence of a human] Absorbing natural essence is the equivalent of absorbing someone's life. So, Have Krilo decided what to do with his bard? Is Terra will be the same as it used to be? Meanwhile, his human companion also has a mysterious power granted to him by The Nature Creator, the one that opposes The Void. Which one will bring grace and which one will bring calamity? ================== the above synopsis mostly applies to 30+ chapter of the book. So readers should be patient reading the beginning part first. What to expect: 1. adventure 2. intense worldbuilding (western fantasy) 3. somewhat a system novel (only the stat, skill, etc) 4. weak MC 1 (krilo) in the beginning, later may be classified as overpowered. Antihero 5. smart MC 2 (Niva) 6. No harem (for now) 7. excellent but rather serious story *The novel cover does not belong to me. All credits goes to the artist.

    It is said that, many, many years ago there was once a bard, but he was no ordinary bard as from his mouth came the most amazing stories, from a war that was fought throughout the world, figures that prevailed even through the toughest times, and finally to criminal masterminds that were feared throughout, now I let us listen to these amazing stories.

  • Revenge of The Bard Hero

    Vercingetorix or, as his friends and family call him, Verce was an average 16 year old boy sitting in class, when his entire class was transported to another world as Heroes. Unluckily, Verce becomes the weakest and most useless Hero, the Bard Hero, and he is brutally 'expelled' from the group of Heroes. (Any music I use in this is not owned by me, and I will put the name of the song and for more immersion I would recommend you listen to the song while reading the part of the book that has the sing playing. You can also listen to your own music if you want, just don't be negative about the stuff I listen to you, if it isn't for you then fair enough, just listen to whatever you want.) (I also do not own the cover.)
