kindred bookstore

A doctor has died, and returned to life as a bookstore owner, finding himself catering to the dead. The world of ghosts and ghostly encounters opens up before him, and as old tales mingle with new, and the worries of the dead carry over to the living, he finds himself caught as an Envoy between the two worlds, and life and death are no longer idle terms to him... A bookstore that opens late at night... Welcome.

Nille is the great-grandson of Amparo Pilar Fajardo and Takeshi Tsukuyomi, born from a rare union of Filipino and Japanese lineage that carries remnants of ancient, supernatural inheritance. Within his blood lies the echo of ancestral spirits and the dormant legacy tied to Tsukuyomi, the moon god, a force that has long since faded from the world yet continues to persist within his existence. He is not an ordinary human, but a convergence of forgotten powers shaped by two distant mythological roots. These inheritances do not manifest freely, they awaken gradually through conflict, pressure, and survival, drawing attention from forces that recognize what he may become. In a world where myth and reality still bleed into one another, Nille stands at the threshold of something far greater than himself. His journey is not only survival, but the slow awakening of a lineage that refuses to disappear.

As the sole living relative, he gets to inherit his old pop’s bookstore. A place where he had spent most of his childhood. There, however, he finds an ancient book that ends up shaking his view on the world and raising the curtain over a side he never knew existed, one filled with magic, mythical creatures, and all sorts of dangers. “Wait a minute! Are you telling me, grandpa was a wizard?!” Follow Lucien as he slowly unveils the mysteries of this hidden world, meets new people, saves princesses, befriends dragons, and uncovers the ancient secrets of his bloodline. This is the story of the Bookstore Mage. ******* This story is set in a modern-day setting. It’s not earth but a parallel world similar to ours with different countries and all of that. There will be some world-hoping elements down the line. There will be some elements of army building. There will be pets. There will not be any harem, I’m not confident enough to write a realistic one without compromising the relationships. There will be a realistic development of both the MC’s powers and his relationships. This will seem like a slow start, but it will hopefully pick up the pace whilst still being enjoyable. I’m not writing the chapters now, this is an old draft I had for a long time. So the updates will be consistent. And lastly: The cover Is not mine, if the owner would like me to remove it please let me know.

SOULMATE 01 : KINDRED SPIRIT When highschool life officially ended and summer was about to come, Kharol didn't expect that it would also be the time that she died in the middle of a crosswalk on the way home. Since that day, she was bound to the place and she became the "Guide" of those lost souls to their next life for almost fifteen years while waiting for her turn. Upon doing her job as a Guide, she mistakenly saved a living human and as punishment, he's the only living human who was able to see and touch her like a normal one. With the love-hate bonds and conversations while witnessing the world to destruction, they grow closer and closer as they only think about their heart being connected... but not their souls.

In the year 1995, a crystalline meteor hurtled towards Earth and crashed in the forests of Aomori, spreading clouds of mysterious dust upon its impact. These dust clouds contain a mysterious substance that turns children and teenagers alike into Espers, human beings gifted with supernatural powers known as Sigils. Some have telekinetic powers, others can control elemental properties and some of them have mind-control powers. As time passes, Espers faces prejudice from normal people due to their powers, fearing that they might replace them. Some of them even think that Espers must be eradicated. There are even people who want to capture Espers and exploit their Sigils. On that day, an organization dedicated to researching and defending these supernatural youngsters known as Lazuline was formed. They even built a paradise for them known as Azure City, an artificial island located on the temperate waters of Sagami Bay, Japan. However, Azure City was just a temporary solution to the Espers. Eldritch beings known as Deviants invaded the city and the shadow of a mysterious consortium loomed upon its supernatural inhabitants, and they must fight back for their rights to live. These are the stories of their struggles and their daily life amidst the threat posed by the evil forces.
