Epic Of The Demonic Sage

Lucius was a man born to a pair of lowly servants that worked for the Great Demon worshiping Barrom clan. Growing up in the harsh conditions of the Barrom clan where magic and power reigned supreme, he weathered through humiliation and schemes. Knowing that he wanted to be the oppressor than the oppressed, he began his conquest. Not averse to betraying or scheming, Lucius made use of his allies as mere pawns to be sacrificed. Learning that a powerful artifact lost eons ago was hidden in an ancient ruin, Lucius betrayed and sacrificed one of his closest people, his lover without hesitation. But he didn’t know that fate had a different plan for him and the artifact he had yearned for would send his soul hurtling across the cosmos, forcing it into the broken body of a young man called Asher Inanis. Coming to his senses he finds the world to be completely different where the magic of his previous world did not exist, but what did was ‘Gifts’. Witness how he learns about the world, gains power and reigns supreme against all odds becoming the Demonic Sage. P.S. This is a slow paced novel and has a lot of world development at start. If this is not to your taste, you may not like it. *** I do not own the cover, will remove it if asked. --- join the discord server : discord.gg/fkTbUfBRsH

City On High Alert

"Asher, are you alright?" Countess Lita grabbed her son's face and checked him.

"I'm alright, mother." Lucius reassured her.

"No, how could you be okay? Someone just attacked you in your room." Countess Lita was closed to tears as she hugged him. "I'm just glad that you're unharmed. But are you actually hurt anywhere?"

"Put out the fire now." Kiana instructed some of the servants and guards with them to take care of the fire burning within Asher's room at once.

"And what do we do this with this one, ma'am?" one of the guards glanced at the assassin on the floor.

"Leave that one be, I'll take care of it myself," Lucius said. "Or ensure that he remains unconscious, though I expect that he'll stay that way for quite some time."

If Lucius wanted to, he could have simply left the assassin's body in the fire and nobody in the Inanis household would have taken a second look and simply allowed it to burn.
