Heights of Magic

Darius lives in a village quiet and mundane life until he loses everything. His departure from the mountain village will lead to many trials, and he will not always pass them. The world is ruled by violent nature, political power, and magic. Different empires, kingdoms, and other varied governed lands are ruled by the gridlock of magical might with international and domestic power struggles. The world is rudely divided between those with power and those who only lack it. What will Darius learn in the world, and how will he survive in this cutthroat magus world? What must he develop, build, lose, sacrifice, and rebuild to achieve heights of magic? Story is published in Webnovel and Royal Road. ---------------------------------------------- Tags (the real ones): #Particle based magic, #Weaktostronger, #Overpoweredtosomeextend, #Alchemy, #Dark, #Businessbuilding, #Citybuilding, #Kingdombuilding, #Growstogenius, #Academy, #Magictheorypeerreview, #Mages, #Slaves, #Magictheory, #Magicsupremacy, #Strongruleweak, #Diplogames, #Plots, #Economy, #Magicpatents, #Privatewars, #Torture, #Noharem, #CleverdarkMC, #NonNPCMC, #Complexpersonalities, #War, #Hierarchysocialporn, #Goalsandchoices Chapter length: 1300-1500 words (sometimes more) ---------------------------------------------- Warning: The worldview and growth of the characters will change, at least to some degree, in the story. The story includes darker cultures, slavery, violence, torture, and ruthless characters, so if you want a nice peaceful isekai story of the bread market, you won’t find it here. There will also be varied sexual content in the future, but it is still a drop in the bucket compared to the overall plot amount. The story doesn’t abide by the principles of safe space. It’s the opposite of it. MC will, in most cases, only think of his gain. Also, MC will grow, learn, and his thinking will develop long-term. Also, the rise of mental capacities is accounted for. ---------------------------------------------- Dedication: I owe a debt of gratitude towards many good stories that I have had the luxury of reading. There are thousands of them, but readers can recognize some themes and influences. This novel has been made in an eclectic style, and I hope some readers will find it sometimes dark and sometimes sweet and wonderful. Honorary mention I must give to Patrick Rothfuss for Name of the wind as an excellent writing style. My deepest joy has also been the novels Warlock of the Magus World, Throne of Magical Arcana, Supreme Magus, Sylver Seeker, I’m the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!, to name a few. My story owes some aspects to these and many other stories, but it is not mere copy-paste. A good example is the expanded magic theory background, details of each theme, and a very peculiar plot, enjoy. ---------------------------------------------- Join webnovel so you remember what you were reading. https://acts.webnovel.com/2019/63659293/index.html?inviteCode=za50Tyfr Get addicted, read 4000 stories, go insane, start writing story here, oh wait..
