Lord of Charm

Hey everyone! I'd like to say this is not a wish-fulfilling novel where everything works out and women join the harem happily one after another. First, there's no harem. Second, there are sad and dark moments where nice characters are killed. The world is cruel. Please don't come expecting rainbows and unicorns! -------- The God of Charm was scorned when he got to the top. On his way to the top, he has lied, betrayed, and abandoned everyone who stopped being useful to him. Eventually, he gets tired of being isolated by the other gods and decides to prove a point – anyone with the ability would choose power over moral code and values. He picks a young, sick, and good-natured boy and gives him the blessing of the God of Charm. Gale Stormborn was talentless in magic until the day the God of Charm summoned him and granted him the power to charm others and plunder their magic abilities through intercourse. With the power of charm, he can finally start his journey in the magic world and get stronger, and freely live a longer life. However, his powers were meant to manipulate and take from others; can he keep his morals while using them, or will he get corrupted in his chase after power? Gale had been weak, and reliant on his decisive and ruthless family his whole life. Despite his new powers, he is still insecure. As he grows stronger and pursues greater strength, he slowly changes without noticing it. ------------------------ Novel is on hiatus until October or September when I finish my studies.

Chapter 49 – Undercurrent Danger

Somewhere in Antwerp:

"Give me your report."

Tara Clarence commanded the man bowing in front of her.

"Yes, Lady Tara. The assassination attempt on Lord Lionel has failed."

"Why aren't the mages who were given the task here to report?"

"That brings me to the next part of the report. Four of them haven't returned and it's safe to assume they are dead."

"And the fifth?"

"It's Miss Sol, however, she joined Lionel's convoy with another mage who protected him, and now she sleeps in the same mansion as that mage."

"Are you saying she betrayed us?"

"I suspect it's worse, she might have… played us right from the beginning. The mansion they're staying at belongs to Lord Lionel as well."

Although he said 'us', Tara was irritated to no end by the way he implied she was led by the nose into a trap, making her lose a mage subordinate. It might also cost her the support of Jack's father, a local viscount.

"Who is the male mage?"
