Masquerade of Madness

"YOU ARE FUCKING CRAZY!" *BANG!* The bullet pierced through the man's skull, splattering blood all over Sebastian's face. He calmly wiped away the blood using a handkerchief before replying to the corpse. "Maybe... Maybe I am crazy." "But I don't know any other way to escape this hell" He laughed some, he cried some, then did a little of both together. If despair was a face, he was wearing it now. ----------------------- Do you ever feel that you are meant for something greater? Has the real world held you back, constraining your true talents?

Author's Note

Hello Readers! This is the page where I talk a little about what you guys can expect from this book and my expectations going into it. This is of course, subject to change as the story goes on. I will tell you guys if I update it.

For now, let's roll.

There is a prologue after this, you can skip it if you want as it just helps set up the atmosphere and doesn't really affect the story.

As the main character gets powerful and gains a whole set of abilities I will add a character sheet into the auxiliary volume for you guys to refer to. If necessary, I will do the same regarding the power system and other world setting stuff, if needed.

I also plan to add in a list of characters and their basic info if they ever stick around long enough (*ahem).

This story can basically be divided into two parts, for now...

At the start, it's a tragedy where the Main Character is still adapting to his new life and thus ... (*ahem) suffers a lot. Once his character arc is complete, he will start to get more OP and start his counterattack. So do try to stick around till I get there.

That's it for now, please do leave comments here and there so that I know what you guys think of the story developments and stuff.
