Rise of the Blood Sovereign

Hi guys, this is my second novel here, and for you that have been reading my previous novel 'Is this really A Game?!' this one will be quite different. First of all, the system elements are light compared to my previous novel as the world I am writing about is one that had magic and monsters before the system arrived and is available to all. You should expect a dark story with a protagonist that acts like a villain at times and is quite calculative in his endeavors. Anyway, hope you enjoy it, and here is the synopsis. Lyle was an orphan, he knew not of who his parents were and only had memories of his mother from a long time ago. After being discovered by a mysterious man, Lyle joined the assassin organization and rose through the ranks thanks to his hard efforts, talent, and mysterious origin. The world suddenly changed during one of his missions, what was supposed to be a slightly more difficult mission became a hard one, and then the change occurred. Mana ran rampant and the many monsters of the world became stronger, more of them appeared and suddenly the inhabitants of the world that had suppressed monsters for so long were forced to fight the more powerful monsters once again. For Lyle, it was a chance, however. The system came into his world and he received an opportunity to become more powerful. Ding!

The cover was made by myself

The Cracks: Exploiting Empire's Fissures

Days turned into weeks, and Zione transformed into a fortress. The city walls were reinforced, and watchtowers were constructed to keep a vigilant eye on the horizon. Training grounds echoed with the sounds of clashing weapons and shouted commands. The rebel leaders worked tirelessly, strategizing and preparing for the inevitable counterattack from the Empire.

Lyle spent some of his time studying the magic map he had obtained as a reward. The intricate details it provided, especially when infused with mana, allowed him to grasp the lay of the land around Zione. It became an invaluable tool for planning and anticipating the movements of potential threats.

The map allowed them to prepare some outposts and ready traps nearby, even though defending Zione would be the last thing they would do as that would mean the other cities were taken, it was still a smart choice to prepare for such a possibility.
