The Deceitful One

With the advent of steam power, mankind has advanced and ushered in the industrial revolution. This is the age of steam locomotives, automatons, guns, and cannons, as well as curses, magic, artifacts, and the occult. Hidden in the shadows are a group of extraordinary people who wield enormous power and strange abilities that normal people cannot even begin to comprehend. They are known as Transcendents! Bryan, a wily thief with a penchant for mischief, lost his parents at a very young age and was forced to live on the streets. That is until his whole life turned around when he was shown the Path to becoming a Transcendent. The Theft Path specializes in deceit and illusions. It can steal everything under the heavens. Even the powers, thoughts, and lives of others. Follow Bryan on his journey through this dangerous and treacherous world as he steals from gods and robs the mortals. This is the story of The Deceitful One. *** My novel has a steampunk world setting, so expect a lot of steam-powered technology as well as retro-looking futuristic inventions. Furthermore, there will be churches, secret organizations, and cults. So if you're a fan of LotM—which I have taken inspiration from btw—you will definitely like my novel. Also, this is my first attempt at writing a novel so you might find some mistakes here and there. Just know that I'm constantly trying to improve. Cheers! *** https://discord.gg/ZwFUa2zM

Complete Massacre

The floors, walls, and even the ceiling of a large area inside the cavern had been decked in blood, flesh, and organs. Corpses were strewn around everywhere the eye could see. Some only had a few stabs to their bodies before they died; they were the lucky ones.

Most of the bodies here had their limbs missing, heads turned to mush, intestines wrapped around their necks, and even something as cruel as having their lungs, hearts, livers, etc. eaten. These were the people that had been brutally murdered by Bryan.

Currently, he was standing proudly displaying his dream creature physique in all its glory. However, the silver color of the skin had now been dyed scarlet by the blood of his enemies.

He was holding two of the Rank 2 Transcendents by the heads. While the last four Rank 2s were pierced by his tendrils and were lifted into the air. One tendril for two of them.
