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

Master Ron

Bryan stood in front of an abandoned building and scouted the surroundings first. He found that not a lot of people were around.

He took out his pocket watch to check the time, "Hmm, ten minutes to 2."

"Time to raise some hell." He grinned as he headed inside the entrance of the building. He brought his fedora hat and brought it in front of his face.

His face twisted and contorted for a few moments, and then changed to a brand new face. This was the face that he had never worn before. This was also the face that he loathed with all his being.

The face was that of a young man in his twenties. He had brown hair and a neatly trimmed mustache of the same color. And his eyes… They were the darkest shade of red! Of course, they weren't visible beneath his sunglasses.

This face belonged to none other than Ron!

Bryan wasn't planning to hide his face at all for this secret gathering. Well, technically he had already concealed his face beneath that of Ron's.
