The Shadow Thief
In the city of Gravif, Axel, a notorious thief, 'stumbles' upon a powerful artifact. Upon unlocking its abilities, the artifact corrupts his mana, causing it to plummet to -1. With this strange glitch, Axel becomes an unstoppable force. However, Axel, preferring to operate under the radar, opts to conceal his new abilities, not one for unwanted attention. Yet, luck proves to be against him as the city of Gravif and its lurking demons have alternative plans. --- I'll keep writing 'The Blood Magic User' and release one new chapter every day. This is another project I'm working on, experimenting with the system tag and adding my own spin. Thank you for reading!
VOID UPGRADE
As I opened my eyes, I found myself standing on a rooftop, the Upgraded Dagger clutched in my hand. The street below was a scene of utter devastation: bodies lay strewn about, cobblestones splattered with blood, and buildings reduced to rubble. Rats picked at the corpses, and looters rifled through the dead's belongings. Some shops were ablaze, sending plumes of smoke into the stormy, dark sky. A cold mist hung in the air, and the heavy rain added a miserable weight to the atmosphere. It was the kind of weather that usually made me want to stay indoors with a cup of cheap coffee, watching the world from behind a window.
I remembered falling asleep in the Rusty Chalice, and now... I was here. My neck gaiter was pulled up, and I was wearing my black and brown leather armor.
