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

Shocking Revelation

After interrogating most of the prisoners in order to confirm that each of them had the same story, they were soon escorted out of the Holy Blood Sect's base by the Strike Team. In the meantime, more Strike Teams had arrived as well.

Since this was the capital of the Belize Kingdom and the Church of Wisdom had a large presence here, they naturally had a much larger Silver Owls division.

Hence, at any given time of the day, there were at least half a dozen Strike Teams ready to be dispatched; each team consisting of at at least six members.

When the other Strike Teams arrived at the underground base, all of them were greatly taken aback looking at the scene of utter carnage, most of them even puked. Regardless, everyone helped the prisoners outside. They couldn't be set free just yet.
