Heart of Storm

An orphan islander, who nearly became a victim of mindless witch hunting, gets a rare opportunity to enroll in the Academy, the bastion of human knowledge. Krito will find himself unwittingly become a central piece in the obscure plots that waited for the necessary push in all those countless years. Will Krito and his new friends survive through the upcoming storm or succumb to it? And what’s the deal with the so-called summoners, dragons, demons, necromancy and various alien abominations? Only one way to find out. TL note: This is probably the first fantasy novel that I've read, and it is in Russian language lol. Probably more than ten years past the last time I opened this book. The naming is a bit weird in this novel, like a mix of medieval German, Nordic, Japanese, Tolkienesque, and vaguely Russian, but the story is very creative and the arc endings absolutely bust a fat nutt. If you want to read in the original language, you can search for "Сердце Бури" in conjunction with the author's name "Петр Николаевич Науменко". P.S. If you find some inconsistencies, or feel like the story is jumping in some places, please let me know where. Thank you!

4th volume prologue

Seleria sat across from Katrina. A coffee table stood between them, and the crimson princess placed a metallic spoon in front of her opponent.

"What are you plotting?" Katrina raised an eyebrow suspiciously.

"Oh, nothing extraordinary," Seleria whispered almost imperceptibly, "electrosweeper".

"WHAT?" Katrina gasped, and the spoon was drawn to her like a magnet.

Taking out a second spoon and placing it half a meter away, the crimson princess said, "Don't worry, don't worry, lightning-headed one."

She deliberately provoked her. Katrina's face twitched slightly, and the new spoon was drawn to her.

"Now it's clear. In your normal state, your field extends no more than a meter. But when you're angry, it constantly expands. Of course, it doesn't affect me, but other novices should stay away from you."

"Why doesn't it affect you?"

"A trade secret. Maybe I'll tell you someday," the crimson princess teased GM, adding, "Now I understand why you spent so long in the castle."

Katrina swallowed her resentment and didn't object, whether out of fear or embarrassment, no one knew.
