Authors Note: I have always been fascinated by writing fantasy relating to historical facts. In this story, you will find characters inspired by real-world myth and legend. The universe I created hopefully will make the reader's imagination excited and logically plausible. I hope you enjoy it. ### Here are some key aspects you'll encounter: MC: The protagonist follows the classic weak-to-strong arc. World: Picture a blend of Harry Potter and Star Wars. System: While it's primarily a magic-based story, there's a structured system in place that's easy to follow. Additionally, elements of cultivation. Harem: No, there are several female interests. But I enjoy romance first. So even if there will be more than one love interest it will be deep. Note: English is not my first language, but you'll notice that my writing and English skills gradually improve throughout the chapters. Other: The novel delves into deep research on science and history, enriching the storyline with factual and intriguing details. Give it a read—you might be pleasantly surprised by what unfolds.

Nice story, really enjoying the story, but locked chapters so soon is definitely a spoiler. Do let us enjoy the story a little longer before locking chapters. Locking chapters early has actually given room to so many unfinished novels in the library.

I hope this novels gets updated. The story is interesting and it will be great if we could learn more about the female lead's backstory. I think one of the greatest mystery of the novel so far is finding out who the male lead is.
