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

Dark Ritual

It had been more than three months since Bryan joined the Silver Owls, however, this was the first time that he had been called for an emergency.

He furrowed his eyebrows as he asked, "What is it?"

Elijah replied, "Some guy who had just lost his family tried to revive and summon them back using a dark ritual. And as expected, it backfired."

"Dark Ritual?" Bryan was alarmed, "How did he even have access to that in the first place?"

Rituals, where the sacrifice was made to the Evil Gods, were known as dark rituals. The outcome of such rituals was always disastrous, to say the least.

In the slight chance that the ritual did work out in favor of the caster, it was very likely that this was what the Evil God wanted in the first place and that the caster was still under the machinations of that deity.

Hence, in the Transcendent world, apart from the believers of the Evil Gods, no one would even dare to hold a dark ritual.
