Description
"Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." A shapeless, abstract entity of darkness in the guise of a human. A broken swordsman. A spoiled brat who can manipulate electricity. An unhinged fire-breathing boy. A magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Enchantmency. In a world where magic is just as life's necessity as air, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea sent forth its declaration of war, there was only one way to stop the raging bull: you grab it by its horns. Hence, Nyrhaean refugee Zakuro, with a group of graduating human youngsters, faces the dark forces head-on to stop the fated apocalyptic world war while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier, threatening him of the looming day he would fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world, the entity resorts to a selenophile girl who could only be his last hope to achieve freedom from the chains of fate. An antidote not without a soul-costing price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past? And what are they willing to risk to save a world that hangs in the state of trust, relationship, and sanity? *~* An action and fantasy-packed read with a blend of medieval and modern technology, cultures, and worldbuilding. *Any material from this book is prohibited from being used or republished in any form or other platform without the writer's permission.* #5 in electric #22 in high fantasy #12 in epic fantasy #18 in ya fantasy #25 in sword and sorcery
