The Devil's Legacy

Life changed when the 10 towers appeared,


Humanity struggled to survive against the monsters coming out of the gates and to defend against the 8 other worlds of Yggdrasil.


The only way to fend against them was to become stronger by climbing the towers.





Magnus had nothing.


No friends, no family, no money.
He had to struggle and put in the effort just to survive.





This is the legend of how a young boy transforms into a cold-hearted, ruthless sovereign.

Author's notes:


I'm going, to be honest, I really don't enjoy reading slow-paced novels at all. I obviously understand their appeal, but they're just not my cup of tea.

What I love reading, is a fast-paced plot with interesting things happening in each chapter. And that's what I guarantee my novel will be, and It is made for a similar demographic, obviously, though, I hope all readers enjoy it!


However, even if it is fast-paced, I have no intention of making the story seem rushed.


Anyway, My plan for this novel is for it to encompass a bunch of different mythologies and genres, combining all those things into one final product.


One characteristic of this novel is that many things are described vividly, in my opinion. However, I did make sure to leave quite a bit up to your imagination for you to ponder upon.


So this isn't the type of novel to skim read, although if that is your style, you might still enjoy it too.

By the time I reach around 100 chapters, the story should be genuinely engaging and have a whole universe of its own. That much, I can promise.

Thanks a lot for being with me and Magnus on this journey.


Every addition to your library, comment, and vote really makes my day, so I appreciate the response.

Also, regarding genres, this novel is going to have a pretty much infinite world. The towers are not the end of it, nor are they what the novel will revolve around. They are just one of the universe's countless mysteries. Our MC's story goes way beyond just climbing the Towers.

This story is more about how a regular boy becomes literally unbeatable across all worlds, but at what price...

This novel won't be one of those with only good things happening to the MC and him having lucky breaks left and right, many great things happen to the MC, but so many things go wrong and hurt him that he wishes at many points that nothing had ever happened.

This novel isn't light-hearted, but neither is it a tragedy, although the story may be either one at select arcs and points. And the beginning won't have much sadness in it.

Oh, and one last thing, regarding the chapter word count, the minimum I've set is 1,800 but you can expect many chapters to go up to even over 3,500, which is almost double my minimum and almost 3 times more than an average web novel chapter.



Also, please read more than 20 chapters before you decide your opinion on this novel. The beginning might be slow but I guarantee it picks up fast!


Thank you for reading!


Btw there is quite a bit of romance in the story later on, but I'm not planning on making a harem, well for now anyway, that might change in the future and the tags will be adjusted accordingly. There might be more than one love interest, and there might be different partners at different times, along with heartbreak and stuff.
