Synopsis

All it takes is one bad day to turn a nice kid into a heartless Demon.

The emergence of Mana on Earth created a great hierarchy of power and every Mage desired the top. Nations attacked each other for supremacy, igniting a brutal World War.

Amidst this chaos, Jordan, a powerless orphan, desired strength to protect his family from the war. Getting an invite into one of the best Magical Military Academies in the world was a dream come true, but the slaughter of his family drowned him in grief. Overwhelmed by vengeance, Jordan swore to become the strongest Mage in existence.

“The world took everything away from me! Everything I ever loved! But I’m gonna make sure we're even, and I will kill anyone that gets in my way.”

At first, while the other Mages in his class were quickly enhancing their abilities, Jordan couldn't even wield Mana. All that changed after he acquired the Arcane God System. Bonded to the Origin of all Mana, Jordan's journey as a limitless Mage has begun.

Since being a villain is the only way to achieve his goals, Jordan will play the role to perfection.

    {Ask Questions Here} No way I'm not giving my blood, sweat and tears a 5 Star rating. If you're a fan of Dark Fantasy, let me start with a warning that you'll become addicted to this novel. Call it bragging or whatever, you were warned! Okay, so back to the review. Thanks for checking out my novel. I thought, instead of writing about a MC with magical powers who just want to fight monsters and level up kinda plot, why don't I try something unique for the ever-hungry fantasy readers. But of course, you'll notice some cliche and reader-loving elements as you read. Knowing a lot about humans and what we are capable of, I've often asked myself- why hasn't anyone written a World War plot? Like seriously. If I were to awaken superhuman strength, I'll want to rule the World and so will a lot of people on Earth which will result in a brutal war. Hence, the inspiration behind this novel. MC's backstory is as tragic as they happen which turns him into a psychotic heartless overpowered Demon with a high IQ. At first, his ultimate goal was to rule the world with an iron fist, but some character development happens along the way. There's going to be a small meaningful Harem along the way, but it won't distract MC from his goal. The world in the novel is similar to our own only with advanced technology and the use of Mana for almost everything. Sorry for being so brief, I'll do a more detailed review as the plot progresses. I really hope you enjoy my novel. It's my entry for WSA 24 so please support me with PowerStones, Golden Tickets, Reviews, Comments, Recommendations in your reading lists and of course, gifts. I need that golden trophy. Have a blast... Almost forgot. There's a discord server. JOIN IT!

    Can i begin by cheesing at the cover art? So well made. Props for that. The concept of 70's vibe with magic is so interesting. Love the world that you are building. The work you are putting into the foundation of this story is not going unnoticed. Keep it up champ! You have so much potential and I can't wait to see you succeed! Collection added and am keeping close tabs on you. Happy writing dear author!

    This story uses a lot of general tropes that are seen often in webnovels- rank-based magic, magic academies, tragedy as a character motivator, and a 'weak' main character who wants to strive for more. The opening was genuinely very gripping, although the hype that was built up fell off after that. However, after some general exposition, the author was able to build that hype back up very quickly. This novel seems to have a very quick 'payoff' to all of that hype- as in that a reader will only have to read a few chapters at a time to experience some decently-cool moments without having to trudge through a lot of sludge content. The main character is a very general type of character. He's weak, a bit self-pitying, marred by tragedy, an orphan, and is generally bullied a lot. However, for some, this won't be too off-putting. After all, the coolest characters who reach the top are ones who weren't expected to. The world design is also very general- a world that was suddenly privy to magical extravagance, and adapted systems around it to try and combat its misuse. However, that doesn't mean it's bad. It's written to form, despite not straying from that mold too much. If you enjoy that type of environment, it's not a bad read at all. I don't think I enjoyed it any less than I enjoyed Solo Leveling's worldbuilding- which is to say, I didn't really. But maybe someone does, and I think this is probably a pretty similar read in that way. Overall, it's not a bad read. Definitely worth a try if you don't have a lot of time to read to get to the cool parts. Author seems to update quite often and has a very consistent writing style.

    Just checked out this novel I love the backstory. I was surprised especially since it was my first time reading dark fantasy. The writing is good except for some punctuation, though it doesn't bother me it might to others. (just saying).
