Synopsis

WARNING: COLD MAIN CHARACTER

Amadeus Devereux was born into a rich and powerful household. But he did not pursue power like his brothers because of his love for art, flowers, and poetry.

Until one day, a servant arrived in the garden to see Amadeus smiling as if he was looking at a flower. Only this time, Amadeus was looking at the mangled corpses of two gardeners.

—————————

Set in a fantasy world where creatures and powers of all kinds abound, follow Amadeus as he sets out into the world on a journey of self-discovery.

This is a novel that I wrote because I got tired of all the tropes that had transmigration, regression, deus-ex machina, etc. where everything that makes the main character reach the top is left to luck.

—————————


I will try to keep a release schedule of one chapter per day. But it may vary to one per two days at times.

Fifty Power Stones- One extra chapter.

Hello, ladies and gents! I am no veritable Casanova nor someone like Shakespeare, but I present to you a novel nonetheless. The story is set in a magical fantasy world, with some technological advancements already made through magic. The protagonist, Amadeus Devereux, is a sociopath who only cared about art, flowers, and poetry but an event further developed that into a curiosity to find out the connections between emotions and art. That is, he will hunt people with different personalities in order to experiment. Amadeus will meet different kinds of people throughout his journey, learning from them, killing them, or even letting them live, the possibilities are endless. This story, along with the protagonist, starts as a blank sheet that will be worth following. Romance? Love? Hate? Everything will depend on what Amadeus learns as he experiences the world through the emotions of other people along with the readers!

An amazing novel, a must read for anybody out there. First is writing quality, which is excellent, much better than most novels on the platform. The style just draws you in, sucking you deeper and deeper into the already amazing story. The flow is just right, there are no spelling or grammar errors that I could find, and again, that style, it's just perfect for story telling. I'm just simply amazed. Second is stability of updates, which is pretty normal for Webnovel, so just 5 stars, nothing to say here. After is story development, which, as I've already mentioned above, is just amazing. The pace is neither too fast or too slow, one of those rare novels that have found the sweet spot in the middle. A page turner that kept me reading past 2 in the morning, really, just really great. Then, there's the character design, that just left me speechless. The MC's personality is just so good! Like, even though the personality is that of a psychopath, somehow, it's still unreasonably believable, and his interactions with the other characters are just amazing. Speaking of them, the supporting characters are all also extremely believable, and they each have their own unique personality that stays consistent through all the chapters. Extremely well built characters, good job author! Finally is the world background, which is mind blowing. Although the world seems like a generic fantasy world, as you read further, you realize that not everything is as simple as it seems, and this is just wonderful. I love the uniqueness that the author came up with, and I just love the intricate world. Definitely one of the best thought out worlds that I have ever read about. Overall, an amazing novel. I would definitely recommend this novel if I was talking to a friend and we were talking about our (SSS) tier novels. An marvelous job author!

*I am reposting the review* This just starts off jaw-dropping. I was completely sucked into the story!! No grammatical mistakes and the flow of the story is so natural. And use of words is another thing the author is very good at. This book is very much a fantasy with a dark theme so if you are interested in fantasy, psychology, thriller and horror, maybe this is the book you are looking for.

Simply amazing, If I were to describe it in one word, it would be phenomenal. I genuinely hope gems like this with such an amazing writing rise to the top. for readers who are looking through the comments, just one advice, read it!. The writing itself will get you hooked in the very first chapter itself. And even till the six chapters I've read, author has amazingly showed off he could write a story with an interesting enough plot. I look forward to this book in the top ranks.

The start was really tempting to read. I haven't read a psychotic mc for a long time. Well this isn't for general audience though. If you like a dark novel read i recommend reading this. Good job author...keep up the good work! This nii-sama will support this novel.
