Hope Ruthford is Cardinal Mage 9XA, a sorceress scientifically engineered as a vessel of pure destruction, to win wars for the Kingdom of Calidea. But when peace comes, weapons are needed no more. Hope is dispatched to the prestigious Academy of Belmesion to learn more about life as just a “normal” mage. But peacetime is in many ways more complicated than war. Tangled in a web of political scheming and conflicting interests, Hope must find allies she can trust and greater heights as a mage, to carve her own place in the world. The Ultimate Weapon at Royal Academy is not a story about how violence solves everything. Neither is it crying about how life is tough. This is a story about perseverance, moving on. Taking what you get and making the most of it. Turning disadvantages into advantages through creativity and cooperation. It's a journey into the wonders of cosmos and the human mind. An academy story where the characters actually go to classes and learn, and how even the great are made greater when they have each other. All the characters featured in this story are aged 18 or older. No sex. No focus on romance. Updates: MON - WED - FRI Up to 15 advance chapters available at Patreon
