The hardest thing about being a mage of ruin and tempests… is having to hold back. Veronica's magic isn't subtle. It's cataclysmic. Specializing in widespread destruction magic, she could tear apart mountains, raze armies, and bury cities. She was the first and only mage to reach the 10th tier. Because of that, she was also humanity’s last hope against the demons. For years she fought their endless armies. All until the day she fell. Alone. Just as the world burned around her. But death was not the end. In her final moments, she was able to cast her soul back in time. Now nineteen again, she has years to prepare before the invasion begins anew. She must find allies, raise students, and rally forces to stand beside her. And this time, she's not alone. Equipped with her own personal system, she has all the resources she needs to reclaim her title. Because this time, she no longer bears the curse that bound her body in her previous life. She reached the 10th tier once while shackled. Now freed of her chains… who knows how far she can truly ascend? What to Expect: • Regression + Progression Plot • Overpowered MC • No secrecy (No hiding her powers or working in the shadows, once she regains some power). • No mercy for enemies • Personal system + Use of future knowledge • Specializes in mass destruction magic • No harem • Possible female romance Cover was commissioned. Daily chapters M-F until January 9th and then I will swap to my regular release schedule, MWF. 2,000 Word count average per chapter. Roughly 70% of Book 1 has been written.
