A bloodmage born in shadows, a shapeshifter no one can predict, a survivor in a world set against him. Thalion’s life as a marine biologist was modest in wealth but rich in joy and fulfillment. The arrival of the system sent everyone on Earth into a tutorial while merging it with four other planets. Not everything was bad, though. The system granted people magic and even ways to defy time itself. For now, everyone struggles to survive the tutorial, which has become more of a slaughter trial than a learning experience. A post-apocalyptic LitRPG series inspired by The Primal Hunter, Defiance of the Fall, and Elden Ring. Release Schedule: Five chapters a week. (Wordcount between 2,000 and 3,000) Also, this novel is posted on Royal Road and Patreon with Patreon being up to 60 chapters ahead of the Royal Road release. What to expect: -Multi-POV Storytelling but mostly main character -Adaptive Magic System – The magic evolves based on the wielder, making every spellcaster’s abilities truly unique. -No harem -Entities Beyond Humanity -Expansive Worldbuilding
