Why Is The Shadow Clone Jutsu Forbidden

"Shadows of Nocterra: The Forbidden Codex"

In the perpetually twilight realm of Nocterra, magic is both a blessing and a curse. Power is everything, and those without it are mere fodder for the ruthless mage-lords who control society. Ethan Nightshade, an orphaned street urchin with barely a spark of magical potential, has survived on nothing but wit and desperation. When a mysterious opportunity arises for commoners to enter the legendary Magical Academy, Ethan sees his one chance to escape the brutal streets of Shadowhaven. But everything changes when he discovers an ancient, forbidden tome - the Codex of Forbidden Shadows - a magical book that contains knowledge beyond imagination. As Ethan begins to unlock the book's secrets, he realizes he's stumbled upon a power that could either save him or destroy everything around him. The Codex grants him access to shadow magic - a forbidden art that allows him to manipulate reality itself, but comes with a terrifying price. Thrust into a world of political intrigue, deadly magical competitions, and centuries-old conspiracies, Ethan must navigate treacherous waters. The Academy is a battlefield where students are as likely to kill each other as learn magic, and Ethan's newfound abilities make him both a target and a potential game-changer. With powerful enemies hunting him, a mysterious mentor with hidden motives, and a magical book that seems to have its own agenda, Ethan must decide how far he's willing to go to survive. Will he become the weapon the Codex wants him to be, or can he maintain his humanity in a world that rewards only the most ruthless?

Shadowed Ascendance: The Forbidden System

Shadowed Ascendance: The Forbidden System (SA:TFS) follows the journey of Reziel Blackwood, a lowborn orphan whose life takes a drastic turn when he accidentally becomes bound to a mysterious and malevolent system known only as “The Forbidden System.” Initially weak and overlooked by a world that values noble titles and magical bloodlines, Reziel soon discovers that the system’s power grows by feeding on darker energies—ambition, desire, and even conflict. Though each forbidden ability grants him new strengths, it also tests his moral limits, blurring the line between hero and villain. Surviving in an empire teeming with magical academies, dangerous beasts, and hidden conspiracies, Reziel is thrust into a life of constant trials. He crosses paths with women of various backgrounds and agendas—a fierce knight seeking redemption, a cunning sorceress in pursuit of forbidden knowledge, a sheltered noble lady entranced by his dangerous aura, and more—forming unexpected alliances and romantic entanglements. Torn between forging genuine bonds and using others as stepping stones to greater power, Reziel’s journey is marked by both epic battles and quieter, slice-of-life moments where he struggles to find normalcy in a world he’s slowly reshaping. As his influence grows, whispers of an antihero on the rise spread across kingdoms, challenging the existing power structures. With the threat of ancient evils looming and rival factions vying to control or destroy him, Reziel must confront the question: Will he succumb to darkness to protect those he cares about, or find a more complicated path that balances ambition and compassion? Shadowed Ascendance: The Forbidden System combines action, adventure, romance, magic, and the grit of an antihero’s path—perfect for readers who love a “weak to strong” progression laced with moral complexity and harem intrigue.

The Dragon's Shadow

In the church's prison, a man looked at his shackles. 'Little girl... is this the ending you wanted to see?' Thinking back to that resolute and pretty face in his memory and that golden hair like the blooming sunset, Lister sighed. 'If I had known that my end will be like this, I might as well have abandoned that little useless princess, opened a small tavern, and found a woman to spend my life with.' "Man, how unlucky am I..." Lister remembered that while he was playing with these little fluffy monster girls, he used to often tease a certain witch that she would accidentally end up on the stake, making her puzzled, but he didn't expect that he would be the one to go up first. "If all this could start over... I should have chosen the monster girls after all." "Oh? Really?" A cold yet teasing voice sounded beside him. As he turned his head to look, powerful magic energy gathered and swirled, and finally, a tall female figure walked out of it. She wore a tight black dress that showed off her curvy, mature figure. Lister knew her... or rather, should have known her. 'The Sinful Dragon Demon Lord, Priscilla' "Did you really mean it when you said you'd choose monster girls?" "...I wonder if the mighty Demon Lord has decided to grace me with a heart-to-heart in this cozy little prison." "As expected of the mastermind who single-handedly helped that incompetent woman to the throne. Even now you have the energy to crack jokes?" "You flatter me. I think it's quite humanistic for a Demon Lord who has children for breakfast, lunch, and dinner to chat with a dying man in prison." "Tsk, getting upset over a little teasing already?" "Sigh, alright, I don't have much time either. Let me get to the point with you. What are you still waiting for here, waiting to die?" "I don't know, maybe waiting for a female Demon Lord to come swoop in and save me?" "You know Aurola has abandoned you. What are you still hoping for?" "...So what does this have to do with the Demon Lord? We only have a very shallow cooperative relationship; I don't think it matters if I die or not." "Of course it does." Priscilla smiled and pressed the blunt end of her dragon horn against his forehead. "Because I want you, but I'm different from Aurola. What she gave you, I can give. What she couldn't give you, I can also give. Didn't you want to choose monster girls? In the Demon Capital, there are all kinds of monster girls. You can pick whichever you like." "Then, are there fluffy and warm ones?" "...I think the ones with hard scales and slender, elegant physiques are not bad either." "Ahem, I digress." "Anyway, I understand you better than you think. As long as you come with me to the Demon Capital, I will satisfy your everything within my power. As long as you promise me one thing..." "I know." Lister picked up where Priscilla left off, smiling back at her. "You want me, right?" "What a smarty~. So, you agree?" "Mm. I'll go with you." 'And come on, it's fluffy monster girls' 'I can't refuse.'

The Descendant's forbidden mate

“By going into the lion’s den after getting bitten by the lion itself, do you really think it would cure you, Love?”  Alora’s body clenched which only evoked her desire to the peak level by hearing that dark and husky voice. And she knew nothing can be done to sate this forbidden craving out of her system.  She was a powerful hybrid then why? Why wasn't she able to heal herself!  Alora tilted her head and slowly looked over her shoulders to see those electric blue eyes that were becoming her ultimate downfall. But she hated this man more than anything who stood there in his mighty glory, behind her in the cold river.  “How are you bearing this heat till now, Lora? You are burning like a fire. It would kill you slowly into ashes. This heat is not normal but a powerful claim.”  “It's because of you.” Her voice held so much intensity which proved she was losing bit by bit.   Next moment, He yanked her body into his and Alora’s breath hitched as He wrapped his arm around her bare waist and nuzzled his face into her neck before inhaling her enchanting scent.  “You will be my death someday, Lora. You can't imagine what you are doing to me. It's fucking out of hell and heaven. This heat of yours is calling me.” He almost growled, suppressing his lethal beast. Alora chuckled without humor. “And You are supposed to do something in which you failed. Because of you I am in this condition. You can't fucking back off your promise and let me die here. You can't fucking leave me alone.”  And a red blood tear leaked out of her eyes which made him stiffened. Alora cried, she cried for the very first time. And He couldn't understand if she was crying for him or for her condition.  “I want this killing heat out of my body.” Alora's face turned as white sheet. And He looked down at the flowing water where her bloody tears mixed into and the green river suddenly turned still. He raised his eyes to her and asked, “Are you sure, Lora? Because this is beyond the forbidden. Once I make you mine, there will be no way out. No fucking way!” She looked at his rugged face, the powerful and mysterious man who could destroy the whole realm in seconds but He was asking for her permission. But she knew He was the last resort to get her freedom. Slowly she nodded and the next second she found herself drowning in the water with the utter burning sensation.   ******* Alora Dragomir, the powerful vampire-witch hybrid and the sheltered princess of the Black Bridge Coven was raised and trained by the King of Vampires for the purpose of getting vengeance from the Lycans.  Crimson Shadow is the moon guardian with secret identity, chosen by the moon goddess, to guard the Silent Storm gates behind which the old evil spirits were imprisoned. Erix Hartshorn is the last Lycan Prince whose big mistake, two hundred years ago, put all the supernatural realms in danger and thus caused the birth of prophecy made by the Moon goddess which includes the interaction of these three souls to tangle in twisted fate.    What will happen when these descendants from their own kind would strike each other unknowingly with different intentions and purposes by playing their own games.  Would prophecy made hundred years ago force them to go through the Betrayal, Revenge and conspiracies? Or will forbidden Love conquer everything, especially death which was written in the fate of one among them?  # Please be patient with the first few chapters. I assure you, you are going to get many surprises ahead. Now dive into the fantasy world with a spicy and powerful chemistry of MCs. And yes, It's HEA. # The cover belongs to me. Its commissioned.
