Toph Discovers Metal

The Alchemist’s Son

Damian Thorne, a 25-year-old struggling artist, leads an ordinary life in a bustling city—until the day he receives a mysterious letter from a long-forgotten relative. His estranged grandfather, a reclusive alchemist, has passed away, leaving Damian his secluded estate in the countryside. Intrigued, and with little to lose, Damian decides to visit the property, only to discover that his grandfather’s legacy is far more complex than he imagined. At the heart of the mansion is an ancient, hidden laboratory filled with cryptic notes and strange, alchemical equipment. Damian quickly learns that his grandfather was part of a secretive alchemical order dedicated to uncovering the Philosopher's Stone. His grandfather had been on the verge of a breakthrough—one that involved transmutation of not just metal, but reality itself. As Damian delves deeper into his grandfather's research, he starts experiencing strange occurrences. Time warps. Shadows move on their own. Old enemies of the order resurface, determined to seize the secrets Damian has inherited. To protect his life and the legacy of his family, Damian must master the forbidden knowledge of alchemy before it consumes him. In a race against time and enemies both seen and unseen, Damian discovers that the true power of alchemy is not in transmuting gold—but in unlocking the secrets of life, death, and the universe itself. However, every step he takes closer to mastering alchemy brings him closer to a dangerous truth: that some knowledge was never meant to be found.

Reincarnated Into A Cultivation World With A Gun

Earth, 2040: An alien spacecraft crash-lands, bringing with it a disease that transforms humans into undying monsters. There is but one way to slay these abominations—a bullet forged from the debris of the crashed spacecraft that turns anything it touches into lifeless metal statues. A soldier, Lieutenant Jin Shu, and his platoon are tasked with rescuing survivors from a ruined city. Disaster strikes when the platoon is assaulted from all sides. Lieutenant Jin Shu is struck by a monster's claw, causing his weapon to backfire, injuring him with the bullet that was meant to be his hope for killing the abomination. Yet, in a cruel twist of fate, this will be what takes his life. As he slowly transforms into a lifeless metal statue, he takes a look around to see nothing but death and devastation. Jin Shu awakes to find himself and his weapon in a new world—a world of cultivation—as a runesmith. Jin Shu will use his newfound knowledge of runesmithing to create a unique blend of modern weaponry and runic weaponry, creating something this new world has never seen before. ___________________ This novel is a mostly lighthearted tale of a man reincarnated from a world on the brink of extinction. With his weapon, he will take his second chance at life and enjoy journeying with his gun and a fluffy winged companion through the new world he finds himself in. It's a bit of a slow start, but please give it a chance; it may surprise you. (It's definitely surprising me... I have no idea what I'm doing... someone help me...) __________________ This is my first ever novel. In fact, it's kinda the first creative thing I've ever written. So, my writing may change over time as I'm experimenting with different ways to write. __________________ This novel is being posted on Scribblehub, RoyalRoad, and WebNovel. The content is the same regardless of where you are seeing this. __________________ **Disclaimer:** I have used AI to proofread my chapters before I post them. I'm super bad at punctuation, so I use AI to edit the punctuation. The exact prompt I use every time is "Fix the punctuation."
