Darth Nox

Nox was always a strange child, and his father kept him hidden in a secluded village that no one knew about. He had a peculiar "gift," as his father called it—a strange condition that would put his body into a sleep-like state. When this happened, he’d become completely frozen, unable to move or speak, trapped in one position. But Nox was never truly alone. He had a friend—a monster—that cared for him during these episodes. This creature warned him about others who shared his gift, dangerous people with powers like his own. One day, the village where he hid was destroyed by a monstrous being his father had always warned him about. After that, his monster urged him to wander, to travel—a life he had always been denied. But Nox never expected that he would have to leave so soon or in such dire circumstances. Now, he must face others with this mysterious gift, testing his strength against those who may be just as dangerous as the monster who destroyed his home. The time has come for Nox to battle and discover his true purpose.

I mean, how was something so insane even possible? Copying a skill itself was very bad-assed, and you mean to say he could evolved the copied Skill ten times it's initial power, exponentially surpassing the original owner? Why would the gods let such broken talent even exist? 'Well it's just one way to find out...' Luckily just then, he saw two powerfull beings fighting mid air. Their fight sent shockwaves billowing in all directions, causing Nox to take a couple of Steps back. At that moment, he activated his talent...

Every character, no matter how minor, has a backstory. Nox, too, holds a intricate past that will gradually unfold throughout the novel. _________________________________ This novel has taken inspiration from some of my favorite novels, such as: Leveling with the gods Second Life ranker Omniscient reader's viewpoint Solo Leveling and many more....

This world is not kind, he will have to survive not only the challenge of reclaiming god hood but dealing with a world that would gladly do away with him. Cover art isn't owned by me, original owner feel free to request I remove it if you so choose. This is a work in progress I've had sitting in inkstone since around the time I started The Immortal Kobold, you may note a drastic difference in chapter lengths, this was typed before I settled on a "standard" for myself so they range from 1300 words to 2900.

The arch lich Balthus has a secret, his humble beginnings saw him as a reincarnated human. Sent to the world as a simple skeleton, the God that accidentally killed him granted him a boon that in seven centuries saw him rise to power over a vast yet surprisingly benevolent necropolis. Decades later Balthus is schemed against and thrown down by the generals who guided him to power. Yet as death drew his soul away, he found himself before the God again who apparently didn't register his life as 'Balthus' with the Goddess of reincarnation. Her bi millennial inspection is coming up and she needs his name in her book, like last century. Whats a God to do? Give the lad a second chance of course, clerical error isn't his fault! Yet his time as an arch lich has made the lad proud and vying for more he offends both gods to reclaim his old power in his new life. Testing the patience of one God is bad enough but the goddess as well? Sure he gets a second 'rebirth but if he wants his powers he'll have to crawl through hell pits to reclaim it, such is the punishment the deities curse him with. note: Cover art isn't owned by me, should the owner require i take it down i shall gladly comply. note 2: When I finished the Immortal Kobold I decided to try a different take, originally called the Immortal Necromancer it evolved into this...
