[important message]
okay so the novel starts out a bit slow with little to no action scenes and more about providing info on the world and the MC
Also,truth is i was confused about what to put as a warning notice or whether to put one at all because although the novel might contain some salty language there's really nothing too extreme. also I'd like to guarantee that there are no smut scenes. there might be some times when it almost happens or it did and I might not just go into it in detail or skip it altogether. plus there might be some times with extreme gore and torture both physical and psychological (mostly psychological) especially considering I want who as far as you know is the MC and most characters surrounding him to be as heartless as possible , and I want it to be clear that the MC is by no means a good person and won't hesitate to do some morally questionable stuff to achieve his goals,although not without reason. one last thing is that at first it might seem like I'm trying to make him powerful from the start for no reason but it's mostly due to specific circumstances. okay bye!

Zen wiped his lip, cleaning the blood and straightening himself.


He looked up at Jade, dozens of thoughts running through his head.


First of all. He'd gravely miscalculated on both ends.


He was much weaker than he originally anticipated and Jade was much stronger. He'd already expected a similar stat boost for her just like after he completed his first evolution but he didn't think one hit from her would feel like getting rammed into by a beast.


Feeling the taste of metal resurface he quickly stopped himself from spitting blood again, swallowing it. Luckily his healing had started dealing with it 


Nobody else spoke but they were all looking at Zen strangely. No one had expected that outcome, especially not Jade herself, and it didn't look like Zen had faked that reaction either.
