Highest-Rated Agent Thanks to My Sorcerer System

In a world overrun by monstrous creatures and dark entities, humanity is forced to fight back. A renowned organization has developed an advanced evolutionary method to combat these threats, using technology that creates Systems through a combination of neural interfaces, high-tech implants, energy conduits, and Magic Cores. A machine studies each Magic Core, revealing the powers and traits it contains, and fuses them with a compatible human host. Through this process, it channels and amplifies raw magical energy, simulates hidden abilities, and generates extraordinary skills within chosen individuals—allowing them to access the supernatural being’s power and gain strength far beyond normal limits. During combat, each individual System records battle and performance data. The System then evaluates their performance, combining public ratings with its own analysis to produce a final ranking. As the world evolves, many of these dark entities also adapt, learning to blend into society and becoming nearly impossible to detect until it is too late. Ezekiel is chosen to wield the Sorcerer System, granting him the power to control magic. Alongside him are his squadmates, each equipped with their own Systems, combining their abilities to undertake deadly missions. Together, they face formidable enemies, navigate a society where danger can emerge from anywhere, and uncover hidden conspiracies that threaten humanity itself.

The Accidental Tyrant: My Social Anxiety is a Lethal Weapon

Alexander “Alex” Scott is everything a kingdom could want in a crown prince. He’s six-foot-three. He has the kind of stare that makes grown generals forget how to breathe. His magic hums like a loaded weapon. When he walks into a room, even the High Mages go quiet. Kingsworth sees him as a cold, inevitable force of nature — the perfect heir to his terrifying father. The truth? Alex is a mess. He’s twenty, chronically anxious, running on three hours of sleep, and one poorly timed intrusive thought away from leveling a building. He would like, ideally, to eat a muffin in peace. Maybe take a nap. Definitely stop accidentally vaporizing people because his magic reacts to stress like it’s preparing for the apocalypse. The Premise In Kingsworth, magic answers intent. That’s the problem. Because when Alex panics, his magic doesn’t flicker — it tightens. It compresses. It coils like something about to detonate. To everyone watching, it looks like he’s calmly gathering the power of a dying star before passing judgment. Inside his head? He’s wondering if he left the stove on. Or whether his sleeve feels wrong. Or if everyone in the room can tell he has no idea what he’s doing. When an execution goes horribly right, Alex accidentally solidifies his reputation as something monstrous. His father, the King, finally looks at him with approval. The court starts whispering about destiny. The rebellion takes notice. Now Alex is trapped in a role he never meant to play — navigating a palace full of predators, a kingdom that worships strength, and a father who believes mercy is rot. All while trying not to implode reality during a mild anxiety spike. His goal? Survive the political season. Don’t trigger a magical catastrophe. Maybe prove he isn’t the villain everyone thinks he is. What Readers Can Expect The “Cringe-King” Dynamic A constant clash between Alex’s spiraling, painfully relatable internal monologue and the terrifying, mythic figure everyone else sees. Accidental Overpowered Moments He’s not trying to dominate every room. He’s just stressed enough to bend physics. A “Monster” with a Heart Alex wants to help people. Quietly. Subtly. Without anyone — especially his father — realizing he cares. A Brutal World Kingsworth is built on the belief that weakness deserves extinction. Empathy isn’t admirable — it’s dangerous. And Alex’s secret softness might be the most rebellious thing about him.
