About this story

Alex was just trying to escape his dead-end job and overbearing family. Then the System arrived, bringing with it magic, Rifts, and the chance for ordinary people to become extraordinary. Unfortunately for Alex, his stats started out as unimpressive as his old life. But when he gains the unique trait {Primordial Will}, which only allows him to put his free points into one stat, everything changes—though not necessarily for the better. This is a slow burn story with Alex learning a lot about magic, himself, and his friends. There are moments that just show normal life, and some that feel like there is no direction or plot at all. There are some very high-octane, adventure moments where the numbers go way up, and there are also some losses that aren't going to feel great. Losses happen and mistakes are made, but our MC will continue to grow stronger.  This series follows Alex as he begins to master the art of Mana Threads and creates a revolutionary new magic system with Spell Circles. He starts to realize that magic isn’t just a tool—it’s a path to power that few can fully grasp. But with the world’s governments struggling to contain the rising number of superhuman threats, Alex will have to navigate more than just monsters and Rifts. In a world where “might makes right,” who really calls the shots? Book releases on Amazon on December 9th. Preorder the eBook or audiobook here!  What to expect: - Slow story by RR standards - The "stuck in a Rift arc" is about 20 chapters and has Xianxia elements - A realistic take on how Earth adapts to System integration. - Weak to Strong to Godlike MC - A unique magic system creation, blending rituals and runes to create Spell Circles. (This happens gradually over the first two books. Then he uses it for the rest of the series.) - After Book One, there are a lot of party dynamics, creating a large cast of characters. Chapters are 3000 words on average, with three chapters released weekly. Currently taking a break to prepare for Book 4! Read ahead on Patreon! Join the Discord Community!
