A bit after the Yin-Yang Sphere turned to its dark side and I fell asleep under the tree, Mr. Adamas returned to the throne room to find my father sitting on his high marble seat, contemplating the floor with a deep frown on his face, not even looking up as he asked Mr. Adamas the question.
“She’s resilient, and, as usual, more socially aware than one would expect from her age. To distract from her own fear, she decided to try her best to care for me.” Mr. ...
2025-10-26 13:29:17 +0000 UTC View Post“Yes!” Mr. Adamas had a big grin on his face as he moved forward, picked up Shaar, and threw the boy into the air before catching him. “My son is a little monster!”
And Shaar, in a rare showing, was giggling loudly as his father threw him up twice more.
“Okay.” My father, still with a big grin on his face, clapped his hands together. “We get it. We get it.
“But the important thing is that his elemental affinities are a good match for the soul beast his mother...

Hey everyone,
I have been working with my artist on the image that will be used for book 2.
What do you guys think? Any recommendations?
2025-10-14 17:39:38 +0000 UTC View PostHey, everyone!
I am working to start turning Shadow of the Soul King into a series of novels to be put on Kindle Unlimited. And, to that end, I have edited the first 47 chapters of the story on both RoyalRoad and ScribbleHub, mostly to provide more clarification for anything that could be confusing and to make a couple scenes in the story better match the cover art.
If anyone is interested, feel free to go reread those chapters and tell me if I've added any new confusing points or...

My dad looked from Shaar, to me, and then to Shaar again, standing on the other side of a meter tall pedestal with a clear crystalline orb on top that had been moved into the center of his throne room.
Adam Adamas, Shaar’s father, was standing next to him, wearing a black battle robe and towering over my father like he towered over everyone, his steel gray eyes showing nervousness while the ...

“No.” As the six-year-old me looked up at the giant light in the sky that was blocking off my view of the southern part of the Western Continent above us, Shaar reached out with his right hand and pushed my head down so I would stop looking at it, potentially damaging my eyes, all while still reading one of the books taken from my father’s library. “According to those who’ve done research on the nature of our dimension, the Y...

He was a muscular man, with fading indigo hair, glowing golden eyes, and green flames crawling across his skin everywhere his violet sleeveless battle robes didn’t cover, looking far younger than his 300 years ...

A Violet-Eyed Slasher Wolf—a 170 cm long wolf with violet eyes, black fur, and extra large metallic claws on its front paws—appeared on the ground in front of her and a Ruby Crystalline Sniper—a meter tall floating crystalline ruby sphere—appeared over her head. At the same time, she summoned out her two soul artifacts as well, a red necklace with a large ruby in its center appearing around her neck and a s...

He, unlike me, didn’t have the blood of emperors and immortals flowing through his veins. Instead, he was an orphan, then a servant, and then a soldier.
Eventually, however, he rose to power, and, during that rise, people started to call him by a lot of names.

“So, it looks like he’s finally ready.” Diana smiled as she walked up to Mila, her and Isaiah’s two year old son squirming in her arms.
“Yeah.” Mila chuckled slightly as her senses took in the A rank planet they were on, a completely transformed Tanavar, covered in natural landscapes filled with lush flora and fauna instead of an endless battlefield of blood and bones. And it was the center of a giant multi-galaxy spanning formation her husband had been setting up...

Elandra’s automatic defenses were more intense than Javandra had expected, shaking her soul even as she killed the woman, and this made a difference.
When the Heavenly Spark Soul King teleported right behind her, Javandra was a split second too late in responding, and an Elder God ranked bone sword covered in terrifying azure lightning cut off her head.
This, of course, wasn’t enough to kill even an E rank, but a piece of the lightning covering the sword jumped ...

As she continued to fight against Primordius with the help of the demon and the undead shade, Elandra thought back to the time before she’d caused her own death to escape from that same demon, back to the last time she’d been truly happy.

It had been four days, four days during which Bellessia would have died over two hundred times had her daughter and the dragon not been using her for training. And she was growing tired.
She’d been burnt. She’d been frozen. Necrotic magic from death element spirits had caused her legs and arms to wither before life element spirits revitalized them. And she’d been stabbed everywhere, multiple times.
For a while, she’d been hoping her father or someone else w...

As he watched the man’s left leg fully regenerate in a matter of seconds, even while diseases and curses ravaged his soul and his access to the power of faith was somehow completely severed, Arthur felt envious and rageful.

Primordius
The death bindings, combined with the curse that was randomly increasing and decreasing his soul defenses, the suppression from the universe, and the attacks from Arthur and Elandra, were bad, putting Primordius into the worst state he’d ever been in as an elder god. Then, somehow, Immortalia had shown up, obviously working with ...

Seeing the Mistress of Oaths and Deception and the Heavenly Spark Soul King interfering in the battle again, cursing the old lightning bastard and increasing the suppression from the universe on him and only him, Elandra grew excited. Sure, they were interfering with all sides, and possibly wanted her to die as well, but Primordius was quite a bit more powerful than she’d expected, even when he wasn’t using his most dangerous skill due to the presence of the undead. So, she ...

As she and Isaiah took out their anger at her mother by using the woman as a training tool, it really started to hit home just how difficult it was to cross ranks to fight at higher levels.
Their Laws were almost at the same grade as her mother’s, Diana with two True Laws compared to Bellessia’s three, with Isaiah’s four Laws all almost at that stage. Diana’s energy was more than a match for her mother’s due to her extremely powerful 72 Truename Spirits Yin Yang Co...

Primordius felt as his connection to the Primordial Thunder Universe began to weaken, and it wasn’t difficult to figure out why.
Like Primordius himself, his grandson had the Supreme God uniqueness, giving the boy extreme control over natural energy, while also empowering his stats by a factor of twelve when within his own Territory. And he had Primordius’s same class boosts to controlling natural energy as well, even while only a mortal, with several racial ability...

Arthur really hated Elandra. In fact, in his 72 trillion years of life, there probably wasn’t anyone he’d ever hated more.
Sadly, however, there wasn’t much he could do about her.
Born in one of the demon universes, he’d risen to power on the basis of his Law of Devour. But, more important, he’d risen to power through the use of his mind.

As he could sense her and would immediately attack, watching Primordius was pretty much impossible—while the other elder gods of the Prime Material were nowhere to be found—but the senses of the undead elder gods weren’t as refined.
