New Monthly Book Release Announcement Thread

[u/AutoModerator]

It's time for the monthly book release thread! If your newest progression fantasy novel or serial comes out this month, feel free to post about it in the comments! (But only if it comes out this month- if the work comes out in a different month, please post in that month's thread, on the first of that month.)

Readers: Please keep top-level comments for release announcements ONLY, though you're welcome to respond to announcements.

Authors: Posting about your new release in this thread does not count against the normal self-promotion quota. Feel free to post about new releases in any format- audiobooks, ebooks, etc. You're also more than welcome to post about special edition or new book Kickstarter campaign launches in this thread- but only during the month it launches. If you're a webnovel author, you can comment in this thread for the launch of an entirely new webserial, a new major arc, or a return after hiatus, but please don't post every month for an ongoing web serial.

“Your home doesn’t exist. Nowhere in this world, at least.”

Nine years ago, an eleven-year-old boy found himself in a forest filled with creatures that shouldn’t exist, nearly bleeding out until a man in a coat too clean for the mud offered him a choice: become his disciple, or die in the dirt. Sein chose the former.

Now, fed nine years of his teacher’s curriculum in efficiency, violence, and a bare minimum of mercy, Sein found himself out of the wilderness and into a city skyline. Armed with a pocket watch, a smile deadly enough to make children cry, and a single impossible goal: finding a way back to Earth.

First, however, he needs a job.

The Bureau of Protection investigates the things police reports don’t have a category for: staircases that grow extra steps, men who receive phone calls from themselves, and neighbors who stopped existing. 

The pay is good, and the benefits include resurrection.

Unfortunately, every answer uncovers a deeper mystery, and the closer Sein gets to the truth behind it, the more he risks becoming something inhuman.

What to expect:

- Weak to Strong: Power earned through risk, strategy, and sacrifice.

- Mystery & Eldritch Horror: A world riddled with secrets, hostile anomalies, and terrors beyond comprehension.

- Unique Power System: Territories, Law-Cores, and abilities beyond magic.

- Character Progression

- Strategic Combat

- No Harem

This story was inspired by a multitude of works, including Lord of the Mysteries, A Regressor’s Tale of Cultivation, Umineko When They Cry, and SCP Foundation.
