《Let's Form a Party to Kill God》Eliza
Advertisement
Kynos was relocated from the primary school male dorms to the university researcher apartments. He had taken over a recently departed mage's living space, free due to his scholarship. That particular mage was off in Ailize, warring with the pirate confederation.
His new home came with several amenities, including a modest kitchenette and an extra room which the previous owner stocked with books and had been using for research. He also gained access to the public baths, magic practice arenas, and other facilities as part of the deal.
As he had skipped secondary school, which taught advanced subjects and honed magic control, he was now part of the college, which taught specializations and functioned as the apparatus that carried out the will of the mage's council. Kynos dropped off his meager belongings and headed off to meet his new mentor.
Her name was Eliza, titled the Root of Life, and she held sway over the growth and decay of all living things. One of the more powerful casters in the world, she took the eighth seat of the nine-person council and is one of the leaders of Incanta. She was a few years the senior of Roland and Charlotte, fellow mages she met at university, but looked like a younggirl, no older than Kynos.
She greeted Kynos as he walked into her study.
“Well hey there, you must be Kynos?”
Kynos nodded, giving a quick dip of his head in courtesy as Mith had taught him.
“A quiet one? We'll see what I can do about that.”
Kynos, in a burst of effort, gave a quick, “Pleased to meet you.” Eliza motioned for him to take a seat, and continued.
“You're lucky. I'm so damn busy these days, but I owe Mithandra and that underclassman. He used to be so cute, but now he's just a pompous dick.

Well, I can't do shadow magic, but trust me, I can teach you plenty. Also...”
Kynos tensed up out of habit as he sensed the door opening behind him.
“...you will be training along with my daughter~~ have a seat and introduce yourself honey!”
A slightly-gloomy looking young girl, with light green hair and her mother's dark green eyes, looking around the same age as Kynos, walked in and sat shyly in the chair next to him.
“P..pp...pleased to meet you,” she stammered in a quiet voice, “I'm Elise, a life mage like mother.”

Summoner's Journey
[Before you read - the story is officially dead. The reasons behind it are posted in the last chapter.] In a magic world on the verge of an industrial revolution, Ari Ragnarsson must uncover the truth behind his parents' disappearance. They were part of an organization known as the Order, which protects mankind from various threats - both human and supernatural. Now, after Ari's brands finally manifest, he leaves the safety of his village and travels to the continent. Strength is all that matters in this world and he must learn how to control his powers. There, he meets a man from another world, who's being hunted for merely existing. Their fates become intertwined, but not in a way either of them would appreciate. Author's note (contains minor non-story related spoilers about the MC and setting) This is a progression fantasy with LITRPG elements sprinkled on top. The main character is not a spellsword, but a summoner/support mage hybrid. Since he wasn't ambushed by a random god, there's no cheat item/spell and he has to rely on his skills and wits to survive in a world full of monsters. The story tries to show the moment when the old starts to be replaced by the new, with a healthy dose of magic and a little steampunk in the background. Also, it revolves around a party dynamic akin to RPG sessions. No health/mana bars. Numbers are secondary and the LITRPG elements focus more on classes/spells/runes and their evolutions. Tables are sparse at the beginning, but from chapter 7 onwards they appear more often. Still, I won't be copy-pasting the whole character sheet dozens of times per chapter.
