so.... besides the obvious stolen dialogue, our stories both coincidentally have
— a ravenclaw head girl mc who is the youngest sibling of a renowned wizarding family trying to make a name for herself and values academic success greatly (both introductions are literally in the library as well)
— a trio of friends consisting of said mc, a quick-witted, sarcastic best friend (in the new version her name is nasrin too... nasrin.. nadya... whatever) and another best friend who is pureblood, less intense, more bubbly. they also have the same character designs which, again, wouldn't be weird if not for everything else.
— in the old version, jolie even added a nice little detail that nadya's plagiarized counterpart, parvati/nasrin, previously had a crush on tom riddle but aludes to her actually being gay.
this has been edited in the new version to give this line to colette's counterpart instead and just says she had a crush on tom — the liking girls part has been cut out. they're just no longer gay ig. tfw your token gay character is too reminiscent of the story you plagiarized so you have to revoke her lesbian card. nadya and colette sweetie i'm so sorry
— tom riddle taking notice of mc and bringing her to his private library where she finds mythological and religious books. in paper confines: celtic folklore and catholic rhymes (+ other biblical themes), in jolie's fic: greek myths (+ a warning at the beginning of her book for religious themes, so i assume there will be more)

and more i probably couldn't be asked to ss because i think this is damning enough.
@iovekilling just take the fic down and keep it down instead of making these slight changes. you have 4k followers and FIFTY-ONE more books you could be writing instead. can you just let this one go ???? i know the plot and characters are compelling and i appreciate the compliment but you can just read mine. it's free!

Genesis Wave
Skills, Attributes, and Experience. These are familiar elements to any tabletop RPG. Jack is intimately familiar with these terms from years of playing games, so he is shocked and excited when the entire world is integrated into a system governed by those elements. Follow Jack as he works to understand and navigate the new world around him. From heartbreaking losses to amazing experiences, Jack's life will never be the same. A slow build, slice of life. Blue Mage MC who learns skills from monsters. Skills are not intuitively known and must be trained to be able to use properly. This is not a rapid rise to power story. It's more of a pseudo-Isekai. As the setting quickly changes to a Fantasy one. (with elements of steampunk and sci-fi but not until much later) The story does not get very adventure-y until chapter 17.
8 204Celestial of the Void
A young man stood at a height of 1.8 meters with an exceptional and noticeable toned physique under his beasts fur clothing. His light-brown skin illuminating under the rays of the sun with an above average face, chiseled jaws, straight nose and slightly thick sword-shaped eyebrows. His brown eyes, deep like pools of honey with a shade of violet hiding within the irises, hinting a mysterious impression. Throughout the span of 3 years, his raven black hair grew past his back, tied up into a simple ponytail.Realizing fate has given him another chance reincarnating into a new body and coincidentally under the same name, Silver. Coupled with his million years of experience and knowledge allowing him to break through the realms with ease. He begins his journey through Desolate Tundra, challenging the emperors of this new world while obtaining a power that none can even grasp.Will he rise to the top and change the era to a brighter path or become another common straggler on the path to cultivation in a once beautiful continent, now riddle with demons and beasts lurking in every corner?
8 123The Chronicle of a Witch
It is a story about a young girl that abruptly transmigrated into the body of another young girl (at least in appearance) in another world filled with Magic. She notices that she becomes a Dungeon Master and for a thousand years... she lives a lazy life. However, one day, she lost all of her power and she is kicked out of her Dungeon! And the world's changed that video games level and classes governed the power system of the new world! What will she do as a weak and fragile girl? Will she get her power back? How will she survive in the harsh world? Author's note: I will update daily if possible and each chapter is around 2,000 words. Gores, Sexual Contents, and Traumatising Contents are limited and I try my best not to write them. However, for the progress of the story, I can't help but write some of them in the latter part of the story. However, don't expect them too much ^_^ English is not my native language, so there might be grammatical errors (maybe a lot), but I'll try to fix them, so constructive critiques will be appreciated (^_^)

8 143The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
8 282Sector B
Decha is a genius high-ranking general, called back to Austell from The Outside by the council. Theodore Chen, the director of the Crime Affairs Agency requests for Decha to do some local investigation on the recent threats targeting Austell's most prestigious University, Grandell. The job is easier said than done. Decha has to go to Grandell undercover as a student again, investigate a great number of students and pick out suspicious behavior. The problem is that Grandell has few students from the opposing Sector, the Brackets. Sector B is full of people who are of the lower class. They work as much overtime as possible to make ends meet. Decha's mission entails that Sector B residents are most likely responsible for the threats directed at Grandell. While trying to solve the mystery under the radar, he gets involved with a Bracketer woman who oddly refuses to leave his side.Decha will have to uncover hidden truths. He may even go through a journey of self-discovery and have a deep understanding of how the Sector's flawed system truly works.
