Reili

Having spent her childhood confined in chains, Alice was a child who knew neither love nor joy. Scorned by her family while being tortured in the name of the greater good for years, she grew numb to all feeling and thought. That is, until one day, a man in black offered her a chance to escape.

There were once rumours widespread of an endless hell, a land of glorious death and dreadful opportunity. Fools went in search of it, and the clever never ventured into it. Only when its baleful mysteries spilled unto the earth did all hear its name — the Abyss.

A single drop of its blood could give someone the power to control shadows, move faster than sound, or strength greater than the strongest man. Yet, it all came at a cost; the blood would always make sure those who consumed it became part of the Abyss, with one exception — Alice. Cast away by her own blood, it was her destiny to rot in a gilded cage.

But, that fateful day changed everything. Gifted a second chance at life, a chance to turn her life around and claim vengeance against her family, a chance to dive deep into the Abyss and gain the power to govern her own fate, Alice took his hand, unaware of the destiny unfolding before her.

Author Notes: 
This is my third book, going to take what I learned from before to improve. This book will be focusing on plot, action, depths of character bonds and overall a darker tone/take on this cruel fantasy world I've cooked up for this book! 
If you give this book a try, I hope you enjoy! A very different experience and tone to Nanomancer Reborn.

Abyssal Awakening

Seeing as how Alice was resolved to fight him, Jian Luoyan could only let out a sigh and accept her request.

After all, he was fully aware of how strong she is. Or at least based on what she has shown thus far.

If his disciples were to fight her, it would only bring more shame to the Sect.

Standing up, Jian Luoyan jumped down as an oppressive aura began to spread across the arena.

"Since you wanted to fight me, I suppose you have some ideas in mind. Hopefully, there will be ones without much explosive danger to the spectators." Jian Luoyan asked as Alice nodded her head.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to use what you think I'm going to use. It's too dangerous, even for myself. Instead, I have something else I want to test." Alice chuckled.

Her goal here was not to humiliate him or steal his martial arts.

Her goal was to simply test out her theories and make adjustments.
