In the city of Gravif, Axel, a notorious thief, 'stumbles' upon a powerful artifact. Upon unlocking its abilities, the artifact corrupts his mana, causing it to plummet to -1. With this strange glitch, Axel becomes an unstoppable force. However, Axel, preferring to operate under the radar, opts to conceal his new abilities, not one for unwanted attention.

Yet, luck proves to be against him as the city of Gravif and its lurking demons have alternative plans.

I'll keep writing 'The Blood Magic User' and release one new chapter every day. This is another project I'm working on, experimenting with the system tag and adding my own spin. Thank you for reading!

Pressing the button, the wall slid down, and I entered Rusty Chalice. The place was in chaos; it looked like a brawl had broken out not long ago. Blood stained some of the tables and the floor. Two women and four men lay on the ground, alive but barely breathing. Barton, behind the counter, watched as Mira tried to diffuse the situation, her efforts in vain. Rusty Chalice was split in two, with everyone yelling and brandishing swords.

I furrowed my brow and tiptoed my way to the counter, sticking to the walls to avoid attention. Molly was nearby, her back against the wall and arms crossed, her expression clearly annoyed that her 'me time' had been interrupted.

"Hey," I whispered to Barton. "What's going on?"

"Fuck if I know," he grumbled. "I just came here, got behind the bar, then someone broke out a fight. Shit is serious, eh?"

"Yeah, looks like," I said, watching Mira desperately try to calm the customers down. "She can handle herself?"
