From the Start, I Drew a Circle and Made a Million-Man Army Spin in Place

For eleven years, Zhang drew talismans, and every single one was a failure. The good-for-nothing apprentice from Linjiang City was publicly humiliated as people tore up his talismans and trampled them.

Then one day, he casually drew a circle, and Linjiang City's greatest genius was stuck on a doorstep for **half an hour.

What he drew wasn't a talisman, but a path, a grinding maze, a circle you could never escape.

It trapped people, trapped fate, and trapped an army of a million. His enemy, caught in the circle that made you “walk forever,” had been going round in circles in the same place for ten years.

Only Zhang knew that every time he drew a circle, another mark appeared on his hand, and he moved one step farther away from being “human.”

Then one day, at the center of a circle, he found a line of text: “The day the circle is complete is the day of your birth.”

Only then did he understand that the first circle he had drawn was himself.
