[Urban supernatural powers + apocalypse + growing protagonist + academy + single heroine + not a power fantasy + no room for idiots]
[I'm just telling a story I've been wanting to tell]
For countless millennia to come, the gods will remain silent, and humanity will endure;
For countless millennia to come, our rivers and mountains will be safe, and our nation will know peace;
For countless millennia to come, we will guard the bulwarks of Huaxia and fight across every land;
For countless millennia to come, legends will never end, and stories will be passed down through the ages;
For countless millennia to come, the flame of life will burn on, and human civilization will continue without end;
For countless millennia to come, our banners will proudly stand upon the borderlands, and our people will prosper!
This is a story of encounters. In this world transformed by disaster, a naive young man stumbles through its ups and downs. He encounters shattered cities and buried histories, those who protect and those they protect, a national idol, a proud and powerful young noble and his maid, a cheerful girl at a martial arts school, a simple boy from the mountains, his master and his own student. He meets all kinds of people and hears all kinds of stories. Then he encounters enemies, killing, and the shattering of dreams against reality...
I'm Li Ci'an. One day, when foreign enemies invaded, someone said that raising our swords was like raising a battle flag. So I stood watch through that long, long night, until at last I understood: bustling streets are the sign of a thriving society, and lights in every home are the sign of a peaceful nation. So I don't want to stand guard anymore. Seventh Squad, it's time to open the gates in the night.
Keep it up, author! You absolutely have to finish it. Your writing is truly excellent. Although I've only read a little bit, it's much better than other works on Tomato. Forgive my lack of words, I can't quite describe it, but it just feels so comfortable to read and I want to keep going! 😂
Sometimes I wonder who I can share these fantastical stories in my mind with. I have so many stories, but no one to listen. I think it's time to tell my own. Five stars, no explanation needed, haha.
Well written! Since you have a story to tell, I'll be one of the few readers now. I really enjoy the character development and the author's writing style.
