Journey to Discovery

Xeltar
Rei, a man wrongfully imprisoned and executed in his past life, is reincarnated as a newborn in a humble farming family. However, his memories remain intact, burdening him with deep-seated trauma, distrust, and an overwhelming desire to never be powerless again. Unlike others in his new world, Rei possesses no magical abilities. Instead, he discovers Spirit Arts, an ancient discipline that harnesses Qi and the forces of nature. Through rigorous self-training and an analytical approach using physics-based wind manipulation, he forges a unique path to power. Yet, Rei's journey is not just one of strength, but of internal conflict. His mother, Lily, offers unconditional love, yet he instinctively fears and avoids her. His sister, Hanna, tries desperately to earn his approval, but he coldly rejects her. The only person he trusts is his father, Thomas, whose training unknowingly pushes Rei toward becoming something beyond human understanding. As he grows, Rei must navigate the tensions within his family, the mystery of his past, and the limits of his own abilities. But with each step forward, one question remains: Is this reincarnation a gift, a curse, or an unfinished story waiting for its conclusion? This novel blends psychological depth, tactical combat, and a slow-burning character-driven narrative, offering a fresh take on reincarnation, power, and the struggle for identity in a second life.

THE CROWN OF WATERS

Noel Vallis, a young boy born into the noble Vallis family, has always lived in the shadow of expectations. As the heir to a powerful estate, his life seems destined to follow a strict path, but Noel has always felt out of place. Raised in a world of discipline and secrets, he yearns for something more—something that doesn’t conform to the rigid rules of his family. When Noel discovers his mysterious connection to the ancient koi pond on his family’s estate, he unwittingly awakens a dormant power tied to his bloodline. Magic surges within him, but it’s a power that cannot be controlled. A dark crystal refuses to react, and Noel is left questioning his place in the Vallis legacy. His only confidant, Ethen—his childhood friend and the son of his nanny—reveals that Noel is not just any heir, but the true heir to an ancient, magical legacy tied to the very land itself. The Vallis family’s secrets have been hidden for centuries, lost during the Empire Unification War. No heir has appeared in over 300 years, and Duke Vallis, Noel’s father, remains unaware of the true history that binds their family to an ancient seal—the Throne of Waters. This seal lies within the koi pond, a place that has always comforted Noel, but now holds a deeper meaning. It is a key to immense, untapped power, and only Noel, as the true heir, can unlock it. With the help of Ethen, Noel begins a journey of self-discovery and magical awakening. But the power within him comes with a price. As he grows stronger, he must confront his fears, his painful past, and the dark secrets of the Vallis family. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and Noel must learn to master the magic that flows through his veins, all while protecting his family’s legacy from those who seek to control it for their own gain.
