About the Book
The shadow of betrayal lurks in every corner.
Adam has taken control as the new Lord of Penumbria, defeated two fearsomely strong Ghosts, and stolen multiple abilities using his new Talent. Now that he's established his power base, he wants to do everything he can to improve his city's dismal situation, hoping to give his subjects an easier life.
If he's given the chance. A diplomatic trip to the Puppet Mines goes awry when a specter from his past comes back to haunt him. Adam is summoned to meet with the Painted World's Emperor, who is offering to legitimize the upstart Lord's position.
Yet Adam knows it won't be that simple. Uncertain of who to trust, he'll have to watch his back – lest he find a knife sticking out of it. Despite his best efforts, war might be inevitable.
So be it. They may have started this fight...but Adam will be the one to finish it.
Book 2 in this brand new Isekai LitRPG adventure from KamikazePotato, the bestselling author of An Outcast in Another World, together with Rafael Kalleen.
About the Series: Join Adam in this weak-to-strong progression fantasy where victories are difficult but earned. The plot has consistent forward momentum, and the story's cast of characters is fully fleshed-out, each with their own struggles. Fight scenes are high-octane brawls that involve creative applications of Adam's abilities.
