Lord of Mysteries: The Little Witch Refuses to Give Up

“No, seriously, I have absolutely nothing to do with the Witch Sect. Yes, I’m on the Assassin pathway. Yes, I used to be a man. But I really didn’t drink the ‘Witch’ potion on purpose, wait, no, nobody forced me to drink it either. I didn’t want to turn into this. I snatched the potion right out of a Witch Sect member’s hands. How was I supposed to know that advancing from Instigator had this kind of side effect? Colonel, please believe me. I’ve lived my entire life upright and honorable. Wealth, status, glory, which of these didn’t I earn with my own two hands? Everyone knows I’ve rendered great service to the Kingdom! Let me see the King! His wise Majesty George III personally decorated me with a medal- Hey, that’s prejudice! I didn’t seduce the King, and there was no backroom deal. That’s what witches do. I’m an honorable female knight- What?! What do you mean, ‘If you’re willing to become my personal maid, I’ll let you go’? To hell with you! I’d rather send you to the Lord of Storms’ kingdom so you can reunite with your mother!” **** Accidentally drinking the “Witch” potion and turning into a petite young girl? Just a minor setback, hardly enough to extinguish Chloe’s ambition to make a name for herself and climb the social ladder. Yet amid the turbulent currents of an age in upheaval, how could that ever be easy? The Eighth Bureau, the Church of Steam, and royal conspiracies weave a tangled web of competing powers. The revival of ancient gods, the Industrial Revolution, and a world war make every step forward fraught with difficulty. In the steel jungles shrouded by steam and mystery, only a blade in hand can cut through the net of fate and forge a legend that will endure through the ages.
