All creations carry a trace of the maker's ethereal energy, whether deliberately placed in the magical Artifacts made by the Alchemists, or unwittingly left in the handiwork of ordinary people.
Kazia can feel that energy, in both machines and people. She may not be able to do any of the grand magic other Alchemists can, but give her a damaged machine and she can trace its energy to the problem, and know precisely how to repair it. She does have one other ability. One far more dangerous. One she will never acknowledge, and will never use.
Fleeing her villainous father rather than becoming his pawn, Kazia finds a peaceful life on a farm in a neighboring country, where no one knows that she is the daughter of Prince Gorvan Devratha. But with war looming between her birth country of Valesk and her new home in Caedra, how long can that peaceful life last?
She can be safe in the Caedran capital, among the Queen's Alchemists, but will anyone there trust her – especially the handsome but embittered Lord Kelvaran Meratha, who suspects Kazia's father of murdering his family?
Abrizhen is Kazia's older brother. He does his best to play the role of the Prince's good son and heir, but when tasked with retrieving his wayward sister, he must return to the city he'd called home for many of his youthful years. There he'll have to reckon with his past, and finally choose between the life of a dutiful prince, or the welfare of his sister – and the rekindling of an old flame.

Content/ Mature warnings are on for:
Gore: Nothing terribly extreme. Some bleeding wounds and broken bits, but all limbs remain attached and all innards remain inward.
Sexual Content: It's not all smut all the time, but there is some. I aim for not vague but also not overly lewd. Smut chapters are labeled NSFW. Chapters with very brief smut or just some torrid making out or somesuch are labeled NSFW-ish. All on-screen depictions are consensual, but there are a few passing references to noncon having happened off-screen (not to any MCs).
Strong Language: One character really loves to swear, and could probably construct an entire monologue with just various inflections of the F word. So, yeah, that's on too.
Other CWs: Dark themes (abuse, trauma, ptsd, depression, unhealthy coping mechanisms). Mostly in discussions of past events, but there are a few scenes that may be troubling to some readers.
Being A Mage Is Boring, So I Created A Class For Myself
'This fucking world…sigh…If only I could be isekai'd like those novels.'
A pipe dream. It was impossible in the real world, I knew that. A fiction was just a fiction after all.
But then a new virtual reality game named Chaos brought me hopes. I could finally escape this hell. However, my new life faced another huge obstacle.
'Damn lady luck never smiles upon me...'
Then a time skip happens and finally, my interesting life begins. 😁
Author's Note:
Beware: This story has a slow start. And I like to show character relationships and interactions among them more.
I'm a non-native, and this is my first English novel, therefore my writing pace is still slow and the use of words isn't that good yet.
Also, I might be editing a bit here and there from time to time, which shouldn't affect the story.
I'll be publishing every Sunday and Thursday for now.

My Sister The Villainess: Alternate
Tell me, what does one do when they discover they were reincarnated into an Otome game as the villainess’ playboy older brother?
Of course I had always been aware of my situation as a reincarnated person, but it was only when my sister’s engagement to the Crown Prince was announced that I finally encountered a piece of my first life after all these years.
I thought, “Hey, this is exactly the same situation as that Otome game I was playing that day!”
But wait. My sister becomes the evil, hated villainess whose fate doesn’t ends well at all, you say? As if I’d allow that!
The protagonist wants to steal your man and ruin you? Too arrogant! This daddy(brother) will mess her up good!
I’ll completely crush all the people that want to harm my precious, adorable little sister!
Just fall in love with the Crown Prince and achieve your happiness, my sweet sister!
This is such a story.
…Except my sister seems to be a blooming bro-con? And the heroine keeps looking at me funny…

As if maintaining some form of professionalism hadn't been a struggle enough, Yosef fails horribly after Tory saves him. Intense emotions conflict with his vow, his own insecurities and the nagging fears that won't shut it and leave him be. Literally.
