Description
In a world where muscle is magic and size is power, Ged, a ruthless drug lord, is on an obsessive quest to sculpt the perfect physique.
Terrified of what an unchecked body sorcerer might become, the ruling authorities impose strict weight limits on their citizens and punish people for inscribing deadly magical abilities in their muscles. With a physique breaking more laws than one, Ged hides himself away in the underground, using the illicit drug trade to fund the relentless demands of body sorcery. Aspiring to rise to the stars like the legendary Cosmic Bodybuilders of the past, he defies a world that fears him, chasing an ambition others call impossible.
But as he grows, he realizes his true enemies aren’t the authorities or even the living world beneath his feet.It’s existence itself.
Ged unearths an ancient secret buried deep within the fabric of reality… one so devastating it shatters everything he once believed.
He tried to be logical.He tried to remain silent.But with the final piece of the puzzle in hand, he sees no other path forward...
"Reality can no longer be saved. I must tear it apart and replace it with myself!"

- WeavervaleRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Okay this is obviously a comedy or satire and I'll rare it as such. This is a funny fic. It's funny especially if you are a gym rat
Grammar is a five out of five and there are zero issues there. Stick with it, young master.
Story wise I'm not exactly sure how using kilograms as a unit of currency doesn't work. This is my main and only gripe. Like give us some more context for what the thing is but I know its coming.
Style This fiction has a normal third personality POV, which is good, something that I would like to say it's a standard for thing to do.They're doing the right thing and if I feel a little bit silly because it's a comedy but it comes across really well and it also comes across very clear.
The thing about that is that it would be improved by more running gags.
Style for me is a five out of five.
Character. The dialogue is snappy and believable.
That might be the biggest thing in it's favor.
It's got character.
It's got spunk.
Story
Hoo boy is there Story here. It is a tight ship. Another five. This is worth your time. - ZacheasRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Muscle Cultivation takes a really unique approach to another world's magic system. In this world body building, developing muscles, and putting on mass is a form of magic that can create items, enhance your body and give you powers. At the same time mass, or stones are their currency. It seems like the entire world works on body building. It's a funny concept but a serious story. Aside from the unique magic system it's a story of a young man trying to do anything, sell drugs, steal, do dirty dealings and fight to get himself out of the dark world he feels trapped in.
World building is very detailed. He has created an entire new way for the world and the universe works. The planet itself is a living character in this story.
Pacing: The pacing of the story is pretty good. There are constant threats from gangs, the law enforcement, the planet itself and other villains. The is a more than enough tension to keep the reader's attention.
Grammar and spelling. I did not see any spelling or grammar errors. The story was well written in this regard.
Characters. The characters have plenty of depth and have clear, logical motives. The MC is a sympathetic but ruthless character in a breaking bad kind of way.
Overall, the story was entertaining. Truthfully it is a strange concept, but the concept is well written.
