Description
In 2016, Earth was invaded by the Rithenal Empire, a multispecies empire encompassing over a dozen star systems. Because of Sol System being at a strategic juncture of warp gates, if one could conquer the system, they would gain a great advantage over the other powers in this arm of the galaxy. Unfortunately for the Rithenalese, humankind was not so powerless as one might expect. Previous invasions had left their mark, even if the general public didn't know about them. The explosion of a Krax Imperial warship over Siberia in 1908 gave humankind mutant abilities, while the capture of a Ross'Ell science vessel in 1947 greatly advanced our technology. While governments fell to the surprise attack, a resistance was formed. One member of the Resistance was feared above all others by the Rithenalese. An assassin who conjured mists that no living thing emerged from, they began calling him the Mistwalker. To the humans, they knew him as a thief and assassin called Iceblade. This is his story. ----------------------------------------------------- The setting is a world of superheroes and sci-fi, and our main character who may not be the most powerful out there, but is willing to do whatever it takes to win. No matter the cost. This is my first story, and something I'm writing in my free time, so updates will be sporadic, but I won't drop this project without letting you know. Rated R: Definite language, violence, gore, (maybe) sex, and all the horrible things that can happen in the world. There's a bunch of tags because I haven't decided where this will go just yet.

- BlaszczeMRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Overall it's great! Time skips are a bit confusing, the last one at least, with the sister. Maybe make a short chapter about what happened in the 3 years? Also I like the MC a lot, the dark anti-hero with a harem :D I hope you progress with his Toys. And will the first arc be the introductory one, then invasion?
- OPMeatbunLoverRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0I’m really speachless (thrice) *ehem* enough with that .. i love this story and i’m getting goosebumps from the excitement .. some might not like this as much as i do so i guess each one it’s own hahaha really cool mc and he’s not the strongest.. no but he laughs while stepping on the strongest people while they shiver in more reasons than one .. he’s not the strongest but when he comes the enemies just feels Death among them.. i don’t care about other’s opinions haha i just love this! And thank you for this author please don’t drop this
- Silencer7Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0One of the very best on this site, seriously tanx for sharing
- alexanderyouRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0The first volume is kind of a prelude where he gets his powers and sets up the story, most of the action starts in the second volume. What happens when aliens invade the earth? Super powered people capture some ships and start a grand old pirate adventure with plenty of loot and booty :P
- darkness422Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0this is the one of the very few novels that i can read and have over and over the character is a amazing villain in the fact that he dose not destroy for no reason and instead dose it to get what he wants. i usually find villains from other novels to have no real reason to do what they do other then being insane and i will say i will support you for as long as you write and then some.
- Chaos JesterRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5I came in this not realizing the story was going to cut off early to push Amazon, but hey, it's marked completed, so it should count. Also, it's on KU, so it's now in my library.
Style wise, this was an interesting read. I think it did a good job establishing the universe the story takes place in, the character's feelings on the world at large, while then also putting the MC against their opinions by dragging them into what they hated. I enjoyed the stream of consciousness chapter, but thought the author did an excellent job of moving from that to a different style without it being too jarring.
Grammar-wise, I didn't see too many issues. There was once or twice where word choices seemed a bit repetitive but nothing awful or glaring.
The story itself is a neat take on powers, and I'm glad to see ice getting some recognition in fiction around here. I enjoyed it enough to download it to continuing reading. The prologue/backstory is intriguing and seems to set up for something great.
The character himself is very love-to-hate in these early chapters. Most of the readers around here would kill to suddenly receive powers, so anyone who would have them begrudgingly is kind of a shock. That slow burning acceptence paired with the annoyed murmuring the MC seems to give off is an enjoyable way to express this development.
Overall, this was an interesting read. I'm still not sure if I enjoyed it personally, but from a technical point of view, it did it's job. Here's hoping continuing to read it is worth it. - KaidenFuryRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0I only wish it didnt end, but all good things must cometo an end.
- bubbleduckRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0At first I thought I would only need one, but now I'm not so sure. But one thing is certain, if I could take my frustration out on him just for a short time, I would end it by apologising and asking for his autograph. I can respect his strength and general badassery as much as he as a person disgusts me.
The main problem with this story - rape. When you have 10+ members of the harem and all of them became a part of it because of the main character raping them, that is not the sort of story that appeals to the majority of people. I struggled my way through for the sci-fi elements and honestly I was a little disappointed by them towards the end, mostly because of world balance. I'll get to that later, though.
We start off with style. This is pretty good although I deducted half a star for colouring text. I had no problem with it until I realised that without the colours there is no way to tell who is speaking at any point in time. It's fine to use colours to add information to the text, but it should never take the place of other information sources. If your story doesn't make sense when the formatting is removed, you're doing something wrong.
Grammar - I noticed a few minor mistakes, mostly incorrect words that wouldn't be found by a spellchecker, but it's more than readable. Imagery is detailed and mostly feels fresh.
*Disclaimer*
I respect that the author has well-written characters and an interesting story, especially at the start. I didn't take off stars for points that I felt contributed to this story but I personally didn't like. What I attempted to criticise were decisions made which had an obvious negative effect on the rest of the story for no gain in return - at least no gain to most people.
*End Voice of Reason*
Story - Now. Here's where your problems begin. The first thing I want to complain about is the rape porn. You see, the worst thing about it in this story wasn't that it was rape. The problem was you dedicating entire chapters - CreeperTheReaperRoyal Road★★★★ 3.5This is a wonderful story however the latest chapter/ chapter 10 made me want to remind you of the original goal which is an alien apocalypse. Now the thing about supers and magic is fine and all but plz any chapters with sexual content unless they have something to do with the overall plot should be titled as a special. Your at a turning point right now do you make this story like re-octipus gag like funny and hot. Or do you keep the serious mood you have been having(has a much bigger fan base then sex surprisingly) and bring about the alien apocalypse that was fortold in the prologue. Honestly I think you should scrap chapters 8-9 and go in another direction. But I am not the Author i will stick around until at least chapter 20 though.
- RznRoyal Road★★★ 3.0The author has stubbed this out despite it being marked as completed. The writing itself starts as this large info-dump and then goes to a stream of consciousness style for what is left on RR. This stub is indicative of the prose and writing quality that exists in the published version, complete with scene declarations and all. What remains here is the rougher opening chapters. I do not think I can go into detail about what is not on RR anymore, but other reviewers have. If an ice power evil MC is of interest to you, then this might scratch that itch.
