Trinity of Magic [Progression Fantasy]

Ezekiel (Zeke) is determined to become an exceptional combat mage, bring prosperity and honor to his village, and leave his mark on the world through his heroic exploits. But first: Go to the capital and be accepted into the Elementium, the firstmost combat magic academy of the Empire of Arkanheim, along with his two best childhood friends as well as his childhood bully. It'll be fine... right?

This is a SLOW BURN FANTASY PROGRESSION (delayed) LITRPG story. ;D

Here's what I mean by that: The main character does not start out strong in the story, and while he catches the eventual lucky break, he also has to fight tooth and nail for pretty much every advantage. The story has dark parts (such as bullying, personal struggles, and loss), but I try to keep the overall vibe of the story positive, so people still have a good time reading along.

This IS a LitRPG: There *will be* game elements such as a status screen and skills - but this is NOT a "game world"! Instead, I have tried to integrate the interface elements into the world with a very thought-out magic & power system, which will be developed and built over the course of the first book. This world doesn't work like a game, where you can put '5 points in strength' and the body somehow changes magically into a stronger version of itself. It might take a couple of chapters for the world and magic to start to make sense, but I feel like a power system built on solid principles is a lot more rewarding in the long run (...and more IMMERSIVE!).

English is not my first language and there might be some grammar and/or spelling mistakes in the story, although I try to be good with my editing. ;-) I'm happy to receive any kind of feedback, and I hope you enjoy the ride!
