love behind the masks

Shoved into the backseat of his father's car right after graduation, Riley Hale ended up marching toward a company building with a bagged lunch and a pen. Still in his toga, the fresh graduate never thought he’d land in the office of the continent’s top lizard, err, dragon, as his aide. And that would’ve driven any person wishing for a corporate career to tears. After all, who wouldn’t want to serve the fastest ticket up the corporate ladder: Kael Dravaryn, the infamously elegant, unhinged, and extremely overpowered Dragon Lord of the continent? Well, that would be Riley. The same Riley who didn’t expect to spend his days dodging fireballs, dressing his boss in robes more complicated than dark magic, and serving as a literal target during morning sparring. Now trapped in a job he never truly agreed to, the hardworking aide decided to hold out until it was time for his glorious resignation. But leaving a dragon’s clutches could never be easy, especially one with elemental mastery and a finger worth a private army. Yet, as Riley, who longs to quit, attempts to navigate ancient politics, wyvern threats, and other accidents (many of which are definitely not his fault), he might just hallucinate himself into seeing something beneath his boss’s arrogance and molten glares. Maybe he’d actually care if Riley got turned to ash.

Legends are not born. They are forged — through pain, defeat, and unbreakable will. Leo, a boy from a small village in Nepal, always believed he was ordinary. But everything changed the day a forgotten evil awakened in the mountains — the Dragon Spirit, once sealed away by Leo’s own father. Kaito Jin, a rogue wielder of beast power, breaks the seal and unleashes chaos. Leo tries to fight, but he is powerless. His father sacrifices himself to protect him. That day, Leo loses everything. But he gains one thing — a reason to rise. Carrying the scar over his left eyebrow, the memory of his father, and two unimaginable spirits inside him — the Lion King (Guardian of the Gods) and the Phoenix (God of Fire), a power connected to his mother’s soul — Leo begins a journey across nations. In China, ancient masters push him beyond his limits. In Korea, he learns discipline, philosophy, and inner balance. In Japan, he encounters powerful rivals and a girl who slowly changes his life. In India, Indonesia, and other countries, he faces challengers, builds friendships, and discovers new forms of martial arts. From international tournaments to mysterious beast realms, Leo must face fear, rivalry, loss, and the uncontrollable powers within him. Because one day, he must confront Kaito again. Not as a weak boy… but as the strongest martial artist the world has ever known. This is World Martial Art — a journey of strength, growth, destiny, and the flame that refuses to fade.

In a distant past, the seven Ancestral Beasts clashed, and the blood they spilled rained onto the entire plane, infecting humans and animals alike, making them part of their powerful bloodlines. As a small village’s hunter, Liam was unaware of the consequences of that legendary battle. His sole goal was to become a cultivator to gain the strength and resources he needed to avenge his family. Yet, when Liam’s Ancestral Bloodline awakened, he uncovered a connection between his family’s killers and the Dragon King, a connection that could expand his revenge to the entire Kingdom. -------------------- Discord link: https://discord.gg/mefzf3aQJ8 Instagram: eocnovels X: @EoCNovels Cover artist: https://digitalrowye.com
