Hehe, I'm a Filipino as well. Proud to be, actually! Mabuhay ka, for creating a unique story. I'm still reading your story, actually. Hope you don't mind if gets delayed for a bit, but I'll make sure to comment on every chapter of your story and then post up a review. Salamat for reading my story, I appreciate it! :)

Also, please look forward to it once I release the next chapter next week. I'm still working on it, actually. I'd be most grateful if you continue to support the story then and after that! :)

It's okay. I don't mind the errors like word spelling and such. I was once like that too, then I simply got better by reading a lot of books and whatnot. What matters the most for me is the story's plot, creativity, world building and the lure of the story. So far, yours is doing a good job despite its flaws. It reminded me of the apocalyptic world of God Eater and 'Only I Level Up', what with the way monsters suddenly appeared.

Just pour your heart and soul into the story, and I'm sure you'll do fine! :)

Thanks for adding my story in your library, and for the stone as well. It tells me that you really enjoyed it, despite the lack of chapters. I'm glad to see that another reader has enjoyed my first official story! :)

The_Canary Yeah, G's right. It can help you a lot, and I recommend keeping a dictionary with you as well, It is a very handy thing to have. It's your friend when you need to use alternative words to describe something! :)

Also, look into more mythological monsters in the web. They can help you expand the story and world building!

Joy_Zakaria just copy the web address and paste it here.

The_Canary Okay, Sev. Finished reading your story! :)

Overall, it's a promising one. The only issues you need to work on is, obviously, the grammar, more on the plot cause it's kind of giving me that typical trope that you see in anime these days.

Like 'transfer into the supernatural world, gets admitted into a magic school' and such.

Since this is your official story, don't be afraid to be different. People may be estrange to it at first, but when they see a good story plot that has the potential to become great. Something unique, and never seen before. They will come and read that story. Even though my story is only two weeks old, I thought it wouldn't get popular, but I was proven wrong when I saw the amount of people reading it and adding it into their library.

It gave me hope that I'm doing something right, and I hope the best for you as well! :)

Regius_Sanguis yes! Will try to edit the older chapters, once I have extra time. Right now, I'm just pouring all my thoughts to my new chapters. :)
I can only do my writings every weekend, since I have full time commitment during weekdays :(
But thank you again! I really appreciate the tips you gave. This made me motivated to improve my craft more!

The_Canary That's good to hear! :)

If you need new sources of ideas, I highly suggest pouring over a couple of interesting stories that is similar to genre that your story can relate. Since your story is a fantasy-adventure that has the setting in a school, I highly suggest the ones with the same genres as well. Like... RWBY or Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei.

The second one is very good in my opinion. In fact, some elements of my story from that LN (and anime) comes from that, it got magic, action, and the setting is also in a school. So you might want to look into it! ;)

Also, think about what kind of audience you are targeting. Are you targeting readers that are more into regular xianxia stories, who needs a quick fix? Or readers that are more into western fantasy?

Obviously, I'm of the latter since I'm a fan of western fantasy. That's why my chapters are long and detailed. It was simply done on purpose. I hope these tips and advice will be of help to you in the future, despite that it comes from someone who is also new in the writing world... (^_')
