AntiHero's FIRST REWRITE IN THE WORKS - thanks!! :] EDIT 2/28/22 - sorry, health problems right now, but I will post after rewriting the first 80-90,000 words or so and start fresh from there!  Expect the change to be uploaded before summer!  So long as I can keep using my hands, that is~!  ^_^  X] This story will indeed get fleshed out as my vision improves for the better.  But I feel the need to emphasize that a lot of parts are written in improvised comic book format as my primary writing style, and this first book is actually the entry point and starting novel for an entire very vast series I am in the works of developing.  Many side characters here will eventually be main characters with there own stories; long or short.  But this one particularly will be focused and centralized around Noel.  Because of this, I do plan to leave the introduction for side characters as still having a special flow for readers to witness a tad of their background, so keep that in mind after my 'obviously many' rewrites from now and going into the future! Sorry for the troubles!  I will improve on my style and implementation of the story!(Although I DO plan to keep parts as 'play style' or rather, comic book style, since I find it easier for certain dialogue instances as well as the fact that the novel is inspired by that 'feeling' you get while reading comic books.  But my style is still evolving, you were warned!) Thank you! - Noel Tyler Malierano.  He's the youngest 'son' to receive approval from 'The Malierano Family': A Criminal Organization of hitmen and hitwomen that specialize in killing, even maintaining success within a vastly superpowered society.  Noel finally manages to complete his training as the newest 'Elite' killer his family created...but, there's just one problem - He doesn't want to kill!  Come along and delve into a society of conflicting morals through the eyes of a boy, desperately searching for a new path to follow.  Can he even manage to free himself from his father's engrained teachings and ideals? Conversely, will killing prove a lot more difficult to ignore?    --- -->  Thank you very much for reading!  It would be helpful for me if you all consider leaving me a comment or an inbox suggestion, a review or even a full rating wherever AND whenever you believe I need to improve on anything or if something I wrote irked you!  I appreciate EVERYONE that comes to read my story, however I DO want to improve my work as a writer.  I hope all of you who don't like my work will let me know somehow, so I can edit and IMPROVE my story as a whole!  Thank you everyone for your time! --- JUST TO NOTE!!  When a character has a cultural name like, say, a Japanese or Russian name, that is because that character IS Japanese or Russian!  They don't have to be FULL of one ethnicity either - sometimes they will be mixed.  This story mainly takes place on an artificial continent where all countries have sent over their respective talents, meaning characters of ALL cultures and ethnic backgrounds will show hints of that in their names.   Please don't assume I'm just randomly naming characters names that don't match them.  And feel free to talk to me about whatever in my story troubles you - no matter how small! I love to improve.  ^-^ X] --- Just to note: Characters will slowly grow as time passes. Slow pace.  THANKS for reading!  Enjoy! :] ---  Decided to post 2 chapters every Tuesday and Friday instead of taking a small break, but I MAY upload once in a while on different days, such as Sundays, in addition to those two.  :]
