This story follows numerous characters in their journey across the Astus Empire, where the people wield their souls in physical form, their Soul Circuits. Threatened by the Demons that inhabit the continent, the people wield their Circuits in defense of their homes, or as weapons turned on each other. Stories intertwine, and lives are changed forever. Follow stories of adventure, hatred, love, curiosity, madness, fear, hope, and revenge. In a world where hate begets hate, will the cycle ever end? Aike is a reckless young boy, living in the capital city of Highmaw with his strong-willed and skilled older sister, Claire. Born into despised bloodlines, they must fight to be recognized as equals in their home. With the Olphidia Demon Hunter Academy's Grand Tournament closing in, Claire must take this chance to prove to everyone that they are more than their bloodline's past.  Hello everyone, I hope you enjoy reading Soul Circuit! This story will likely be very long, though I'm not sure exactly how long just yet. I have a lot of ideas for it! I've filled this world with years of worldbuilding and lore, and hope to share it with you over these chapters.  Just a warning, this story contains a lot violent content and descriptions of gore, as well as a few more adult themes (no explicitly sexual content). The story will get dark, and deal with topics like mental illness and self-mutilation or death. A few of you may recognize the title, and yes this is a rewrite of a previously released fiction of mine (that was at 104 chapters). I released the older version of Soul Circuit three years ago, but stopped writing due to a dissatisfaction with my writing style at the time. Now Soul Circuit is back and (hopefully) better than before! I promised that I would finish the story no matter what, and I'm keeping my word.
