The Rebel Smith and the Forest Sage
(2025)(The third book in the Isekai Tamer series)
A novel by Leon Kageyama
His sanctuary is overflowing with new life. Now, he must trade with the outside world to feed his family, but in seeking allies, he finds new masters.
Ethan’s paradise has become a beacon of hope, drawing in dozens of new, desperate souls seeking refuge. But with this population boom comes a critical shortage of food and resources that threatens to shatter the very peace he fought to create. The only solution lies beyond their borders, in the cavern-cities of the dwarves .
His quest for a trade deal leads him to two powerful new women. Brynn, a brilliant but rebellious dwarven smith, offers him a lifeline—but only if he agrees to become the test subject for her line of revolutionary, and intensely personal, magical devices. Meanwhile, his growing power attracts the attention of the elves, and he is kidnapped by Elara, a cold and beautiful sage who sees him as a dangerous anomaly to be studied, restrained, and… thoroughly analyzed.
To secure the future of his home, Ethan must surrender his body to the whims of these two new, demanding women. His intimate ‘cooperation’ is the price of their alliance. He will be bound by magical vines, subjected to dwarven contraptions, and pushed to the very limits of his sanity and endurance, all in the name of ‘research’. Each session is a battle of wills, a high-heat trial that will either break him or forge unbreakable new bonds.
But while he is away, his family is not idle. When their king is stolen from them, the warrior women of Paradise unite. Led by the cunning lamia Sela, they must launch a daring rescue mission into the heart of the elven kingdom, proving that their bond is stronger than any magic . Ethan may have saved them, but now it’s their turn to save him.
This novel features an ever-expanding harem, cunning new monster girls (a dwarf smith and an elf sage), kingdom building and economic strategy, unique and detailed high-heat encounters, and a protagonist who must use his wits as much as his power to survive being the most valuable research subject in the world.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
