The System came to save humanity.
It just never said what humanity would have to become.
Elias Graile was a glazier, not a soldier.
He knew how glass broke. How it carried stress. How the smallest flaw could bring down an entire structure—and how the right fracture could save one.
Then the world changed.
Monsters appeared in the streets. Survivors were given classes, levels, and abilities. And when Elias was nearly killed beneath a collapsing glass atrium, his blood touched the shattered panes around him—and something impossible happened. The glass fused with his body, threading itself through his bones as the System awakened a rare class that seemed far too interested in what he had become.
Prism Weaver.
He can create glass from nothing. Shape it into weapons. Feel every shard around him. Turn windows into sensors, razor-thin threads into traps, and shattered fragments into weapons his enemies never see coming.
But power has a price.
Every level makes Elias less human. Every victory draws more attention. And the deeper he digs into the System, the clearer one thing becomes:
It isn't preparing humanity to survive.
It's preparing humanity for war.
While stronger survivors chase levels and territory, Elias begins building something the System never asked for—a refuge. A place where humans and creatures from other broken worlds might actually survive together.
That makes him useful.
It may also make him dangerous.
Because somewhere beneath the ruined city, an ancient Tower is waiting for someone strong enough to claim it.
And if Elias wants to protect the people depending on him, he'll have to become exactly what the apocalypse is trying to create...
without becoming the weapon it wants him to be.
Rise of the Glass Mage: The Fragile Apocalypse is a LitRPG progression fantasy filled with creative magic, tactical combat, evolving abilities, dangerous monsters, crafting, settlement building, and a protagonist who treats every battle like a structural problem waiting to be solved.
Glass is fragile.
So is everything—if you know where to apply the pressure.
Genre: Fantasy
