The Mana Engineer : Book Two

Eric doesn't need stronger spells.

He needs better designs.

After being targeted and nearly taken apart by people who saw him as property, Eric Elwyn stops thinking like a mage and starts thinking like an engineer again. Artificing becomes his answer: layered defenses, adaptive runes, and mobility systems that turn the battlefield into something he can navigate instead of endure.

Each breakthrough makes him harder to catch.
Each success makes him harder to ignore.

With allies at his side and enemies hiding behind authority and civility, Eric races to build faster than the world can close its grip. Because the next time someone comes for him, they won't be taking him quietly.
