City of Blades

In a city where every contract can end in blood, the truth is decided by steel. Evan Vale thought his life would be simple-an IT job, a steady routine, and a longsword chosen long ago in the Rite of Selection. But when a rooftop duel with a smug office rival spirals into Guild-Hall challenges, cyber-heists, and corporate sabotage, he finds himself at the heart of a conspiracy that could rewrite the city's future. Here, every citizen carries a blade. Every duel is law. And every record can be bent by those powerful enough to control the archives. When hackers strike a master smith's forge, when rivals exploit Guild politics, and when enemies sharpen their steel in the shadows, Evan must fight not only for survival, but for the truth itself. Because in this city, rumor cuts as deep as any sword-and once your story is written into the Guild archives, it's permanent. Fast-paced, sharp, and relentless, City of Blades is a speculative thriller where tradition collides with technology, and every victory must be carved in steel.
