: "Let your words flow like a river, carrying the weight of your thoughts and emotions. Allow them to dance on the page, painting a vivid picture for all to see. Embrace the power of language and let it guide you towards self-expression and connection with others.": Johnathan, an elderly man with a remarkable past but an unremarkable end, is reborn in a dark fantasy world filled with magic, darkness, and hidden secrets. However, he made a grave mistake by using the fiction he had read as a guide. Reincarnated as a baby, he hoped to impress others by speaking at an early age. But things took a tragic turn when the villagers accused him of being possessed by a demon and called upon the church for judgment. Renamed as Sylvester Maximilian, Johnathan realizes his mistake and prepares himself for his second death as the church's inquisitors come to burn him at the stake. In a final attempt to welcome his impending death, he begins chanting holy hymns, which unexpectedly causes the inquisitors to kneel, believing him to be a messenger of Solis. And thus, the story of Sylvester Maximilian's rise to power begins. But his life in this new world will not be ordinary. Using his cunning and the title of "God's favored," he navigates through treachery, uncovers secret plots and mysteries, and faces the darkness that surrounds him. He strives to make a name for himself in history, earning the title of the Immortal Pope, The Young. However, do not be misled by the title. The novel does not revolve around Sylvester instantly becoming the Pope. Instead, it follows his journey as he fights to claim the supreme throne at a young age. If you enjoy stories with intricate world-building and lore, then this is the perfect read for you. The main tags for this novel include fantasy, adventure, magic, darkness, a strong but initially weak MC, wholesome moments, comedy, kingdom building, and a mentally mature MC. Politics, backstabbing, and world-building are also important aspects of the story. But be warned, the MC will not go around saving everyone. He is not a hero and will not put himself in danger to save others. However, if he can use his status or position in the church to help someone, he will do so. And although Sylvester may seem dark at times, he is not crazy, cynical, or unsociable. It is important to note that the religion in this novel is completely fictional and has no relation to our world. While some of the church's terminology and designations may feel familiar, they are simply vocabulary words. Everything you read in this novel is purely fictional and has no connection to reality.
