The Humble Life of a Skill Trainer

In a world where guilds hoard knowledge like treasure, Joshua Still runs an illegal Skill Trainer business—teaching Tailoring without a tailor’s license, smithing without a guild’s blessing, and magic without a mage’s approval. Every guild with coin and clout despises him, but his under-the-table service thrives through bribes and anonymity. Joshua’s quiet life of research and training is shattered when the local Baron summons him. Now, he must navigate political intrigue, protect his forbidden trade, and survive a kingdom where teaching a skill can be a crime.
