Hello!! I'm looking for a series where the MC, preferably an OP MC, has to hide their powers for some reason or another. I love this trope, although its often executed pretty poorly... Stories where it's done well are especially appreciated!
I think a very good example of what I'm looking for is Patriarch, the MOL fanfic. Without getting into spoilers, there's still powerful magic going around and people who know what's really going on, but subterfuge and politics are one of the primary objectives throughout the story. Saving the School Would Have Been Easier As A Cafeteria Worker (I think that's the title?) is another good example.
I don't have many things beyond that I'm looking for! FMC would be awesome but not a need, I'm fine with romance and polyamory but Harem is not something i want to read, and uhmmm no AI pretty please!!! If a story seems very strongly AI written I don't want anything to do with it.
if you have any recs that meet this criteria please let me know!! and as long as its not breaking subreddit rules to do so in the comments, feel free to self-promote too if ur story seems like smth id be interested in !! ^v^
