《Zao Ning. The Reincarnated Cultivating Dragon.》Chapter 3: A Son's Need for his Mother
Advertisement
SPLAT!
The man's head explodes and covers the naked child's body head to toe in blood. The child lands on the ground and the thudding of a man's body hitting the floor echoes throughout the room. Zao looks around and sees that the only man still alive was the first one he hit.
This was on purpose of course. Zao walks over to the man and then picks the man up by the hair. Being basically tased and not being able to move, the man could only watch and wonder what the freakishly strong boy was going to do to him.
Wondering how Brain Numbing Wave works on low-level humans, Zao opens his mouth and sends out a sound wave that cannot be heard by Base Mortal Realm humans. With it only being directed at the criminal man, he was the only one to feel its effects.
"Uhhhhhhhhhhhh..."
Only moans and groans manage to come out of the man as his brain begins to lose function as time goes on. Wei can only watch as a horrifying boy seems to be torturing her attackers. Wei then panics as she goes to pick up what she believes is young baby Zao inside a bundle of cloth, but the baby is gone.
Wei then looks back to Zao and the man but the man is now brain dead. Zao lets go of the man's hair and the man's dead body slumps to the floor. Wei knows that she should be mortified by this boy's actions, yet she feels an attachment to the blood-covered boy.
Zao then turns around to look at his mother and his smiles at her.
"Hello, mother." the boy says in an alluring tone. Though not on purpose, everything about Zao Ning is attractive and alluring. It is most likely due to being in the Fiend Realm in his past life.
"My baby... Zao Ning. Is that you?" Wei Ning says while she manages to choke back tears. She had feared for her life and feared for her baby's life, yet here he is. Killing people like he was simply squashing ants.
"Yes, it is me, mother. You are probably quite confused." Zao Ning says with a sophisticated tone.

"The truth is I am what you would call uhhhh. What's the word for it?..."
Zao taps his chins as he tries to remember what the human's called a reincarnated being.
"Oh, that's right! A Bodhisattva." Zao is proud of himself for thinking of this random fact on the spot. Wei just looks at him with wide eyes and she seems dazed and confused.
"A-A Bodhiwhatnow?" Wei says as she has no idea what a Bodhisattva is. All she knows is that her son seems to be something above what Wei can comprehend.
"Basically, a Bodhisattva is someone who dies and has a chance at eternal peace but decides to reincarnate. I have a past life but I have been reborn as your son."
Zao Ning left out something details as this usually only involves humans, and also the fact that this is only a concept and isn't proven at all. Wei Ning looks conflicted at first but she can sense the connection between her and the 4 year old looking child.
"I had never realized that my son could be something so amazing!" Wei says as she is rendered nearly speechless. Truth is, she doesn't fully understand what Zao is talking about at all, yet with it being her son, Wei Ning believes the boy fully.
"Yes, I am amazing mother." Zao says as he puffs out his chest and acts arrogant for once in his human life. Wei Ning claps at her son and they both can feel the warmth of familial love fill their bodies.
For once in both of his lives, Zao can feel himself being attached to someone.
I didn't have these feelings for my wife in my past life. Does it have something to do with the fact that I have a human soul now.
Maybe it was from the fact that Zaragnathor had married his wife because she was strong and they would have strong offspring, not due to love. That could also be why Zao's family had killed him but we won't tell him that.
"Well young Zao, that blood must be have an icky sticky feeling on you! We must wash it off soon." Wei Ning says while talking to Zao in a baby voice. Zao rolls his eyes at this but doesn't deny the fact. Having a human body is horrible in itself, but having a human body that has an uncomfortable feeling covering it, now that's pure torture to the ex-dragon.

Wei Ning takes the cloth that she had once used to wrap around baby Zao, and then gets up and stands beside Zao while putting out her hand. Zao looks at the hand for a second and has a confused look on his face.
"Don't just stand there ya dummy, hold momma's hand and let's walk to the nearest water well." Wei Ning says as if she is scolding the young Zao.
Zao looks appalled at the woman's remark.
THIS HUMAN HAS THE AUDACITY TO CALL ME, ZARAGNATHOR DUMB?! I SHOULD RIP OUT HER TONGUE AND-.
Zao's angry thoughts are cut off by Wei Ning sighing and picking up the fuming child.
"I see, you're still wanting mommy to pick you up and carry you. You're so spoiled." Wei Ning says while giggling.
"Spoiled?! I will have you know that I once ruled the Realms and-!"
"Yes, yes. You are being very fussy today, you know that? Is it that you're hungry?" Wei Ning says while offering a breast to the screaming child. Zao stopped mid sentence and his stomach began to rumble.
Impudent wench knows my weakness... I'll get you back mother!
...
After I finish eating though.
Zao doesn't hesitate and begins to enjoy the feast his mother is offering him. Wei Ning just sighs as she walks down the empty street and goes towards the nearest source of water.
Finally arriving at not a well, but a small creek, Zao has finished his meal. Having his stomach full and the uncomfortable sticky feeling getting worse and worse, Zao manages to wiggle out of his mother's tight grasp.
Landing on the ground not so gracefully, Zao runs at high speeds towards the creek and jumps off the bank.
Spreading his arms outwards in mid air, Zao does a belly flop straight into the water.
SPLAT!
...
...
...
"OOOOOWWWW!" Zao yells as he surfaces from the water. From his face, down to the tips of his toes are now red from the impact of the intense belly flop.
WHY DOES THIS BODY SUCK? MERELY JUMPING INTO WATER HURTS SO MUCH!
Zao roars in pain and Wei quickly hurries over and jumps into the water. The water is about waist deep to Wei but Zao has to swim in order to stay above the water.
"My poor baby, come here." Wei says as she picks up the sniveling boy and soothes him by petting the boy's head and holding him tightly.
The pain covering Zao's body quickly goes away as love fills its place. Zao realized how weak a human's body truly is at this point yet he also realized how strong a mother's love is. Just by holding Zao, the pain has washed away.
With human mother's having such an amazing power of pain nullification, then I can train everyday til I can't move and then be cared by mother...
I must protect this woman at all costs and bring her to the top with me, no matter what.
"Mother, when I become hurt, will you hold me like this, even if I'm older." Zao asks with a straight face. Wei thinks for a second and then giggles at her young child.
"Of course I will you dummy, that's a mother's duty. I don't know how your wife will feel about it though." Wei says playfully.
AND THERE SHE GOES AGAIN, RUINING THE MOMENT BY INSULTING MY INTELLIGENCE. GGAAAHHHH! I WILL KILL YOU WOMAN!
Zao is screaming in anger inside of his head, but on the outside he just has an angry face and clings tighter to his mother. Unbeknownst to Zao, the emotions of a human are beginning to mix with the emotions of a dragon, with all of it starting from a son's need for his mother.

Oh, hi. Uhm, can I ask you something? Great. So, let's say that you died but then you reincarnated. Pretty cool, yeah? And what if you reincarnated into a different world? Even cooler. But what if you reincarnated into something... non-human? What would you do? And what if you then realized that you are not the protagonist of the story? Yeah, it's kinda weird. But hey, at least I'm one of the good guys. Right? //This is my first story. Please leave a comment what you think so that I can make it better. Will also contain some gore later on. Enjoy ;) //
8 274The Choice
‘Should we be loyal to an unjust ruler?’ This is the dilemma before the citizens of Magadha . They ask themselves - ‘Is it safe to be a fence sitter?’ ‘Is it prudent to emigrate?’ ‘Is it time to rise in revolt?’ No citizen is immune, each must make a choice! Disclaimer: All events, people and some places in this novel are fictitious. Though the novel is set in 5th Century AD , India, the life presented is an amalgamation of different eras and imagination. Infact , much of the understanding of the society at that point of time has been gained from Kautilya’s Arthashastra which was first written seven centuries earlier.
8 81Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met. His eyes swept about the trees, and he could feel an instinctual urge to drag himself away. He knew what this forest was, and here, he would find his salvation. Or his doom. The voices behind him grew closer, and among the noise was the faint clanging of steel. Gritting his teeth, he ousted all the will he had from the depths of his soul and stepped forth into the forest. Damned he be by the Gods if they wanted him dead. -new synopsis 10/6/2016 ---------- A new chapter would be released every friday. And the quality of writing should improve each time, hopefully. Another important thing to mention is how the story as of now, is only a bedrock for a massive world if it ever gets there. (CH18) And if possible, reviews are very much appreciated. ---------- For the ones who are interested in the old synopsis: With one foot in the grave, he ran away for that little bit of hope. Exhausted and bleeding, it was only a matter of time until he passed out. By then, his fate would be sealed and he would be no more. Thus, he had to make a decision that might just save his life. It was a gamble, he knew, but he had no He ran into the forbidden forest where no man had ever come back. He headed within, intending to scare his pursuers away. But they persisted in their chase, hounding him down until he was forced to take a step of no return. There, in the darkest depths of the forest, was the ghastly fog and behind him where men who wanted his head. Left with nothing else, he stepped forth and crossed the boundary of the living and the dead. Henceforth, his fate was forever changed. No longer just a scholar, but something more…
