《The Immortal Dragon And Dragon Girl》Chapter - 20
Advertisement
As I woke, I found myself alone.
Looking around for my friend, I could not find him
“Hello?! Where are you!”
In a panic, I searched
Scanning around wildly
I’m alone.
I’m always gonna be-
“Human, wake up.”
Shooting myself upright, I was rudely greeted by the sun.
Aaaah, my eyes!
After being in the forest for so long, you kinda forget how bright the sun is
Anyway, rubbing my eyes for a bit and blinking away the pain
I managed to see
And to my surprise, I see a burning phoenix taking up my view.
“Ehm, goodmorning!”
“Human, you hugged me, you got burnt.”
“What?”
Looking down on my body, I found that my shirt had burnt down and the skin on the middle of my chest coloured in a light hue of pink.
But weirdly enough, it didn’t hurt, nor did I feel burnt.
“Before I could differentiate who was hugging me, I let my flames take power. When I realised it was you I turned off my fire and healed your burns.”
He did what
Wait, he burned me, then he healed me?
“Human, I must ask, do you have an immunity to fire? Or a very high fire resistance?”
Waitwaitwatiwatit
Wait, a whole second now
“YOU BURNT ME! And.. and AND THEN YOU HEALED ME!”
“Yes, answer my question.”
“No. YOU ANSWER MY QUESTION, IF YOU CAN HEAL ME, WHY HAVE YOU NOT?!”
“I did not want to, now answer my-“
“WHAT DO YO-“
“SILENCE, IF YOU WANT TO TALK SPEAK NORMALLY, I WONT ACCEPT ANYTHING ELSE!”
You stupid, STUPID DRAGON
WHY SHOULD I CALM DOWN
DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH PAIN I’VE GONE THROUGH?
AAAAAH
Jumping to my feet, I start stomping around.
Flailing my arms and screaming in frustration

YOU STUPID DRAAAAGON!
----
A few minutes pass before I finally sit down
Breathing calmly
Or at least trying to.
“Okey, ahem. I’m calm now. What was your question?”
“Hrmpf, As I said. Do you happen to have immunity to fire? My fire should have scorched you to the bones.”
“No.”
“No? Answer me more clearly human, I need answ-“
“You keep secrets, so do I”
...
A silence emerged.
The dragon starting to heat up, visibly fuming
But nothing more. He stayed silent, calm.
“Dragon, I have question. Why have you not healed me? I mean my legs and stomach.”
“I have already answered you.”
“No, you said you don’t want to. That’s a non-answer. Give me a proper one. ”
“Only if you tell me about your fire immunity”
“I won’t. But tell you what, I’ll tell you how I got this supposed fire immunity if you answer my question”
The dragon stood silent.
Flames calmly licking his body, as if having a life of their own.
“Very well. The reason is very simple, I do not find it beneficial for me to heal you. Nor do I really care if you die or suffer”
Oh.
So that's how you feel about me
Even after our adventure
How much fun we’ve had
I’m just nothing to you?
“Aha, I see... Well, my answer is that I was born with it”
“Born? That does not answer my question human”
“Yes it does, not my fault you where not specific enough.”
Flames burning bright, filling my entire view as the heat made me sweat
“How.. HOW DARE YOU HUMAN!“
“You did the same to me. Now we are even.”
Saying that, I turned away from the dragon, picking up the few belongings I had and started walking.
Tripping over some cracks in the ground
My back starting to heat up, the little clothing I had left
Burning to crisps.
I continued walking, not minding the heat.
Head turned down
And a frown creeping to my face, with brows equaling it.
Eyes focused, but watering
Making my view blurry
Stupid dragon
You can be so stupid.
I thought we were friends.

A Virtual Invasion
An invasion from another dimension is shut down by an Empire's traitor and the world has a scant few decades to build the strength to resist a multidimensional Empire. How will the world fair when no one even knows its doom is one barred gate away? Fortunately, the traitor has a plan. Maybe with a bit of luck and planning, he can build a force to defend the world without anyone realizing it. Author's Thoughts: What is litRPG (From wikipedia) - LitRPG, short for Literary Role Playing Game, is a literary genre combining the conventions of MMORPGs with science-fiction fantasy novels.[1] LitRPG is a literary genre where games or game-like challenges form an essential part of the story. A LitRPG work simultaneously narrates the story of characters inside and outside of the game-world. At least some of the characters in a LitRPG novel therefore understand that they are playing a game: they are 'meta-aware'. So, while Tolkien's Lord of the Rings is a fantasy novel, a book about people creating avatars and interacting in a Lord of the Rings MMORPG would be a LitRPG novel.Why do I read them? You know, I am not too sure. I love MMOs. I played them, quit them, joined up and repeated the cycle. They are fun! They are a massive waste of time but so are most games. Do I want to read about someone else playing them? Sort of?The advent of VR and the possibility of VR someday becoming so immersive that you can't tell them from reality sets the imagination on fire. What if this could be life? But most stories fall short. At the end of the day the protagonist hangs up his VR helmet and goes to have dinner with his mom and dad or other family and it becomes meaningless. It's like the story that ends because the main character woke up and nothing you read matters.There have been some books that explore the concept of the intersection of reality and total immersion VR. Enders Game is a classic. There were a few others that escape me but they exist, however, the cross between the game and reality is weak.So what if the game was real? The technology needed for total immersion VR is so advanced that by the time we reach that goal technology should have naturally evolved to include several items. You must have direct neural input. You simply can't have a total immersion (all senses and perfect presence) experience without this basic prerequisite. If you have direct neural access, you can probably do neat things like feed knowledge and skills directly to that person. You can undoubtedly do many horrible things as well. Muscles are controlled by the brain. If you control the brain why would you let the body just sit there and rot? A person that sits unmoving for 24 hours a day will have their body whither away just like a coma patient. However, if you control the brain you could control the muscles. On a basic level, this would be isometric impulses, working muscle group against muscle group to avoid atrophy. Taken to its logical conclusion you would be able to gain muscle mass and program muscle memory. The flip side is that you could remote control their body... but let's not go there. So what would people do if it were real? Well, they would probably limit and regulate it since the drawbacks are very obvious. Even if you look at the basic aspects of this you can see some negative possibilities. Look at the Sword Art Online anime. Personally, I think they missed the boat by putting a bomb in the VR helmet. Do you really need a bomb when you have direct access to the brain?So what kind of events would you need to have a situation where the obvious drawbacks haven't been explored? Maybe a society where the advancement of technology has so far outstripped the explorations of its applications that ignorance was truly bliss? Okay, so I had to put in an alien invasion to kickstart the premise, but that was just one of the possibilities.
