Chapter 1: The Slime is a lie!
Prologue.
Sunny day outside, the perfect moment to take a nice cold bath, I wonder if I can find a cave with a lake outside, I really can't be bothered to make a cave, makes me feel drowsy every time I use 'Destruction breath'. let's venture for a while and see if I can find a cool basin for this hot body.
Hmm, that lake looks so cool, did someone dump a bunch of slimes in there? it's purple... oh god I can just imagine, it must feel amazing taking a bath and those things massaging me while squirming around!
no one to the left, no one to right...
into the pool with a sploosh and-
"What the FU-"
okay, that was not a lake filled with slimes, where the hell am I?
about now I'll just assume that was a portal, in my defense, though, who would put a portal in the middle of nowhere, now I know it's just as weird to think someone would fill a lake with slimes but-
New player detected, please state your name
Who!?
Confirm name 'Who'? (Yes/No)
No!
Please choose a name
...Doraig.
...
Alright, I think I get the gist of what is going on, so it's like this, I jumped into a portal, got sent into another dimension and in here there's this thing called System.
Okay, Good job me, now calm down...
Calm down...
Like hell I can calm down!
it's not like I was THAT attached to my world but c'mon, couldn't you at least ask for my opinion before flinging me across? I will sue you man, girl or whatever gender you are!
Ugh, fine... for now, let's confirm the status thingy Mr system told me about in the 'tutorial'.
'Personal Status'

Didn't Mr system say the average for a human was 10 across the stats? am I not like... really weak for a Mighty dragon!?
it has to be because of the dimensional travel, not because I was weak before, yes, that is it and I won't let you say otherwise! you ask why I can only glide? uh... dimensional travel of course!
So looking at the minimap I should be at the [Starting village 'Lizer'] but am I not in the middle of a big crater?
oh, there's a red dot on the minimap now, senior System said that was a hostile entity, those things give experience points I heard.
Hmm.
isn't that just a rabbit? no way that's the 'hostile entity' right!?
Chomp
ME ALMIGHTY WHAT THE HELL THAT HURT!
HP received damage, HP 40 -> 28
Destruction Breath!
huh?
Chomp
HP received damage, HP 28 -> 16
Crap, fine... Minor Destruction Breath
Experience Received
Ugh, what the hell did they feed these rabbits with man, isn't -ahem- wasn't this zone next to the starting village?
Ah well, I guess that's a glass cannon for you, I'll eat this rabbit for now while I check my Status.

Hmm, I guess this rabbit was an actual trash mob huh.
fine, I'm weak.
So I've been at this rabbit hunting for a while now, silly as it looks for a 3-meter tall dragon to murder critters I don't feel confident enough to move too far away from the starting zone lest I get killed by a deer or a baby vixen, now THAT would be damn silly.
Leveling up gives me 5 stat points and 3 skill points I see.
Int improves my mana points, its recovery and to some extent, my learning speed so it seems pretty useful... when you think about how I can cast only 2 Breath attacks before running out of steam it might be good to get that now in case I need to fight something more durable that a random rabbit.
INT stat increased: 8 -> 12
for skill points I think I should max out [Glide] so it can evolve into [Fly], a dragon that can't fly is just silly, right?
Shutupman.
Glide skill point increased: 80/99 -> 83/99
I won't raise the breathing attack because it raises automatically as I use it, and I use it way more often that I glide as well.
After killing enough snowy-deaths to get to level 2 it is now at 16/99, pretty fast if you ask me, those snowy-deaths couldn't stand a chance against my mighty roar.
Yes, I will send all those snowy-deaths on their way to the underworld, Mua-ha-ha-ha.
Fine, let's see if I can find something else to shoot at...

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.
