"So then I tried awakening it inside my body while controlling the power inside me, I just wanted to try it, but as I did I had the feeling that I can change my weight as I like, unfortunately it seems that I still need to train more to have better control over it."
Dan's explanation made them all surprised then Katherine asked him:
"So how much change can you do to your body's weight?"
"I don't know, and we can't possibly try and see how heavy I can get right now as we are on top of the ship, but we can try seeing how light I can get." after he finished talking he closed his eyes and started concentrating once again.
It took him a while but he knew that if he did that for many other times he would be able to do it fast enough.
Then he opened his eyes and nodded to Robin who moved toward him and tried lifting him up, and he found that he was able to do it easily, Dan's weighted around eight or nine kg at most.
"I still can't control it well so I don't really know if this is the lightest that I can do." Dan answered after he Robin put him down.
He knew that if he was able to control it well he would be able to do even better, not just in the term of making himself lighter or heavier, if he could change the weight of a part of his body it would be even better and it would help him in whatever he would meet in their journey.
"So just change to an acceptable weight wear some acceptable clothe and let us go and have our breakfast, it's sunny today and if not for you I would have been outside already." Randy said while stretching.
After that Dan and the others left to the dining room, when they entered everyone there looked at Dan, they wondered why he didn't appear for breakfast and needed the other to go and bring him.
"Hello everyone, sorry to make you wait for so long." Dan apologized before setting around the table to have his breakfast with them.
After breakfast ended, Dan stood up and said:
"I see that all of you are quite happy today."
Hearing his words most of the people there smiled, of course they were happy, all of them became blood power users in one single night.
"Anyway I just wanted you to know that just work well and you will get more dragon blood and become stronger."
As Dan was talking something weird happened, everyone there started feeling a pressure emanating from him even though what he said was supposed to be inspiring and all, but instead as he stood in front of them they all started feeling something weird as if deep inside of them they had a strong fear of him, as if they knew that they won't stand a chance against him.

That happened even for Katherine and the others.
Feeling something wrong Dan looked around him and he saw that almost everyone there had pale faces and were sweating while looking at him, he then turned his head to his friends next to him and he saw that even thought they were in a better shape they still had pale faces.
"Hey, what's happening?" he whispered to Robin who was the closest next to him.
"I don't know you just started giving a terrifying pressure all of a sudden, why didn't you do anything, did it appear just like that." Robin asked, he felt that Dan was doing that on purpose at first but it seemed that he was wrong.
"I was just trying to change my weight while doing normal daily things so I get better at it." Dan said innocently.
Robin didn't know what to say as he looked at Dan helplessly.
Dan actually thought that if he tried controlling his body weight while living normally he will eventually become better at what he was doing, but as he was trying to change his weight he felt a weird reaction from the dragon power inside him, he didn't give it much thoughts and just decided to keep on trying to activate it, till he saw how the expressions of those around him changed.
Understanding that whatever that reaction was it wasn't good for everyone there he stopped it and said while coughing trying to hide his embarrassment and guilt:
"Cough... Anyway you all can go and do your things, and make sure to go to the surface after all we hadn't seen the sun for a while and a nice sun bathing will be good for everyone."
Then he Nero and Randy returned to where the dragon's corps was kept they had to deal with what remained of it.
They first started by removing the scales and the hard skin before pulling its fangs and claws, after that they opened his head and removed its brain and eyes, they left nothing, and fortunately they didn't find any other weird things like the Crystal and the eggs.
In the end they were only left with the muscles and bones of the dragon lying there on the floor of the ship.
"So what now, should we find a way to process this meat, I mean dry it or the likes" Nero asked while looking at the huge mass of meat standing on front of them.
"Dragons meat doesn't rote that easily, so we can just leave it like this, there's also Leonard, his power can make drying and processing the meat much easier, so actually we can go with any of those choices." Dan said after he thought about it for a while.
"Let's just leave it as it is for now, we will deal with it later if we need to." Randy said.
Actually he really didn't want to join them in dealing with the dragon's corps, as he would have preferred lying in the sun, but he got dragged by them as they said that they had already started and they had to finish.

Knowing that even if he tried to hide in order to not do his work, Nero would find him easily he accepted his fate and followed them.
"Ok, you two can go and do whatever you want I'll clean the place here and follow you." Dan said.
"Ok see you at lunch." Randy and Nero paid him farewell before leaving.
Dan then stated dealing with all the parts of the dragon that were next to him, the claws the fangs the scales the skin, all of that and more, he first separated them to different groups before putting each of them at one place, it took him a while to finish, but he finally did it by lunch time.

Area 07: In the South Africa:
The first herd of dragons finally made it there, there was at least one million dragons, and all of them were flying in that weird slow way, then they finally made it to a pig whole in the ground that was filled with water, in Dan's world that place would have been known as Kimberly's mine, the big hole.
The started circling around that area, but none of them dared to get close they all stayed at least five km away from it, then they all released one big strong roar, it was the same perfect group roar like the one dragons releases before the glGreat Migration, except that it lasted longer, it lasted more than ten minutes.
And when it finally stopped, they all stopped roaming and circling all around the sky, and just started hovering on their place while flapping there wings.
A while later a ripple appeared on the surface of the water on the big hole, before a big splash happened, and from under the water a gigantic creature appeared.
"ROAR!"
The creature released a heaven shaking roar as soon as it appeared.
After a while passed and the roar finally stopped it was apparent that the gigantic creature was actually a gigantic dragon.
It was huge, bigger than any other dragon there, it was at least one hundred meters high and four hundred meters long, it had two big horns on its head and as it was hovering there on top of the big hole it was releasing, such an astonishing pressure to the point where even the dragons there started shaking and swaying from one way to the other.
After a while passed the huge dragon released a weird sound, it wasn't a roar like the one that it released when it just appeared, instead it was more of a hiss.
When the other dragon heard that sound they all started acting in a weird way it was as if they were given an order that they weren't expecting and they couldn't accept it.
That weird behavior kept on happening for a while till the gigantic dragon released a growl that made all of them turn silent, before they started falling to the ground and staying quite, they were waiting, waiting for the arrival of the other dragon from all the different parts of the world, as those were the orders of their leader.
Actually that gigantic dragon was the solo male in the whole area 07, dragons only had one male dragon in each two hundred years, male dragons were bigger and way stronger than the normal female dragons.
The dragons why of fertilizing the eggs was different from normal animals, it's more like some type of fishes were females would lay the eggs and the male would just pass above them and release his sperms, fertilizing them all in one go.
And the fights before the great migration were for the sake of deciding who would lead the dragons in that area starting from that year's Great Migration till the start of next year's Great Migration.
Usually after the first group of dragons would make it to the big hole and after releasing their roar and the male appears, they would start lying eggs for the male to fertilize them, but that time it didn't happen, instead the male dragon released an order asking from them to wait for the other dragons to arrive, the dragons were simple minded and their brains wouldn't handle some complicated orders or anything like that, but they still understood the meaning of waiting.
Seeing that, the male dragon released another roar that made ripples appear on the surface of the lack before diving down again.
And just like that a day passed.

"Great God everything is ready." Susan said to Athena who was setting on her throne.
Next to Susan were Frederick and the leader of the Northern Legion, Morgan they all were ready for the coming fight.
"Ok we will leave right now." Athena said with her usual cold voice.
Then she stood up and started walking leaving her throne room with those three following behind her, they moved for a while till they finally found themselves in an open space outside the place.
On that open space there was a an army, there was more than five thousands soldiers, and they were split between two groups, and each one of those two groups was also split into six teams.
The people in one of the groups, the group on the right side was just standing there with their freezing aura and weapon, but they also seemed sadder and frustrated.
The other group was almost the same, they were also people who had freezing and dreadful aura except that their aura was colder and they seemed excited and motivated, and also behind each one of the six teams of the second group there was two gigantic white birds with blue eyes and beaks, they were also releasing a freezing air around them making everyone who got close to them tremble from the cold.
They were the mounts that the Northern Legion used.

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!

8 140Rebirth, but not quite.
A boy is born in a fantasy world with knowledge of modern earth, however he does not have personal memories of living or dying before. Good news is he was born in militaristic branch of the royal family and the variety of forms and uses of magic in this world are great fun, bad news is with status come expectations. Follow him as he makes his place in the world all the while escaping boredom with all his might. This is a story without a big baddie trying to destroy the world, without gods choosing heroes to give powers to and without systems that determine what you can and can't do. This is my first fiction and i'm open to suggestions. I plan on using a few cliches while putting my own spin on things, if i write something that feels too much like every other fictions, please say so.
