《Abyssal Dragon: Awakening》Chapter 2: Azrael Bel’Ore
Advertisement
Location: Dhaka Empire, Deomos Continent: Interitum City
Seated upon a throne, surrounded by a river of blood, sat Azrael Bel’Ore. He was a demon king with 4 protruding horns from his head, two at the sides of his head and two from the front forming a crown upon his head. A flat slate was his face except for a mouth filled with massive tusks. His huge body put him at a whopping 15 feet, from head to toes. The wings folded on his back were the same ash grey and blood red as the rest of his body.
‘The sacrifice required to bring that insignificant ant was massive, half my Blood sect followers, as well as a black dragon on the eve of awakening, took centuries to prepare but finally, my revenge is within sight.’ His tusk-filled mouth curved into a terrifying grin that reached the horns on the side of his head.
“My liege, during our ritual summoning there was an interference, it could be nothing as it lasted but a moment." From the shadows a voice addressed the being on the throne not daring to get any closer as that being’s mere breath would incinerate them.
“Fret not, for I can feel our summon within this plane, nothing will be able to foil my plan for it is already in motion,” the voice whispered but the power within it caused the castle to shake trying to contain its might. “Do you have him under surveillance yet?”
The messenger breathed a sigh after his response and replied, “Yes my liege, as you predicted it caused a disturbance within the forest and it won’t escape the Elves perception.”
“Good, that damned Gold Dragon will get what’s coming to him. ‘An eye for an eye’, as those damned humans say.” Azrael said rising to his feet before disappearing into fire and ash.

The shadows quaked and the messenger stepped out, a succubus with curved horns protruding from her red-streaked black hair, if you didn’t look upon the goat legs and the pointed tale behind her she’d easily be one of the most beautiful women you’d ever seen.
‘Things are getting quite interesting, our lords’ obsession with that damnable dragon has cost us centuries of progress,’ she curved her lips in displeasure as the thought of all the sacrifices arose. ‘Hopefully, he’ll go back to being the King after this ordeal is done, it won’t take too long to spread the news of a black dragon sighting.’
The succubus then stepped back into the shadows before being completely absorbed.

An Unwilling Monster
In the city of Kholakel, the highlight of the year for the upper classes is the annual monster pacification of the misty woods. Ostensibly it's a culling of the monster population to prevent them encroaching on urban areas, but it's an open secret that it's actually treated as more of a blood sport, the participants competing to score the most kills. After all, why else would the politicians and elites of the city bother to attend personally? Given the intense competition and high-tech weapons and gear in use, one might wonder how the forest has not yet been completely depopulated. As this year's culling approaches, a group of unfortunate children are about to discover the answer first-hand, but thanks to an unexpected twist of fate, one of them will score the chance to play the role of the hunter instead of the prey. This was an attempt at writing something darker than my usual fare. The story I actually ended up with isn't as mean to the MC as I'd originally planned out, to the point that I'm not sure the story deserves the horror/grimdark tags anymore, but this is still an unfair world with unambiguously evil antagonists. Chapters are short to start with, but get longer once the first act is over.

Rise of a Scarlet Devil (Regular+Draft Version)
A young girl slain during a war was brought back to life by some unknown force millennia later. She could only remember a vague face within her memories, uncertain as to who it was but there was one thing she did know. She needed to kill that person. But she was too weak, she needed to hide, to grow. She needed to flee from the battlefield her enemy reigns over. And to do so, she needed to run eastward, towards Helios, a safe haven for those who have lost their homes in the war. And where she would grow to become the strongest Hunter under her own strength. What was it that brought her back? Only time will tell. #Author's Note The novel is organized like this:Regular Chapters (Act, Title, Part (ranging from 1 to 9))Draft Chapter DisclaimerDraft Chapters (Entry Number, Perspective, Title, Part (ranging from i to ii)) Regular chapters are edited chapters that reflect the story aspect more while Draft chapters reflect plot progression more. An occasional interactive chapter will appear in the drafts but nowhere in the regular chapters. Expect changes when reading between Regular and Draft chapters as some events in the story may change in length or entirely removed/changed. Only read the draft version if you want a future view and/or opinion on the story and design elements. The main character is a human from a fantasy world reincarnated as a devil. The story possesses Reincarnators, Transmigrators, and Summoned Persons. though mainly focusing on Magic and other abilities such as Aura and Skills. Wizards (those who prepare arcane spells) and Mages (those who use elemental magic) are separate but seen as the same by common inhabitants of the world but clearly defined as different by more influential persons and by the circles themselves. The main character WILL not be a Mage or Wizard but will incorporate mana into her attacks to aid her as does any high-rank combatants. The system in the novel quantifies a person's abilities and keeps record of them but does not define natural ability, occasionally granting special abilities as skills to a person once prerequisites are met. There is no leveling system and no occupational systems in the novel featuring only a stat based and skill based system. Also, this novel is my first and will most likely be trash.
