《Tourism Record of the Origin Dragon》Record 023: Titles
Advertisement
On the paved road connecting the town near the Origin forest and the Northern Kingdom's capital city, four uncanny individuals are running like flying. Their figures are blurred due to the speed but anyone can clearly see that they aren't a group of human because there is a huge brown blur along with two other green blurs.
"I've never ran this fast before." The only human in the group says in excitement. He has trained mainly in STR and VIT with a tiny bit in AGI and DEX.
In this world, Speed isn't that important despite its seemingly overwhelming effect. When someone wants to move fast, they can hire a Speedster who can cast Wind Walk to share Speed with them. This skill might sounds overpowered but its effect only works for moving and will dismiss when doing something else.
The brown streak running behind them is a huge wolf. He wants to say how pathetic this human is to not know about their world where Time seems to be slowed, but all he can do it barking incomprehensibly.
"Brother iss aw.. awes.. great!" One of the two green streaks - lizards, the older one, says. He can't pronounce 'awesome'.
Being a Ranger, he has also trained in DEX but neglected AGI for SPI. Because he was born with Green scales which represents Nature element, his parent had decided that he would be a Ranger and had him train in DEX. Luckily, before they wasted his Stat Limit on training AGI, they found out he had second aptitude to Earth when he accidentally cast Earth magic as he mimicked the tribe's druid. A Nature-Earth Ranger means a Trapper Ranger, thus they had him train in SPI, a mandatory stat for Trap Skill and Magic.. As for why his parents had to decide everything for him... his intelligence is lower than the average lizards.
"Don't compliment me if you can't speak properly." Despite being the younger brother of the other lizard, the Speed Ranger doesn't seem to have much respect to his older brother. After all, they are only one year apart.
"Aww... meany!" The older lizard speaks in a childish manner.
Since young age, they had trained DEX together but his brother had always had a few more points than him. Then when he trained SPI, his brother had helped him a lot, to the point the Speed Ranger gained a few useless points in SPI, wasting his Stat Limit. The older has always felt guilty about this but his lacking intelligence doesn't let him express his feeling in words well. Still, he always acts like he is the younger one as compensation for that.

"Yet you complain well." The older lizard sighs quietly.
Although they are running at wind-breaking speed, due to the effect of Wind Walk, they don't feel any pressure nor have their voice muffled by the raging wind. In fact, they are almost running on the wind itself.
"Aww..."
"You two have been quarreling every now and then. Do you even remember why are we heading toward the Northern Kingdom capital?" The bare-handed fighter runs to in between the two lizards.
"To resscue the Dragon of Ge..gene..." The older lizard tries to answer that rhetorical question.
"Dragon of Genesis." The younger continues his brother's words in annoyed tone.
"I still don't get why your kingdom calls him like that. Doesn't that word also mean Origin?"
"The reason why we call him Genesis instead of Origin comes with a history. If you visit one of the kingdoms in our Alliance, you can find the reason in any big Library."
"I don't think I can live that long... After we rescue him, I will be his Exp..."
"You are despicable. That honor is only reversed as the highest reward, yet you begged for it." Despite his accent, the lizard's mocking tone is clearly delivered.
"I didn't. It was offered to me!" The human frustratingly explains but his word is ignored. The wolf snickers quietly at the thought that the dragon would let it eat the human.
"Gene.. Gene..." The older lizard is still trying to pronounce the words without success. "Why hiss name.. hard to.. ssay?" After awhile, he voices his complaint.
"Brother, stop trying." His younger brother bluntly says.
"It's not even his name.. Speaking of which, I don't think anyone knows his name."
The scenery flies like an arrow as they run in silence again, thinking about his Name.
I'm back at the Endlessly white space after "visiting" the knight I killed in the Endless black space. Although it seemed to be impossible to communicate with the soul I absorbed, the former knight's soul didn't make any trouble to me. Also, the monsters' souls didn't show up on my scale anymore. I shuddered at the thought of them being inside me...
Now I'm staring at that woman. The so called Goddess of Life. I can't chase her out of my mind in direct way so I try indirect way: Staring at her to make her feel uncomfortable. But that doesn't seem to work, she keeps rambling on and on about this and that. She doesn't have anyone to talk to, does she?

Because she purposely talks to my mind and from inside my mind, I can't ignore what she said and ended up remember almost everything.. "Stop filling my mind with these useless information!" I screamed (roar) that at her a few times but she ignored me. That's so unfair. Though our conversation this time went well unlike the last.
"You have so many names. None of which you consider your real name, although there are some you keep reusing." She mentioned a sensitive topic (to me) so I ignored it. "We of this world don't know how to call you. The human call you Origin Dragon. Some races call you Genesis Dragon. The Demonic and Spiritual creatures who live on Mana call you Mana Dragon..."
Because I keep ignoring that topic, she switch to complimented me for the vastness of my memory. She tried to read my memories in the pass dozen of thousands years but it was endless. Her life is a grain of sand in comparison to mine, an endless ocean.
I don't even remember how long my consciousness has been existing, traveling from dimension to dimension. I have to archive my memories in the form of Singularity in an endless 4-dimension space, giving each Life I had a coordinate. If I hear a "coordinate", I will recall it, though I'd never do it myself. To me, the past should stay in the past...
"You secretly gave the coordinate to those you loved, like..."
"Don't remind me of my past's incarnation!" I interrupt her.
Despite saying that, I recall my most recent life. A wife who died early. A son who had a happy family. A grandson who visited me every now and then, who loved watching me and his dad playing tennis. I promised to teach him playing tennis when he get older although I knew I'd die very soon. He wanted to be the best tennis player in that world... 12000 years... They are all gone just like any other family I had. It's the price of immortality.
"It's different now." The deity responds to my thought. "Your descendant in this world... As long as you stay, they would all be immortal."
"Nothing lasts forever." I reply bluntly. "I will leave, someday."
"I doubt that. With your power to travel between world sealed, you can't leave this world even if you die. So, don't even think about it."
"I will kill myself, just watch!" I say and try to raise my arm, planning to pretend to bite it. However my arms feel so heavy as if something is pressing on them.
"Oh no you don't." The high-priest says.
She did it, again. Snapping myself out of my dream just as I'm about to say something.. dangerous.
I'm laying on my belly, my head is using my arms as a pillow. I vaguely remember when the priest voodoo'd me to sleep.. How long has it been? They had removed the cuff on my wrist.
Open my eyes then lift my head up, I notice that I'm still in the cage. It's night and the weather's temperature is relaxing. Looking forward, I see a huge lake with various boats from small to big is docking around a bridge-bay.
The blue moon and the red moon are both at zenith, reflecting beautifully on the lake's surface. I am amazed at how the two moons seem to phase through each other like ghosts. Like a Venn's diagram, I can see two complete circles, one red, one blue, and a purplish area where the circles intersect. However the two moons don't seem to be completely overlap each other tonight. I guess that when they do, it would be something similar to an Eclipse.
The deities did a good job making those Celestial bodies, Water and Reflecting physics. I didn't create Electromagnetic field, so how does Light work?
"Beautiful, isn't it?" The high priest who is standing in between two of the cage's bars speak. I can only vaguely see his tiny silhouette but I'm sure he is looking toward the lake. "If you leave, this lake along with those beautiful moons will disappear."
Ah, now he is trying to convince me to stay using the nature's beauty?
"Not my fault."
"I'm not convincing you. Don't try anything funny though, or we would have to lock you to the point of immobile." He suddenly changes into the more scary tone.
I ignore him to not ruin my mood and also this beautiful atmosphere. I ignored a lot of things today, didn't I?
"Speaking of which... What should I call you?" The high priest suddenly asks.
Ah, not again!

A Broken World [Rewrite]
In a world of floating islands of stone in the sky, where rivers flow through the air and defy gravity from one island to another, and ancient ruins can be found containing wonders beyond what can be produced by the lands current inhabitants- a millenia long war rages. In the distant past, beyond recorded history, when the crown of humanity's glory, the city of Uri, had stood whole against the enroaching demon swarms- even as hope seemed lost, a band of heroes, against all odds, managed to steal powerful magical knowledge from the demons. With the demon's forbidden knowledge, in the heart of Uri a new ritual was made. Called, "The Millenial Summoning," the ritual had the power to call a being from another world that would have the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods to the world. With the blessings and power of the new priests, the unstoppable demon hordes were finally halted. A thousand years later, the ritual was used again and "The First Sorceress" was brought to the world. She brought the knowledge of advanced magics, and techniques to find and refine magical talent. With the magic power now added to the battlefield, the stalemate was broken. And for the first time, the demons were pushed back. Another thousand years later, and all of humanites hope for a final victory were dashed. Traitors slew the ritual's participants and took their places, and humanity quaked as The Demon King stepped into the world. His name, his nature, where he came from none of these are known, but what is known is his overwhelming power and his brilliant strategic leadership of the formerly formless hordes. Still, despite their position being even more dire than it has ever been since history has been recorded, humanity held on for another thousand years. Aided, thankfully, by The Demon King not taking the field after the first few years and battles. Now, the ritual is being cast again and a new hero is being summoned. In our world, after nearly three decades of study and hard work, Lucas Jaeger is making his dreams come true. With a double doctorate in both genetics and microbiology, as well as an associates degree in accounting, he has finally, after nearly driving himself mad from stress and sick from overwork, been able to put to together a presentation and ask for a business loan. His long time dream, earned by his own blood and sweat, to start his own commercial genetic company is finally coming to fruition. Lucas's car never left the banks parking lot and Lucas was never seen again in our world. This is a rewrite of "A Broken World." It is basically the same story, just a thousand times better and with decent length chapters!
