《Throne of World》Ch 5 | First Mission
Advertisement
At 9 am, Alexander was at the school administration office. He came here today to apply for off-dormitory living, so that he can live outside his dorm room.
While he was exiting the office, he suddenly heard another system prompt notification.
[ Today's Mission: Since your physical body isn't fit and will require some time to adjust for strengthening. Start filling your brain with data so as to defeat everyone and become an overlord. ]
[ Mission Description: Read at least 5 books before 9 am tomorrow on the topic of human medicine. Time allotted 24 hours. ]
Alexander heard the prompt and nodded. This system is quite reasonable, since I can't strengthen my body, let's just strengthen my brain.
But before that, I need to find a place to live… I'll just use the forest cottage for the time being and after I earn some money, I'll just take a flat in the city.
Yeah! That will be ok!
After Alexander thought and made his decision, he first went to his dorm and collected everything that belonged to him.
There wasn't much for him to take along. He only owns a high-end laptop that was a gift from a friend and a couple of t-shirts that he wears during college. He didn't own any book or any other study materials, since he rarely studies.
After packing his luggage, Alexander went towards the forest cottage. This world is relatively still young and green as there are quite a few forests everywhere. Even in a city such as New Delhi that was heavily polluted in my world, but here, there is a forest and that forest covers quite a large area.
Upon reaching the area, Alexander found the registration office and paid the rent, that was quite cheap. He was assigned cottage number 2.

He settled everything in the cottage and then directly rushed to the library to read there and borrow a few books.
The library was still like dormitory and cafeteria but there were a few bookworm students that were still in the library.
Since it was still a holiday, it was quite easy to find a place to sit. Alexander directly chose the corner most seat and went to shelves to collect a few books that he intends to read in these 24 hours.
He directly grabbed some basic medical books like :
Basics of Human Anatomy, Human Nervous System, Simple Drugs and Their Uses, Human Body Functions, etc.
In total, he grabbed about 7 books and went to his desired seat.
When he reached the seat he found that the seat opposite to his was also occupied by someone and that person went to find books too. He didn't think much and sat down to engulf the knowledge in these books.
Hah! Whoever is in the library at this time of the year, it's not like they'll talk to me!
When he opened the book of Human Body Function and medicine, he found that there were a lot of things that he can't understand at all. That's because he does not have any background in biology.
However, his determination and scholar's brain slowly started to assimilate all the information inside the book page by page…
1 page
4 page
9 page
21 page
….
In about 2 hours he completely finished his first books which didn't have many pages.
This body of mine isn't suited to do anything! His did the previous owner live till that day!
Earlier he used to study for continuously 8-9 hours straight without a bit of fatigue, but just after 2 hours, he's feeling sleepy.
He lifted his head and found that the seat in front of him was occupied by a beautiful girl!

Hah! I didn't think that a beautiful girl will be sitting right across me! Let's leave it for now and start reading.
His introvert and cold nature acted yet again and he picked up the book on basic human anatomy to read and dipped his head.
On the other hand, the beautiful girl saw everything and her mouth twitched a bit but in a fraction of a second she returned to her previous state and started reading the basic chemistry book that she has been holding for about 2 hours and still not reached the midpoint of the book.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!

I was Reborn as the Villainess but I will become a Great Sage
Nova Allandis, formerly known as Suna Lee, remembers her previous life and realizes her current life is as the villainess in a fantasy novel she once read. However, as Suna, she was the laziest person with no motivation, possibly attributed to the fact that she didn't go into a major that was her strongest suit. Now that she has a high affinity towards magic and wishes to go into it, will she be able to change her lazy self for the better, or will she go back to being lazy like the villainess in the novel? Can she become a Great Sage and live life happily this time? Note: This is not a "revenge of the villainess" novel, but rather a "rise to fame" novel. A/N: This is just an experimental novel and criticisms are much appreciated, but I'm extremely defensive of my own work and characters. If you are here to put down a novel, please remember, first of all, you are not paying anything to read this, and second of all, authors are humans too.
