《The Runestones》The Traitor's Verdict
Advertisement
In the magistrate court, there was a man on his knees with his hands and legs cuffed and surrounded by other people and guards in the court.
"Yes! I was the one who did it. I am the one who stole the fourth piece and traded it to the dark race. Now my dear Revna will come back and lead this country back to its former glory which it has lost now because of you incompetent leaders. HAHAHAHAHAHA!" said Jezebel laughing like a maniac
Looking down at this manic was the magistrate. Their eyes had a disgusted look in them while staring at the traitor who thinks he was some kind of a hero doing such a thing. Not realizing just how foolish his actions were.
"Fool! You don't realize the fact that what you did was a grave crime. You gave away the power which had helped us remain at peace. It was the sole reason we were in a treaty among the six races. But now we grew weaker because of your selfish greed you insolent bastard."
"Your wife Revna, the commander of the second battalion and the strongest user of shadow died fighting against those dark forces. You foolishly fell in the trap of the dark race and they invaded us. We were barely able to push them back. They have "THE FOURTH AND THE SIXTH PIECE" now because of you."
"The only reason why we are still alive is because of the help from dwarf machinery and the artifact bestowed upon us by the elder of elves," he said with his voice getting louder and louder due to sheer anger and his hate towards Jezebel.
"We lost thousands of people because of you. You say Revna will come back and lead the country? But this country will cease to exist if we continue to do such foolish deeds. What will she lead even if she comes back? You made a deal with the dark race who are known to be deceptive and caused the death of our dear comrades and now I'll sentence you to life imprisonment and torture in the deepest prisons of the dwarves."

He stopped for a moment to look at the man but Jezebel showed no signs of regret or grief, rather he looked prideful. Still being deluded by his own thoughts and the mere sight of it was enough for him to slit his throat then and there.
"Guards!! Take him away," he said. "Also Jezebel, before you go, I ensure your son Freyre will live a normal life. Don't think I'm being nice to a piece of shit like you but it's what I promised Revna, you late wife."
His words, in the end, were filled with pity and warmth for a second but he reverted back to the cold look he had on his face, and Jezebel got dragged out of the court...

Re: Dragonize
After an unexpected turn of events, Drew must now survive in a world full of challenges with life-or-death stakes. Gone are the days when the biggest problems to face were awkward small-talk at physics department luncheons or mountains of lab work; this former physicist is now adrift in an unfamiliar land without any equipment. Now, Drew's only tool (if it can be called that) is a System, which provides constant reminders of all of the things that are still out of reach for a low-level being who's just arrived in a new world. Luckily, Drew has one powerful asset when taking on the challenges of this new world: surviving violent conflict is a lot easier when you have the power of a dragon at your disposal. Still, Drew has always considered violence a last resort. Why turn to fists (or claws) when a bit of quiet consideration might expose a better path forward? Maybe a life of quiet contemplation is still within reach for this former academic researcher. ...Or maybe not. It probably won't be a life of bloodless pacifism. Additional information for those who wish to calibrate their expectations (I'm adding this based on a few comments I received from readers who feel that the story is not what they expected from a dragon-themed story): Re: Dragonize is not a power fantasy -- or at least, it's not intended to be one. Re: Dragonize is a progression fantasy starting with a protagonist who must start at the bottom (or close to it), and work gradually upwards, making incremental progress with plenty of setbacks along the way. The protagonist, as someone coming from the world of academia, tends to be cautious, methodical, and contemplative. As such, expect this story to contain more than a few digressions as the main character takes the time to pontificate on a variety of topics ranging from Newtonian physics and horology to the nature of existence and the ethical dilemmas associated with being an obligate carnivore.

(DEMO) Colorless vol.1- Phantamoire Enigmata
This is a demo volume consisting only seven chapters. The sole reason of this publication is to show the world a glimpse of the project. Therefore, the final quality of the product will be lot more refined and polished. This demo might get deleted from RoyalRoad after the actual publication. Synopsis: "Knights wearing their shining armor serving righteous justice riding their glorious horses." We all have heard that story- Heroes who do the right in the purest way without any tampering. But, is it really that easy? Is the world and it's heroes really that pure? After all... fairytale is just a lie. I might be the first author in the world who despises writing. I haven't read any story books or novel in my entire life but children's story book (not even ten of them). So, why do I write? Simple answer- the story. Inexperienced I may be but I believe my project and it's quality. The actual story will be posted somewhere in 2019. The story will be devided into 7/8 volumes and 90 (approx.) chapters. I have been working on this project for 1 year now. It took me 5 months to finalize the concept and plot, 7 months for the story and it's already been 6 months in writing along with 2 times of total revamp.
