《Battlefront》25-meet the dragons
Advertisement
A huge city has always existed in the centre of the sun-moon island. From here the Vali putras ruled the fire islands for a very long time. Now it is the strong base of dragons. Before the invasion there were two striking structures in this city. First one is the palace of the sun-moon island. The entire construction looked as though someone carved out the entire palace from one huge mountain! It had towering pagodas jutting out from four sides as though they are trying to reach the sky. The Center building was almost conical spiral pointing to the sky. In the past whenever there was sun or full moon in the sky the palace would shine on many spots. If anyone observed those spots closely, they realize that they are precious stones embedded in the structure! Stones that are as large as basketballs! But now all those precious gems have been removed. One of the pagodas is completely destroyed. At the top of the building is the room that was used by the previous king of stone gorillas. This room has an area of almost 100 square meters. In the middle of the room, there is a humanoid creature sleeping in a high bed. This is the first son of the dragon that attacked the island, he is named James. As he was blissful sleeping he got a mental feedback from one of his talismans. James has rudimentary understanding on how to make talismans. So when his mother sent his siblings to different corners of the island, he gave some of them talismans for communication purpose. He checked his bag to find that it was from formation twins. When James saw this he sighed. Though Percy and Dan are youngest of all his siblings they have the highest growth potential. Helen and Jeremy both hated the twins. Before Percy and Dan were born mother doted on them a lot. They were the prodigies. But after the twins were born they became the eye of the apple for their mother. When twins gained the title formation novices, even their grandfather who rarely visited them personally came and gifted the twins with high mana preserving globes. Apart from James’s sword this mana globes are the most precious treasures his siblings have ever got. Helen and Jeremy always tried to steal them from the twins. During the turmoil fifty years back, they tried to take advantage of it and tried to attack the twins to steal the high mana preserving globes. Even when mother sent them to different places of the island, Helen and Jeremy created their base very near to the Percy and Dan. To keep the twins safe, James had to even give up his personal guards, fire mages.

He dressed himself and started descending. After the raid of dragons almost all the rooms are stripped of their valuable items. In some of the rooms even the tiles were pulled off! The only room that is still decorated is James’s room. As he was about to go out of the palace, he called for his guards. Along with his guards he came out of the palace.
After crossing the palace for few meters there is a huge dome. Before the war there was no dome here. There was a huge dais, on which the portal existed. Now to facilitate James’s mother recuperation she always has to stay near the portal. When his mother fought stone gorilla’s previous king, she almost killed him. In attempt to let his people escape stone gorilla’s king used a technique they never seen before. He stabbed his spear into James’s mother and then an unbelievable gravitational field was generated with that stab as origin point! All the surrounding dragons flew apart including James’s mother, Lamath. By the time dragons came to their senses all surviving stone gorillas escaped. But what James saw next truly shocked him. His mother, Lamath was literally falling apart! It’s like her body was being eroded and pulled apart from inside. They used every precious medication they have on her. None worked! Finally twins laid down a formation using the portal as core to create the gravity stabilizing spell. From then Lamath has been inside that formation which is near the portal. After more than 50 years slowly her body stabilized.
They tried to capture the escaped stone gorilla’s king’s son. If they can refine the body of stone gorilla’s king’s son into a medicine, it can definitely accelerate the Lamath’s healing process. But every time they tried to kidnap vajra mastika, Jambu thwarted their plans! Now vajra mastika grew up and it seems they also have another strong fire shaman. They cannot leave this realm till Lamath can recuperate. She is the only one who can operate the treasure which can open the rifts. As for the portal it seems it is missing a key. It has been more than hundred years since they returned back to nether realm. Unlike all other dragons James never obsessed about wealth. But it seems obsession is a very intrinsic nature of dragons, instead of wealth James obsessed about swordplay. After lot of effort he got accepted into the sword school of E.S. Just before joining, his mother opened a rift and ordered him to follow her. But now he got stuck here. As he was thinking this he semi modified his body to produce wings and started flying towards twin’s village along with the guards.

After 1 and half day journey at top speed James reached the twins’ village. First he was almost confused, because in the place of village there is nothing! There was no sign of twins, he could not sense the fire mages, no dragons to be found and in-fact there are on buildings either. The only thing he found was large leathery bag. First he did not realize what that bag was. But as he closely observed, he sharply inhaled! Even some of his guards realized what that bag is and are thoroughly shocked. The bag is made up of humanoid dragon skin. Hesitantly James opened the bag to see its contents. What he saw next confused him. It was filled with ashes! James had a bad premonition and started going towards the other villages. He next went to Helen and Jeremy’s village. This place is covered in ashes and sooth. James immediately pulled a stone talisman and crushed it. It was to order the other villages to immediately return to the city. He also crushed another talisman. Immediately after few seconds a huge red flare was blasted from the city into the air. Even from the very end of the island anyone can see it. James and his guards started flying towards next series of villages. For next 12 villages it was same results. Scorched earth, no survivors and only ashes/sooth! James started panicking not understanding what is happening! Jambu is may be strong, but not this powerful to wipe out village after village without any survivors. After 2 days of non-stop searching he finally found a intact village. But as he got closer he got this uneasy feeling that someone is observing him. As he got closer to the village, this suspicion became strong enough and was about to pull his sabre out. Just like that the feeling disappeared. James looked around; he used every soul tracer technique he knew. But all he found were the village residents and his guards. No trace of any foreign species. After staring around few times, he and his guards flew to the village.

This Strange New Life
Seems like I got a new chance. Better not fuck it up then, since I really want to see what it feels to have a family. Power is pretty lame alone. Best used to build things and protect people. Did a lot of building 'till now, lots of research stuff and all. Now, let's protect the people that I love and that loves me back. An enjoyable life with my loved ones. Whatever the cost. Mufufu~~ What can I do, my siblings are so cute~~ maybe I'll try having children at some point~? --- PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION ^p^ ---- This is an extremely slow reincarnation story, with heavy usage of dialogues and diminutive descriptions. Chapter are posted whenever I feel like it, because I won't burn myself down like I did before. Chapters will often be around 2k words. The first arc, Life in Valince, will be at least 50 chapters deep, and the main character won't get to her 1 year anniversary over the span of this arc. As I said, it's a slow, character interaction, dialogue-heavy story. Lots of feeling, slice-of-life etc, with some dramatic events that shape the rest of the story ^^ AND PLEASE, STOP PESTERING ME ABOUT JAPANESE. this story contain a very limited amount of japanese words, used in context for a reason and that are part of the mystery of the worldAnd the bad guys use german (not because nazi buit because german is badass)And there’s also french. Please be open-minded. I’m not a delusional weeb and this kind of thing, and it would be very appreciated if people could be more polite.If you don't like it, I don't force you to read it, but a lot of people seems to like this novel nonetheless, so maybe you should give it a shot. ---- Lux's here! Yeah I know I should work on ToL and ToF but I had another idea, then another one. So here it is. Story talk about a war vet that reincarnate and can finally know what it is to have a family. I like engineering, creating things and all, so I'll try putting production scene in this. Like all my stories, it's about love, be it with family, friends or lovers. I like my coffee with so much love sugar that half the planet would get diabetes. You're warned. Also, the MC is quite OP, but I keep a progression curb and she still has things to learn, which she will eagerly do. After all, curiosity is one of her main drives, with a thirst for love and utter hate of loss, be it losing a battle or losing someone she loves. Ha, nearly forgot. CONTENT WARNINGS AREN'T FOR SHOW. Sex, of course. I'll try to explore sexuality as a male, a female, and some other PoV that can't be categorised like that, not exactly. Also, beware the yuri/yaoi. I don't limit myself to straight couples. Gore. A lot. Blood everywhere, guts spilling and all. I don't do censure. The Mc cut a wolf in half? you get the details of what is inside it. Traumatising content. I dunno. No NTR, no heartbreaking drama. However, some of you may dislike the way I handle bodies and flesh. Got some feedback about body horror on my previous works, but everyone as a different border separating transhumanism and body horror. Mine is pretty high. How high? Go read The Other Labyrthin to have an example. To put it in simple term, I've no problem at all to describe alien bodies, change in human bodies, interactions between differents strange species etc. Expect a lot of tentacle, bio-incubator, spawning pool à la zerg. Profanity. Well, I think you fucking got it in the very first sentence of this synopsis, ain't right? ---- THIS IS A WIP (work in progress)! Earlier chapters may get retconned or completely changed, structure of the story isn't set in stone, all the usual stuff. ANY HELP IS WELCOMED. Want to throw me your idea? Shoot! Spotted an error in the text? Comment! Seen a plothole bigger than the impact zone of a nuke? I'll gladly hear you out and try to fix the problem (somehow ;-;) --- Cover: John Martin - The Plains of Heaven (c. 1851) ---- Official Editor: TheZouave (starting from ch25 onward) ---- List of thanks: Necrotyr (English) Asviloka (English) Damokles (Review) David Talon (Review) JHA (English) Helbom (English) Slee202 (Common Coherence) NEEDS_MORE_DAKA (First First) Srayan (English) Koooomakimi (Dialogue Flow) Emagstar (English) Apocryphal (Review) ToasterForker (Review) Ellen Taylor (Review) Zak (English) PrimalShadow (English) Elliot Flanders (HUGE THANKS for the re-write of the poem "Tale of Ashen Night" Go check their work, it's good ^^) Lance Wheeler (Huge thanks for the English edit on each chapter ^^) (If you think you should be here because you helped me, feel free to ask, pointing the reason, like the comment you gave that could have helped me ^^)

The Limits of Limitless
Author's Note: So, new author here, nice to meet you from this lovely one sided conversation lol. I was so tired of waiting for the perfect story for me so I decided to write a few of my own. These are basically just to make me happy, but if you enjoy them too that would make me happy as well lol. ______________________________________________________________________________________ So once upon a time, there was a convienent, and slightly cliche, plot device used by a somewhat lazy author.... Which in turn, created an easily made story of how a lucky high schooler posing as a hardcore gamer dies only to resurrect in a fantasy reality, meeting beautiful women, powerful dragons and ancient beings, an assortment of insanely escentric fellows, and a certain over powered ring. Journey with them as they explore the wilderness of twisted imagination. Or for you old timey folk who like their synopsis a bit tame, here you go: Jason, a senor in highschool, is slowly failing school due to not giving a fuck. Like many people now in the year 3056, he is obsessed with the wonderful invention most lovingly called, 'True Virtual Realities'. now by using his obsession with his favorite Virtual Reality game called 'Reality Controlled', which is the first and so called best Virtual Reality ever made. it was basically the all around escape humanity wished for, and he with heaven defying luck came across one of the three cheat items the game developers left for themselves: The Limitless Ring. The ring was a support type item and had the ability to grant wishes, store worlds, clone items, grant skills and easily learn abilities. But those are just a few of the things it could do. Using the ring he successfully became the "best player" and had a herd of fans following him everywhere. It was a dream come true. Until, he was killed from a power surge that fried his brain which was hooked up to the Nerve Capsule, an unsafe prototype of the Dive gear that he bought do to low funds. The end. Or so you would think.... ______________________________________________________________________________________ Author's Note: I was, to be honest, wanting to do a collab, because to me it is sooooooo incredibly boring to write by yourself since you always know what happens next, however no one enjoys a bit of friendly cooperation *sigh* so I'm forced to journey these roads alone.... 'Tis but a sad fate tha' 'is here young'un has t' bear. The cover isn't mine, all rights and stuff goes to its artist and such.

A Man and His Greatsword
Michael Adkins is a unique 28-year-old man. Born with above average strength and emerald green eyes, he always wanted to live in a fantasy world.

Michael always dreamed of going on an adventure in a fantasy world. On a whim, Michael is summoned by the god of Alorah, one of the fantasy worlds he had always read about! Alorah's God, Eden, gives Michael a choice of three bonuses and a custom class to take with him into Alorah. This is the start of Michael's fantasy adventures. P.S. This is my first novel, I'm writing this since there were little novels I've found with a main character that wields a greatsword. Don't expect anything good. There will be a lot of mistakes, so please help me with that! P.P.S The later chapters will (hopefully) be much less cringy than the early ones. Please give it a shot!
