“Mom I need to do something so I want you to take some distance from here”
Finding a new way out in this predicament, Hein immediately moved.
He first let his mother, Lina, Hell and Ashley take some distance from him.
Although bewildered, Leviana reluctantly obeyed as she guessed his son might have found some solution.
Hein held Aqua in his hands and ordered it to construct a water barrier around him.
He also ordered it that no matter what happens, no one is allowed to come inside the water barrier it made.
After giving the order, Hein let Aqua go towards the others.
This situation naturally gathered everyone’s attention.
Even Hein’s father, Draig Vilestone, the king, the queen and their daughters came to know the cause of the commotion, however they couldn’t see anything behind the water wall made by Aqua so they can only ask Leviana.
Inside the water barrier, Hein stood perfectly as he prepared himself.
“Arche….. do it now!” He shouted.
Answer: Master, I wish you the best of luck!
After Hein heard those words, he suddenly felt a rush of dark and burning aura spreading throughout his whole body.
It’s as if inside his body, a very hot flame suddenly lit. It was getting hotter and hotter that his body began to sweat profusely like crazy.
Dokun!
Then suddenly it stopped.
Badamp!
Something throbbed inside him.
Badamp! Badamp!
The throbbing sensation was getting louder as if there were countless drums being played beside his ears….
Torn!
“Guh… Ah… Ugaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!”
Hein’s entire body began to convulse uncontrollably!
A difficult to describe pain circulated throughout his body, as if something was tearing his body inside out.
“Nugaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Ah, Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”
‘It hurts! It hurts! It hurts! Damn it! It freaaaaaaaaaking hurts!!!!!’
His thoughts soared in overwhelming pain.
He wanted to say how it really hurts but no words came out from his mouth… only a scream that sounds like a pig being butchered.
He was now started rolling in the ground as his soul and body was engulfed by a terrifying wave of pain.

It’s as if he consumed a very toxic and poisonous poison, it quickly spread in every part of his body.
Tearing and devastating everything that it passes through. Even his bones began creaking in agony as his muscles feels like they were being torn to pieces.
At this moment… … Hein was feeling the real taste of death and what it truly means to be in hell!
When the people outside the water barrier made by Aqua heard Hein’s scream, they suddenly felt some kind of terrifying chills as their body trembled in fear.
Their faces were those that of a person seeing death in front of them, making them shed in cold sweats.
Just by hearing the scream can make them like this … then how painful is it for the one who let this kind of sound?
Just what kind of thing can make someone scream like this?
Lina, Ashley, the royal family as well as Hein’s parents, all of their faces were now as pale as the white clouds.
Some where even began to tear up – especially Hell who was clutching her mother’s clothes with trembling hands.
Leviana’s ashen face were now drenched in tears as she frantically ran towards the water barrier.
When she was a meter away from the water wall, Aqua suddenly sprung up and obstructs her path.
“Aqua! Get out of my way!!!” She shouted as she rushed towards the poor little Aqua.
Without any choice, Aqua immediately summons a wall of water to stop Leviana.
“Why you!!! Aqua, get ou …”
As she desperately run towards the water barrier, she tried to use her magic but then an explosion cut her off.
Inside the water barrier, a very huge explosion suddenly occurred that it almost destroy the water barrier.
Just what is going on inside? What is happening to Hein?!
Everybody screamed in their mind.
Inside the water barrier, Hein was still struggling.
His entire skin was as red as a tomato while it was also releasing a smoke and burned smell.
Right now, he was really in an extremely dangerous situation.

Because of the repercussions, Hein felt that his life was gradually fading away as his consciousness was slowly becoming blurry.
But can he really just let it be like this?
Of course not! Something might happen to Marie while I’m feeling like this!
Closing his eyes, he gradually worked up his determination as he raised his head and glared at the sky….
“Groooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrr!!!!!”
This was the roar of a dragon that makes any living creature cowered in fear when they heard it.
He let out a mighty roar that felt as if it would break the bluish white sky.
The surrounding people, including the royal family dropped into their knees as they cover their ears with their hands.
Even the nearby animals and beasts lay down in the ground, trembling.
Gritting his teeth, Hein endured the vicious pain that erupted from every part of his body. He can only painfully reared his head up and roared in the sky.
Suddenly, on top of his red colored skin, beautiful crimson scales began to emerge.
However, if one looks closely, one can see that it was as if these scales were not real because they flickered every now and then as they were flames dancing.
That’s right, it’s not hard scales but flames in the form of crimson scales.
The appearance of this scale like flames brought absolutely inhumane pain, causing all of the veins in his body to protrude out; contorting his facial expression into a terrifying degree.
Suddenly another wave of even greater pain crashed down in his head as his originally white hair turned into crimson color.
It also happened in his back as two flames gushed out forming into wings, making him curled like a ball roaring in agony.
Grinding his teeth, his throat once again trembles with every guttural, painful roar.
All of his bones and muscles turned into ashes and then reformed into a new one. It once again turned into ash then reformed…
— it once again repeated the same cycle …
This repeated for nine cycles after it finally stop giving him a single moment of relaxation.
But then once again, his spine felt as if it were being pulled out making him once again roared in agony.
In an instant, a tail like thing protrudes from his tailbone.
The tail was made up of pure crimson flames, giving an aura of a beautiful yet majestic presence.
“Groooooooooaaaaaaaaaar!!!”
Hein’s entire boy trembled once again.
Thud!
After a few minutes of intense torture that feels like it lasted for a very long time, he fell into his knees.
“Ha… ha… ha”
Panting like a dog, his foggy mind was gradually returning to normal.
His blurry vision gradually becoming clearer as he noticed the familiar rectangular window obstructing his vision.
Congratulations! Race change from Human to a new race: Draconix!
Draconix forms:
[ Human Form ]:
[ Demi-Human Form ]: (Enabled)
[ Draconix Form ]: (Unavailable— Insufficient Level)
Bracing himself while gathering enough strength, he slowly rose to his feet.
Miraculously, his clothes didn’t burn.
As expected of a [Superior-Rare] grade leather armor made by a high leveled royal tailor, it only suffer a few torn and burns~
Currently, all of his clothes were made from high level items with high flame resistance.
Due to his special yet troublesome body constitution. Sometimes without his knowing he subconsciously released flames from his body, causing his clothes to burn to ashes leaving him naked….
But who would think that it actually helps him this time…. if not then every people in the surrounding would probably see his naked body!
Examining his entire body, he momentarily had a huge shock.
He was now back in his original appearance. A fresh fifteen years old young man.
However, what made him surprised was the current appearance of his body.
It was now covered with beautiful crimson colored scales that look like flames.
In his back were two cool looking wings made from flames and he even has a tail that he can control really well!
Hein observed the various changes in his body for while and then said,
“Status”

Virtuous Sons
The saying goes that when a man is born the Fates weave his destiny and swaddle him in it. Then one day the man dies, and the swaddle becomes a shroud. Heaven moves on. It is audacity to question the Fates. Olympus is Olympus. The land of men is the land of men. To transgress that, to cross the line of divinity and scale Olympus Mons? To defy the Fates and cast off their threads? That is hubris. It’s a mark that every philosopher bears plainly on their soul. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Valor and Violence
Valor and Violence is a series of short stories following different, yet all equally colourful, characters set in the same world. Birth of a Legend, the first short, follows Captain Erskine Erwell, a newly promoted Captain in the Calandorian Royal Navy, charged with protecting his people from all who would do them harm. Great news for the Calandorian citizens, bad news for the Skjar reavers that ravage the shores in search of slaves. But when a small reaver fleet slips the net and escapes to the southern jungles of Marduk, Erwell must fight a war on two fronts; one against the raiders, and a far more difficult war against the hostile landscape. If he can't find allies in this strange land, he may end up being the one in need of saving. The first part of the second short story will be uploaded on Saturday, the 11th of June, following Ferez Ahud, an aspiring young battlemage charged with the unsavoury job of 'terminating' a rogue member of his college. But how this nobody of a mage became a fugitive remains a mystery, and when the answer is discovered, the tables are turned and the hunter becomes the prey. I'll be uploading chapters of more in-universe short stories each week or as close to, work permitting. Content Guidelines: course language and violence
