《Prevented My Empire From Falling》04
Advertisement
It was yesterday night we stormed in and took the throne. We were so tired but we couldn't sleep comfortably just in case. So we took turns sleeping. In the night I managed to sleep due to tiredness, then while I finished a bunch of work, they slept in the same room where I worked, just in case.
I sent out letters to the nobles, flyers to the commoners that the King and Queen died, and I will become their new ruler. Hopefully they wouldn't mind it but if they opposed… things could get messy, but i knew that wouldn't happen.
I found out that the more I'm tired the more Rela’s body takes over and the harder it is for me to take back control. I had to make sure I had plenty of energy from now on.
I started scribbling the things I have done off my checklist.
-Take the throne ✓
-Save my brother for poison attempt
-Check out the sword skill of the Royal guards
-Make a secret tunnel for myself and for my brothers
-Find the traitors with full evidence.
-what to do with the suitors.
-and what to do with the consorts.
And I had many more things to check out. I was especially worried about the romance bit. I had to adopt or produce an heir for the throne in order to avoid the big war coming up. Plus if the consorts face were familiar it would be….. Awkward for me.
I sat back in my chair and sighed.
KNOCK KNOCK.
Aeson sprang up and fumbled his sword. His face was all one sided as if he was licked by a horse.
“Your Highness, the people of the city have gathered in front of the palace.” the knight announced.
Even though he was not inside the room his voice was loud and clear.

“Why have they gathered!? To assassinate Her Highness? ” Aeson shouted back.
At this point anyone around would already have woken up. That was the case for Ian. He rubbed his eyes and ruffled his hair. His blond hair shined in the sunlight. He was actually breathtakingly beautiful.
“Hey,” Aeson shook me out of my thoughts. “Let’s get going.” Aeson marched off outside. I grabbed my sword and followed.
I heard chanting from the entrance of the palace. There were many people, at least 50 or 100.
We continued as we could make out the words.
“Long live the Queen!” they chanted.
Ah, of course, they might have lost hope when they heard I was poisoned by the Queen. They thought i died--- Even the King and Queen thought so, although the queen was suspicious because of the amount of mana i left.
“Citizens!” I boomed.
They calmed down.
“I apologize for how long you all have suffered. But we will become great again. Greater than before!” I said the exact same thing as Rela had done.
That brought out a big cheering and a round of applause.

I can summon my past lives
What would you do if you were the only cultivator on the planet? What would you do if you could summon the soul bodies of your previous lives and leech off of their experiences?

Lucky for me, my past lives were quite badass in their respective universes during their prime until their untimely deaths...well most of them, I think. Their experiences remolded the current me to become their best version. I learned something: As powerful as they were, they still died for one reason or another until it was ultimately my time to live. In this life, I vow to learn from their mistakes and live forever. Besides, there must be a reason this {Requiem System} I got was given to me in this life. I am scared I am the last life to be reincarnated. If I die, there won’t be another do over. And why would I die if my reincarnations are also invested in this life as I am? They came with their powers intact...just that they lack a physical body which I am happy to share. With beings that strong at my beck and call, I think the bar that I must surpass had been raised a little bit too high. I am called Damon Kaze and I welcome you to this journey of my last reincarnation of mine. I can’t guarantee it’ll be your cup of tea, but hey, sometimes you never get what you wish for. You just have to live with it and hope for the best.

The Animo Saga
Before history was well-recorded in the world of Ulakam, primordial animal spirits adopted humans, provided protection and developed deep spiritual connections with them. Millennia later, humans now host animal spirits and are split into tribes named for the species they host. Ulakam is slowly being consumed by a decades-long war pitting the main tribes against the smaller tribes and a group of bandits calling themselves "the resistance". Callida Animo was born into this world. Coming from a mixed family of generational soldiers, Callida joined the family business at a young age. In her words, she was practically bred, born, and raised to be a soldier. And she's good at what she does... which inevitably attracts attention that makes her unambitious self extremely uncomfortable. Love, loss, influence and growth. This is her story. Written episodically, this story focuses on relationships and character growth through a series of mini-arcs that connect to make a greater whole. (Honestly, the story would lend itself well to a TV series.) "Episodes" range from 3-7 chapters (at least so far), and average about 4 or 5 chapters. Author's note: I'm always thrilled to receive comments, follows, ratings/reviews, messages.... All forms of feedback are welcome and encouraged. However, I have no interest in begging readers for more engagement to get better visibility. I tried that with my last story and found the game soul-sucking. So! This constitutes my only self-promotion request. If you are reading this story, let me know what you think! I love engaging with my readers. We'll see if growing the readership organically is even possible. Thank you! 😘 Release schedule: Weekly on Wednesday afternoons
