《The Tale of A Fortunate Slave》Arrival
Advertisement
Thee months after the Treaty of Moonborn and one week after arriving on the continent of Deamonia.
Ash was sitting in a carriage across from the Queen of Daemonia, Orlia Dareheart. Why? Because the Queen decided to bring her - an orphan slave - along for the ride, the reason of which she did not know. She stared out the window of the carriage just taking in the view of hilly farms and forests.
The city of Dorin the capital of the Queendom of Daemonia came into view, the night lights of the city showed much. Lit farm land and dark forests all around the city. It was an astonishing view. Her jaw dropped and the Queen, looking up from the book she was reading only to see the child stare out the window with the kind of stare that only an excited and somewhat nervous child could replicate, laughed. "Are you excited?" The Queen asked. One or two dozen nods in rapid succession confirmed her question.
Ash hadn't spoken much during the trip, she had used S.I.S.L (Simple International Sign Language). This was mostly done because she didn't quite trust any one yet, except for the Queen who she only spoke to when signs and dirt drawings didn't quite get the point across. Most world leaders learned S.I.S.L as part of their curriculum in order to prevent secret messages and declaration of war, yes that did happen at some point in the distant past it's a long story. The reason why this is is because everyone wanted to prevent thing like the previously mentioned war. And S.I.S.L was also part of most basic education though most forgot how to use it by the time they graduate.
But enough of that we need to get back to the main story.

They were just a few meters past the gates. The not so small convoy was passing a couple thousand people of varying races, such as Orcs, Elves, Humans, Kitsune, Inu, and Nekomata, all of whom were celebrating the arrival of their Queen and the victory over the now Lesser Kingdom of Albert. Flags of varying colors and shapes were strewn from the roofs of buildings to the other side of the street. Ash of course hid from the people so as to not be seen by the many strangers, most of whom she did not know the race of and you can't blame her, shes not the most educated person out there. She is quite shy in the way someone that has had a been through hell and back would be. Well slavery and back at the very least.
Suddenly there was a loud noise that had made her retreat even further into her little corner. Orlia saw this and said. "It's just a firework, nothing to be scared about." She had said it in such a comforting tone that made Ash stick her head out a little bit more. Ash had signed. The Queen couldn't help but laugh. "If you look out the window you would see why." The Queen stated. When she actually did look out the window (while remaining hidden) her eyes shone with awe.

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 ^^)
