《The Zodians - Book 1: The Outlander》The Return of Warriors - Chapter 2: Hearts of Dragon

Across the Black Sea, the Sanctuary of Glamgmar, Flezard.
Satriant Lutes respectfully brought something to Lapunta, who was fiddling with the Dariarus Steel handrails of the iron throne. There was not even a single light in the Glamgmar Palace at this time. If it were not for the light from the sun creeping into the hollow carvings on the walls and windows, Glamgmar would look like a dungeon. Lapunta with the crown he had coveted from his days as a child, and in his hand the skull of King Robert with a piece of dry skin on his head and a few strands of black hair, perched on the throne. With silver-white eyes and half-black-and-white hair, in her deep and hoarse voice, Lapunta smiled and asked:
“Is that it?”
"Yes, Your Majesty," replied Lutes respectfully. He slowly approached Lapunta, who was fidgeting on the throne, offering him a plate containing something. “This is the dragon heart that Your Majesty needs.”
Lapunta looked extremely satisfied. He reached out and grabbed the dragon's heart almost the size of an adult's head, still beating and bleeding on the copper plate, and ate it immediately. Soon that heart was just blood stains on the corners of his mouth. Lapunta licked off the blood with his tongue, then Lutes wiped his mouth with a towel. Satriant Lutes is Lapunta's most loyal servant. He worships Lapunta as a god, and is not afraid to do any crime to serve him.
"I'm still not feeling well…" Lapunta growled, shaking his head. “One heart is not enough…”
"That's the last adult dragon here, Your Majesty," Lutes replied calmly. “Only baby dragons remain.”
“Then bring them all up!” shouted Lapunta, his voice hitting the walls and echoing. “Lutes, I'm dying… I can feel it.”

“No, my lord,” Lutes knelt down, taking his hand. “You are the god, the saint who saves this miserable world. You will never die, you will live forever.”
Lapunta felt more reassured hearing that. He smiled, touched one of Lutes' cheek, and said:
“You really are the one true loyalist to me.”
“I will serve you with my life,” Lutes looked at him with determined eyes.
"Very well," Lapunta smiled. “Now, bring me the baby dragons.”
“Do you need…”
“No,” he interrupted. Lapunta held King Robert's skull in his hand and looked at it thoughtfully, hand-picked the skin still stuck on the skull, pulled out a few hairs that were still stuck on it, and then put it in his mouth to enjoy. “Bring the baby dragons here, I will eat them alive.”

The Rocky Shore
This is a LitRPG series. Every story you read here takes place in the same virtual world, with the same rules and limitations. Characters will travel, explore vast and dangerous realms, overcome obstacles, meet one another, enter into conflicts with one another, forge alliances, make horrible mistakes, and occasionally just die. A technological singularity has been achieved, and humanity has been trapped in a virtual world by a super-intelligent, self-improving artificial intelligence. This program is not malicious at all. In fact, it desires nothing except the happiness and fulfillment of every human it has copied into itself. If its decisions seem strange to you, that's only because its reasoning is far beyond ours. It recognizes that humans cannot be happy without enemies to overcome and goals to achieve, as well as the possibility of failure and death. The world it has created may be heaven or hell, depending on the free choices of the people it contains. The non-player characters who live in this realm have no idea that they are part of a vast computer system. They seem real enough, but there is no way to tell if they are truly self-aware. Even the system that created them isn't certain. This is world in which all the things that humans are used to dealing with in the abstract: skills, talents, knowledge, reputation, social status, morality, even love, exist as readable statistics that players can see and interact with objectively. This has many curious and complex effects on how people perceive themselves and the world around them. A few quick notes on the system: -Death is permanent -The system interface can only be accessed at certain locations. -Magic of diverse kinds is available and useful, but is not a good substitute for skills, physicallity, or mental prowess. Non-magical characters are common and competitive. -There is no inventory system. Characters must physically carry everything they wish to have on their person. -Healing is slow and difficult. Magical Healing is all but unheard of. Protagonists: Raymond Garrison- A man in his late twenties who used to work as a forklift operator in Idaho. His path leads him to work as a mercenary, protecting a small community of humans and goblins from the Seelie Fae who wish to exterminate them. Patricia Chandler- A elderly British woman who arrives in this new world with her grandson Kyle and her granddaughter Elizabeth. Never having dealt with rpg game mechanics before, she is in for a rough time, but she is determined to keep her grandkids alive in a world full of danger and evil. Jamil Mesbah- An Egyptian woman who once worked as a technical writer. Her path leads into a vast and hostile forest, where she must master both her magical abilities and her survival skills in order to succeed. Enjoy your travels, friends.

On his second lease at life, how will he choose to live? What goals will he aspire to achieve? What Chaos will he bring to this new world!? Find out by reading the story, cuz I honestly don't know! [This story is quite a slow burner, especially since 200+ pages are dedicated to his life before getting reincarnated.] [Chapter Length: 2500-3500 words (It can only be more, never less. Except for bonus/extra or interlude Chapters)] [Chapter Release: Once Every Sunday. Depending on certain factors, like story-pacing, I may post more.] [The Warning tags are just there to give me freedom when writing. I don't plan to be overly descriptive of schmex scenes and gore. Don't worry.] Hello! I'm Lire, and this is my first fiction! I know its going to be rough around the edges. But I'm trying my best to improve day by day. I hope you're patient with me if you do give this fiction a try! Correction suggestions are appreciated. Same with grammar corrections. English isn't my first language, so it would help me improve. I'll try my best to make as few mistakes as possible though! Constructive Criticism is very welcome. Anything to make my first brain-child, the best it can possibly be!! If all you do is diss it, without providing anything constructive, I'm ready to pour whatever creative juices I have on making up insults for you, your mother, and all your Ancestors! ...as long as I don't feel particularly lazy at the time. Also, if your diss makes me laugh while also being true, you get a pass too. I'll even give you rep. By the way, this work will be heavily influenced by (English TLed) Japanese Light Novels and Korean Web Novels. I mainly read that kinda stuff after all. With minor influence from Wuxia and Xianxia. Really, just a little though. Oh, and Harry Potter which I read repeatedly when I was a child. If you hate those types of novels, then please piss off immediately. I don't want to waste your time. Now, If you do like them, then please give my novel a shot! *bows*
