《Ascension of the Nephilim 》Chapter 209: For the Sake of a Name
Advertisement
The scene was bizarre for those who were not there at the gates. The once maltreated Champion exile was now treated like a king.
The Captains who treated this Champion poorly were not only shocked. They were terrified. The lizards were as rowdy and ill-tempered as orcs in general. These Captains who found the opportunity to mock and insult a Champion without fearing the consequences of their actions made Gojirrah their stress reliever. Whenever they would get irritated or have a bad day, and this Champion was in the area, they would immediately seek out this man and begin to make his life a living hell.
But now, Gojirrah was treated like a king among his peers. And for some strange reason, the Champion that many respected, Tail 1, was bounded and gagged.
"A message talisman in his stomach?!" The Commander was amazed.
"It's ingenious. That's what those humans said they did to hide it from us. Tail 1 just needs to channel the energy in his stomach to warn the rest. It's brilliant. He can send some five to ten messages depending on the length of the message, and he will only need to visit the region near the mountain to meet with those humans and recharge the message talisman. You know how frequently he goes to my region. As you know, I hate him and avoid meeting him if possible. So I don't know if he was visiting my place without my knowing."
The Champions had very ugly expressions on their face.
"By the looks of it, he seems to have frequent visits to the Golem City area."
"He goes... at least three times a week!" The Commander frowned.
Gojirrah was stunned. He had told Kyros that he would meet with this man at least once a month! But three times a week was an interesting result.

"What?! I only meet him once a month!"
"Once a month? His ever trip there is because he is afraid you'd betray our kind! And you only meet with him once a month?!"
"If I count the times that he summoned me, but I refused because I know he was there just to mock me, I'd say twice a month."
"He really is a traitor!" Another Champion realized.
"Lord Kyros? Three times a week is too much! What pressing issues are there in my region that forces him to visit my location three times a week?"
"It must be 'that' call." Kyros answered.
"That call? What call?"
"The Booty call."
"What ritual is this 'booty call'?"
"Erm.. I mean, he is sleeping with someone in your region. Are there any captains guarding the region that is close to this Champion?"
"Well... Yes. But all have weak bloodlines! That Champion would dare not mingle and copulate with those with poor bloodlines!"
"Normally, Yes. But this kingdom has that smokin' hot lizard babe! He sees that princess every day and can only look. Every guy here must be so frustrated. Undoubtedly, some have already made advances to her, right?"
"Yes. Two in fact."
"See. It's good that you are not here. Do you know how frustrating that is? And he can't copulate with those within the region if he wants to win the heart of that princess! So he goes out of his way and offers delusional promises to Captains in faraway regions. Those female Captains in your area should have poor standing. While they are not exiled, they must have entered here by accident and don't have any firm standing that allows them to serve in higher positions in this place, right?"

Gojirrah was enlightened at Kyros's words. After that, the actions of Champion Tail 1 began to make sense!
"It all makes sense now!" Gojirrah was amazed. Kyros was easily able to analyze the situation.
"Anyway, keep that a secret for now. This little misunderstanding makes our lies more believable.
Soon, the group entered the main hall of this kingdom. The renovations for a 'throne' were being made. There were no kings in this kingdom, but the recent arrival of a Commander changed things in the kingdom as he proclaimed himself asking.
The wide hall shocked Gojirrah as he saw it.
"Quite arrogant of this newt to make himself king." Kyros chuckled.
"Still... This place looks like a great place for my Steele family to settle. I'll give you a different kingdom, Gojirrah. I like the architecture of this place. Is that alright, Gojirrah?"
"Ye-Yes! Anything for my lord!"
"Alright. Let's continue with the plan. I'll be 'waking up' now."
"Yes, Lord Kyros."
As the group moved, they began to hear some groaning sounds.
"Uh.... My body..." Kyros voiced out weakly.
"Young friend!" Gojirrah called out.
"Gojirrah? Where are we?"
"Gojirrah?" The Champions murmured at the title.
"This young friend lives in a world where having 'lizard' as a name is weird. So he asked if I could change my name to Gojirrah, which means mighty lizard in their tongue."
The group had envious looks. Gojirrah had the name lizard, which was an average name, but now, it has changed into a mighty lizard. While many wanted to complain and even take the name Gojirrah for themselves, they couldn't, for they do not have dragon blood.
"Young friend, we are in the Lizard Kingdom A."
"Lizard Kingdom A? You lizards have a weird naming scheme. Why A? Can't you even do Alpha? Why not call this kingdom the Alpha Draconis Kingdom? Since you are a dragon, we can name this kingdom, First Dragon Kingdom." Kyros suggested.
The Champions was amazed at the very domineering name. The Commander felt his heartbeat with great desire.
"I must kill this man and be the king of Alpha Draconis Kingdom!" The Commander plotted.
"Henceforth, shall we call this place Alpha Draconi Kingdom! Land of the First Dragon!" Commander Longneck declared.
"You! Wise human... What is your name?"
"Young friend, this is Commander Longneck!" Gojirrah introduced.
"Longneck? But his neck isn't even long!"
"How dare this stupid human insult the commander! I will-"
SMASH!
The Commander whipped his tail at the Champion, who shouted at Kyros.
The Champion was sent flying and crashed on the pillars nearby.
"What name can you bestow me, oh wise one?" The Commander asked and gave a respectful greeting.
Gojirrah and Kyros were amazed.
"Wow. I can already hold a good position in this kingdom without even showing off my skills as an alchemist and potion brewer! He even struck a Champion all for the sake of getting a cooler name!"
Kyros watched the tall Commander.
"I guess the least I can do is give him a cool name... Calaminus?" Kyros thought.
Calaminus was named one of the famous lizards known in the world of his incarnation.
"How about this then..." Kyros paused to maximize anticipation, excitement, and tension.
"The Great Commander-King of Alpha Draconi, Komodo Dragon!"
Longneck trembled with great satisfaction as he heard his new name.

Midnight Origins: Arrival
On a lush planet known as Bhar, Verun is now the leading nation in the development of the rivaled schools of Magic and Science. Having brought forth an era of peace and prosperity for themselves through the development of Magitech, The High council was eager to spread their knowledge and beliefs to the furthest reaches of the continent, with the goal of ending senseless conflicts and prioritizing advancements in Magitech and improving the quality of life. This ambition, however, is not without opposition. Most followers side with one school or another, believing it is superior in nature. This conflict dates back to the very beginning of civilization itself, where it is believed by both sides that their gods descended from the heavens, bestowing upon them the knowledge that would bring the world into a new age.
