Chapter 66
Chapter 66 Strongest Sage, Feared
The invoked 【Dragon Breath】 wasn't adjusted for a friend at all .
"Mathi-kun!"
I could hear Alma and Ruli's shout .
『Dragon Breath』 is an assembly of extremely sophisticated and fine magic .
Even if it's not at full power, its destructive force is in a wholly different level than anything I've faced so far .
If it hit its target, it would probably blow me and even Ruli and Alma away . There won't even be an ash left .
However, that won't happen .
I instantly kneaded my mana while staring at the breath's mana, and then I trusted my mana into the breath when it got right before me .
–And then the 『Dragon Breath』 vanished almost at the same time my mana touched it .
『Dragon Breath』 is a very fine spell art without any waste .
It's also why it's extremely fragile when the weak part of its spell art gets precisely shot .
""《 . . . . Eh?》""
Two humans and one dragon's overlapping voices .
《Erasing Dragon Breath with that kind of magic . . . . U-um . . . 》
《What》
《Do you maybe know someone called Gaias? Several thousands years ago he passed away while leaving words that he'd reincarnate . . . . 》
《'Course I am, I'm that Gaias reincarnated . 》
《Hiii!?》
Dark Dragon Iris took several steps back while shrinking its body when I said that .
《I'm sorry, I never thought that Gaias-sama would really reincarnate, it was a mistake, so . . . Please don't killmeeeeee》
It vigorously threw its head and wings onto the ground and rapidly asked for forgiveness in dragon language .
The force was enough to form a crater on the ground where it hit its head .
Just where did the dignified speech this dragon used in the beginning go .
《 . . . Don't worry . I'm not here to kill you . You'll keep your life if you can accept my term . 》

《Is that true?》
《Yeah . It is . I'd have killed you already if I wanted to anyway . 》
《Hii!?》
Dark Dragon Iris retreated several steps back while getting frightened .
Well, to tell you the truth, the me right now would have a hard time killing this dragon . . . . Being excessively feared is convenient in its own way .
For now, I'll just scare it a bit .
《And that term is . . . . 》
《A-are you going to . . . peel off my scales while I'm alive?》
《No . What do you think I am anyway?》
Even if I kill my enemy, I don't take a liking in uselessly torturing them .
《 . . . The strongest dragon slayer in history who single-handedly slew most of the dragons?》
《You're not wrong, but the dragons were the one who picked a fight with me first weren't they . 》
《That's true and all, but . . . 》
The reason was . . . What was it again .
I already forgot about it, but it was quite asinine .
A great number of dragons attacked my house, then I attacked them back in response, and ultimately, most of the dragons were slain except for ones that were absent and surrendered .
That said, Dark Dragon Iris was unlike other dragons as it wasn't really hostile to me .
It acted alone among the dragons to begin with, and it didn't look like it had a grudge against me even in my past life .
《I've come here not for such a boorish reason . I want to go kill some annoying demons, but my destination is far away you see . Just then, I found a mana reaction that seemed right for it . 》
I showed Iris the crest on my hand .
《Aa . Fourth Crest is it . It's Gaias-san's favorite crest, or rather I feel like it's exactly the crest that shouldn't be given to Gaias-san, but it's not suited for teleport magic huh . 》

《You got that right . By the way, my name is Mathias in this life, call me that . Keep the thing about my reincarnation a secret from other humans . 》
《I understand!》
I feel like it'll just bring trouble if the thing about reincarnation gets found out .
Particularly, one of the religious sects in my past life forbade magic that's related to souls .
I don't know the current situation of sects today, but hiding it should be the right thing to do here .
"Mathi-kun! What's with this situation!?"
Alma's voice forced its way through while I was conversing with Iris .
Well, after all, just when the dragon suddenly shot a great magic which then vanished, it proceeded to prostrate itself . Of course, you'd want to retort that .
"We're still negotiating, but it's going well!"
《Um . . . I haven't said that I could do it though . . . . 》
Dark Dragon Iris said that it wasn't going to accept the term when it heard me .
It's speaking in dragon language right now, but dragons that are higher than a certain rank can understand human language .
By the way, this dragon can also assume human form . I haven't seen it though .
《Hn?》
Maybe I should threaten it more .
I knead my mana a bit while thinking that .
《Hii!? Noo, it's not that I won't do it, I can't do it! Look at my wings!》
When it saw me kneading mana, Dark Dragon Iris stepped back while spreading its wings for me to see .
Those wings are tattered in a way that has never been seen before .
–Magically and physically speaking .

Blood Quest - A LitRPG
Leon's family has been diagnosed with a new type of incurable blood disease. It's an absolute death sentence and when it turns aggressive, you only have a few more years of painful life left to live. His mother has just begun the last years of the disease when a person supposedly comes back from death with supernatural abilities. He talks about a choice you get after death--get an extra chance to come back to life, or die. Even with Leon's diminishing life span, he won't consider the option of going there, until he meets another survivor who had the same goal as him and succeeded. Leon has a choice to make—die now for a chance to save his mother, or die in a few years, where the disease rapidly melts his muscles from his own body. He enters a game-like world, a sort of limbo, where his ultimate goal is to climb the tower of Katastroph before his mother's time runs out. There are a few problems with this though. The tower is almost impossible to beat, if you die you won't revive, and only three people in over twenty years have actually made it back. Leon has two years to climb the tower, with the help of the few people willing to try, while Ai, the tutorial guide, makes things harder for them. ***** The story starts pretty dark but goes onto a lighter tone. Then (more) dark again. Disclaimer: This story is an experimental project and I hope to get any and all feedback you can give me. Warning: First draft. Chapters tend to be between 3400-4100 words long (about 8-11 A4-pages). Mentioning it since I've seen it in other fictions :P Sometimes they're shorter, sometimes they're longer. ******************************** CHAPTER RELEASES UPDATE: As the first "book" in the series is done, I'm going to release coming chapters somewhat sporadically, and when Writathon ends, I'll probably go back to publishing one chapter per weekend. We'll just have to wait and see! I hope you enjoy the story! I really appreciate all comments and feedback, so if you have anything to say, feel free to voice it :) ************ [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

The Unnoticed Dungeon
A newly formed dungeon core awakes with no memory of who or what he was. In fact, he just found out that he died. He has no idea or when or how he came to pass, and now finds himself being forced to start all over as a dungeon core. Worse yet, he isn't even your average run of the mill dungeon. No, the Overseers, whoever they are, have designated him to be an experimental core. This means he doesn't have to play by all the rules, the bad news is that if the core oversteps his boundaries as a dungeon core too far he's more than dead; he's erased. Now he has to struggle to figure out what kind of dungeon he wants to be, all the while very aware that he can't play it safe. The overseers don't want safe, they want lines redrawn and limits reset. The question is, can he do it and survive? He asks, because he overstepped before he even made it to his new world.

BlackCrown

By releasing strange substances into the earth, air, and water the planet started to change. It was not until ten years later that the first batch of superhumans was born. They had abilities that could not be explained. Superspeed. Superstrength. Magic. The superhumans showed the world that all of it was possible. They called the abilities EXO and the people who wielded such an ability, EXO users. They quickly found out that not every EXO was the same. One EXO user had one EXO ability and what that ability was could be categorized into one of three types. Offensive, Defensive or Support. The government was the first to act after five years. Every EXO user must be subjected to whole new laws and they must get their abilities under control. Specialized schools were built all across the world that were made to train them. Under the pretense of saying it was to develop their abilities, the government was actually building an army. Humans were not the only ones to change…
