《Reverse Scale: Draconic Rebirth》Chapter 5: The Emperors New Clothes + Meet The Heroes
Advertisement
[Yukiara: "Jill, If you're going to be part of the Silver-Star faction, you'll have to learn the humanoid-form skill. There are many racists in the Royal Capital. They see every species without a humanoid form as a monster.
Lucky you, as a humanoid dragon, I have the authority to grant the humanoid-form skill to dragonoid races."]
[Jill: "I understand, but what about elder Mu?"]
[Mu: "Eheh..."]
[Yukiara: "Mu is an absolute buffoon with illusion and transmutation type spells..."]
(...)
After a while, the butler returned with my new clothes. He led me into a big, extravagant changing room, where he placed the cloth and left.
It was a black jacket with a golden embroidered dragon on the back. No, not like the Yakuza, a european dragon. It also had other golden lines woven into it, creating an intricate design. The wolf-fur was made into a big, imposing cloak, it kinda reminded me of a Viking...
When I got dressed and left the room, I was immediately guided to another room by the butler. There awaited me a beautiful young woman.
She had smooth, pale skin, long, flowy blue hair, two small reptilian horn,
yellow, piercing eyes. Her figure was slim and elegant. Her chest was on the smaller side, but her hips were just right. Right above her stunning bottom curve, a long reptilian tail extended. No doubt, this was Jill's humanoid form.
["Oi, Jill, how do I say this... You look great."]
A light blush spread over her face.
[Jill: "Eh... Um... Thank you."]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the lounge of the Ice-Dragons manor sat Mu, relaxing and drinking herbal tea, when Ren entered with a reluctant face.
[Ren: "Hey, Mu... Why didn't you tell me that you'd recommend me to be the Emperor... No... More precisely, why do you want me to be the Emperor?"]
[Mu: "Because it's your birthright as Fafnirs descendant. And also because in the short time we spent together, I came to know your kindness, which is what this continent lack."]
[Ren: "I don't know if this is the right time to say this, but This is not my first life... Originally I was a human from another world, so I don't think I have the right..."]

[Mu: "Don't worry about that, I already expected such circumstances... I mean, why would a dragon be born in its human form and walk and talk like an adult a few months after its birth..."]
[Ren: "Ehh?! So you don't think it's weird?!"]
[Mu: "Not at all. I don't know how it was in your world, but here the concept of reincarnation and the descent of otherworldly heroes is fairly common... in fact, it's so common, that some species such as ents always carry over their memories and every few decades new otherworldly reincarnate, be it new bodies or their old one.
For example, the grandfather of the head of the Illa-Theocracy, Lady Sara van Heron was apparently a summoned hero, hence the name 'Heron'..."]
[Ren: "Phew... I am so relieved right now... Alright, I'll do it. I'll become Emperor!"]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I, Sara Van Heron, have watched over the heroes' growth and training up until now. The female teacher, Cathlin has an extraordinary talent for holy magic. It seems she was a religion and literature teacher in her past world. Her level also rose to level 52. The man called Johnson only showed potential in his physical strength. He was apparently a PE and biology teacher. His level stagnated somewhere in the late thirties.
The students were the most surprising. The average level of them was 16, but now It's about 68...
Under the students, there are 6 special ones.

The Five Series - redemption
Book 1 - Redemption Three generations have passed since the last near-apocalyptic war. Civilization is beginning to thrive again at an ever increasing pace. The burden of society has been once again placed on the back of a massive robotic workforce, creating a huge divide between industrial glory, and those forced to live in its shadow. Many have stubbornly held onto the old ways of self-governance from back when the government fell, but with its return, life in Welan City is changing. Aaron, a middle-aged man, who is stuck in the rut of daily life, witnesses a murder and finds himself in trouble, love, and the middle of a highly secretive robotics project. Aaron stakes his life on helping a prototype survive, and pays for it dearly. Passionate hate, love, and indifference send life in Welan City spiraling out of control, leaving no one innocent in the end. The Five Series is, well, a series. I've completed 3 of the books so far and will finish with a fourth, maybe fifth book. Book 1 is heavy on the character development side while the following will be much more decision and consequence oriented. This story reaches into the soul of a person and the universe we live in. Some people deserve a second chance, and some do not. With that im mind, no one really ever gets what they deserve though, do they? Always tell the people you care about that you love them as often as you can, they could be gone tomorrow. Would that change if you could always bring them back? I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did writing it. Cody

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.

Amethyst Phoenix
A sweet nectar drips before me. All other sources of sustenance have dried up. I’m afraid to drink it because I’ve seen the consequences of even a drop too much.

But once I drink this sap from the forbidden fruit, it cannot be undone, regardless of whether I take too much. I choose to take this leap through the void. And so I raise this ancient cup. I will not die a husk. A man without ambition is reborn in the body of Aegis Hyades Rastine to a world of fairy tales, only to find that it's as screwed up as any other.
