《True Ruler》Back to where my roots came from!
Advertisement
I was working since the early morning and now I finally had a break. Since I was on a ship, I went up to the deck for a breather. I loved the wind especially when I was up in the air but since I was the last dragon, there was no way I would risk that these humans spot me and hunt me to the end of the world.
No thank you!
Me: Ah~!
It was soo nice being on the deck for once and relax too.
Me: Te weather is so nice....
That was one mistake a lot of people on the sea don't know and don't care really. Humans were stupid after all. It might be nice and it might also be sunny for now but there was this breeze that I knew all too well.
I didn't need to have some special dragon senses to know that a storm was coming up. The birds were also trying to escape and fly away from it. They all looked panicked that's how I know that this storm would be one hell of a storm. Still I found myself wishing to be out and fly into it. Feeling the rain on my scales and then the thunder around me that could perfectly overlap with a dragon's cry and no one would even realize what it was.
Me: It sure will rain...
As I said that a couple of birds flew past me. They still kept a safe distance since I was a dragon but I loved seeing them fly and it made me jealous to see them to that.
Me:....Whoooooaaaaa~ I sure wish to fly with them and be soo ... Free....
???: IRUMA! BREAK IS OVER! STOP LAZING AROUND!
Me: Ah yes Sir!
... HOW THE HELL DID I GET INTO THIS KIND OF SITUATION?!!!
I mean I knew that my human adoptive parents were extreme but still?

Selling me off?!
Like WHAT THE ACTUALL FUCK?!
Come on! Give me a break for some times!
Me: Can you please tell me one more time why- no how one thing went to another and me being here....
???: Of course. So your parents got a sudden interest in summoning Demons and I answered their call because of boredom. I then said to them bring me a human child and I will give you money. After that I signed a contract with them right away.
Ah but don't worry! No matter how far away you are I will protect you!
I knew that my parents suck but I never did complain since I was a dragon and adopted after all. Still this is a little bit extreme!
No matter how much I look at it, this whole thing doesn't make sense to me and that demon in front of me looked kinda nice but also scary. I couldn't quite decide what I should go for.
Why would such a thing even want a human?
Wait...
Will he eat me?
No! NO NO!
I survived so much and now I will be eaten?
I am a dragon!
A proud creature how did I end up like this?
I might not be able to say no due to how much I've been through but still... This is too much! There will be always a first!
Looks like this will be my first time saying no!
???: Hey?
Me: Yes?
???: Am I correct to say that you must be irritated and annoyed if not even have a death wish for them.
Me: Annoyed and irritated, definitely yes! But I do not wish them death! I would gladly say fuck of into their face the next time I see them.
???: It seems to me that you don't have a habit of getting angry a lot..
I was on the ground looking up at a tall creature that was sitting on a throne like seat.

I am done for live!
This is it!
It was not that I couldn't change into my dragon form at all. I was not defenseless. I only hated to hurt other people. He might also have his own reason for getting me here.
However the moment he stood up and jumped down from the chair, the whole mood in the room changed to a deadly one.
???: But if you change your attitude, it can be pretty bothersome. I can't let this splendid chance slip by. Come here and prepare yourself!
Was what he said with a deathly aura around him while he was walking towards me? All I could think was:
Great!
You just fucked up!
Say goodbye to your precious life!
What happened next was sure not something I have expected. In one moment I was on the ground with rope all around me and on the next one I was sitting on a small thrown and the small demon began serving me some tea.
Like what the heck?
Did I just die?
Did my life just passed me and this is something else?
Is this a joke?
No wait this is a prank!!!
Does he know?
Maybe he knows that I am a dragon and that the very first dragon ascended from the royal bloodline of the demon king. He himself was a dragon and the hell was our home.
Nah!
There is no way he knows that!
We did hide our existence pretty well!
Besides all the demons were created by dragons after all. There is no god that was doing it for the demons...
Me: AHM... What ... What is this....?
???: This is are some presents I prepared for my little grandchild and some cakes!
All I could do was stare. This situation went from 0 to hundred and all around again.
???: To tell you the truth, I'm single but I've always dreamed of having a grandson.
I am pretty sure this is not how that works!
...
Wait a moment!
Did he say grandchild?
He then went over to me and kneeled in front of me looking up too.
???: and so Iruma-kun can you become my grandson?
Me: HUH? Wait! Hold on! WHAT!!!
???: You see. I am just a lonely demon that wishes nothing more than a family.
Me: Do I have the right to refuse?
???: I will respect your decisions if you don't like to be my grandson, no harm is done.
I looked at the creature that was apparently a demon and began thinking.
It might not be bad being back in my homeland after all!
I can feel my inner dragon loving it here!
I might give it a try!
It's not like I have somewhere better to go and he looks nice. He also hasn't done anything to me.
???: Please fulfill my only wish.
Me: I... Yes.
Just like that I became the grandson of a great demon. It was just on a wimp and I could have definitely escaped that situation but something about him made me rethink. My live was also not the best one.
???: So.. We shouldn't delay any longer!
I could hear him say that before a magic circles was below me and my whole clothing changed. I was now wearing a uniform.
Me: What... What is this?
It took me by surprise since I haven't thought that he would do something like that and schools uniform were a little bit too much!
???: It suits you perfectly~! You are my first beloved grandchild. I will take care of everything not only food and clothing but also education! You will attend the best school in the underworld!

Daily life of a cultivation judge
Tired of those cultivators who think it is righteous to eliminate a sect or clan root and stem all in the name of revenge and avoiding future troubles, fights over treasures that end up destroying cities with no consequence whatsoever to the culprit, these psychos whose aim for the peak always involves a trail of carnage and bloodshed in its wake for some reason. Then look no further than the daily life of a cultivation judge. Yang Qing, is a young genius cultivator from a low-tier family whose only safe choice to get resources and hopefully lead an easy life led him to the courts of the Cultivation Order Society. Author’s disclaimer: Hey there this is my first novel so any criticism will be well taken though beware I’m a million-year-old monster who has cultivated the way of the sword to the peak. The daily life of a cultivation judge will be true to its name so it will be heavily on the slice of life lane with a bit of action here and there.Meaning we will see the life of Yang Qing when he clocks in and out. Hopefully, it will be one of those novels you read if you need to relax or are in a slacker mood like one of those otakus who listen to the noises of cicadas in the summer famously used in most animes. And it is in the slacker spirit that chapter release will be on Wednesday,Thursday and Friday. Sank yuuu Cover art by Conny Schneider on Unsplash
