《True Ruler》My rank is immeasurable!
Advertisement
Once Kalego-sensei told us that we immediately followed him to the hill inside the campus. I was wondering the whole time what we were doing out here for the first time until he explained it to us.
Kalego-sensei: Results of the previous summon familiar and this test will decide your rank. All of you must cross the valley, to the place of the flag.
After that I stopped listening to our sense and looked at the map a little bit closer. It seemed like we had two options here. They were two valleys we could basically chose to go through.
The one was a lot longer but it was also the safest bet. No harm would befall us on this route. However if the other one not only looked a lot harder but there were also a lot more traps and problems around the route.
Sabnock: WHY NOT?!
Kalego-sensei: I told you not to and this is final!
Sabnock: WHAT THE HELL IS THAT FOR A REASON!!!
Kalego-sensei: Why can't you be like the others and just accept it?
Sabnock: I will be the next demon king! How can I just accept going the rainbow road around this excercise, you fucking idiot!
Kalego-sensei: For some reasons the leader of that valley didn't allow us to run though. Thus it is a restricted area for now.
Sabnock: I CAN'T ACCEPT THAT!
Kalego-sensei: Do whatever you want. Now then everyone get ready!
The moment he said that I saw everyone spreading their wings and this was the moment I fucked up. If I was to open and use my wings, then they would all see the scales I had. I was a dragon and not a demon after all. Not only that but their form was also different than theirs. There was no way I was about to open them.
Kalego-sensei: If everyone is ready then we can start our air racing now!
... NO!
NONONONONO!
Why does it have to be air racing?
Can't we just climb over the mountains?
Why air racing?
Like why?!
The moment he said that everyone began dashing into the air until I was the only one left.
Kalego-sensei: And what are you waiting for? A personal invitation maybe?
I watched our homeroom teacher and my familiar come over me and the grab me by the collar.

Nah!
Bro!
Do you see wings on me?!
NAH-AH!
Don't you dare buddy!
You will regret this!
In no way would I let him toss me into that would without coming with me. He began dragging me across the floor and didn't even give me a moment to explain to him what was going on. I could hear the other already far away only Kalego and I were still on the starting line.
Kalego-sensei: Stop struggling.
This was the moment I decide to transform into my dragon from. He was my familiar after all. There was no harm in showing him what I truly am since I had the feeling that he hated Sullivan and was hating me just because of that.
Me: Let me go!
However there was no sign of him actually thinking of letting me go. He was now on my back and I didn't liked that one bit.
Me: I said: LET. ME. GO!!!
Me: ROAR!!!
Kalego-sensei: Dragon....
YES!
I am a dragon!
...
Wait...
So this is how my scales change their color in the demon realm?
Black and Blue like my flames... I like it.
Better than the leave green of the earth.
I knew that that they would change but still... wow.
He looked at me while I simply just roared at him and was now fletching my teeth at him. I didn't like being commanded around and it was my inner dragon to not like the fact that my familiar was looking down on me. Once I roared at him, I saw his eyes go wide and him slowly dropping to the floor. Since I didn't want anyone else to find out what I was, I quickly transformed back.
Kalego-sensei: Where the heck did Sullivan actually find you?
Me: The land where the old ancestors once went to and never returned...
Kalego-sensei: Does he know that you are dragon?
Me: Yes. He had a hunch when he took me in.
Kalego-sensei: Who else knows about this?
Me: No one.
Kalego-sensei: Keep it this way.
Me: What now?
Kalego-sensei: You don't have to participate into this. I already know that your rank will be immeasurable.
Me: Huh?
Kalego-sensei: You don't know?
Me: No. I have no clue about this world.
Kalego-sensei: *sigh* Listen kid...
He then quickly explained the 10 different ranks and how they were called. I never knew that there was something like this at all. Apparently the old demon king was a Yodh too.

Kalego-sensei: The ranking system only applies to us demons and not to our ancestors like you.
Me: ...
Kalego-sensei: Kid?
Me: ...
Kalego-sensei: If you have something to tell me then spit it out already!
Me: I am not only a dragon but I am also a direct bloodline of the royal family who created this world and the demons.
Kalego-sensei: ....
Me: Kalego-sensei?
He looked at me and in the next time he was on the ground unconscious.
I guess this was too much for him!
Me: So what now?
As I was thinking what to do I could hear a scream from a monster and I immediately knew that someone went to the wrong valley and the person could no other be than Sabnock. Knowing this and knowing by the battle cry of the leader of the valley, I knew he had no chance. So I did the most logical thing and transformed into a dragon once more, teleported Kalego to the finish line and jumped off the cliff and began soaring through the sky to his rescue.
While I was flying to that stupid dog, I saw something that caught my eyes and landed in the nest of the leader. There was a young monster. He looked scared and injured. Seeing as the poor guy was injured and that the leader of the valley was probably its mother, I could easily count 1 and 1 together.
Me: Don't be afraid of me!
I knew that there was no way that he would listen to me but I still wanted to try and calm it down. However it was only a good thought as the young kid only backed away from me even more. I wanted to give it some of my blood that had the power to even resurrect a dead body. But there was no chance that I would injure myself here and now. I was not even able to give it to him after all. Then there was the healing power of my tears. Again not possible to give it to the small kid and so I decided to use my healing breath.
Once I set my mind on it, I deeply breathed in and began breathe out the air towards the small monster. After I did that I could hear him chirp happily and run around. The injury on its leg was gone.
Me: See! I am not bad!
Another terrifying screamed echoed through the valley and moved my head up towards the sky listening carefully where it comes from. Once I knew the rough direction, I quickly pushed myself of the cliff and into the air souring and flying towards that stupid idiot to save him.
The moment I arrived at the scene I saw the mother of the kid, attacking Sabnock and that angry Demon using his s on sword at the beast. I quickly flew down and grabbed Sabnock by his wings. Once scream of me petrified both of them. I came in so quickly that he didn't even know what was happening until I through him into the air and teleported him into the parallel valley.
Next thing I did was land in front of the leader of the leader of the valley and bow to her as an apology before turning back to human. It made things a lot easier since no one knew the ancient language of the royal black bloodline.
Me: I am sorry he bother you and trespassed into your domain. I know that you meant him no harm. All you did was defend your injured child.
Leader: GRRRRR!!
Me: Please don't be angry at me. All I did was heal his injured leg. You may return back to him immediately.
Leader Child: Chirp. Chirp!
The moment I said that I could hear some chirping coming from behind me.
Me: I am glad to see that you are all better now.
Leader: HMPF!
Me: No problem!
Leader: ROAR!
Me: There is actually one thing you could do.
And this was how I asked the leader of the valley to carry me to the finish line. Thanks to that and me teleporting Sabnock away from safety, I was not the last one. Since Kalego-sensei knew what I was, I wasn't also punished for what I did.
Not only that but everyone beside me pulled a badge out of the owls pocket. I needed to be special and pull out a ring.

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.

Hope
There were 2 options: Fight the same war for countless more aeons. Shatter the Betrayer's undead legions time and time again until all was ground to dust. Because the endless legions truly never end. A hair's breath of ground in a century is enough if the war takes all of eternity. Or to choose Hope. To cast away his memories, his power, his very life. To wager everything on a chance to prevent their eventual end or to perish trying. Because if he were to return it would be with the power necessary to finally slay what remains of the Betrayer. Of the last Aspect. Only then would all things be right. And so, he chose the latter. Expect:Weak to strong quick-ish.Powerful MC reincarnates, gradually starts regaining memories.MC that is an actual character not a plot device.My original unique magic system discovered along with the MC.My original setting with mythos that have both been living rent free in my head for actual years.Opening arc will be less fast than the following story. Good writing (I think) and grammar. Upload schedulle: 2 chapters a week of 3-4k words each. I want to upscale to 3 in the future. Meant to be read in RR dark mode. For those coming here from my other stories, this is indeed a reimagining of my older story, CotM. I say reimagining because I have changed so much it cannot be called just a rewrite. Among the major changes, MC is fundamentally different in personality and background, I have actually planned the story out and changed it almost completely and I have adjusted my mythos so it no longer has as many holes as swiss cheese.
