AZI: Burial of a Selfish Lunatic

Full Title, AZI: The History Shattering Burial of a Selfish Lunatic, Who Walked through Reincarnation for Two-Trillion Years Volumes 1-3 Synopsis: “Who?” Holding a lone gourd in hand the young man raises it to the Heavens with a single question. “Who wishes to accompany me? To stay by my side for an eternity, and to walk through the mountains, and seas?” May container spoilers below Volume 4 Synopsis: Weapon spirits, such is the nature of every single Sinner within the Leng Bing Realm. In other words, all of them are but tools, and a tool… “A tool has no right to choose their owner, and what a tool does is decided by their owner.” “…Cruel, how very cruel the laws of this world are. Even upon death, a soul may not rest.” Volume 5 Synopsis: “Surnamed Ye, if you had a choice between being a hero or a demon lord, which would you choose? Naturally, you can also choose to be a villager A or B if you wanted to.” “What kind of question is that? Hmm.” Contemplating for a bit, Ye Chen answers— “I guess, the hero? Since he always wins in the end?” “Hero, is it?” “And you, surnamed Long?” “I think, the role of the hero—is a role that should only be played by a masochist.” “The hell? Is this entire question supposed to be a way to diss me?” “The fate of a hero is to suffer. They’re constantly being pushed left and right. …While everyone else drowns in a sea of despair, a hero must stand their ground, and step forward—to guide the deadbeats along. They must become the shining beacon of hope that others may follow—towards a future, where they may survive. Tell me then, if a hero isn’t a masochist, then what are they?” The world is a game board, those who control the game board, and the game itself… What are they? Volume 6 Synopsis: “A lunatic near death has three options. One, they can choose to pass away peacefully. Two, they can choose to spend the rest of their remaining life to find a solution that will let them live. Three, they can drag an entire world down as a part of their burial.” ……… “The longer you live for, and the more you experience, the less you care about the things around you. Maybe, I’m just someone who has reached that point?” ……… “You’re right in saying that even if this world goes up into flames, I’d still be drinking away at my leisure. Why bother to care for a world that is completely foreign to me? The people who I had cared for, they aren’t here; hence, I see very little purpose in getting myself invested into this environment.” ……… The 46th prince of the Hong Xiao Empire was born between the emperor and the 114th concubine. He was born on a moonlit night, and yet, since his eyes were blind, his majesty—the emperor decided to name him Bujian Yue. “Did you know—that the more fearful a prey is, the tastier it is? At least to me, since I enjoy chewing on my food to savor the flavor.” “…?” Enlarging its stature, the black serpent abruptly snaps its head forward, and swallows the palace maid whole. Leaving a bite mark on the ground, the black serpent begins to chew, as the sound of meat and bones being pulverized comes from its maw. And eventually, the black serpent swallows.

Rebirth: Into The Dragon Realm

In the heavenly realm, the immortal dragon after cultivating for half of time, hit a bottleneck that lasted the age of a hundred universes. Frustrated with his stagnation, the dragon accused the heavenly hierarchy of concealing cultivation techniques from the attendants of the heavenly court in order to maintain their control over the path of reincarnation. Proactive and cunning, the dragon devised the soul refinement process, a dark art that allowed the caster to view the entire life of a soul—not for judgment but to absorb its inspiration, knowledge, and skills, at the cost of destroying the soul in the process. The dragon, ever scheming, shared this forbidden technique with the heavenly court, causing its users to grow rapidly in power. This led to chaos within the hierarchy of the heavenly realm, spiraling it into confusion and upheaval. Eventually, the dragon staged a coup, aiming to change the fate of all souls within the river of time. During the height of the war, however, the dragon mysteriously disappeared from the heavenly realm, only to reappear in a secret realm of its own creation. Now, the immortal dragon has created pocket dimensions, concealed from the view of deity beings and the path of reincarnation. In these hidden realms, the dragon devours the souls of all who inhabit them upon their death, absorbing their knowledge and skills in a quest to transcend its limitations and ascend back to the deity realm. The dragon's empire spans multiple dimensional worlds, where civilizations rise and fall under its rule as it seeks a way to return to the heavenly realm with unprecedented power. Niu, a world-renowned 21st-century physicist, dies in a particle accelerator explosion while searching for the God particle. He is now the only being to have ever experienced reincarnation and hopes to share this gift with the inhabitants of the dragon realm because if he dies here, earth will be next on the dragon's list.

The emperor of Shadows (dropped)

Hello ladies and gentlemen This is my first time writing a novel so if it's below 100 chapter then I am sorry Here is synopsis - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a world scarred by the cataclysmic arrival of otherworldly monsters, humanity's survival hangs by a thread. Among the remnants of a once-thriving civilization, a seemingly ordinary young man named Reynold Scotus, with a latent affinity for darkness, has endured a life marked by torment and despair. Born into a world forever altered by the arrival of these monstrous beings, Reynold grows up as a target for bullies who taunt him for his unique but misunderstood powers. But his life takes a tragic turn when an accident claims the lives of his beloved mother, Grace, and his younger sister, Sera, who suffers from mana bottleneck dysfunction—a condition rendering her unable to harness mana, a precious resource in this harsh new world. As Reynold grapples with the loss of his family, he encounters the enigmatic hero known as the Fire Knight, who holds the power of fire manipulation. However, this hero's facade of righteousness crumbles when he reveals his true nature, callously dismissing Reynold's family's tragic fate as a consequence of his own recklessness. Left battered and broken, Reynold undergoes a transformation from a powerless and defeated youth into a formidable force known as "The Emperor of Shadows." Driven by an unquenchable thirst for vengeance against the corrupt hero and those like him, Reynold embarks on a perilous journey to confront the darkness that has consumed his world. As Reynold's power grows, he navigates treacherous dungeons, faces deadly adversaries, and unearths the secrets of his own abilities. With each step, he edges closer to the heart of the corruption that plagues his world, battling not only the monsters that threaten humanity but also the darkness that dwells within himself. "The Emperor of Shadows" is a tale of redemption, vengeance, and the enduring strength of the human spirit. As Reynold Scotus becomes a symbol of hope and justice in a world teetering on the brink of annihilation, he will confront the most formidable adversary of all—the shadows that lie within. Will Reynold's quest for vengeance lead him to the redemption he seeks, or will he succumb to the very darkness he battles against? In a world where heroes have fallen and shadows loom large, the fate of humanity rests in the hands of "The Emperor of Shadows."

Light Novel X Mangaka

"Let me colour your world with these words..." Yuki Leigh, your average teenage girl, has a knack for writing stories. She goes to Japan, together with her best friend, Roxanne. They enrol themselves in the International Japanese School to chase their dreams. Leigh also becomes famous because of her works, making a title of her known as the Queen of Gores or The Lady in Blood. But nobody knows who exactly this “Yuki”-her pen name is since she never reveals her face in public. Those quiet days instantly change when Yuki browses the internet and sees a manga adaptation of her light novel series under the artist name “Nick”, who she assumes is a student going to the same school, and she is right! She refuses anyone to adapt her story, given that these written texts hold something dear inside her heart. It is the only source of happiness Yuki has when she feels alone inside her room. Upon noticing the positive feedback of the manga, Yuki would let Nickson pass this chance only if he transfers a share of his earnings to poverty or charity. That is all Yuki wants to hear. They sit next to each other and not uttering a single word despite being classmates inside the room. Everything is going swimmingly to the two, not until the student council elections show up. They want to claim the prize of “not attending any lecture in class” following their jobs as mangaka and author. Yuki then meets Nickson’s relatives, who are not on good terms. She thinks that joining their affairs would make her and Nickson’s situation worse. But her emotions change when Yuki notices Nickson’s sudden shift of mood during examinations or in meetings. He is neglecting his work in the student council, grabbing the attention of the school and the two former student council officers. Eventually, she helps Nickson in her own way. Because of Yuki’s sudden interruption in his life, Nickson finally takes an interest in this light novel author. There are a lot of things going on as well! The three join a club, family problems, and relationship status they need to work out. The club advisor, Benjamin Tsai, gives the author and the artist tips on creating masterpieces of their works. He also becomes their mentor when they feel stuck in a bottleneck. Benjamin is an avid fan of both Nickson and Yuki, so he knows everything about them, including their styles. Along the way, they meet some friends and make a group together to prepare themselves for the university. If they want to pursue their passion, they need to do well for the upcoming entrance exams. Everything becomes serious and dull, considering they need to plan for their future jobs and roles. Yuki expresses her doubts about becoming a full-pledge light novel author, knowing that it will be a risky job for her to make money. Leigh admits she was lucky enough to win the competition before, but what will she do right now that she is losing her popularity as an author? This novel is a rollercoaster of happiness, sorrow, and other emotions from the characters. Every reader will unravel their stories one volume at a time, while the two, Yuki and Nickson, commit themselves as romantic couples soon. The story doesn’t need to be fast paced or slow since they will encounter problems and solve them one at a time. ______________________________________________ I referenced the characters to the people I know. But keep in mind that I separate their lives and create fictional events on my own. I don’t have any opinions of what the character will do since the story explains everything in the present tense. All of them will have their characteristics, strengths and weaknesses. Huge thanks to these awesome people who are supporting this book! Especially to @Snowphira. She is the artist/illustrator of this novel. If you want to see Nickson’s illustrations, I will post them inside the first few chapters in the comment section! Cheers, and have a wonderful life, everyone! Book Cover not mine.
