Waking The Dragon

The world no longer needs heroes. In this futuristic utopia, technology has advanced beyond human limits, crime is controlled, and those with extraordinary powers are exterminated on sight. Society believes heroes are chaotic relics of the past, and the government ensures they stay buried. Lucian Graves is a man of science—an aerospace researcher respected for his genius. Handsome, intelligent, and living in the golden age of technology, he has everything a man could ask for. But beneath his perfect life, shadows lurk. Since childhood, Lucian has been haunted by visions of another life—a past where he fought as a superpowered soldier against demonic invaders. A past where he had no family, no love, only war. He thought those memories were just echoes of a forgotten era. He thought his past had nothing to do with this world. Until the day his younger brother is taken from him. When Lucian unleashes his hidden power to save his family, he is exposed to a world that hates and fears what he is. But as he digs deeper, he uncovers a horrifying truth—the very demons he once fought are not gone. They rule this world, disguised as its leaders. They have been feeding off humanity, and society is too blind to see it. And worse still… Lucian discovers that the creator of these demons was none other than his past self. Now, hunted as a villain, betrayed by the one he trusted most, and torn between vengeance and redemption, Lucian must decide: Will he break the cycle and fight for humanity’s future? Or will he become the very nightmare the world fears? The last hero has awakened, but so has his curse. The war is not over. It never was.

Synopsis: This is the story of a young man who was reincarnated as a dragon with a near-insatiable curiosity. Initially sparked by questioning his own reincarnation, he quickly gets lost in the endless world of magic, using his deep understanding of advanced sciences to learn the laws and properties of a new type of energy known as mana. However, soon enough, the table would flip, and he would begin using that very same energy to expand his knowledge of science, to the point that he would begin questioning his own understanding of the world. Although not his original intention, with the combination of his intelligence, expanding curiosity, and the 'miracles' that occurred to allow for his existence, he quickly found himself climbing the mountain of strength as if it were a small hill before eventually climbing to a point where it seemed as if he himself was the peak itself.
