"Submit, or die." Cassius spread his wings, blotting out the sun, and gazed down at the trembling humans, elves, and dwarves below, saying thus. ...... It is a story about a Red Dragon with a player template conquering, ruling, and transforming an alternate world. (Pseudo of DnD, The Fourth Calamity, Red Dragon)

"It was an ordinary world until the year 2067, when a boulder-sized asteroid was spotted by astronomers heading into the Earth’s atmosphere. "They determined its point of impact to be the Atlantic Ocean and, knowing there wouldn’t be any lives at stake, left it be. "Hence, it crashed without any interference, and without any civilian knowing about its existence. "Its momentum, not being retarded by fluid friction, allowed it to penetrate the ocean floor, making its way to the Earth’s core. "That’s when it all began; the unknown properties of the meteorite caused it to fuse with the Earth’s core, changing the entire ecosystem of the Earth as we know it. "It took five days for its fusion to complete, and those five days were known as the ‘beginning of the plague.’ "The Earth, which was filled with life, became a horror fantasy after these days; the Earth was left with only 40 percent of water. "The once flooded 30 percent now filled with unworldly creatures who feast on the terrestrial ones. "The skies and water became polluted with mystical essences which gave humans supernatural abilities that enhanced a person’s character to the fullest, and I, a once psycho, am the strongest. “This is the story of how I might have saved the world from this catastrophe or how I might have destroyed it.”

"The heavenly dog ​​rises from the earth and falls into the sunset. The sky is as red as blood, and the lucky star retreats into nothingness. In the vastness, a man stumbles forward, paving the way with difficulty, and blood is spilled with every step. Only a stalk of chrysanthemum withers behind him." This is a prophecy that no one can interpret, but some people say that this is my fate. Others say that the ritual officials are involved in yin and yang, are good at tombs, and cover up the secrets of heaven. The nobles of ancient times were all buried in their hands to protect future generations. In the end, they did not die well, and I could not escape it. But I don't accept it...

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Everything in this story has a purpose, nothing is random. If something feels 'forced' it's meant to be, ask why and I guarantee you will enjoy the novel more. ------------------- 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. Even if.. that was never the case... - There is mild gore, and profanity is 'censored' toward the beginning, but not later in the story. - Tags: Action, Discovery, Adventure, Fantasy, Sci-fi Sub Tags: Reincarnation, Magic, Non-Human Lead, (Extremely) OP Protagonist, Mystery - New Chapter twice a week, on Monday and Friday at 1:30 PM EST!

Princess Azalea's life is shattered when Zaydon, the man she loves—a fierce and protective dragon shifter—makes a devastating choice. Bound by the ancient and cruel Dragon’s Bond, a spell that shackles a dragon to a princess at the cost of their own life, Zaydon seals their fates in a desperate attempt to protect Azalea from a looming, unnamed danger. The bond is one rooted in a barbaric tradition that demands the dragon’s death to prove the suitor’s worthiness to rule. This forces Azalea to confront the horrifying reality of Zaydon’s sacrifice. Once a source of safety and love, his actions now threaten to strip Azalea of everything she holds dear. Torn between her unrelenting love for Zaydon and the betrayal of his choice, Azalea spirals into heartbreak and fury. As the weight of the bond looms over them, she must grapple with the cost of his decision and the role she plays in this cruel fate. Her once steadfast trust is replaced by raw anger and sorrow as she searches for a way to save him—or to sever their bond forever. But danger brews beyond the walls of the castle.

Caught between duty, love, and revenge, Azalea must summon her strength to defy a destiny written in blood and forge her own path forward—before it’s too late.
