Gambit Dragon

original author- Selena organza Jiho, a seemingly ordinary young man from South Korea, discovers a mysterious power that changes the course of his life forever. Born with an innate ability of infinite luck, Jiho's life should be a breeze. However, there's a catch—he can only buy items from a System Shop existing inside his mind, and his only abilities are summoning and taming creatures. With the world believing he’s weak, as he can’t wield weapons or fight directly, Jiho’s true potential is still hidden. When a strange glitch gives him infinite tokens to spend at the System Shop, Jiho begins purchasing powerful summoning items, unleashing creatures of incredible power. He summons a legendary commander’s sword, a full set of armor, and 100 max-level goblins capable of evolving when named. But that’s just the beginning—Jiho unlocks a mysterious subspace, a personal dimension where he can store and train his summoned creatures. As he continues to grow stronger, Jiho’s abilities begin to draw attention, both from allies and enemies alike. Each new achievement he unlocks, each new creature he summons, pushes him closer to becoming a force to be reckoned with. But the more powerful Jiho gets, the greater the challenges ahead. Can his luck, his creatures, and the mysterious abilities of the System Shop be enough to help him conquer the world and prove that even the most underestimated individual can rise to unimaginable heights?

The vast earth is shrouded in mystery, and the future hangs on the brink of change. Amid the swirling chaos, dragons and serpents rise—who will claim the mantle of the True Dragon, and who will fade as a mere serpent? Or perhaps, beneath the heavens, could all living beings have the potential to ascend as dragons? The imperial court, the martial sects of the jianghu, immortal cultivators beyond the mortal world, ancient noble clans, barbarian tribes, demon gods, spirit races, and the forgotten arts of primordial witchcraft—countless powers collide, their fates intertwined in an intricate web of destiny and ambition.

What makes dragons strong? It's not their power or magic, but their mind. Arrogance, greed, Iron Will, and the lack of human restraints. What would happen if you threw such a creature into human society? Would they understand humans? What does love even mean to them? This is the situation that our MC, Arad Orion found himself in. A newborn dragon bringing "Might make Right" to the humanoids, but why? Due to an abnormal condition, the mighty void dragons are on the brink of extinction. Their bodies have suddenly started rejecting their kind. Due to that, Arad's mother dropped his egg into a forest where he could hatch safely, leaving him with a fragment of her consciousness and informing him of the condition of their race. From that point, his goal became clear. To save their race by either finding a cure for their condition or going the second route of making more void dragons. But, sadly, nothing is ever that easy. Finding a cure is almost impossible. Arad is still practically a newborn and cannot tap into the terrifying might of his race, and his rarity makes him a prime target for mages and scholars seeking to study the dying race. Dragons are arrogant, proud, and vicious. Yet those feeling extends to those whom they love. You who touched a dragon's love, Retribution is an insult, and life is a crime. Beware as merely existing draws the dragon's wrath. Follow Arad on his journey as he grows from a naive wyrmling to a grown dragon with enough wisdom and power to stand with the strongest of the world. *** If you liked the story, please support it with power stones and comments!

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.

In the church's prison, a man looked at his shackles. 'Little girl... is this the ending you wanted to see?' Thinking back to that resolute and pretty face in his memory and that golden hair like the blooming sunset, Lister sighed. 'If I had known that my end will be like this, I might as well have abandoned that little useless princess, opened a small tavern, and found a woman to spend my life with.' "Man, how unlucky am I..." Lister remembered that while he was playing with these little fluffy monster girls, he used to often tease a certain witch that she would accidentally end up on the stake, making her puzzled, but he didn't expect that he would be the one to go up first. "If all this could start over... I should have chosen the monster girls after all." "Oh? Really?" A cold yet teasing voice sounded beside him. As he turned his head to look, powerful magic energy gathered and swirled, and finally, a tall female figure walked out of it. She wore a tight black dress that showed off her curvy, mature figure. Lister knew her... or rather, should have known her. 'The Sinful Dragon Demon Lord, Priscilla' "Did you really mean it when you said you'd choose monster girls?" "...I wonder if the mighty Demon Lord has decided to grace me with a heart-to-heart in this cozy little prison." "As expected of the mastermind who single-handedly helped that incompetent woman to the throne. Even now you have the energy to crack jokes?" "You flatter me. I think it's quite humanistic for a Demon Lord who has children for breakfast, lunch, and dinner to chat with a dying man in prison." "Tsk, getting upset over a little teasing already?" "Sigh, alright, I don't have much time either. Let me get to the point with you. What are you still waiting for here, waiting to die?" "I don't know, maybe waiting for a female Demon Lord to come swoop in and save me?" "You know Aurola has abandoned you. What are you still hoping for?" "...So what does this have to do with the Demon Lord? We only have a very shallow cooperative relationship; I don't think it matters if I die or not." "Of course it does." Priscilla smiled and pressed the blunt end of her dragon horn against his forehead. "Because I want you, but I'm different from Aurola. What she gave you, I can give. What she couldn't give you, I can also give. Didn't you want to choose monster girls? In the Demon Capital, there are all kinds of monster girls. You can pick whichever you like." "Then, are there fluffy and warm ones?" "...I think the ones with hard scales and slender, elegant physiques are not bad either." "Ahem, I digress." "Anyway, I understand you better than you think. As long as you come with me to the Demon Capital, I will satisfy your everything within my power. As long as you promise me one thing..." "I know." Lister picked up where Priscilla left off, smiling back at her. "You want me, right?" "What a smarty~. So, you agree?" "Mm. I'll go with you." 'And come on, it's fluffy monster girls' 'I can't refuse.'

"Fear is the unknown. The uncertainty of what lies ahead, the dark spaces where shadows dance and whispers linger. For me, fear wasn’t death or failure—it was the echo of a life left behind and a new one uncertain and slippery. Reborn as a slime, I became the lowest of the low, the first target of every adventurer’s blade. Funny thing, though: it’s not the fear of being squished that keeps me up at night. It’s not knowing why I’m here or what I’m supposed to do. When a desperate escape led me to stumble upon a dead demon, everything changed. Absorbing its essence granted me abilities I barely understand, powers that came with strings attached. Now, people beg me to full-fill their dark, twisted wishes—each one revealing the depths of human greed and the cost of power. But here’s the kicker: I’m not even a real demon. And every wish brings me closer to a purpose I can’t quite grasp, yet further from the simple survival I once craved. In a world where every action is a gamble and every choice a potential disaster, my only option is to keep moving forward. After all, what’s life—slimy or otherwise—without a little uncertainty?"

Chased by the ruthless enforcers of the Dominion, she clings to a mysterious pendant—a relic her late mother entrusted to her with only one cryptic warning: “This is your light in the darkness.” But the pendant is more than a family heirloom. It hums with ancient power, pulls her toward forgotten places, and unlocks secrets long buried beneath the ruins of a broken world.

Along the way, she must form uneasy alliances, including with a rogue guide who has his own hidden motives, and navigate a treacherous world of shadowy beasts, crumbling empires, and cryptic prophecies. The fate of countless lives depends on Alexa’s ability to uncover the truth behind the Weaver’s Blade, a legendary artifact said to control the threads of destiny. But every decision comes with a price, and the line between savior and destroyer grows ever thinner. In a world where trust is a gamble and failure means annihilation, Alexa must rise from hunted prey to a force capable of confronting destiny itself.
