Nightmare Dragon

Waking up in a shattered world where the sky bleeds red and the ground whispers forgotten names, he has no memories, no past—only the certainty that something is terribly wrong. The air is thick with the scent of decay, and in the distance, figures that should not exist twitch and convulse, waiting. Survival is not guaranteed. This place follows no laws but its own. The weak are devoured, the strong become prey to something worse. Here, to exist is to struggle against the inevitable. But when an ancient, half-broken throne calls his name, and a power unlike any other stirs beneath his skin, the truth becomes clear— This world has not forgotten him. It has been waiting. But so have they. And they do not intend to let him rise.

This red dragon came from the vast wilderness, coveting all the powers of the world. He has held countless titles: Mountain Fury, Purgatorial Calamity, Red Emperor, Ember Dragon… The world trembles under the shadow of the great dragon. He ignited the surge of the magical industrial revolution. In the empire he established, wyverns roar, cannon fire resounds, steel behemoths appear in the sky and on the earth, and disasters from other worlds run rampant. “Submit, or die.” Cassius spread his sky-shading wings, looking down upon the trembling humans, elves, and dwarves beneath him, and spoke thus. ……… A story of a red dragon with a built-in player template conquering, ruling, and transforming another world. (Pseudo D&D, Fourth Catastrophe, Red Dragon)

Waking up in the middle of a dream, a strange door appears in the house... Behind each door lies a different, unfamiliar world.

The latter was almost in tears as he listened, "If we die here, our entire family will bleed to death upside down?" "That's right." "Then why don't you seem that scared?" The fat man widened his eyes. Jiang Cheng turned his head and said in a very serious tone, "Because I'm an orphan." --- You can support me and read ahead at my Pa treon at Pa treon.com/CinderTL

When the world was shattered by the arrival of the Nightmare Realms, humanity was forced into a desperate fight for survival. Monsters lurked in the darkness, and the only ones who could resist them were the Chosen—those marked by the Nightmare itself and granted strange, unpredictable powers. Nate never wanted to be one of them. Thrown into an unfamiliar world of horrors, betrayals, and relentless battles, he must fight to endure. But the power he was given is not a blessing—it is a curse, one that whispers in his mind and threatens to consume him from within. To survive, he must uncover the truth behind the Nightmare Realms, the reason for their existence… and the dark secret buried within himself. Because in this world, death is not the worst fate. And the Last Nightmare is only beginning.
