Because of the many misconceptions linked to that status, he is now even more scorned and hated than he was in his previous life. Additionally, he is now in a girl's body—something he finds harder to adapts to than he would have thought at first. Thankfully, he soon find himself the ability to see "the blue", an ability allowing him to pull off critical hits at will. Will this ability allow him to make his way into this strange new world and prevent the ashes of war with demons to reinites themselves? Only the future can tell. ––– W.N : Only the future, huh ? XD Well, I am the author, the one who wrote this thing and this really formulaïc synopsis. The story, I hope, is anything but that, but you will be the judge there. Also, if subjects like suicide and depression makes you feel uncomfortable, maybe you shouldn't read this. The protagonist is not written to be the most positive person in the world and thr world is equally bleak. Expect a lot of violence as I think it somewhat make sense in a world obeying those rules. Also again, I will use game's terminologies without necessarily explaining them in details. Most explanations will be there to highlight how this universe's game mechanics differ from the usual ones. Will the hero/heroine, be OP ? Dunno. I would rather not and their ability isn't so rare to be fair. I have no idea if the main character should be considered a male or a female which is perfect. That's why it a male-lead book with the yuri (girl's love) tag. Now then, I only intended this to be a warning but I ended up rambling. Thank you for reading up until this point and I hope you will enjoy the book. X-)

When Lu Huang woke up as Lidia—the villainess of a cringe-worthy romance novel—she was determined not to let the story play out like the dumpster fire it was written to be. Nope. Dying at the hands of the Alpha King after being falsely accused, publicly humiliated, and manipulated into madness? Yeah, that’s not on her to-do list. Armed with a sharp tongue that could flay egos, the street smarts of a broke college grad, and the petty audacity of someone with nothing left to lose, Lidia decides she was ripping up the script. Holier-than-thou saintesses? Screw ’em. Self-righteous alphas? They can eat dirt. If this world insists on casting her as the villain, she’s going to own it—on her terms. One chaotic scheme at a time, Lidia’s ready to rewrite her fate—and if she has to break a few rules (and maybe some noses) to do it, so be it. Villainesses don’t play nice, and Lidia is just getting started.

The story about Princess Moonlight that comes to earth! Rembulan or Lunaria, she's the supreme queen ruler of the lunar planet. Her dominion stretched across all kingdoms of the moon, including the mighty Arkei Kingdom—the greatest and strongest of the celestial realms, commanded by her will alone. Lunaria was a sacred sovereign, revered by kings and commonfolk alike, for her divine blessings allowed their civilizations to thrive. She was the immortal embodiment, destined never to perish… unless she unleashed her greatest power. In the year 922 of Lunarism (2100 AD on Earth), war ravaged the moon's kingdoms. Chaos reigned. Everything lay in ruins, kings were slaughtered, and the scramble for power blinded all to reason. Overwhelmed by grief and compassion, Lunaria chose to relinquish that power to shield her people from the savagery of power-hungry warriors and tyrants. She bore this burden alone, for she was a princess of purity and grace, one who abhorred the radicals clawing at her realm's foundations. When she activated her primordial force, her own kingdom—the Moonlight Kingdom—became a sanctuary, the sole survivor of the cataclysm, shielded by an ethereal barrier born of her sacrifice. Yet, in the aftermath, stripped of her power and vulnerable, Lunaria was sent to Earth by Ambalan, her elder brother, who vowed to continue safeguarding their people. Ambalan could not bear to see his sister perish, especially now that she no longer possessed the strength to shield even herself. Thus, the moon's luminous queen fell to the mortal world—a radiant soul exiled, her legacy etched in starlight and sorrow. Yogy 2025®

The entire Fairy Realm was adorned with his portraits and statues, and even the architecture bore his visage. Anything that did not mirror his image was met with disdain. Driven by his narcissism, one fateful day a dream came to him—a vision of the grandest and most beautiful statue ever witnessed, one to rival the heavens themselves.

The colossal statue, crafted from Pure Mythril, a substance so luminous it was said to unmake a soul, shone with an intensity both mesmerizing and ominous. …to be continued.

Long before civilizations took root and mortals tread the planes of existence, there was a world where beasts reigned supreme—a realm in turmoil. At the apex of this wild hierarchy stood the dragons, beings of immense majesty, boundless intellect, and unmatched magical might. In the heart of this ancient age, a young dragon—barely a century old, an adolescent by his kind’s standards—embarks on a journey to find his place in a world where survival is the only law. Blessed with the rare ability to wield the Ancient Dragon Tongue—the first magic, and the foundation for all that would follow—this young dragon must navigate a turbulent society fraught with rivalries and alliances among his own kin. Beyond the dragons, greater threats loom: the Gods, beings of pure energy who embody the soul, and the Titans, colossal entities of mind and matter, vast as the planets themselves. As these three forces collide, the delicate balance of their existence is pushed to its breaking point, sparking conflicts that threaten to consume everything. Through centuries of trials, battles, and revelations, the young dragon rises from an unsure hatchling to a unifying figure among his kind. Yet, with influence comes peril. As his magic grows, so too does the attention of ancient forces that see him as either a threat to extinguish or a weapon to wield. The arrival of fragile, untested mortals on the scene forces a critical choice: to nurture humanity’s burgeoning potential for magic, guiding them as allies, or to protect the secrets of the Ancient Dragon Tongue, keeping its power sacred to dragons alone. Draconis Genesis: The Dawn of Magic is a sweeping saga spanning eons, an exploration of power, legacy, and the ties that bind. It weaves a tale of dragons, Gods, and Titans locked in an epic struggle that births the very essence of magic itself. In a world where beasts dominate the land, celestial entities rule the heavens, and Titans define reality, one dragon’s decisions will shape the destiny of creation.
