"She was a demon to begin with, how could she possibly be corrupted by encountering me, a human? Critics always talk about ludicrous things." In 1798, during an interview with the press, Cardinal Bishop Lanci was asked about his past with the exiled last princess of the Demon Race, as well as recent signs of the resurrection of the demons. He stated: "I have made too many efforts to defend world peace, I am quite sure, there is absolutely no possibility for the Demon Race to revive under her leadership." ...... In the winter of 1802, the revival of the Demon Race succeeded. [Based on the above information, please indicate who is the main culprit leading to the revival of the Demon Race, and explain why it is Lanci.

Hi some of yall might recognize the cover, this is the redo of my old novel that I decided to stopped writing, I felt horrible for months after disappearing. Now I decided to continue and finish it. I hope my old readers come and find this book again. Below is the synopsis. A story of a boy name Vesper Nine who lives in a magical medieval world, dreaming of becoming a dragon knight to protect the land of Astafel from abyssal creatures and wicked dragons but after awakening his true power, the reality between worlds began to collapse. What kind of power does this boy hold to be able to bring such chaos?

In a post-apocalyptic world, you'll find four main types of people. Those who fight with all their might are "the hunters." The ones who leech and exploit others are "the pests." The predators, who see everyone as prey. And lastly, we have "the survivors," the resilient ones who never give up. Everyone often fits into one category, but it's hard to determine which one Maya falls into. She's not exactly a fighter, considering leaving her room was a chore even before the apocalypse. A predator? No way—she's always been a pushover. You might think she's a survivor, but that's laughable. She'd rather die from starvation than resort to scavenging. So, how should we categorize her? leeche? Nope. Perhaps a new category is needed: "The Lost"—those struggling to find their place in a shattered world."

Jackson was a normal high schooler until one day on his way to school he was caught in the crossfire of a gunfight and died due to his injuries in the hospital. When he opened his eyes he found himself in a grand library that went on further than he could tell. After some time wandering around he came across a man who introduced himself as the primordial spirit of time, stories and knowledge, Brakos. Brakos explained that the multiverse was real, and he loved to watch people create grand things with their imaginations, write their own stories, and go on grand adventures. When he watched Jackson, he saw the potential he possessed. He was ecstatic but was upset when Jackson was shot and made arrangements for his soul to come to him when Jackson died. Jackson, still processing what Brakos is saying asks “What is going to happen to me now?” Brakos replies “Well that is up to you. I am giving you the chance to essentially become an Iseki character in any world of your choosing.” Jackson looked shocked hearing about this and took a minute to process everything again with Brakos patiently smiling at him. “Ok, but I have a few questions first.” Jackson suddenly said Brakos replied with a smile. “Sure, I will answer them to the best of my ability.” for a while, Jackson asked question after question with Brakos answering them. After a few hours of this, Jackson decided to think about what he wanted for this and after some time said something that Brakos had never expected. “Brakos I want to be reincarnated in a world with magic. In that world, I want to become the primogenitor (Primogenitors are creators/first of a race. Like Adam and Eve are the first humans in the bible) of a race I can call my own. One I can create and give power to. To be the leader of a people I can call my own and one I can work to defend and help grow.” Brakos stood there wide-eyed and speechless, trying to make sure that he heard that right. Then He looked at Jackson and smiled thinking ‘This kid is smart, I may have finally found someone who can surpass even my expectations.’ He laughed “Hahaha. Ok if that is what you wish I know just the world to send you to but I must warn you. Just becoming a Primogenitor is a dangerous thing there and the race you create will depend on how you go about it and you may not like what you create. Not to mention that this world also has other primogenitors and they may try to kill you once they realize what you are and lay claim to what you have created.” Jackson smiled and said ”That’s fine I already have a plan on how I will create the race and how to protect myself. I just need your help in fine-tuning it as I don't know how it would work or even if it's possible.” Jackson proceeds to explain his plan and Brakos can't help but be amazed at the creativity of this human child. “Ok, I understand but I do have one question. What shall be the name for this race that you create?’ Jackson smiled and spoke, “This race shall be known as the Draconians." _____________ TLDR Jackson is a person that reincarnates into another world as a primogenitor (they are creators/first of a race like Adam and Eve are the first humans in the bible) and brings forth a new race called the Draconians. A special type of dragon. To create this race he gains a special book that can alter reality and allow but to change parts of his race. To most, it will look like he is taking notes about an existing race but in reality, he is changing the race itself. Follow Jack as he learns about the world he lives in now as he goes to a magic school, gains the powers of spirits and even becomes the creator of a brand new race that can fight against the gods themselves. _____________ Not a harem or romance novel. Will be a BL eventually but will not be the focus of the story. Just want to build up the world right now.
