A tyrant with a blood-crazed fetish that would often lead to meaningless wars and countless death, he is the king of the beasts. He is the thirtieth emperor of the Bezarius Empire, the young prodigy, Emperor Hyan Rezenia Bezarius. He was known to be the most beautiful being in the empire with his silver locks that it would seem as if all the treasures of the empire reflected upon his long straight hair, cerulean eyes that could be compared to the glistening northern sea, paired with his ethereal features that even the priests of the Great Temple would compare his looks to the Goddess Rhea. Everyone failed to recognize the psychotic glint in his eyes. Everyone got fooled and died. Though born as a bastard among the eight princes of the empire, he rose to the peak even with the disadvantage amidst the power struggles between the eight heirs. With no faction to side him and no maternal support to lean on, the bastard fourth prince, along with his trusted aide, struggled for many seasons. Like a predator, he patiently waited to bear his canines behind his privileged brothers. He bowed his head and turned a blind eye even after the seventh consort, Lady Amina Tesero of the Nomadic tribe of the south. Lady Amina Tesoro was the seventh consort of the twenty-ninth emperor of the Bezarius Empire. She became the twenty-ninth emperor’s favorite because of her calm demeanor and astounding beauty that could compete with the bastard fourth prince’s elegance. She also caught the attention of the predatory fourth prince. Her kindness penetrated the walls protecting Prince Hyan’s heart, rendering him immobile under her charms. His confession to Lady Amina Tesoro marked his twisted journey to being the emperor, and when he finally became one, he lost his most important one. The thirtieth emperor lost his love. He lost the ability to feel any ounce of emotion. And with every emperor comes an heir. To mock his officials, Emperor Hyan Rezenia Bezarius took the ugliest lady of the empire as his wife. Lady Ivynia Ilorde Rosehil is the laughingstock of high society. With half of her face covered with dragon scales, the higher echelon dubbed Lady Ivynia as the beast among the beautiful Rosehil sisters. Her rare charcoal-colored hair and amber eyes that reflected the setting sun as if its light remained in her eyes did not compensate for her dragon scales. Lady Ivynia Ilorde Rosehil suffered ever since birth but suffered more during her reign as the empress. Watching her husband, whom she came to love, wallow in self-pity as he mourned for his lost love. While making sure that the noble faction and the aristocratic faction would not attack them underhandedly, Empress Ivynia Ilorde Bezarius suffered the greatest among anyone in the empire. And when the continent finally mobilized to take their revenge against the mad king, the empress became the widow who fought in loneliness for her unborn child, only to end up dying. And where does this bullshit crazy story take me? Oh yeah, I have become the thirtieth empress of the Bezarius Empire. And I will die again when the male protagonist of this tragic shit appears. Do I need to mention that I am inside the Netflix Series entitled “The Serenade of Death”? Of all the Netflix Series I binge-watched, do I have to be reincarnated inside the R-rated one that I loathe to the bones?

Daniel traveled to a different world and became the Demon God and the enemy of the world. Fortunately, he obtained the soul summoning skill at the beginning and was able to summon human players on the earth as believers! Therefore, Daniel launched a game called Metaverse on the earth, attracting a large number of players as his believers. Human players thought they were playing a game and they wouldn't die. They did all kinds of crazy things and felt that this game was very real. As a result, the style of the different world suddenly changed.

Why don't your archers have a Barrett M82A1? An extreme sports enthusiast said, "The team that intends to go to the Spine of the World is forming a team. Complete skydive for a chance to earn the title of Dragon Trainer!" The expert in reclaiming wasteland said, "The land reclamation in the north meets the Titans. Request the first echelon to come." The aboriginals of the different world were all flustered! The Red Dragon Queen said, "What? The believers of the Demon God have brought my ancestor back to life?" The mother of Titans said, "What? The believers of the Demon God want to make me a battle fortress?" The human Saint said, "Please give me an answer! The battleship of the Demon God has arrived at my house. He said that he wanted to kill me! What should I do? Can someone help me? The situation is urgent!"

Mark, short for Marcus, is a boy- age 16 -of average talent. He had no hope of ever becoming something great or walking among the higher echelon of the world. He was destined to be either cannon fodder in a war somewhere or an average worker in and out. He had one redeeming quality, his tenacity, his unbridled passion for magic combat, however, it seemed that in this age it's talent decides the life of each and every one of us. This is how it seemed until one fortunate day when Mark got struck by lightning... well, maybe at the time it may not have seemed as if it was fortunate but after... well, he received a system of great potential. ____________________ A simple generic story, helps me write if I work around stereotypes.
