Born of the Evil Dragon is set in a low-magic world. The story unfolds in a once-great empire that has crumbled under its own weight—its power, splintered by internal corruption, external invasions, and a cataclysmic coup. At the heart of this world is Evius Draconis, a young man with a mysterious past, raised not by the fallen human royal family but by a mercantile elven family. His upbringing was shaped by the wisdom and ancient traditions of the elves, rather than the decadence of imperial royalty. While his ties to the empire are deep and complicated, Evius himself stands apart, forged by a different heritage. The story begins with the coup orchestrated by Casso Isetus, the leader of the Black Dragon Syndicate, who overthrows the emperor Edric Valedraco. Under the guise of saving the nation, Casso swiftly gains control of the palace and the empire, but his true motives soon become clear: power for its own sake. He betrays the emperor, murders the empress Aurelia Valedarco and the crown prince Dorian Valedarco, and installs himself as the ruler of the land. With the fall of the imperial family, the nation plunges into chaos, its people suffering under Casso’s brutal rule. Amidst this upheaval, Evius emerges as a figure of resistance. Though not of royal blood, he possesses the strategic brilliance and leadership qualities instilled in him by his elven guardians. With a small band of loyal allies, he embarks on a perilous journey to reclaim the empire, fighting not only against Casso's forces but against the very spirit of the empire’s destruction. Along the way, Evius uncovers the bitter truth: he is not so different from the tyrant he fights. To revive the empire, he must face the darkness within himself—his ambition, his willingness to sacrifice, and the terrible power that awaits him. Born of the Evil Dragon is an epic tale of revival and ruin, loyalty and betrayal, hope and despair. It delves deep into the complexity of power, exploring whether one can retain their humanity when faced with the temptations of vengeance and ambition. It is a story about the price of restoring a broken world, and the personal sacrifices required to achieve something greater than oneself.

I still have no clue as to why I thought this would be a good idea, But just so you know, I didn't wake up one day and suddenly decide to make a choice that would undoubtedly disrupt the balance of nature. It's not like I purposely made up my mind to complete step one in a plan that could end all life on earth as we know it, But that's what happened, anyway. Now, as I lay on the ground and look up at the dark night sky, I realize... I messed up.

The day of abandonment. Monsters roamed the lands as some sort of predators, criminals were coming from nowhere and broke all that is lawful, the concept of reality was slowly becoming a suggestion...and yet, despite all odds...they adapted. the year in the messed up callander is 2093, and what was left of earth has evolved into some weird insanity that's functional despite what happaned. People live in cities and countries in a world that's gone mad, where super heroes are now a normal Monday, new job opportunities have arrived, and trail chambers, otherwise known as dungeons, spreaded like wildfire to test people of all kinds. In such a bizarre plane of existence, can our young lead survive the trails ahead of him, and make something great of himself? Maybe even saving existance itself from collapse.

I, a Chinese gay man. I'll share my interesting travel stories in the last decade with you.

There's a bunch of killing and gruesome descriptions though. The novel is a bit slow in the first chapters, but after that, it picks up and gets significantly better. Also, the power system is similar to BotDS, but I've asked the author for permission to use it. It's also heavily inspired my writing, but the beginning is where its most prevalent.

I wont wrote any plot here rn simply cus i don’t know what i'll write. And the r18 stuff will be later (if ever) Maybe 120~ if i write that much. It'll be about a guy that have something deep within him, waiting for the time to rise.
