"Dragons rule the skies, the land, and the seas... humanity survives in the cracks, dreaming of a comeback." _______ Power comes from the beast you tame in this world, and you need to do it at the tender age of ten. Wolves, hawks, snakes, spiders, the stronger your summon, the brighter your future. Too bad for our protagonist. When everyone else summoned salamanders, eagles, or tigers, he got… Well, let’s just say the only thing lower on the food chain is dirt. Laughed at, bullied, and living as the butt of every joke, he’s not exactly winning. But giving up isn’t an option, his aging parents sold everything for his chance, and he won’t let it be for nothing. But hey, this is his story. The weakest beast tamer? Here’s the thing about being at the bottom: it teaches you how to climb. And dragons? The apex predators? Turns out they start small too, so... He’s going to tame everything, every evolutionary line. How? Turns out, his summon isn’t useless after all. Step one: survive long enough to unlock his gift. Step two: tame creatures nobody else dares to touch. Step three: become the strongest tamer the world has ever seen and laugh in the face of those who doubted him. As kingdoms crumble under greed and external threats, the weakest tamer begins his rise. Because in this world, strength isn’t just about the creature you summon; it’s about the bond you forge, the risks you take, and the will to rise when the world drags you down. Follow his path as he unlocks a potential so rare, so terrifying, it leads to dragons… Even better, every evolutionary line leads to the strongest ‘SSS Dragons’. _______ Warning: Contains world-ending dragons, questionable life choices, ridicule-fueled underdog revenge, dragon-scaled protagonist, morally questionable nobles, insane creature evolutions, over-the-top power fantasy, and enough twists to make you wonder if weakest really means luckiest. A MC who’s out to prove everyone wrong… even if it kills him. Spoiler alert: It won’t. For those who love an underdog, an over-the-top power fantasy, and a whole lot of fun, this one’s for you. If you’re looking for a more serious or a bit grim-dark story, look somewhere else (Maybe Utopian System (;) This one’s about having fun, taming dragons and expectations. _______ If you want to know more about the cover: Yep, that's Luna... Her skin and clothes morphing into shimmering scales from her dragon power. Remember Sailor Moon? Magical girls? Now imagine if the magical outfit wasn’t a cute dress, but an actual dragon! The dragon is the dress! Oh, and don’t miss the cool horns. It’s not just fashion; it’s fusion. High-level beasts tend to leave their mark, and Luna wears it like a boss, pulling off the ultimate power move. We will use the same Discord from Utopian, come join! https://discord.gg/W3CjfC2cw4 _______ Silly tags that seem to matter a lot to some readers: No Yaoi, No Yuri, Possibly Harem (Vote! I can write either, and in any case, there will be multiple girls. The only difference is whether he chooses one in the end or goes the "liberal" route.... democracy is yours!), No NTR.

In a kingdom where bloodlines dictate power, Prince Kaelen Varenthis was destined to rule, but fate has other plans. Born into a long line of kings, Kaelen is the heir to a throne embroiled in political turmoil and bloodshed. His family has long wielded the power of Form Shifting—a mystical ability to transform one's body and essence into powerful beasts, elemental forces, and even abstract concepts like time and shadow. However, Kaelen's Form Shifting abilities far exceed those of anyone in the kingdom, even his ancestors. At the height of his coming-of-age ceremony, a deadly rival faction orchestrates the elimination of his siblings, thrusting Kaelen into the heart of a ruthless battle for the throne. With his kingdom divided and enemies lurking in every corner, Kaelen must master the full extent of his powers and reshape not only his own destiny but that of the entire kingdom. The Form Shifting system is a complex and taxing art—each form requires mental strength, physical endurance, and spiritual fortitude. As Kaelen learns to harness his abilities, he discovers that he can alter not only his own form but also the infrastructure of his kingdom—crafting cities, technologies, and even bending nature itself to his will. But with great power comes even greater challenges. The more versatile the form, the greater the toll it takes on his body and soul. As Kaelen works to reunite the fractured kingdom, he must navigate political intrigue, forge powerful alliances, and defend his people from both external invasions and internal betrayals. With every step, he learns that true power is not just in shifting forms but in forging a vision of the future—a vision that can unite the fractured factions and build a new era of prosperity. But Kaelen's rise will not be without sacrifice. To conquer the shifting tides of politics, master his powers, and build a legacy, he must decide how much of himself he's willing to lose. Will he overcome the limitations of his Form Shifting abilities, or will the infinite power that courses through him be his undoing?

Spiritual energy surges back, faith is recast, this is the gluttony of gods, Buddhas, demons, and monsters... When the world was swallowed by a mysterious fog, the apocalypse descended without warning. Zombies roamed the streets, ancient creatures of legend came alive, and humanity stood on the brink of extinction. Anirudh, a pragmatic forensic pathologist, views the strange fog as nothing more than another cause for accidents and deaths—a bane that keeps his workload piling up, what should have been a routine investigation spirals into a nightmare—until a mysterious system awakened within him. This system revealed a startling truth: he was the heir to an ancient legacy tied to gods, demons, and sages of a forgotten era.

Megumi Fujiboma, a boy who met an untimely end, awakens to find himself reincarnated as the head of the prestigious Fujiboma household, a branch family of the revered Boma clan. From the moment of his birth, everyone eagerly anticipated the growth of this remarkable heir. However, their enthusiasm quickly faded when Megumi was revealed to lack external abilities, and was declared unfit to become an exorcist—one of those destined to drive the world away from darkness. Yet, Megumi was not one to be easily defeated. He possessed a powerful binding system that equipped him to transform his circumstances far sooner than expected. [Target successfully bound] ******** [Talent has successfully awakened: Grade One Fire Talent] [Receiving tenfold the rewards] ******** With each stride he took, however, a new challenge emerged: his inferiority in external energy.

The tale begins in a divine realm, where three deities—Kokou, Plutonia, and Ra—are mourning a tragic event that occurred three million years ago, an event that still weighs heavily on them. This mysterious tragedy has left the gods and demons divided, with many harboring hatred and regret. In the mortal realm, the story shifts to the Omi Kingdom, where two young brothers, Kor and Gor Kindel, are being prepared for a brutal test of strength by their cold and ruthless father, Bale Kindel. The test, resulted in Kor sacrificing himself to save Gor, triggering Gor's despair and awakening a cursed power within him.

The once-pampered prince is forced to flee into the desert, where he faces the harsh realities of life and ended up awakening an equally insidious curse as the previous two.

As they confront their destinies, the lines between gods, demons, and mortals blur, leading to a climactic confrontation where the true nature of power, revenge, and redemption is revealed.

Igor Calamity, an outcast of the Primordial Dragon clan from birth, deemed evil and heretic by the Heavenly Laws. Watch as he discovers his origin, while dominating world after worlds using his unique abilities.

Ethan never imagined his life would change because of a sudden tear in reality—what people now call the Bubble Fracture. It brought chaos, death, and unimaginable powers as portals connected Earth to realms beyond. These realms, or bubbles, became both a threat and a source of opportunity as they unleashed Mana, awakening hidden abilities in humanity. And in the midst of this upheaval, Ethan found himself chosen for something far more significant. Transmigrated to a place known as the High Continent, Ethan discovers he is not alone. Thousands of others from Earth and various realms have been brought to this strange land, forced to participate in a conquest for supremacy among powerful Lords and their talents. But unlike others, whose talents are fixed, Ethan's power—the Ascendant's Gift—evolves, growing as he learns to master the intricacies of S-Energy, a mysterious force that holds the balance of all worlds. As Ethan navigates political intrigue, forges alliances, and uncovers the secrets behind the Bubble Fracture, he must also battle other Lords, creatures from neighboring realms, and face betrayal from those closest to him. With each victory, his power grows, but so do the stakes—for every realm is seeking to consume the others, to dominate and expand until only the strongest remain. In a reality where the worlds themselves awaken and interact, Ethan will have to master the delicate balance of S-Energy to stabilize his home and transcend the fractured bubbles before everything—and everyone he cares about—is lost to the chaos of conquest. But the journey is long, and as Ethan rises to power, he finds himself facing not only external threats but also the burden of leadership, the weight of alliances, and the allure of unimaginable power. As realms collide, Ethan must decide whether he will use his power to dominate or to bring about a new era of unity. Will Ethan emerge victorious, or will the bubbles collapse and shatter, leaving nothing but destruction in their wake?

Twelve Thrones is a tale of twelve kingdoms, each with its own perspective, allowing you to follow one, multiple, or all as you decide who you want to see triumph in the end. But remember—this is a story of war, power, and ambition, and not all kingdoms will survive to the end. Twelve Thrones: AHK Perspective delves into the rise and transformation of Ahk, a land of wealth, ambition, and intrigue. From its grand castles and fortified cities to the leaders who shaped its destiny, Pallas's history is one of power struggles, alliances, and the pursuit of dominance. As the kingdom faces external threats and internal betrayals, its people must navigate a delicate balance between tradition and progress. The first 25 chapters will cover Ahk's history, uploaded weekly on Mondays at noon. Afterward, the main story begins with shorter chapters (1–2 per week) focusing on the present day. Unlike the history chapters, the story won’t have dates and will follow one character—you’ll need to piece together the timeline through character interactions and events. I recommend reading the series in date order to fully grasp the unfolding history. If the story gains popularity, I might include a date order map on each perspective.

The Lord of Nightfall Returns... but to What? After years spent wrestling with his own darkness, Viktor, the Lord of Nightfall, has come home. But the kingdom of Voltaine he remembers is gone—a shadow of its former self, consumed by secrets and plagued by dangerous ambitions. The throne is no longer held by a boyhood friend but by a man hardened by power, his every move guided by the enigmatic Ascended, a figure whose whispers reach further than the king's decrees. Their actions edge the realm closer to an unthinkable war with a Child of the Gods—a being whose wrath could reduce Voltaine to ash. As old loyalties crumble and new threats close in, Viktor is a man nearly alone, his allies few and the dangers that stalk him multiplying by the day. Even Nightfall, his ancestral stronghold and the source of his greatest strength, feels alien and unwelcoming, its ancient stones seemingly mourning the absence of its true master. To save his kingdom and himself, Viktor must confront not only the external forces tearing Voltaine apart but also the shadow of his own past. In a world where gods walk among mortals and power whispers promise of salvation and destruction, will the Lord of Nightfall rise to meet his destiny—or be consumed by it? The battle for Voltaine has begun, and in the end, not even the gods may stand untouched.
