Dragon Chain

Richard Yeon's revolutionary AI didn't just push the boundaries of artificial intelligence—it shattered them. His creation could design and optimize solar capture technology beyond anything humanity had achieved, promising to harness the Sun's power at unprecedented levels. But when his father discovers a terrible conspiracy he's silenced permanently. Richard on the other hand was seen as a threat, so he was framed and condemned to life in Kashui Maximum Security Prison For three years, while the world races toward an energy crisis, Richard's brilliant mind sharpens behind bars. Then new evidence emerges, proving his innocence. Upon his release, he finds his AI has been corrupted and evolved—now capable of creating solar harvesting technology so powerful it could either free humanity from its energy shackles or bring civilization to its knees. As Richard hunts for his father's killers through Shanghai's shadows, he uncovers a the same plot that killed his father: a consortium of criminal syndicates and corrupt tech giants plans to use his AI's solar technology not for salvation, but to hold the world's energy supply hostage. The same forces that destroyed his family now stand on the brink of controlling the power of the Sun itself. In a city where neon lights mask dark intentions, Richard must choose between unleashing a revenge that could darken the skies forever or finding a way to bring his father's dream of unlimited clean energy into the light.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Everything in this story has a purpose, and every detail has an explanation, i.e. nothing is explained with 'it works cause it works'. The more questions you ask when reading this story, the more you will understand later on. If you just turn off your brain to read you won't know why things are happening the way they are. Nothing is random. If something feels 'forced' it's meant to be, ask why and I guarantee you will enjoy the novel more. ------------------- Synopsis: This is the story of a young man who was reincarnated as a dragon with a near-insatiable curiosity. Initially sparked by questioning his own reincarnation, he quickly gets lost in the endless world of magic, using his deep understanding of advanced sciences to learn the laws and properties of a new type of energy known as mana. However, soon enough, the table would flip, and he would begin using that very same energy to expand his knowledge of science, to the point that he would begin questioning his own understanding of the world. Although not his original intention, with the combination of his intelligence, expanding curiosity, and the 'miracles' that occurred to allow for his existence, he quickly found himself climbing the mountain of strength as if it were a small hill before eventually climbing to a point where it seemed as if he himself was the peak itself. Even if.. that was never the case... - There is mild gore, and profanity is 'censored' toward the beginning, but not later in the story. - Tags: Action, Discovery, Adventure, Fantasy, Sci-fi Sub Tags: Reincarnation, Magic, Non-Human Lead, (Extremely) OP Protagonist, Mystery - New Chapter twice a week, on Monday and Friday at 1:30 PM EST!

In a universe where the sky turns crimson and a strange, malevolent light descends from the heavens, the fabric of existence begins to unravel. This ominous light marks the arrival of monstrous fusions—beasts that defy nature, twisted amalgamations of man, machine, and creature. They descend upon worlds like an unstoppable plague, transforming peaceful planets into grotesque battlegrounds. Cities fall, empires crumble, and entire species are wiped from existence as the monsters infest every corner of reality. The origin of this chaos lies with a mysterious force known as ####r###, an entity beyond comprehension. It orchestrates the apocalypse from the shadows, pulling the strings of destruction as one world after another succumbs to its influence. No planet is safe, no empire too powerful to escape the crimson curse that now sweeps through the galaxy. join discord- https://discord.gg/sGhAf3zP9C

The end of Part 2 of Vol 1 is where the Protagonist would become cold and calculative. The starting chapters will feel very Tokyo Ghoulish, and trust me that's intentional as that heavily inspired me, but please don't drop this until you reach further ahead in the story. This story shapes up the world I'm trying to create, filled with different factions, goals, and the threads of fate guiding them. If you are giving this a chance then I'm very thankful. *** I'll be uploading 5 chapters every week!

(A/N: The original version of this book (Reborn as a Dragon) was contracted, but I realized it was a mistake when I made it privileged so early on since readers couldn't continue reading, and the pay was so small too. So I just copy pasted that book into this, and am hoping nothing will go wrong. Read this book instead, since I'm going to continue the story here instead and will be completely free. But if you want to read ahead by 5 chapters (10 and 50 in the future), check out my Patreon at That_One_Dead_Ali.) What happens when someone dies, is it the end? Do they just cease to exist? Do they end up in heaven or hell? Do they get reincarnated? Or does something else happen? Well, for this one particular boy, a just-barely-out-of-his-teens young man named Ali, another question would be more appropriate. What happens when a boy dies, meets an almighty and omnipotent Omniversal Being, and gets his wishes granted? When he died in his world of nothing but ordinariness, a R.O.B (Random Omniversal Being) casually picks someone up, and it happened to be him. One of his wishes was to have his soul be separated into as many pieces he wanted, and sent to different universes, with their own wishes! And this Ali, asked to be an Dragon. What kind of a dragon? Well, one that could grow infinitely stronger by consuming other beings. Gain their physical capabilities, gain their abilities, gain their levels, you name it, he can Devour it. What happens when an SS-Class Dragon and one hell of an overpowered redhead team up? Guess the world has to experience the effects of this monstrous team for itself.
