My name is Tim, or it was until I died. There was no light at the end of the tunnel, no white room to choose any cheats from, nor was there any meeting with God.... more>>

I didn’t die heroically while saving someone, and I certainly didn’t get hit by a truck. My death was rather stupid and anticlimactic, I had apparently bumped my head while sleeping and passed away...

That should have been the end of the road for me, but like many self-proclaimed main characters, I joined the army of multi-dimensional travelers and was reincarnated.

Being an avid light novel and manga reader, I would have been excited about the opportunity, if not for my new siblings, who tried to kill me as soon as I was born, or for my mother, who seemed to have a thing for throwing me off cliffs. And let’s not forget my murderous father, who forced me to flatten a small country as my Rite of passage.

Oh, did I mention I was reborn as a Dragon?

King Einar, the astonishing king of the great and only continent, one day decided to choose a new heir to his kingdom from among his five most precious sons. ... more>>

By giving each of them different duties, King Einar did something unchangeable and unimaginable that day. He gave them an order and not only a task or a quest to accomplish, but he also wanted his sons to accomplish their duty with maturity, with honor, and with pride.

But nothing, he wanted to do went in order, just because of his son. The eldest and most powerful brother, "Yores", opposed this situation. He decided that it would be better, if the King gave them a second chance. But everything was chosen, and he found himself another solution to conquer his biggest rival.

Lost, against anything that he wanted to win.

So he made a deal with the most powerful lineage, "The Apocalypse Lineage," to take the throne. And by obtaining power, he started a rebellion.

After Yores took the throne, he ruled the people in such a manner for years, damaged many relationships and made himself the evilest person to ever be seen. But even his reign, came to an end.

A wolf descendant, one of the strongest lineage's people, challenged Yores. Jiro, the strongest person among bloodlines. He was so brave, so strong, and so dauntless. He was someone who changed many things. The Battle of Jiro and Yores continued for three days exactly, and their battle, being heard all over the continent, changed the entire world.

But the real story to be told was only beginning.... <<less

The Realm of Meriath. A world populated by four species: Humans, Beast Folk, Beasts, and the Undead. Four thousand years ago, the world almost ended as the intelligent species of Meriath knew it. They were on the verge of being overrun by the Undead hordes. It was only averted thanks to multiple figures rising above all else from both the ranks of Humans and Beast Folks. With their lead, they pushed back and broke down the Undead menace, working hard to reclaim their Realm. ... more>>

When the Dark Ages ended, only six remained standing from those heroes of yore. They were the Patriarchs and Matriarchs of their families, establishing the Six Houses of Meriath. Families that are, after 4000 years, still present and still guard the Realm against the Undead. Their mission is to ensure they never rise back to the same frightening state as before, endangering every living being on Meriath.

He has to travel to many different worlds, taking over an identity of some unfortunate soon-to-be-dead dude, and live out the remainder of his new life there however he wanted.

Noah: "...Blackie, is it just me, or is this good brother of mine looking at me like a hungry wolf seeing a juicy piece of meat?" (°△°|||)

Black: "Don't worry, host. He is just a bit excited due to nearly losing his life back there. You know, adrenaline." (¬‿¬)

Noah: "…are you sure that's what's really going on here?" (っ °Д °;)っ

Black: "Absolutely!" (≖‿≖)

What a wrong way to reincarnate after being murdered by one's best friend!... more>>

Nekohiko's throat was slit as he was ascending his throne as the Supreme Divine Emperor. A moment later, his murderer claimed that very throne for himself. To add the insult to the injury -- Nekohiko's name was erased from all the history books as though he had never existed.

Driven by intense resentment, Nekohiko refused to die. He reincarnated. He had to find out how someone who loved him and who he loved back could destroy him so utterly along with everything Nekohiko stood for.

The only problem was that he reincarnated as a... tree. No, much worse than that. A cut tree. A simple wooden log sent to a workshop to be shaped into, let's say, a table, or a chair, or maybe -- if fortunate -- into a bookshelf for the new Emperor.

Until Nekohiko meets a soul that understands his pain and is willing to help a poor tree log gain shape that is far more fitting for a human bent on nothing but sweet, slow revenge.

Or, even better -- several shapes.

I will release a chapter every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

See the Glossary for more Information about the romance (ML section). Or in general -- for pictures and miscellaneous stuff about the book. ^^

The story is a slow burn with plenty of twists and turns and will involve a lot of mystery-solving to understand the motivations and goals of different characters. Action sequences will happen when the plot calls for them, but they will all require buildup to greater impact. The main themes are emotional and psychological explorations of identity, desire, fate, and intent. Characters will grow and develop across present arcs but flashbacks to provide context and mystery clues to their behaviors will be in order, yet without overpowering the present narrative (Flashbacks are episodic slice-of-life and do not have their own plot line).

His grandfather expects him to succeed in his life’s work as village head, his father expects Edwin to be better than him, and his older brother expects him to just drop dead.

If it was up to him, he would go out and brave the dangers of the world, dread wolves, dragons, giant sand worms, and gargantuan sea serpents. He would fight them all and live many adventures, turning his name into legend.

Sadly, things hardly go the way we want them to.

Lucky for him, the recent arrival of a mage to the coastal town of Hillside has given Edwin an opportunity, a chance that may change his life forever as outside forces play in the background with the delicate balance maintaining the peace.

Edwin will now give it his all to journey through the path of magic while learning about the people in his life and the circumstances that lead to his birth.
