War of the Sidorian Empire: Fall of the Dragon

RutiX_Z_R
The Sidorian Kingdom, once a proud and revered dominion within the Padovian continent, became a ruthless empire under the iron rule of King Zerudic Clemen del Sidorian IV—a power-hungry monarch who carved his name into the bones of history, swallowing the entire continent whole. After a decade of unrelenting conquest, he crowned himself Emperor Zerudic Clemen del Sidorian I, founding what would become the most feared regime the continent had ever known. A hundred years have passed since that war. The Sidorian Empire now stretches beyond the seas, consuming foreign lands beneath the shadow of its banners. Whispers of their coming are enough to send lesser kingdoms into frantic alliances, praying to be spared the wrath of Sidoria's unstoppable legions. At the heart of their fearsome military was the Dragonian Army—a brutal, elite force led by none other than Alkaris Budenmore, the living dragon and Grand Duke of the Budenmore Duchy, a land famed for its draconic legacy and unmatched warriors. But beneath the weight of empire, cracks begin to form. As whispers of betrayal stir in the halls of power. And when a blade finds its mark where loyalty once stood… Even dragons can fall.... ††‡‡‡★★††‡‡‡★★††‡‡‡★★††‡‡‡★★ After ten years of peace, a prophecy was. received bythe House of Angelo, the Grand Duchy whose veins ran with angelic blood. "The Sword of Sidoria shall fall before standing against it. It shall surely stand against it..." Only half of the prophecy was shared with the public—to prevent panic. However, it didn’t work. Silent fear still crept into the hearts of the people, and whispers of weakness began to slowly spread. But the other half— "...Alkaris Budenmore shall awaken as the dragon and stand against Sidoria..." —was kept hidden, known only to three: the Emperor, the heir of House Angelo, and the Pope. The prophecy was clear… or maybe not. Still, the message was enough to make them act. Alkaris Budenmore—the last of the dragon bloodline—had to be controlled. A vote was cast in secret. It was agreed: “Before the dragon awakes, he shall be the sword of the Empire… then he shall die.” And so, a silent decision was made. If the prophecy was true—he must die. If it was false—he must still die. The next morning, fourteen-year-old Alkaris Budenmore was summoned to inherit the title of Grand Duke—replacing his father who died mysteriously just two months prior. As tradition demanded, he swore loyalty to the throne, binding his soul to the crown that would one day devour him. This was not the beginning of his rise. This was the beginning of his fall.

Dual Cultivation God Returns

"Wu Long, the God of Pleasure, has fallen as he failed to breakthrough." This news have shocked all of the Seven Boundless Worlds. Meanwhile, a sixteen-year-old disciple of a dual cultivation sect was startled awake from a coma, and after some moments of calming down and gathering his thoughts, a dangerous light flickered deep in his eyes: "Jun Shaoshan, I will climb back to the top and make you pay for everything, no one has ever been safe after offending me, Wu Long!" -------------- Dual cultivation is a method of cultivation that can be seen described in a lot of cultivation novels where a man and a woman cultivates together by having sex. -------------- ***DIscord Link: https://discord.gg/JfSRtJVXTd The Image on the cover is AI-generated with some minor adjustments and text editing done over it. Please check the auxiliary chapter with Frequently Asked Questions since there may be some answers to the questions you might want to ask. If you want to ask questions regarding the novel before reading you can do so in the comment section of the said auxiliary chapter. If you have posted a review and it is not appearing on the novel page and not changing the novel score, it may have stuck in the system (happened in the past and occasionally happening now). Please comment under the FAQ auxiliary chapter mentioned above if you notice this happen. I can usually contact support in daytime on weekdays and the problem is fixed within days and the 'stuck' reviews appear on the page. Thank you XD -------------- ***The explicit chapters will be marked in the chapter name after the chapter number as (R18) and will contain no crucial plot, only explicit scene, so if you want to read it as a novel without explicit scenes you absolutely can by just skipping the explicit chapters. Though as a disclaimer: dual cultivation IS the theme of the novel so there will still be some provocative or slightly explicit content in the normal chapters, but not full-on long explicit scenes. ***Since it seems that there are a lot of people that are very particular about what they want I will put here some of the things to expect so that it is easier for people to decide if they want to read this or not: - NO yaoi, NO yuri, NO incest ; - NO rape ( it may be mentioned, but only as a thing that exists, not in relation to any particular character ); - MC's heroines will NEVER cheat on him; - MC's heroines will NOT ALWAYS have V cards (but there will be a lot of them who do); These are all non-negotiable so if you cannot tolerate a novel that adheres to any of the above sentences you should probably skip this one. !!! WARNING (ADVERTISEMENT) there will be MILFs. XD

Things He Never Says

A single sentence shattered her world: “Not worthy of pride.” Those words echoed in her mind, leaving her feeling like a ghost, drifting through life without purpose. She retreated into the shadows, her small room becoming a sanctuary of silence, where the outside world felt like a distant dream. Days blurred together, each one a reminder of her isolation. But then came the soft knock at her door, a gentle interruption to her solitude. A delivery boy named Kaito, with his quirky sticky notes and warm smile, brought a spark of light into her darkness. “If you like sweets, I’ll bring melon bread tomorrow,” he wrote, his words wrapping around her heart like a comforting embrace. His kindness was a lifeline, a reminder that she was seen, even when she felt invisible. Each note was a small treasure, igniting a flicker of hope within her. Why did he care? His presence stirred something deep inside her, a longing for connection she thought she had lost forever. When her money ran out and she felt the weight of despair, Kaito didn’t turn away. Instead, he offered her a chance—a job at his grandmother’s bakery. The thought of stepping outside filled her with both fear and excitement. The world that once felt so daunting began to shimmer with possibility. As she took that first step into the sunlight, her heart raced. Kaito’s gaze met hers, and in that moment, she felt a spark of recognition, as if they were two souls intertwined by fate.

With each passing day, the walls around her heart began to crumble, and the secrets of their shared history beckoned her to explore. Would she find the courage to embrace this connection, to uncover the love that had been waiting for her all along?
