Synopsis

The cube is where it all began, being summoned to different worlds with no end in sight. Four friends fight their way through the vast expanse of the multiverse.

Chapter 1Chapter 1 - Cube

The dark expanse of space flowed across the room. Stars sparkled and flickered, the entire room replaced with the vastness of space. The only thing that made it clear that it was a room were faintly shimmering blue lights outlining the room and objects inside.

A mystical looking bookshelf with five shelves, half filled. Each shelf had a few books falling on its side, and a small collection of board games were stacked up among the bottom shelf, with a small pile messily spilling onto the floor. A bed was clearly outlined in the corner of the room, the blanket piled up onto it. At the center of the room were four people, each turned into a dark silhouette outlined in the same magical blue.

All four of them sat in the center of the room, with a cube in the center. Each side was covered with archaic looking runes, as it spun slowly hovering in the air. To the side a small wooden box was discarded, its inside pulsing with an equally magical red.

After what could've been aeons, but also only a few seconds, the room stopped flashing blue, reverting the room to what it was before. Color returned to the room, from a mystical blue to a saturated yellow. Perhaps the only remnant of what had happened was the small window in the room being completely blacked out.

Each person was clearly visible, yet floating above them rather conspicuously was their name, as well as an interesting addition.

Katie, the determined, is a tall mature girl with long well-kept brown hair. She's half-Asian and her skin is fairly smooth. Her eyes were piercingly brown, almost sparkling hazel from time to time. Faint eyeliner let her eyes stand out more, with some soft pink lipstick causing her lips to almost feel alluring. She wore a rather cute fur-jacket, covering a black t-shirt. A long skirt went down to her knees. She was staring at the cube, but also seemed to be looking far beyond it, with a strange smile on her face.

Jess, the undecided, is Katie's twin, just as tall as Katie. They came out as gender-fluid a few years ago. Wearing a beanie over their head, with black hair going down to their shoulders. Winged eyeliner made their red eyes stand out. They wore colored contacts as much as they could, Their face was heavily made up to hide their natural blush. A bright red lipstick made them look extremely alluring. Drawing attention away from a choker around their neck that hid their Adam's apple. Wearing a small black crop top that showed just enough skin to feel decent. They were also wearing a skirt, but a mini-skirt that was just long enough to cover them up. Black stockings covered their legs up to their knees, with skin that only had a few noticeable blemishes. They gave a small glance to Katie, before giving a piercing gaze to the cube, the blue light contrasting to their red contacts.

Roy, the devoted, was the shortest in the room, but only by an inch. He has a messy brown hairstyle that goes down to his neck, while his hair is layered above his eyes, somehow, his hair is always messy in the exact same way. He has strong brown eyes that sometimes shifts to green under the light. He's white but his skin is a nice tan-color, it's layered evenly over his entire body, no tan-lines in sight. A slightly-too strong deodorant smell comes from him, but the smell is reminiscent of green apple candy. He wears a white t-shirt that was just tight enough to show off a well-sculpted body. He's also wearing long jeans that while ripped in both knees, look brand-new. He gazed across the cube at Katie, with a slightly misty look in his eyes.

Xun, the unmotivated, is a tall Asian boy, slightly taller than both Katie and Jess. His long black hair tied up into a messy ponytail, and his glasses haphazardly worn. His black eyes slightly misty, his face in a near scowl. His expression was dull but his eyes flashed with a strong gleam of intelligence and mischief. He wore a green long-sleeved shirt, with pajama pants, covered with tiny gen-1 Pokemon. He sat cross-legged on the ground, staring almost wistfully at the blanket behind him. He seemed nearly unaffected by the cube, but his eyes were quickly clearing up.

The four of them had been friends for years, and were having a meet-up before they split up for college. They met-up in Xun's room, the living room of his house having been covered with moving boxes.

Yet, whoever they were and whatever reasons they had to be there. Nothing would change the fact that they were going to play Cube, and that nothing would ever be the same.

"Dragons and their spawn rule the skies, the land, and the seas... humanity survives in the cracks, dreaming of a comeback." _____ Power comes from the beast you tame at the tender age of ten. Wolves, hawks, snakes, spiders, chimeras, the stronger your summon, the brighter your future. Too bad for our protagonist. When everyone else summoned salamanders, eagles, troll dogs(not doge) 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 "failed" 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? Turns out they start small too, so... He’s going to tame everything, every evolutionary line. How? 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. As kingdoms crumble under greed and external threats, the weakest tamer begins his rise. Follow his path as he unlocks a potential so rare, so terrifying, it leads to dragons… Every evolutionary line leads to the strongest ‘SSS Dragons’. _______ Warning: Contains world-ending dragons, ridicule-fueled underdog revenge, dragon-scaled protagonist, morally questionable nobles, insane creature evolutions and enough twists to make you wonder if weakest really means luckiest.

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 my first book, 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.
