"We need the ultimate weapon at our command!" The Chief General growled. "If we are ever going to achieve the Empire's conquest, we need unparalleled power!"

"We understand." The team answered fervently.

"Use whatever you need, everything is at your disposal. All we need are results!" He furthered, increasing his dominant tone.

"Understood sir!"

"Project H.E.L.I.X. must not fail! We are pouring all we have into this. The Empire must reign supreme."

"Yes sir" Salutes sprang forth.

"For the Empire" They all said in unison

[Moments Later]

Doctor Kurt and Chief General Kangris walked down the hallway of the deep underground structure currently serving as the home base of the project.

"Tell me, how long will it take?" Kangris asked expectantly.

"Science is unpredictable, so I can't say. But, I'd say in a decade…" Doctor Kurt, the old geezer responded.

"Old man, we don't have that kind of time. War looms on the Empire, we need the Project to come in handy during the battle to come." The middle-aged general grumbled.

"You mean the war the Empire brought on itself?" The Scientist laughed casually. "You can't rush us, General. Great things take a great deal of time."

"I speak for your sake as well…" The bulky General's voice became much calmer.

"… The Empire has hit the wall on Magic and is behind in the Arts, compared to the enemy kingdoms.

However, what we have are our vast resources and limitless availability of Magic Beasts and minerals.

We have decided to focus our attention on science… But if this project doesn't prove viable, you know the consequences."

"I am well aware. But have no doubt, It'll be a success…"

The Chief General's worried face cracked a smile. Relief slowly spread all over his countenance.

"… And when it's done, it'll be the most powerful force this world has ever seen." Doctor Kurt concluded, smiling widely.

"I look forward to it!" The Chief General said as he shook hands with the Doctor and nodded.

"Well, I best be off to the Royal palace, there are other matters that require my attention. I'll be taking my leave now."

"As expected of our Empire's strongest knight, you're a busy man. But don't you worry." Doctor Kurt maintained his smile.

The Chief Knight brought out a scroll from his back pouch and opened it.

The rune within it glowed orange as a bright light shone. When it subsided, the Chief General had vanished.

"Guess he's finally gone… good." Doctor Kurt said to himself with a sly grin.

"Now to start work on my end. Let's make the world's strongest beings!"

Due to the Empire's Grand Conquest, and a search for power that transcends Magic, Science surfaced.

As a result, the empire used their rarest—most powerful—creatures, and materials, as a base to create beings who transcend both science and magic.

The ultimate existence…

… Homunculi.

The Project was successful, and the Empire rose in its conquest and become the top world power due to the beings created from 'H.E.L.I.X.'

But… On one fateful day, two of the Homunculi defected from the Empire, causing a disturbance in power.

Till today, no one knows what became of the rogues—

—Homunculus #09, and #00.

Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons

"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.

I Can Copy And Evolve Talents

The convolution of worlds are governed by a set of gods, each god is given a world to rule and there can be skirmishes between them – as a result of one between Nexus, the god of trickery and a senile old hag Elliot reincarnated into Ul’Tra-el by mistake. Ul’Tra-el is a world that grew a voice, because of this voice, it began to take a different path from other worlds -- it was filled with a core anomaly – rifts. Dimensions began to leak into each other, vomiting outrageous monsters. In response or as an auto-correction to such anomaly, talents were awakened in the inhabitants of Ul’Tra-el and they gained tremendous power, for every rift they close down, they were rewarded massively by the voice of the world called Ul. In a hardcore world like this one, our MC (Northern) reincarnated as a talentless individual but in the face of a death and a head splitting revelation... ...when all hopes seemed lost. {System Notice} Your Soul cannot take a form Searching for Unique pattern ability for your soul searching... search found. Unique System ability has been found... Unique System Ability [CopyCat] has been gained. Awakening Unique ability... Northern gained a talent copying system! ... Follow Northern through his journey as he becomes the pinnacle of this world. This a story about a white-haired boy’s rise from rubbles!! Note: This is an overpower genre but MC does not just start off like that. Even though MC can copy talents he doesn't just jump around copying talents because there's a limitation. However, his rise to strength is depicted and is an experience to enjoy. The first few hundreds would be frustrating to follow because MC is weak but that makes the experience all the more interesting when MC finally gets freaking strong and starts wiping the floor with everyones asses.

Celestial Bloodline

Kyle's life was lazy and ordinary, but little did he know something extraordinary lay dormant deep inside his body. All his life, he remained unaware that everything happens for a reason. Everything changed when he turned 16. His older brothers, fed up with his laziness, devised a plan to teach him a lesson. They urged him to take the entrance test for a prestigious academy, thinking that getting a beating in the test would instill some sense into their lazy brother. Kyle was stunned, speechless, but due to their coordinated planning, he reluctantly agreed with a hint of resignation. "I don't think I will pass the test anyway, so trying it for the experience isn't a big deal." "The only problem is, I can't guarantee that all my body parts will stay intact until the end of the entrance test." But to Kyle's shock, he passed the test without even lifting a finger! Still, he was convinced that he would eventually be kicked out of the academy due to his lack of strength. But the moment he set foot in the academy, he discovered something incredible about himself. He was special and nature's favorite. . . . ______ (#It's my first time writing. So, support me with ps, gt and gifts. Hehe, THANK YOU) (Note: The cover is not mine, found it from pinterest.
