Chapter 1Prologue (1)

Silveria Empire

The sounds of a wooden sword fight could be heard inside the well-protected fortress of the border. The knights formed a big circle around the dusty training arena and observed the two talented swordsmen as they displayed their trained skills on a master level.

The fight looked balanced to the untrained eye, but the knights understood the meaning behind the well-balanced exchange of moves. The visible shock on their faces proved that the truth was agitating, humiliating, and ridiculous at the same time.

On one side of the arena stood an old knight clad in brown leather clothes. The fatigue and sweat beads were perfectly visible on his slightly tanned face. He looked like a seasoned warrior with a big scar on his face and big muscles. Yet, the training sword inside his hands slightly trembled as he looked at his young opponent.

A tall boy stood in the middle of the dusty arena opposite his opponent. His long red and slightly wavy hair was combed into a ponytail. This style left him with short side bangs. His golden eyes and white face made him look even more beautiful and slightly feminine, while his penetrative gaze and strong jawline gave away his hidden confidence.

The boy wore brown leather pants with a white shirt. There was a golden raven embroidered on the back of the shirt and this detail revealed his noble upbringing. The boy looked exhausted but his breathing remained rhythmic and his gaze stood firmly focused on the opponent. He was clearly not pressured by the fight as much as the knight in front of him.

The old knight on the other side started attacking again to answer the invisible pressure that the young man knowingly generated. He made an aggressive vertical slash as a way to intimidate his young opponent.

'I can't believe that this is happening. He copied my moves one after another and executed them with even better form than me. His invisible taunts are making me move and I can't get a read on him. His body looks weak but I can feel his attacks through the wooden sword. I'm 52 years old but this little guy here looks more experienced than me. He's a monstrous genius, but that doesn't matter.

I will make a full-force attack and force him to back down. I can't believe that he dares to go against a veteran like me without fear.'

Meanwhile, the knights in the audience started to get worried. They couldn't tell whether the vice-captain was angry or not. The only one who was not worried amongst the knights was the captain. He knew his friends like the back of his hand.

The old man was about to finish his move when he suddenly stopped after seeing that his opponent didn't back down. He dropped the wooden sword and patted the young man on the shoulders.

"My my, I admit defeat. This young man here is way too talented for my old bones. You have a very bright future ahead of you."

The knights around the arena started clapping and shouting after the praise. Earning the praise of a war veteran at such a young age was an achievement worth celebrating in the eyes of the knights, but the young man just nodded and left without saying a word. This made the vice-captain and the knights a little bit puzzled.

"Hey Cap, what's wrong with him? Did I say something wrong?" Asked the vice-captain with a confused face.

The captain facepalmed.

"No. It's alright since you didn't know his identity. Have you ever heard about Erlen Ravensword? The cursed prodigy of the Ravensword house? He is the one whom you just told that he will have a bright future. His dream was to become a legendary blade mage, but the doctor told him at the age of 12 that he has no magic power. Telling him that he will have a bright future probably made him remember this."

The vice-captain had a crestfallen look on his face after hearing this. Having no magic power means that you can't summon your soul blade. Thus can't become a blade mage either. Potential blade mages summon their soul sword at the age of 12. They make a contract with the sword after that and learn about the soul's past life, which dwells inside the sword. This is how the blade mages inherit the skills of the sword soul.

Most importantly, normal swordsmen can never rival blade mages. Even the weakest blade mage is stronger than a normal swordsman due to the magic power inside them. A normal sword can't cut a skin coated with magic power. Thus, no wonder that everyone in the world slowly became a blade mage. Everyone except Erlen Ravensword!

"It looks like I made a mistake." muttered the vice-captain.

----------------------------------------

Not much later after the duel

A white, horse-drawn carriage stopped before the gates of the fortress. This carriage was full of golden ornaments, but the most noticeable was the golden raven on the side doors of the carriage. This golden raven was the emblem of the prestigious Ravensword noble family.

The door of the carriage slowly opened and a beautiful maid stepped out. She wore a traditional black and white maid costume and there was a little golden raven on the sleeves which clearly indicated the status of the maid. She respectfully bowed and greeted Erlen.

"Welcome young master, where do you wish to go?"

"I want to visit my dear family." Erlen said with a mischievous grin on his face, and the maid who was supposed to step inside the carriage almost tripped when she heard this.

'You want to go back to that place? Do you have a death wish young master?'

The Author's POV

The person whom the world revolves around. The person who defeats all of his opponents, and ultimately gets the beautiful girl. The sole existence all villains fear. That is the protagonist. What about me? As a failed author who had only one success throughout his whole career, I had reincarnated into my late novel. "This is it" I thought, as I tightly clenched my fist. Did I just get reincarnated in my own novel? Is this where I reincarnate in a novel and become the protagonist? No. Sadly it's not that kind of novel, as I reincarnated as a mob. The world doesn't revolve around me. The girls don't come flocking towards me. The cheat items don't come to me. "Phew" I let out a sigh of relief. "Thank god I'm not the protagonist" I joyfully shouted as tears streamed down my cheeks. Wait, are you curious as to why I don't want to be the protagonist? I did forget to mention the most important thing when I was describing a protagonist. That is... They are calamity magnets. I just died. If I learned something from that, it's that it really isn't a pleasant experience. If possible let me live a long stable life. Thank you, whoever reincarnated me. I would later come to regret these words... ======== Reader Disclaimer : Please read the *Read before reading novel* in synopsis. ======== Credit to _oinkchan for helping me find the previous novel cover Credit to Rengoku for his amazing edit of the new cover. ======== Discord : https://discord.gg/FNAKgfyky4 Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TheAuthorPOV

Earth's Greatest Magus

#Top 20 Webnovel Best Sellers 2021, 2022, 2023, and in 2024 #### History is said to be written by the victors. If so, how about Earth's history? Two millennia ago, a young boy named Emery met a tragic fate. In his final moments, he was transmigrated and accepted into the Universe's most prestigious school of magic. “You are among the chosen few from thousands of human worlds. Whether you seize this opportunity or not, is up to you. You are at Magus Academy, the pinnacle of humanity's ingenuity. Magic, science, and might are all within reach for those who dare to pursue them." [Scan complete - Quadruple affinity. Water, Earth, Plant, and Darkness.] "A quadruple acolyte! Only one in tens of thousands of acolytes possess this!" Thus began Emery’s journey together with his 4 friends from the furthest corner of Earth. Each year they returned to Earth to grow, seek revenge, save the princess, conquer the world, and become Earth's Greatest Magus. Their names are still etched in our history books to this day. Authors Note: I have always been fascinated by writing fantasy relating to historical facts. In this story, you will find characters inspired by real-world myth and legend. The universe I created hopefully will make the reader's imagination excited and logically plausible. I hope you enjoy it. ### Here are some key aspects you'll encounter: MC: The protagonist follows the classic weak-to-strong arc. World: Picture a blend of Harry Potter and Star Wars. System: While it's primarily a magic-based story, there's a structured system in place that's easy to follow. Additionally, elements of cultivation. Harem: No, there are several female interests. But I enjoy romance first. So even if there will be more than one love interest it will be deep. Note: English is not my first language, but you'll notice that my writing and English skills gradually improve throughout the chapters. Other: The novel delves into deep research on science and history, enriching the storyline with factual and intriguing details. Give it a read—you might be pleasantly surprised by what unfolds.

Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons

"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. A MC who’s out to prove everyone wrong… even if it kills him. Spoiler alert: It won’t. For those who love a whole lot of fun, this one’s for you. If you’re looking for a darker 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, the FL... Her skin and clothes are 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 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.
