The Legend of Shadow Knight Hello my dear Earthlings,
It is official now. From December 16, 2023, the Gregorian calendar I am an earthling too.
It is not because I was born on that day. Rather, because I was reborn that day. I am what you call a transmigrator. I am now occupying the body of the earthling named Tej. He was struggling as a writer while stewing in a full-time day job that he hated.
Yes, you read it right.
I am a transmigrator. Very much like the ones you have read about in other novels on this platform. I am from a world completely different from Earth. But I am sure that most of you who are reading this are familiar with a world like that.
It is the world of magic. A world with mana, mages, knights. Rogue bandits, dark forces, demonic beasts, divine churches. Familiar, isn’t it? As you might have guessed, because of mana’s presence an individual can get way too powerful.
Our development is focused on Mana. In a way most of our methods of travel, the tools of war, and many more are very much archaic.
Our world’s power revolves around a few powerful individuals who rule over millions. Because those few individuals hold the power to destroy millions within their bodies.
In that world people with talent and power aim to be the strongest and fight for what they want. In that world, I was born with decent talent. But I wasn't obsessed with power. I was obsessed with the stories. Stories and legends of great heroes, villains, and monsters passed from generations.
With that fascination, I cultivated my talents to the fullest potential. I dreamt of traveling the world and unearthing the legends. I wanted to make them known throughout the world.
Just like the former Tej, I wanted to be a storyteller as well.
And unlike Tej, I have had some success. From the first exploration I embarked to capture the story of the Golden Knight capturing the Draconic Shark, I have covered many stories. Including the legend of the shadow knight, the revenge of the fallen angel, the conquest of the forgotten land and many more.
I have followed those events, investigated them and even seen some, met the people involved in it.
I wrote those stories so the rest of the world could read them. I did all of that along with a special innovation of mine that could capture images. It does the same job as the thing that you call a camera. In your world, I am what you might consider an investigative journalist.
I spent my whole life exploring stories.
I have seen my world change bit by bit. I have seen one man destroy it, another man rebuild it, a several trying to preserve it and many more trying to conquer it.
It is safe to say I had a great and meaningful life.
When I was lying on my deathbed at an old age, I had a smile on my face as I looked at the world outside of my window. I knew I was dying with no regrets. Next thing I knew, I am in the body of this young man, Tej.
I got accustomed to this new world with no mana, no magic, but equally convenient if not more, I must say. As much as I was fascinated by the novel inventions and the busier-than-god lifestyles, I was saddened by Tej’s life.
I can only say, that he didn’t die the same way that I did. He died a life full of regrets, all the sorrow he suppressed within… In a way, death must have been a release for him and I wish all the peace for his soul.
And I found my purpose.
To honor the soul of Tej, I shall tell the stories of my world to you on his behalf and in his name.
I shall make his name known as a great storyteller. (Note: So, keep my transmigration part a secret. Let’s just keep it between us.)
And I will start with my first story. The Legend of the Shadow Night.
Its a story of one man's ambition, one man's loss and one man's retaliation.
So, interpret as you may and make a judgment on your own.
Disclaimer: For convenience sake, I will use Tej as my name in the Story as well.
