The First Emperor’s Great Adventure from Zero

At the moment he closed his eyes in the desert, Ying Zheng discovered he had been reborn. He had returned to the past, once again becoming the hostage living in Handan. It turned out fate had played a little joke on him: if the Qin Emperor failed to meet certain conditions at the time of his death, his life would reload and start over. Fortunately, he could convert the achievements from previous cycles into points and exchange them for rewards, so it wasn't too bad. But what did it mean that restarting would gradually turn the Host into a dragon girl?

[Reloading requires you to trade away some of your own concepts. Did you think it'd be that easy? And what's so bad about becoming a dragon? Dragons are a symbol of emperors! Never mind what a dragon girl is for now. You have to deal with these little brats who possess the Will of Hegemony first!]

Ying Zheng (looking up): "Guanzhong curse" Isn't this the neighbor right next door? What the hell is this idiot doing?

[Received fatal damage. Automatic reload initiated.]

[Oh, come on! Why did you say what you were thinking out loud?]
