The Spirit Realm of the Strange

Humans, dragons, demons, and a mysterious third race. The male lead has no overpowered cheat, and this is not a pure wish-fulfillment story. The world is vast. I hope you’ll be patient and stick with it, and I’ll do my best to fill in all the gaps I’ve left.

For some reason, the male lead is abandoned in a foreign land. A teacher takes him in, and he awakens to magic. Since his family has been plagued by demons for generations, he too inevitably becomes a demon’s Host. He rises step by step from an ordinary boy to the pinnacle, becoming one of humanity’s greatest mages. Along the way, he and the dragon heroine experience changing feelings, eventually become a couple, and defy society’s judgment. Later, through her courage and conviction, the heroine is chosen by and merges with the lingering fragments of the soul of Nidhogg, progenitor of the dragons. She gains the ability to activate weapons refined from parts of Nidhogg’s body, and together with the male lead, creates a legend of their own.
