Dragon Raja: The Calamity of the Sovereign Flame

Possibly Lu Ling. The pace is fairly fast, based on reader feedback.

“Listen, big brother... You know, being a loser is actually pretty cool.”

“Every king’s blood must end by the sword.”

Picking up after the finale of Dragon Raja V: The Return of the Dead, Lu Mingfei is taken by the Doomsday faction to the Nibelungen deep in northern Siberia. He is preparing to enter the memories of the little devil, Lu Mingze, to uncover the truth behind the Black King’s revival. Meanwhile, Cassell College, the Secret Party’s Council of Elders, and the Henkels close in from all sides. Chu Zihang, who has lost his memories of Cassell, Su Enxi, who stands outside the fray, and Nono, whom fate is driving toward the abyss, are all drawn back into the war.

This time, the enemy is no longer merely a Dragon King or some god. It is an ancient secret, buried together by humanity, the Hybrids, and the dragon race. The gods are not truly dead. They are only sleeping in the cracks of the world, waiting for another unlucky boy to make a choice.

This is a story about loneliness, betrayal, memory, and sacrifice. The world is on the verge of collapse, and Lu Mingfei finally understands that some people don’t burn themselves up to save the world. They do it because there is still someone in the world worth turning back for.
