This story is slated to go premium on 25.10.23. I'm hoping to bring some readers over from my big-bird story, haha.
After transmigrating, Aixiya is reborn as the next Demon King in another world. She thinks she has the perfect skills and countless underlings at her command, and that she's on her way to becoming a winner in life.
But to her surprise, from the start she can't even get into the Demon King's castle. Her territory has already been sealed by the gods, and the only area left outside is a human hunting ground where they farm materials.
With no other choice, she starts from a broken-boned skeleton and works her way up to a sleeping dragon, recruiting the demons one step at a time, conquering territory, and building a new age for the Demon King.
Later on,
War disappears from the continent of Eiffel, which she has conquered. Famine ends, knowledge is shared, and all races coexist;
The demons hail her as the wisest ruler in history, and she leads them back to their homeland;
Humans sculpt statues of her likeness, thanking her for bringing stability and equality;
Her actions are called conquest, yet they become the dazzling light of a new age.
Reader's guide:
1. The demons in this story are not devils or magical beasts. They are an intelligent magical race. Aixiya is a magic ruler, not the Demon King from the Demon King and Hero trope.
2. There's a little nation-building, but the female lead only gives orders.
3. The female lead appears in different ages and body types, changing at random throughout the story. The other characters all have one-sided crushes on her.
...This is the story I'll start next.
After accidentally falling into the sea and washing up on a deserted island, Lin Cixing opens her eyes to find herself face-to-face with a mysterious creature.
It has a pale, gorgeous face, so striking it looks like that of a vampire count from an old castle.
But it's only possible to admire that exquisite beauty if you ignore that beneath the beautiful human head is a creature nearly two meters tall, with huge, thick wings and a body resembling a cross between a giant eagle and a peacock.
A monster!
Lin Cixing freezes instinctively, terribly on edge, unaware that it is also studying her with curiosity.
All she feels is fear. In a panic, she tries to communicate through sign language and by rasping out words in different languages, but the monster's gaze grows stranger by the moment.
When the limbs of a primate start waving around, it looks remarkably like a bird's courtship display.
And so the great bird, inexperienced in the world and never having seen a human before, gets the wrong idea.
This monster looks weak and ugly, and its courtship pose is nowhere near as graceful as those of seabirds;
But that doesn't matter. It's the first creature ever to court it!
In recognition of such courage and passion, it decides to accept this cute, bald bird's courtship and protect its frail mate.
Reader's guide:
1. It has a human head and a bird's body, though later it will have a humanoid or human form. The female lead is nearly thirty (a specific detail that occurred to me while writing the first chapter), tall and lean.
Theme: Everyone is equal. Keep striving.
Tears, finally not the same god of light anymore
This Simmons is so bitter
Although the comment section always feels empty, it's nice to see.
Wait, no, this chapter doesn't connect with the end of the previous chapter. Is the middle text missing?
