What will she do with her new Power? Disclaimer: I do not own any of the images used Cover by the amazing @Creaking_Shadow

Xaniver Felir is a 21-year-old otaku. His sister, Farin Felir, is a 13-year-old student in middle school and has been providing him with living necessities. He is currently this way because of his father, Relid Felir, who is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the world-wide famous company Artuech, had abandoned him when he was 13 years old. From then on, he lived for 3 years with his mother until she died. During that time, his sister was taken in by his father but was given back to him a year later. His father's only message was to take care of her. He felt that his father had given up on him and became emotionally depressed. So, he started to depend on games and anime to relieve his depression. He is currently able to live with his sister because of his achievements in the games he played. He has won many world records for the highest win streaks in solo tournaments in RPG games and earns more than $50000 every year. He uses the money to buy new equipment and to pay the electrical bills. But, on one faithful day, when he was walking home after getting the new Blu-ray edition of Sword Art Online's 6th season, he saw his sister getting kidnapped by strangers and nobody paid attention to it. He ran towards his sister. He pushed the person aside but somebody came from behind and stabbed him. His mind at that time would ask him why he did so. Was it because of instinct? Was it because of his personal justice? It was none of those. It was because he loved his sister. His sister was the only one who cared for him in his desperate times. But, because he had saved his sister, he had died. His eyes simply dimmed as the pain in his chest began to numb. His final thought was whether his sister was safe. Or so he thought was his final thought... But, he was able to open his eyes again. Yet the place he saw when he had finally opened his eyes was different than any place on Earth.

I believe my name was Iriko. I was twenty years old. My life used to be normal, getting teased by my sisters, becoming their work-slave, that type of thing. But while I was acting as an errand boy, I ended up dying... or that's what I thought. The next thing I knew, I was in a forest, somehow alive. Now there was a problem. I've become a baby dragon, and I have no idea of who I once was. ------------------------- Alright, so bear with me. This is my first attempt at writing a story. I was inspired by a certain other Japanese light novel, so you may notice some similarities (Or maybe not). Any forms of criticism are welcome. Drop a comment if anything seems like shit. No really, call it a complete waste of human intellect undeserving to be read even by the most pitiful of worms if that's how you feel.

THIS BOOK TAKES PLACE AFTER 'BLOG OF A TEENAGE SUPERHERO'. You don't have to read that book first to understand the events that unfold in this one, but this story will spoil all the major plot twists in BoaTS. *** What makes a supervillain? After escaping prison, ex-supervillain Masquerade is on the run from the city he used to love. But the past, in the form of a boy he hurt and a superhero who saved him, won't let him go. He thinks if he joins the organization that wants to destroy "mutated monsters" like himself and the supers he used to terrorize, then maybe he can be made human again. Flawed logic, sure, but Masquerade would do anything to escape the person he's become. But when this organization takes their agenda a step too far, resulting in a tragedy far too close, Masquerade has got to choose: to be the person he's learned to be, or to fight back. *** COMPLETE
