Reborn: The Allies of Old (Book One) by LinnetMc
8 parts Complete Mature
Nineteen year old Anna Preston appears to lead a life typical for a young woman in modern-day America. But she has a secret. For the past three years she's been seeing shadowy figures mingling with the populace. Made of smoke and vapor with a vaguely human form, they are not overtly threatening, but in the recesses of her mind there are whispers of nightmares long buried and forgotten. Jared is of a race created solely for the purpose of protecting humankind from demons, and for the first two centuries of life he was fully devoted to the service. Until the very ones he protected repaid him by destroying everything he ever loved. For decades Jared's hatred of humans was a living thing, but time has a way of dulling strong emotion and centuries later he is mostly indifferent. But when he learns a vial of his blood is being used in depraved activities, a long forgotten past comes hurdling back. ** Humans, Vampires, Faerians, and Shifters once banded together to fight their common enemy, but it has been many centuries since the demons presented a real threat to the world- and in these modern times most are oblivious to the danger lurking just beyond their perception and mankind has reduced both allies and enemies to fairy tales and boogie men. Signs are beginning to appear that allude to this threat rising in power once more, but with the alliances largely broken and those still continuing the fight few and far between, the human race is on the precipice of a grave danger that could threaten their very existence. And so it is of dire need for the allies to gather together once more. Ancient prophesies will soon begin to surface, one in particular that speaks of a unifying force initiated by the unlikeliest of beings...

A man on a mission to conquer the world...of coffee! Ryu, a 20-year-old shut-in working a dead-end job as a barista, dreams of a lavish lifestyle being waited on hand and foot (some cute maids would be nice). When a freak accident delivers Ryu an untimely death, he is unceremoniously transported to the world of Cerulia where knights, dragons, and faeries alike are not concepts of old or creatures of fantasy, but very real and particularly dangerous. Ryu finds himself in the peaceful Kingdom of Kaffa, far from the conflicts of warring states. In this kingdom, the currency is coffee, status is coffee, and fame is coffee. It's the dream of every aspiring Coffee Brewer here to join the ranks as one of the monarch's Royal Brewers. It's a place ripe for the taking with his skillset. There's just one catch: outside the kingdom lay untamed wilds that defy the laws of nature, populated by strange and savage flora and fauna. Sourced in these wilds, ingredients for coffee are difficult to come by, and foraging for them is a perilous undertaking. Can Ryu manage to navigate this seemingly treacherous lifestyle? Or will he succumb to the dangers that lurk within the Wildlands? Testing out a new series. Feel free to comment with your thoughts as this is my first attempt at an Isekai/LitRPG (Please be nice).
