I woke up in this world with a System and a sword. Without hesitation, I chose to complete the princess’ quest with my weapons: Arrogance. Cunning. Pride. I will lead guild Sol Invictus. Denizens of the 7 hells, respect me. Servants of the 11 heavens, know fear. Guild Invictus, know the suffering of training so you can wrest victory from the jaws of those who dare doubt you. 

This is a story about a snake named Tycondrius waking up in a fantasy world of swords and sorcery. There is action, violence, unapologetic murder, and arrogant displays of power. There is an emphasis on combat growth as well as psychological growth on more than a few members of Guild Invictus. There is camaraderie and also the inevitable comedic dialogue amongst manly men. There are even elements of romance and Tycon running away from terrifying, powerful women. (Did you know most female snakes eat their partners after mating?) 

Give this book a read. I hope some of these stories can inspire you to fight your battles with analytical intelligence, heroic courage, and ruthless lethality. 

Work is completed as of 9May2024. There's also a few side-stories written in Chapter 1151!  The Author is working on a new story called 'I Wish You Were Never Reborn.' After four or so years of writing, my skills have much improved. Highly recommend.

Headed by a Snake

Coraline was led by Lucrezia into the adjacent corridor... Once they were far enough away from the denizens of the dining hall, the Popoto woman halted her steps. Then... her tears began to fall in earnest.

Lucrezia dabbed a handkerchief to the corner of her eye, "Oh, Coraline... I don't know what to do."

"What's wrong, Auntie Lu?" Coraline rubbed the back of her tiny Aunt's hand, cooing softly, "Hey, it's okay. I'm here. Talk to me."

Coraline glared at Lone, who was standing at the side. He was pursing his lips, looking generally lost.

"What-are-you-doing-here?" She whispered harshly.

Lone scratched the side of his head. "I uh... I'm standing guard?" He whispered back.

"No, it's fine..." Lucrezia forced a smile and turned towards the boy who couldn't read the mood. "Thank you for taking care of Miss Coraline. You must keep her safe, Mister Lone. I'm counting on you."

Lone smiled. "As long as I can protect her smile, I'll be happy."
