The Red Dragon came from the vast wild wastes, coveting all the strength in the world. It once had countless titles: Mountain's Wrathful Flame, Infernal Calamity, Crimson Emperor, Ashen Dragon......
The world trembled under the shadow of the giant dragons. He stirred up the craze of the magic industrial revolution; in the empire he established, Wyverns roared, artillery fired in unison, and steel beasts appeared in the sky and on the land, while disasters from another world rampaged everywhere.
"Submit, or die."
Cassius spread his wings, blotting out the sun, and gazed down at the trembling humans, elves, and dwarves below, saying thus.
......
It is a story about a Red Dragon with a player template conquering, ruling, and transforming an alternate world.
(Pseudo of DnD, The Fourth Calamity, Red Dragon)

So far a great novel with good update stability and interesting story and for once the Non-human MC stays non-human and doesn't just transform back into a human form and stay like that for the rest of the novel, this novel is somewhat similar to Last Egg: Reincarnated as a Dragon in a Game
I have only found 3 noves on this site that are good, and all of them have a paywall now. Pathetic.
a decent book would be good if the author did not have a giant paywall you pay to unlock chapters not half a page of writing the athour is clearly more foucesd on money then writing but ignoring that it seems like a good story.
So far I like the story, it’s just that the translation quality just suddenly dropped and at this point it’s getting kinda annoying. Don’t let that discourage you if you like different race POV tho, like I said it’s very nice so far.
This story is exactly what you think it is. A modern human transmigrates into a DnD style world, as an Evil Red Dragon. The only twist being this world is the setting of an mmorpg, a fact only the MC knows. I'd like to emphasize that this is a real world, a fact players are unaware of at the point I stopped. Cassius, the red dragon essentially does some routine kingdom building and industrialization. Uses advanced knowledge to pursue power, invades and slaughters innocents, and behaves like an evil cult leader. The deeper you go into this story, the more you forget Cassius has a human soul. As a matter of fact, an actual red dragon would be less devious and evil than Cassius. He pursues power and godhood for their own sake and treats everyone around him like either tools or enemies. Any good he does is incidental and self-serving. I just couldn't get past a certain point, where Cassius manipulates, enslaves, and slaughters a good-aligned race. I guess my edgelord phase is over since I cant enjoy this. The fact that enlists the players in his blood soaked campaigns is even more despicable because they dont know that this world is real and that the people they kill and torture are flesh and blood not bytes. I doubt this author will seriously grapple with the players realizing they committed war crimes in another world. Btw, I know Cassius also wars against evil-aligned factions, but his plans for world domination require him to invade good-aligned factions as well. If you can enjoy this on a surface level, it is a solid story about a villain protagonist. However, any slightly deeper examination of this story will make you despise Cassius the red dragon.
lumayan updatenya gak lama, untuk cerita jarang banget untuk novel gini apalagi sifat yang spesifik dan tema yang unik[img=coins][img=coins][img=coins]
read up to 114,good story but the fights are boring not bloody not in a sense for the other characters but for the mc no real Injuries,scares wounds happening just dodging cause he's fast honestly skimmed through fight scenes cause of it
Is the author aware of this? Anyway so far so good, translation errors and due to the complicated things around pronouns in Chinese, the translator misgendered it. plss recommendation for similar novel premise
Its a unique Novel. With a great blend of Gaming world and Fantasy. ................. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
great book. the tags don't mislead you and the protagonist's character develop that is consistent
Good easy read, good world building so far, minor translation problems, but nothing to cry home too. Would give this a read if you're in a rut
Read what was free. So far the story is progressing slowly but steady. Grammar needs to be worked on in places. Also some references are connecting with me, guessing they are cultural references. I like dnd so that concept is what made me read to begin with. The world background needs to be added upon. We don’t know where the mc is in the world what is around them in what directions. Also never specified disturbances. Hope this translation works out for you but not for me.
"Great read! The story kept me interested, and the pacing was just right. The characters felt relatable, and I found myself wanting to know what happens next. Keep up the good work!"
