Sovereign of the Ashes - Chapter 993: Vivisection

When Li Xianyu was 20 years old, he received his father’s inheritance, an 18-year-old great-grandmother who was incredibly beautiful.

Li Xianyu: “Great-Grandma, why are you so young?”

Great-Grandma: “That’s because I died when I was 18 years old.”

On one spring evening when I was eight years old, I, Erica, Duke of Aurelia’s daughter, realized something.

Huh, I have reincarnated into a fantasy world, haven’t I?

Moreover, it was the romance-fantasy girl game that had the reputation of being bloody, 『Liber Monstrorum ~Phantom Beasts and the Winter Princess~』

The face reflected in the mirror was that of the villainess character of that game.

After repeatedly harassing many characters, including the heroine, she would die without exception, signaling the beginning of an event called the bizarre incident. She was a villain who deserved to get the consequences!

—I absolutely don’t want a destiny like that, though?

No, for me who has remembered the memory of my previous life, there would be no such thing.

In my previous life, I was harassed immensely by an irrationally angry yandere man who proclaimed ‘She is absolutely in love with me.’

My cause of death, too, was from being stabbed by another yandere man who I only had talked with a few times……

Now that I have become the haughty villainess Erica, I shouldn’t encounter more misunderstandings like with the previous life’s yandere men anymore, right……?

In that case, it will be fine as long as I deal with the death flags that I may have raised myself.

All right! First of all, before the bizarre incident begins at the Magic Academy, I will strike down the death flags accordingly!!

—Or so I thought, but it seems that I am about to die.

Eeh, how did this happen—!?

Every novel has a slag character, the one who decides to abandon the protagonist at his lowest, most helpless point, either because he can’t stand the poor guy’s circumstances or for other reasons. But after the protagonist wins his way in life again, they’re the ones who beg with broken sobs to be taken back.

Still, water once spilled can’t be recovered again.

Yet the unlucky Shen Jiayan has been bound to a Water Recovery* System to do just that.

*water recovery – comes from an idiom that means “spilled water can’t be recovered” (English equivalent: there’s no use crying over spilt milk).

Lu Yu transmigrated to a parallel world before the Reiki recovery and awakening of the cities.

Ferocious beasts attacked, and all of humanity started awakening special talents.

All living beings in the world started to evolve and mutate, and become materials for humans to become more powerful.

As long as one searched for the appropriate materials, he could evolve his talents and become more powerful.

But there were many talents that were extremely mysterious, and no one knew how to level up those.

On the Talent Awakening Platform…

Lu Yu awakened the weakest talent [Claw Attack]. Everyone laughed at him.

Fortunately, his system activated, and only he could see its notifications.

“Detected the talent [Claw Attack].”

“Please choose from the evolution paths below: [ Cat Claw Path ][ Bear Paw Path ][ Eagle Strike Path ][ Snake Tooth Path ][ Dragon Claw Path ]…”

“Please confirm your choice, [Dragon Claw Path].”

“Please continue to choose your evolution path: [Flaming Dragon Claw] [Flowing Water Dragon Claw] [Rock Crushing Dragon Claw] [Gale Dragon Claw] [Light Dragon Claw] [Dark Dragon Claw]…”

As such, Lu Yu used the system to his advantage and set foot on the path of leveling up toward supreme power.
