Headed by a Snake

Headed by a Snake

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. Here is my discord: https://discord.gg/NNbAj7N Constructive criticism and corrections welcome. Other Authors extra-welcome.

QT: Grace To Grass Counterattack System

QT: Grace To Grass Counterattack System

He Yuan had accidentally caused his own death. He had no idea he was even dead until he suddenly woke up on the hard floor of an empty room. What had killed him? Well... for future reference, it's a terrible idea to install a chandelier over your bed. As he tried to get his bearings right, a strange guy suddenly popped out of thin air and he was offered a job. The job offer granted him eternal life with the alternative being reincarnation. Most would hastily choose to be reincarnated so they can start a new life but not He Yuan. He was skeptical, why would anyone want reincarnation? Once you reincarnated 'you' cease to exist. He didn't care about what people said about starting afresh, gaining new memories and all that. All he knew was that once a person reincarnated, they get thrown into a different environment, different family, meet new people and in short became a different person entirely. What scared He Yuan the most was losing his own thoughts and hence, awareness of his current self and so, he chose to accept the job. What did the job entail? He carried out tasks given to him by people who were called 'leasers.' They were called this because they leased out their bodies to 'taskers' for a period of time to help set their crooked lives straight. What the leasers didn't know was that the taskers got into realms and helped them so they( taskers) could focus on their own main tasks which was world/realm balance. These realms had 'special ones' who siphoned the luck out of it. Luck was the binding force of these realms so without it, the realms would begin to break apart and deteriorate into unlivable hells. So in essence, leasers gave put their bodies and 'payment' in the form of soul energy, taskers helped out the leasers while balancing the realms and the realms become stable once more. Pretty straightforward right? Yes. But can someone tell He Yuan why these world was so full of hypocrites, Mary sue and Gary stu characters who thought it was excusable to do horrible things just because they were in love? He Yuan grit his teeth. If you want to be in love, then be in love, was there any need to use others as stepping stones?! He rolled up his sleeves and bounced forward. Just you wait as I teach you all a valuable lesson! #Gongmc UPDATES: Twice daily ORIGINAL STORY.

I'm a Snake?

I'm a Snake?

"The hell? Where am I?" [I am your land survival system, you are the new owner of this snakezoid body] [Obey me, and I shall teach you the secrets of survival with the aid of body upgrades] "What the... are you on shrooms?" ... The world that William reincarnated to, was weird. It wasn't necessarily littered with 'merlins' who could taunt actual dragons with their powers, but those who did have powers, could not be underestimated either. Once he reincarnated in this world full of snakes and lizards, William had expected to deal with a couple of fireballs at best, but no, it was dangerous to walk around without getting his head blown up. There were plenty of magicians who wielded intelligence-based powers, for example, which to some extent made them invincible too! Those weren't even the most powerful magicians, no! People were so attuned to the environment around them, along with their own bodies, that plenty of powers originated from such sources! Follow William's journey as he skims through the system's sarcasm, to grasp his rightful rise to power. Follow his journey on shifting a whole country's politics to his will, to achieve some ulterior motives, regarding his ascension to another realm!

It could be that the moral is related to self - protection. The snake in the grass represents a threat that can harm the characters in the story. This implies that in real life, we should be vigilant and take steps to protect ourselves from those who might cause us harm, whether it's emotionally or physically.

The main theme might be the discovery of hidden evil. The snake in the grass is a metaphor for something that is lurking and waiting to strike. In the story, perhaps the protagonist gradually realizes that there is an element of malevolence in their midst, which they had not been aware of before. It could be a person, an idea, or a situation that has been concealed, and as the story unfolds, the true nature of this 'snake' is revealed.

A'snake in the grass' is an idiom. It generally refers to a person who seems friendly but is actually treacherous. In a story sense, it could be about someone who pretends to be a good friend to the main character. They are around all the time, acting nice. But then, when the opportunity arises, they stab the main character in the back, perhaps stealing their job, or spreading false rumors about them. It's like a hidden danger, just like a snake hiding in the grass that you don't notice until it's too late.
