Reincarnated in a novel: I am the villain! - Chapter 262: Neutral Zone

Lanz Kuroda failed his Awakening Test in the most spectacular way possible, he didn’t just rank low, his ass got slapped with an FFF. He was locked out of the system entirely, and sent home like the rejected tutorial character that he is.But when a cracked relic crystal he bought from a sketchy street vendor activates, it boots up something the world shouldn’t even know exists, a hidden system that logs him into an old, forgotten alt account, one with no level cap, restrictions, and absolutely zero oversight.By day, Lanz is still the same guy that no one aspires to be.But at night? In the dungeons?He becomes Zero, an anonymous hunter operating outside the system, clearing high-tier raids solo, and slowly building a legend no one can trace.The world thinks he’s a joke.He’s about to become its biggest problem.

My name is Lin Fan. I have crossed the border. I want to cultivate immortality, and my mana is boundless.

In the Solarian Empire, people were divided by their blood. The nobles enjoyed their life in wealth, with fine wine and amazing food. They reigned supreme over the commoners. The only reason they were able to do this was that they had knowledge of the most powerful force in the world - magic. The nobles controlled their knowledge from easily going to commoners, making it harder for them to learn magic.

Leo, a young orphan in Solaria, had an incredibly powerful affinity for magic. He didn't even know about it because he could never learn magic- he was too poor to try and learn from any magic academies. He was just trying to survive the streets of Solhaven until he found the lost tome of the Arcane Emperor.

"I can beat a 7th Circle Mage."

"Wow! You must have trained for many decades. How old are you?"

"17."

The world was going to be turned upside down.

When I died in a highway robbery and was reborn as Draco Von Ashblade, a bastard son in a world where awakened talents determined fate, I thought my noble birth would finally give me an easy life. Instead, I spent sixteen years as a mana-less outcast in my own family's estate.But on what should have been another day of humiliation, I awakened an SSS-rank Dragon Lord talent, only to discover the truth: my mana core had been deliberately damaged when I was young.Someone had tried to destroy my potential before it could manifest.Now, with my Dragon Lord abilities and my beasts which all have SSS-rank hidden potential, I'll uncover who sabotaged me and evolve my contracted beasts to their hidden potential.This time, I won't just survive as the bastard son; I'll make the dragons rise again after they disappeared from this world and forge my own legacy.Additional Tags:#Gates.#Dungeons#KingdomBuilding
