Protagonist? Antagonist? I Reject Both

Somewhere in the Dimension Zone

In The throne room of the Beast clan where there was a magnificent collection of powerful beasts and an exhibit of the might of its rulers.

Golden torches flickered along the walls, casting dancing shadows looming over the huge walls.

The air was heavy with the scent of incense, mingling with the musky aroma of the beasts who gathered within.

At the heart of the chamber, upon a raised platform, sat a beautiful muscular woman on the throne of the Empress.

Crafted from the finest ebony and adorned with gilded carvings of roaring lions, it presided over the attention of all who entered. Crimson banners bearing the sigil of the Lion Beast Clan hung from the rafters, their edges frayed from countless victories on the battlefield.

And upon the throne, regal and commanding, sat the current reigning Empress Leonia.

Leonia, the ruler of the Lion Beast Clan was the current head of the entire beast clan and she possessed a rare beauty with amber eyes that blaze like fire.

Lion cat ears adorned her head, while a cloth covered her chest and a tunic hugged her hips, revealing her muscular abs and body. Despite her imposing presence, she exuded grace and elegance, a true symbol of strength and authority among her people.

A cloak of lion fur draped across her shoulders, a symbol of her connection to the beasts of the wild.

As she surveyed her courtiers with a gaze that could pierce steel, Empress Leonia exuded an aura of hegemony.

In her presence, even the most hardened warriors bowed their heads in deference, acknowledging her as both ruler and protector of the Lion Beast Clan.

The air crackled with tension, the scent of bloodlust hanging heavy as the assembled beast races awaited her judgment. Warriors from every corner of the realm stood at attention, their muscles tense and their eyes ablaze.

"How many times did I reprimand you?"

A cold piercing voice echoed in the place.

The Beast clan was one prominent ruling clan in the outer zones that consisted of many humanoid beasts and monsters.

They were the product of ancient beasts of primal origin who could shapeshift and other races resulting in slightly inferior offspring that came to today known as beast clan.

"Don't we already have enough space? What do you want to do in a big space when all we do is fight and kill while being battle-hungry?"

At that time, the Prime Minister was a member of the jackal race and raised his humphed back and spoke.

"Your Majesty, we beasts have an intense lust for war and bloodshed. It is in our innate nature. Till now you have curbed us well but who knows which person goes on a rampage?"

Leonia frowned for a moment and tapped the armrest.

"So you suggest we occupy the human sectors."

"Yes Your Majesty, we have received information that several key figures have been killed resulting in a gap. Moreover, now human manpower is concerned with youth ceremonies. We can attack one of the sectors and plunder them."

"Your Majesty, please hear our request."

"Yes Your Majesty, our food sources are declining…The only way to proceed is to wage war. The Black Demons are pressing on us. We don't have anything for exchange."

Soon voices rose against her one after another making her frown.

Leonia then turned to the muscular Lion beast.

"Just give me an order and we will pounce on them today?"

Looking at a subtle sneer on the person, a thick vein bulged over her forehead.

How could she not know whose plans it was?

She wanted to beat that guy and kill this group of sinister bastards but her hands had been tied after all their situation was quite bad after all.

The arrangement of the universe is in the form of a layer.

The lowest part of the universe is a circular vast space consisting of stars and nothingness.

There were billions or uncountable numbers of them originating every moment.

They expand over some time and then their outer periphery touches the inner zone of the universe where they are now.

Some universes may even touch the inner zones of their life while some manage to get in touch under spatial distortion and crack.

Most of the current races in the inner zones originated from the peripheral universe due to which they have a home base or a major place of origin.

Sadly, the beast races have none.

Many of them were outcasts from other races and were pushed out from the inner core universe and took shelter here.

That's how their huge race was formed slowly and steadily.

Unfortunately, the beast might have high strength but being uncontrolled by bestial nature, they haven't developed much in terms of intelligence.

Most of them don't farm and even if they farm, they need meat to survive as grazing on plants wasn't sufficient to satisfy their hunger.

Second, unlike other races, they weren't good as craftsmen. Despite this, they were able to survive but all this changed with the advent of Black Demons.

Due to them, the farmlands had been destroyed and surrounding lands had been tainted, pushing them to the edge.

To occupy new lands they need to wage war which would be quite distratous.

Leonia sighed inwardly feeling overwhelmed.

"Jacob, and everyone. Please give me some time. It's a grave matter if we mud heads can get such information then all other races might also get it. Moreover, don't forget the Vampire Princess has been enslaved by the humans so there are chances of us being caught in a ceasefire between everyone. I have no problem allowing you all to fight but I don't want irresponsible death and casualties."

"Moreover, about resources we mostly rely on other races but if we turn out back now, with Black Demons' advent aren't we simply making more enemies."

"Allow me to think a bit and till then disperse and Jacob I know you send spies among the young generation but I warn you not to cause more trouble for me."

Following the command, everyone started to retreat but Jacob took a moment to observe Leonia retreating, and once he was out of sight, he hit the wall in anger.

"Damn! I knew it...What can I expect from that soft fucking bitch..."

"It should have been me, not that bitch..."

Jacob roared angrily.

The fight for the throne was bloody but in the end, the late Emperor passed to her sister Leonia.

This caused all Prince to attack her but instead of faltering she slaughtered everyone and took reigns, leaving only him alive due to the direct blood relation instead of being happy, he felt bursting in anger.

Who gave her the right to boss around?

And secondly, she always tried to confine the beast race.

Under repeated persuasion, they made a deal, and in each year, the new recruits of the human race and beast race would fight and in doing so it would satisfy them but what now?

They had the chance to take over human land but she was still holding back.

[Do you want the power to defeat her?"]

"Who?"

Jacob was alerted by the voice and looked around, then saw a black figure emerging out.

"Who are you? How did you barge here?"

"Gua..."

Before he could speak, the time seemed to have frozen and he wasn't able to move.

The figure landed before him and chuckled.

'I can hear your thoughts human...'

'You are thinking I am the devil here to tempt you but you are wrong...'

"I am just a heavenly observer.."

"Heavenly observation huh!"Jacob blinked in confusion, shaking his body due to suddenly being unrestrained.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I am a person who makes sure that fate follows the predetermined path."

"Make sure fate follows the predetermined path...Wait does that mean I got to be the Emperor..."

The obscure man smiled and placed his fingers on the man's forehead...

"No, that means, you have to die."

CRUNCH!"

The moment his finger touched Jacob's eyes turned blurry and his figure fell on the ground with a thud.

Then a few moments after, Jacob's figure wriggled, and as he sat up, and looked at his body a bewildered sound echoed from his lips.

"AHHHHHHH!What the hell is going on?"

"I was crossing the road when a truck hit me so why the fuck did I end up here...Okay what the hell is going on here?"

Just as he wondered, he heard a chiming sound.

Soon countless memories started flowing inside his mind.

[DING!]

[Connecting to host body..]

[Host is bound by the Supreme Dynasty System..]

"What system? What is going on?"

[Host you have reincarnated into the body of Prince of Sacred Beast Clan. The original body wanted to dethrone the Empress and become the Emperor but all of this went down the drain. Host, it's advised to take matters into your own hands cause soon the beast race would face a catastrophe and would be wiped out. And please be mindful of the human monster named Leon, he is the primary target of demise.]

"AHH?"He screamed in shock on witnessing the vision of the beast clan getting slaughtered.

Initially, his clan was able to survive but the original body rebelled, imprisoned the Empress, and later on in a way leading to another, he attracted the ire of Leon who just trampled over everything.

[Beginner gift package rewarded]
