Chapter 85: Release Announcement
Hello everyone! I’m really glad to meet you all and I’m truly grateful for your support, which has allowed Veer and me to come this far.
(A sincere bow~)
I must say, I’m overwhelmed with a myriad of emotions.
Well, let’s not dwell on the past; let’s talk about the Little Phoenix.
Friends who know me might be aware that the idea for Veer’s book actually came to me last year while I was writing *Sword and Fire*.
However, because I was too lazy… it was just a thought at the time, and I didn’t start writing it until this year.
In truth, I’m not someone particularly skilled at storytelling. Every sentence in the novel is carefully pondered over many times. For me, conceptualizing is enjoyable, but the process of bringing it to life is quite tedious, painful, and lonely.
Before starting the book, I asked myself, why do I write?
Do I want to write a story that I myself like? Do I want to leave my mark in a fantastical world? Or do I want to see the girl I’ve created grow stronger and more beautiful day by day? Or is it simply because I have an overflow of energy daily and seek recognition from others?
But still, I wrote down the four characters for Verafia, and I’m thankful to everyone for enabling me to reach this point again.
Veer’s story was written during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Coincidentally, just as I was posting the chapters, the environment for gender-bending stories also took a turn for the worse (I even once feared I wouldn’t get a contract) to the extent that I felt this might be my last book.
However, with everyone’s support, the Little Phoenix has achieved this success (which was quite a pleasant surprise for me). I’ve read every comment and critique carefully—thank you all for letting me know that Veer is loved.
Finally, let me conclude with Veer’s synopsis: Dawn will be born from the flames.
——
Now that I’ve poured out my feelings, let me explain the rules for additional chapters. For now, let’s say that for every 50 monthly votes or 5k fire scrolls, I’ll add one more chapter?
(If it’s any more, I definitely won’t be able to finish writing, you know)
Veer: What? We’re going up already? But, I’m not ready for this yet… I beg you all to give me your first subscription; if you don’t… sniff, I’ll cry in front of you!

I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess?!
身为勇者的我竟然成了凤凰大小姐
From the travel diaries of a Phoenix Princess reborn from the inferno, chronicling her life on the road with a supposedly “useless” young hero…
On their journey, their fellowship continues to grow: a Dragon Princess of silver frost, a young Vampire Princess with eyes of blood-crimson, the Saintess of Radiant Holy Light, the noble Princess of the White Iris…
“Hmm?” Verafia paused, tilting her head as she gracefully twirled a soft strand of her fiery hair around a finger. A hint of suspicion flickered in her beautiful eyes. “Ignet, why does this sound suspiciously like you’re assembling a harem?”
“My lady, there is a saying: ‘The fish is what I desire, and the bear’s paw is also what I desire.’ A wise man knows that if he can have them both, his home will be harmonious and all his affairs will prosper,” he began, puffing out his chest with the air of a profound philosopher. “Is that not a truly beautiful thing? A… a paragon of peaceful coexistence?”
He faltered under her smoldering gaze.
“…Ahhh! It was a joke! I’m sorry, Milady, please don’t burn me! I swear my only desire is you!”
