The Duchess Wants To Retire

"Mr. Kira, many people believe that the current dueling environment has become increasingly toxic, with dominant trends of heavy traps and defensive, closed-off playstyles. They say this unhealthy atmosphere was brought about by you, as the new generation's Duel King. What do you think about this?" a reporter asked during an interview. "Slander! Pure slander!" Kira was angered by this accusation. "Why say it was me who started this?" "Dueling has always been like this!" It's not his fault. Who let him play Yu-Gi-OH!

Logan spent five years writing a fantasy novel barely anyone read, only to die pitifully. After accepting a contract with the goddess of lust, he opened his eyes again to realise he was inside that very novel… as a disposable extra. Worse still, he arrived at the worst possible moment. The night the powerful Evernight family is massacred. As Logan struggles to survive the unfolding catastrophe, a mysterious system suddenly appears before his eyes. But the system isn’t normal. It doesn’t grant power. It doesn’t give abilities. Instead, it gives a single, absurd condition. Only by forming intimate bonds with the mothers of the story’s heroines can Logan awaken powerful Origin Paths. In the original story, the protagonist conquered countless beauties. But this time? Logan plans to rewrite the entire fate of the world—starting with the women who were never meant to be part of the story. Saving fallen noblewomen. Manipulating the academy’s future elites. Unraveling conspiracies hidden beneath the empire. And conquering the most dangerous women in the world. Because in this twisted new timeline… The fate of the world might depend on the mothers instead.

Aren Vale had one year left. One year to escape the cycle of survival jobs, eviction notices, and the slow drowning that came from being gutter-born in the sovereign state of Veltrion. He'd tried before. Dropped out of Aetherium Academy's Ascension Year at seventeen, working nights, sleeping through days, watching his grades slide from promising to invisible. Six months later, he hit bottom in a free clinic with exhaustion and a letter that said: Thirty days. Pay or vacate. Then he woke up again. One month before exams. Body younger. Memories intact. A second chance without explanation. And something else. Something waiting. [SOVEREIGN PROTOCOL INITIALIZING...] A system that doesn't grant power—it reveals capability. No combat levels. No fantasy mana. Just tasks, growth, and the brutal mathematics of impact: help yourself by creating value for others. Learn faster. Decide smarter. Build something that lasts. But Veltrion doesn't reward merit easily. The Spire-lords hoard opportunity. The Lattice of finance and power runs on connections Aren doesn't have. And his "non-cooperative" withdrawal from Aetherium left bridges burned, doors closed, and administrators who remember his name. The system offers structure. Stability. A path from Stage 1 Foundation to Stage 5 Sovereign through knowledge, business, and social impact. What it can't offer is trust. Relationships. The willingness to need someone. Aren has thirty days to re-enroll, rebuild, and prove the statistics wrong—the ones that say ninety-four percent of users abandon the Protocol within ninety days. He's been abandoned before. By institutions. By people. By his own hope. This time, the system stays. The question is whether he can. Progression | Contemporary | Psychological | Drama From gutter to Spire. From invisible to undeniable. From potential to protocol.

“Let’s go gambling!” he said. Unaware that his decision to gamble for the first time would become the best decision of his life. The reward that would change his life arrived together with a sound— [Ding!] ......
