kingdombuilding

A corrupt King sits the throne. The last generation of heroes have gone extinct. The lands are as green and as promising as they ever were. The Gods watch with interest and they wait. As next the next uprising comes from the most unlikely of places. A slow burn novel.

“Ruling is the duty of oversight, to oversee instead of create. To govern instead of live. It came with power and prestige, with obligation and responsibility. Soldiers fought and farmers farmed, but to be King is to rule. To maintain the illusion of power one’s forefathers had built. Marcus didn’t care for any of it. He saw magic when he first opened his eyes, and nothing else ever compared. But the King is old and he an only child. Decisions had to be made. Important, hard decisions. No one expected much of him. Not in regards to anything but magic. They were right not to. Until the cube. Until it taught him what life meant for people not born into nobility, and that all his skill with the arcane did not make him immortal. That running from problems did not, in fact, make them go away. Marcus Sepsimus Lannoy—Marcus to the friends he did not have—touched something he should not have on the day he planned to run from his problems.” Inspiration taken from The Menocht Loop, A Practical Guide to Evil and everything else I have ever read in my life. But mostly the first two, though not overly much from either. Concepts and the like. I hope to do them justice. Am I rambling? I feel like I’m rambling.

In this continent ruled by thousand-year-old families, bloodline means everything. Glory, power, even the right to survive—are all decided by birth. But I am only a hunter’s descendant. No noble blood. No inheritance. No future. So how do I climb to the highest seat of power and join this deadly feast of thrones? A broken golden finger? A glimpse of the future? Or just sheer, ruthless luck? One thing is certain—this game belongs to those who dare to defy fate.

"Love Kingdom" In a world where strength is revered and mediocrity is scorned, Nicolas Confdo is nothing special. A middle-rank human noble with average power, he endures a life of constant humiliation in the Light Country. After a final, devastating public disgrace, he renounces his name and title, casting aside his old life to become a nameless adventurer. But Nicolas harbors a secret. Awakening within him is a forbidden, overwhelming magic known as "Soul-Weaver's Desire"a power that allows him to rewrite the will of women, binding them to him in a state of blissful, absolute devotion. What begins as a means of survival quickly becomes an all-consuming ambition. Rejecting the fragile world that rejected him, Nicolas embarks on a dark and epic conquest. He turns his power not just on individual foes, but on entire nations. One by one, the proud races of Saturn fall before him. The elegant Elf Queen, the fierce Wolf-warrior, the cunning Cat-spy all see their will erased and replaced with an unshakable, loving loyalty to their new Master. He forges a new kingdom from the ashes of the old, a gilded cage paradise he names the "Love Kingdom". It is a nation with a single, unbreakable law: absolute devotion to Nicolas.

Within its borders, love is the only currency, and disobedience is punishable by a painful, magical death. This is the story of his rise from a disgraced noble to the absolute ruler of a planet-sized harem. It is a tale of dark desire, ultimate power, and the creation of a twisted paradise where one man's word is law, and his love is the only thing that matters.

Welcome to planet Talvaris, your generic isekai world filled with magic, dragons, and voluptuous female elves who look like they escaped from an illustrators search history. Everything here is as beautiful as the goddess Celes envision it, if you just ignore the slavery and racism on the corner. Unfortunately, maintaining this picturesque fantasy realm costs divine power. Luckily for the goddess, divine power can be charged by the Talvarians' prayer. And nothing beats the high-quality prayer of a Talvarian during the act of killing or being killed. That’s why the occasional demon invasions are needed, oh and the OP otherworlder hero is also needed to tone down the invasion. Nobody wants the sweet Talvarians to get wiped out, right? But this time the celestial HR department makes a mistake. Alex Solomon is not a teenager, not handsome, and definitely not a Japanese. He is just a regular pot belly millennials who spend most of his time looking at the screen every day, just like the one who reading this now. Totally doesn't meet the goddess's standards. Hence, the beautiful but angry goddess cursed Alex Solomon to become an orc and banish him to the Demon Kingdom with nothing but a ability to access Earth internet. Stuck among demons, Alex Solomon decide if the goddess wants him to be a monster, he’ll be the worst kind possible – a monster with ideas. Armed with memes, wikipedia articles, and misquoted great thinker, he and the demon army set out on a quest for revenge by doing the most disruptive thing that have been proven on earth: Building world peace, freedom, and democracy across Talvaris. One Tomahawk missile at a time.

From overworked corporate slave to… the fat niece of a future villain? At twenty-three, my life ended in the most ironic way possible—drowning in a lake while reading an online romance novel. When I woke up, I wasn’t just alive—I was inside that very novel. And worse, not as the princess or the healer or even the tragic maid. No. I woke up as Seraphine Agro, the silver-haired, chubby niece of the story’s main villain, Duke Tayler Agro—the man who would one day summon a famine, experiment on peasants, and get publicly executed. Awesome. Now I’m stuck in a half-collapsed mansion with stale soup, a broken “Duke” father who’s too kind for his own good, and an entire kingdom collapsing into plague and hunger. And to make things worse, the hero of the story—the dangerously handsome knight Sir Alex Canva—is on his way to inspect our lands. I know the plot. I know who dies. And I’m not planning to go quietly. Armed with sarcasm, stubbornness, and a questionable diet, I’m rewriting destiny—one disastrous choice at a time.

With limited time, a small private army, and two trusted allies—Jessy and Ray—Marcus must survive the coming storm. But survival isn’t enough. With his knowledge, wealth, and his growing army of the dead, he plans not just to endure the apocalypse… But to rule it. ---------------------------- ‎If you’d like to support the story and get early access to chapters, consider joining my Patreon: ‎ patreon.com/xavien1

Now she's a fallen noblewoman whose clan was executed as scapegoats for a certain prince's rebellion. At just fourteen years old, she's become the target of a powerful being that wants her body. With the Emperor also wanting her dead, she's being hunted by the entire empire. A fugitive and utterly alone, how will she survive in this increasingly dangerous world?

Accused of treason. Family executed. Stripped of his title. Banished to a barren land where no lord could possibly survive. But for him, exile is not the end— it’s the beginning. Once an engineer in another world, he was reborn as the sole heir of a noble house. Gifted with extraordinary magical talent, he discovered that magic was nothing more than science waiting to be systemized. Where others saw spells, he saw formulas. Where others saw miracles, he saw machines. With a fief on the edge of ruin, peasants on the brink of starvation, and hostile neighbors waiting for his downfall, he begins quietly building— not armies of knights, but an industry of magic and steel. Runes become circuits. Mana becomes fuel. Workshops become factories. And the cornerstone of a new civilization begins to rise in exile. Yet he must remain low-key. For the kingdom’s politics are cruel, and nobles fear what they do not understand. Warriors and mages sharpen their blades, and even the church whispers heresy. But while they laugh at the forgotten lord in the wastelands, they will soon tremble at the silent revolution he has begun.
