I'm Trying To Go Broke, So Why Do I Keep Getting Richer?!

Leo had a problem. Don't be like Leo! It wasn't that he was poor. It wasn't that he was unlucky. It was that he had been cursed, or blessed by the Accidental Tycoon System. The rules were deceptively simple. Any money he lost on an investment would be returned to him, doubled. His life's new mission was crystal clear. He had to go bankrupt. In a high-tech world of S-Rank Heroes, magic, and newly-contacted alien civilizations, this should have been the easiest thing to achieve in the galaxy. He just had to become the biggest, most spectacular loser the universe had ever seen. So, he tried. Oh, how he tried... He threw billions at publishing a dungeon guide written by a 10-year-old. The maps were in crayon, and it listed the final boss as a Big Grumpy Badger. [Breaking: New S-Rank dungeon called 'The Whispering Labyrinth' appears! All high-tech mapping drones fail. A lost F-Rank porter used the crayon guide... and it's 100% accurate. The final boss is a 50-foot divine badger. The Galactic Union has declared the guide a 'holy text' for exploration!] He bought the galaxy's most useless moon, planning to build a 'Museum of Paint'. [Alert: Ancient magical ley-lines discovered under the moon's surface! It's the only place in the universe that can safely grow the 'Star-Lotus,' the key ingredient for immortality!] To the Intergalactic Hero's Guild, the Magic Academies, and the Alien Federations, Leo was the god of investment whose every move was like 5D chess that ordinary people couldn't understand. Heroes would soar with his sponsorship. Alien emperors offered him their daughters' hands in marriage for a single 'tip'. But Leo just stared at his bank account, which now displayed his wealth that he couldn't use on himself, with tears streaming down his face. "Please," he cried, "I'm trying to fail! Why won't you just let me be poor?!"

Rewritten in Ice and Blood

Ten years before the world of Eternal Dominion is meant to begin, a man from the modern world awakens in a body already doomed. Valen Arkwright, eldest son of the northernmost county, heir to a frozen land of wolves, war, and betrayal has been stabbed in his own bed and left for dead. In the original timeline, his death is nothing more than a footnote, a convenient tragedy that allows his younger stepbrother to claim the title of Count under the guidance of a ruthless stepmother. But this time, Valen survives. Armed with memories of a game he once mastered and knowledge of a future soaked in blood, the man reborn as Valen refuses to accept a scripted death. As civil war erupts across the snowbound north, he must rise from betrayal and weakness to reclaim his throne—by steel, strategy, and unforgiving resolve. Surrounded by enemies wearing the faces of family, Valen navigates a court where every smile hides a blade and loyalty is bought with blood. Ancient powers stir beneath the ice, long-forgotten bloodlines awaken, and the northern land itself seems to respond to his defiance. Between brutal battles and political intrigue, dangerous women enter his path each carrying desire, ambition, and secrets capable of reshaping his fate. In a world where power is seductive and survival demands dominance, passion becomes both a weapon and a weakness. To rewrite the future, Valen must embrace the cruelty of the north, claim the strength buried in his blood, and shatter the destiny written for him. Because this time, the noble meant to die will take the throne. And the world will remember his name.
