Incapacitation Form Duke

The Duke's Loyalty to the Queen

In his first life, Alexander Valtor was the feared Duke of Valtor, of the Aurelio Empire, known as the empire’s most ruthless noble. Accused of murdering his own family for power,even though he denied it he was eventually betrayed and executed, his name forever stained in history. But death was not his end. Instead, he was reborn in a completely different world—Earth. Born as Arthur Lancaster in 1918, he grew up in the United Kingdom and joined the military as World War II erupted. With the experience of his past life, he quickly rose through the ranks, becoming one of Britain’s most decorated soldiers. He served under two queens, first Queen Elizabeth I and later Queen Elizabeth II, dedicating his life to the monarchy and his country. As the highest-ranking officer in the British Army, he commanded armies, shaped wars, and became a living legend. Even in old age, his loyalty never wavered. At 105 years old, after a lifetime of service, he passed away peacefully. But when he opened his eyes again, he was back in his 16-year-old body, standing in the empire that once condemned him. This time, he has no intention of bending his knee to an emperor he does not recognize. His only allegiance is to the queens he once served, even if they don't exist in this world. Leaving behind his noble title, he walks away from the empire, determined to live by his own rules. Yet as war looms on the horizon, his instincts as a soldier refuse to stay buried. The empire does not know it yet, but the man they once feared has returned—and this time, he fights on his own terms.

The Grand Duke's Son Is A Heretic

--[WSA 2025 Entry]-- Betrayed by his sister. Betrayed by chosen one's humanity. Betrayed by the Gods. That was how the life of Leonard, the Defier of Fate and the world’s greatest heretic, came to an end. When demons invaded human lands, he received a revelation from the Goddess. She commanded him to act as a spy, to infiltrate the enemy ranks and expose their secrets for humanity’s sake. To fulfill this mission, he had to sacrifice a part of his soul. He accepted a demonic contract, surrendered his soul, and became a demonic human. Risking everything, he provided critical information to the humans and helped them turn the tide of battle. But then, he had a shocking discovery. The war was nothing but a gambit between various gods and before he could act, the war was stopped out of nowhere. In an unexpected turn, humans and demons put aside their hatred and signed a peace treaty. Before Leonard could make sense of it, he was betrayed. Both demons and humans joined hands to kill him. "Fuck! If there is a next life, I swear I will tear you gods apart!" With this scream, he thought his suffering was finally over. But… When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the body of Kael Veydrin, the son of the Grand Duke of the Heizen Empire. But this new life was no different from the last. His sister wanted to get rid of him. Born with clogged vessels and no talent, he was nothing but a disappointment. A subject of fun and ridicule among the fellow nobles. Despite rebirth, nothing seems to change. The cursed fate. The distorted history smearing his name. A world that was against him. Leonard, now assuming the identity of Kael, let out a low chuckle. "Don’t worry, Kael. I will have revenge for both of us." "They called me heretic right? I will show them how a true fucking heretic acts.” Follow Kael's journey, as he fights against the fates and injustices to drag the ones ruling above.

Reborn Regress Return: I Am the Heir of Shadows!

"Arise, Shadowmancer—defy the gods, wield the shadows of your shattered past, or be consumed by the void." I’ve died twice. Once as the prince of Avalon. Once as a soldier on Earth. Both times, I lost everything. But now, I’ve returned—a week before the world collapses. Before Earth merges with Avalon’s Fall, an online game that tears the fabric of reality, unleashing monsters and beasts into the real world, creating an apocalypse where survival demands power… or death. This time, I won’t be weak. I severed ties with the woman I failed to protect. I abandoned the person I was, hoping she might survive without me. But the world has other plans. In one month, the Devil will descend—the monstrous swordsman who has taken everything from me in every past life. This time, I hold the power of the SSSR-Rank Shadowmancer. I will command the shadows, bend them to my will. I will rise because I’m no longer the man who let fear dictate my fate. Yet nothing is perfect… The game branded me an NPC—not a player, but a pawn trapped in a system that controls my every move, limiting my growth, freedom, and humanity. Am I even real to you, Solaria? The goddess Solaria controls my fate. I don’t understand her motives, but I know she’s pulling the strings. Worse, Sena won’t stay away, bringing hope I can’t allow myself to accept… I don’t know why I was reborn, or if I’ll ever be truly free. But with my wits, my Shadows, and a power I was never meant to wield… I will defy the system and carve my own path. —------ Please show your support. This is a novel for the WSA 2025 Competition.

Duke Aragon: A Pharmacist’s Journey

In his past life, Dr. Elias Valtor was a world-renowned pharmacist, a pioneer in medicine, and a man who had dedicated his life to curing the incurable. But in the blink of an eye, he dies—only to awaken in the body of a frail, sickly young noble in a dying aristocratic house. Now, he is Duke Alexander Aragon, heir to a crumbling dukedom on the brink of collapse in the small but strategically placed Kingdom of Velmoria, nestled in a vast continent ruled by warring empires, treacherous nobles, and forgotten alchemical arts. Armed with unparalleled pharmaceutical knowledge, an analytical mind, and a ruthless will to survive, Alexander refuses to let his family fade into obscurity. With no knights, no wealth, and no allies, he starts with the one thing he knows best—medicine. He introduces revolutionary healing methods, concocts powerful elixirs, and uses his knowledge of alchemy to create remedies unheard of in this medieval world. But in a land where magic and potions are monopolized by the powerful, his innovations shake the foundations of society. The royal court watches with suspicion, rival nobles plot against him, and the mysterious Mage Guild seeks to control his talents. As he cures the incurable, saves soldiers on the battlefield, and amasses influence through commerce and medicine, he realizes that healing alone won't be enough—he must play the game of politics, wield power like a scalpel, and carve out a future for House Aragon. From humble apothecary to feared noble, from the sickly boy to the master of life and death, Duke Alexander Aragon will rise. And in a world where both magic and medicine can be weapons, he will become a force that neither kings nor empires can ignore. The journey of a fallen noble, a forgotten house, and a man who wields knowledge like a sword begins now.

The Enigmatic Demon Duke's Desire

The next day I woke up, I am now the fiancé of the Duke of Dubois Castle, or known as Lemon. “I am a demon who lives by desire and greed, you have yielded with the contract that you have exchanged with your life?” “Then what do you want?” “I want the whole of you Veta Le Blanchet, not just your blood, heart and soul, it is the whole of you.” Theroux Claude, the third prince of the kingdom. “Lady Le Blanchet, just how can you stand still this demon duke? If you ever get tired of him, you are always welcome to my palace.” Another troublesome man, my childhood friend when I was at the academy, Durand Gagnon. “I have attained this nickname not just because I follow all his Majesty’s order, but because I want to have a stronghold in the knight position so that I can support you my Lady, remember that my oath is only for you.” Then, what is my cousin thinking that he would say such things? “Sister, I have finally inherited the title of the Baron, please come back to our fief, and I will make sure to bring back the glory of our family!” As I try to relinquish the past, the more troublesome it becomes. Is clinging to the tiny bit of my life a wrong choice? And why is the temple spying on me? “Lady Le Blanchet is the only descendant of the family, you shouldn’t involve yourself farther with the Demon Duke.” “It’s done my Lady, as long as it is you, I can give everything, even if I destroy this Kingdom.” Hold on, just what on earth this demon wants from me?

Profane Empress of Obsession

"Oh, My beloved Scarlet flame... Burn to your heart's content!" "Your wicked embers soothe and mend my broken heart and shattered spirit." "On that day, you took everything from me." "Tell me..." "Divine Emperor, do you regret it now?" "As your cities and people burn?" "Divine Emperor!" "This Regina el Ingnus is no longer weak or afraid!" "Her Scarlet Flames of Wrath will judge your sins." A woman staggered forward, tripping on burning rubble, her bloodstained hands slipping as she tripped. Her luscious hair was blonde like the radiant sun, while her eyes were like the blue sea. She stood frozen as the merciless flames danced across her eyes as if mocking her survival and weakness. Her body was still, watching silently as her beautiful village burned. All that remained was a ruined village bathing in the everlasting fires of avarice. All because she was a Holy Maiden. They were a blessed existence to the Kingdom, a cursed existence to the Empire. They were known as the Holy Maiden to the Holy Church of Amora, Goddess of the moon and fertility. But merely known as the Whore of Sin to the Empire and their Divine Son, rumoured to be descendants of the God of the sun and Justice. The Holy Maiden was an existence that was born only once in every 2,000,000 people. A Holy maiden had a powerful affinity for all magic, and increased physical capabilities, usually appearing as an ethereal and charming woman with both male and female reproductive organs. However, they were infertile due to a curse. The Divine Son was born the same year as the Holy Maiden. The Goddess Amora and the God Zelmot were bitter enemies, constantly at war; after suffering a close defeat, Zelmot created a curse that would torment all future Holy Maidens. As if to spite the goddess of fertility, Zelmot stained her beloved daughters with the curse of infertility. In revenge, Amora cursed the Divine Son of Zelmot. He would become enchanted and fall deeply in love with the Holy Maiden, eventually growing insane with their love towards her. The ancient texts rumoured that if the Divine Son lost to the Holy Maiden, he would become a female forever devoted to the Maiden. But if the Holy Maiden were to lose, she would lose her ability to use magic and become frail and hideous, like a monster. When the Divine Church of Justice learned of this truth, they began to hunt down ALL that displayed similarities with the Holy Maiden; this dark period of the Empire... Its given name was "The Purge of the Red Moon" After its 3,000-year history, the Kingdom has failed to protect and save a single Holy Maiden from death, abuse, torture or torment. Their only achievement was to stop the Divine Son from being the killer. In contrast, the Empire still worships the Divine Son's return each time one is born. At this moment, the Empire rode away, convinced of another victory. However, a female figure shambled forward with bated breath and a broken heart. Regina El Ignis, heiress of Baron Maxim El Ignis. Lord of the small village and land surrounding Ignia, bordering the Empire. She stumbled forward, Taking her first steps as the Holy Maiden of Scarlet Flames. "Alceste, my beloved... can you hear my lament, feel my love for you as I cut down our enemies?" The maiden stands on a pile of burnt corpses, her body twirling as if dancing on their corpses, a twisted smile upon her face. Armed with a giant black sword and scarlet flames, seven women wielding various magic accompany her as she steps forward like a fairy of brutal death. "They call me the Scarlet Empress of Obsession..." "However, My dear witches of calamity! I became Empress only for you~."
