Hubble Duke

I was reincarnated as the son of the strongest duke.

When I opened my eyes for the first time in this hell, I thought I was trapped in a nightmare… but no, nightmares aren’t delivered with this level of detail. The sky was gray, like a tattered strip of ash from tormented souls. The air was heavy, as if the world itself breathed blood instead of oxygen. And more importantly… I’m not on Earth. I am Nir Verton. Son of the Duke of Shadows. The Verton family—the name whispered by nations before they sleep, feared even by those who do not know what fear means. Ah yes, Nir Verton… the calm, noble, perfect young man who’s supposed to be the centerpiece of this ridiculous story. But what is the story, exactly? A romance novel. Yes, romance. A tale written with roses, innocent scenes, and gazes that last for pages—where the heroine, Ayla, falls in love with me after three lines and ten chapters of exchanged smiles. Did I mention I despise this kind of story? I can’t stand it. I don’t believe in love made of sugar, or tears polished in golden light. But the worst part? I’m stuck in Nir’s body—the boy who smiles like he’s never known pain, while I scream on the inside. What’s expected of me? To be the heroine’s lover? To melt her heart with a smile and a flower? To hold her close while the towers collapse and whisper, “The world will be alright”? No. To hell with that. This world is leaning toward ruin, and I am no savior. I’m just an intruder in the body of the heir to a terrifying family, trapped within the threads of a story I didn’t write—and I won’t act it out the way they want. I am not Nir Verton. But since everyone believes I am... Let’s see how far I can twist your happy ending.

Time-Travel to the Medieval: A Fantasy Adventure of an American Girl

Emily Smith, a 22-year-old history student from a university in Los Angeles, accidentally travels back to 13th-century England. She unknowingly enters a strange "Fate Correction System" and is sent into an ancient legend as the female lead. According to the system, the original owner of this world shares the same name as Emily. She was an unloved noblewoman, and according to fate, she was supposed to have a one-night affair with the most powerful Duke of England, Edmund de Montfort, on a full moon night. This led to an unexpected pregnancy and her expulsion from her family. Five years later, she was to return with her genius son, going through some struggles before reconciling with the Duke, eventually being treated like a queen. However, due to a system malfunction, the original owner learned about her fate in advance and deliberately avoided the Duke, disrupting the balance of the world. Therefore, Emily was tasked with fixing this. The system arranged for Emily to be sent to the night when she was supposed to meet the Duke — after a grand castle banquet. According to the plan, she would mistakenly enter the wrong room after drinking wine laced with aphrodisiac herbs. An hour later, as the system watched Emily lying on the bed, flushed with color, it asked, "Host, when will you carry out your mission?" Emily replied slowly, "Wait, let me first get used to the clothes of this era... This corset is killing me." Five hours later, the system, seeing Emily finally get up, urged, "Host, it’s not too late! The Duke is in the tower next door, his door isn’t locked because of a broken lock. You need to go now!" Emily casually pushed open the door next door, and found herself face to face with Edmund de Montfort, the Duke, who was handling estate matters under candlelight. The system was excited: "Go for it, Host!" Edmund furrowed his brow, coldly saying, "Who are you? How dare you break into my private chamber?" Emily looked at the plate of delicate honey cakes on his desk and couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. "I’m your wife, five years from now." "I’ve answered your question. Can I have a reward now? A piece of cake, the one on your left, it looks so sweet." Edmund hesitated for a moment before nodding and ringing a bell to summon a servant. "Bring another plate of honey cakes, the best ones." The system: "…" Edmund couldn’t forget the mysterious woman who had broken into his room. At a grand royal ball, they met again. This time, Emily was drunk and staggered over, hugging him tightly and refusing to let go. Edmund smirked: "Is this some trick of ‘catching me by pretending to be weak’?" Before long, Emily’s little brother appeared, apologizing and trying to pull her away. "Sorry, Duke de Montfort, my sister recently... um... has a strange condition where she believes she's a forest animal and wants to hug tall people for warmth." Edmund was silent for a moment. "It’s fine. I’ll reluctantly endure it." Little brother: "Are you sure?" Edmund: "Yes." An hour later… "Miss Emily, could you wake up?" "My legs are numb." "…" After giving up on Emily for a while, the system returned to fix the aftermath. But it discovered something unexpected: Emily’s biased noble parents were no longer biased and had completely turned into doting parents. The originally villainous younger brother did not go down an evil path but instead became the most popular court poet. The original cannon fodder female antagonist had become Emily's sister, and they were running a business together in harmony. As for the male lead, Duke Edmund, he had long since embraced his beautiful wife, pampering her like a treasure. The entire medieval world ran smoothly with no signs of collapse. System: "How did she do it? By eating, sleeping, and modern-day ideas??" Modern American girl’s laid-back life vs. the high-and-cold Duke’s broken persona. The original world fell apart, and in the new world, everyone got a fresh start.
