The secret system of the Gallant Heir

In a world where magic reigns supreme and power is divided among four legendary families, a young boy named Rave Gallant is born with a destiny he never asked for. Reincarnated into the opulent and treacherous kingdom of Drodia, Rave quickly learns that his new life is far from ordinary. As the heir to the prestigious Gallant family, he is thrust into a world of political intrigue, ancient magic, and hidden dangers. From the moment of his birth, Rave’s potential is evident. On his fifth birthday, a shocking revelation rocks the kingdom: Rave is compatible with all six types of magic—a feat unheard of in Drodia’s history. While his father, the stern and powerful head of the Gallant family, warns him to conceal his abilities, Rave can’t help but feel the weight of expectation and the looming threat of those who would see him destroyed. As Rave grows, he navigates the complexities of his new world, forming alliances with the children of the other great families—Lucia, the haughty princess; Eren, the easygoing Sapien heir; Evelyn, the enigmatic Fidelis daughter; and the sharp-tongued Ischyros girl who seems to despise him. But beneath the surface of their interactions lies a web of secrets, rivalries, and ancient grudges that could shape the future of the kingdom. When a mysterious figure appears in Rave’s room one night, claiming to have waited five years for him, Rave’s life takes an even more unexpected turn. This enigmatic presence hints at a hidden system—a power beyond anything Rave has ever known—and sets him on a path to uncover the truth about his reincarnation, his unique abilities, and the role he is destined to play in the fate of Drodia. As Rave trains in secret, hones his magical prowess, and uncovers the secrets of the Gallant family, he must tread carefully. For in a world where power is both a blessing and a curse, the line between ally and enemy is razor-thin. With danger lurking around every corner and the kingdom’s future hanging in the balance, Rave must decide whether to embrace his destiny or forge his own path. The Secret System of the Gallant Heir is a tale of magic, mystery, and self-discovery, where a young boy’s journey to unlock his true potential will change the fate of an entire world.

Marked by the Ruthless Princess

In her previous life, Lina Riley harbored an unrequited love for the Fifth Princess, Victoria Ashwood. Lina sacrificed everything for her—securing her place on the throne, protecting her borders, and losing her arm and sight in the process. Yet, her loyalty was repaid with a goblet of poisoned wine and the execution of her entire family. Victoria despised her, accusing Lina of cruelty and of orchestrating her elder sister’s death, deeming her unworthy of love. When the poison took effect, Lina closed her eyes in despair, only to awaken back in the moment they first met. On that fateful day, Lina had stumbled upon Victoria being beaten by palace maids, an encounter that set everything in motion. This time, Lina turned away, choosing a different path, but a faint fragrance of plum blossoms lured her in. One reckless night led to a moment of despair when she awoke to find the coldly beautiful face of her bedmate—Lucille Everard, the Princess Regent. Lucille, while outwardly uninterested in court affairs, was notorious for her swift and decisive actions that had seen emperors replaced with alarming frequency. Compared to Lucille’s power, Lina’s past dealings with Victoria seemed like mere child's play. As Lucille stirred awake, Lina's nerves were frayed. “Given the circumstances, Your Highness, what do you think of me now?” she asked, resigned to her fate. To her surprise, Lucille chuckled softly. “I think you’re wonderful.” Stunned, Lina could only manage a confused “Huh?” From that moment, everything veered off course. Lucille's palace soon bloomed with roses—Lina’s favorite. Amidst the swaying blossoms, the resolute Princess Regent would gently take Lina’s hand, her once-frigid gaze warm and tender. “My dear Lina, you are the finest woman in the world.” In her new life, Lina often dreamed. She dreamt of someone leaving a bouquet of roses at her grave, their robes trailing the light fragrance of plum blossoms. They sipped wine with a wry smile, murmuring, “Silly girl, I avenged you.” Victoria Ashwood was reborn too. She hadn’t expected that killing Lina would provoke her aunt’s ruthless revenge. Determined to avoid a similar fate, she resolved to feign affection for Lina, even if it took a lifetime. At a palace banquet, Victoria was taken aback by Lina’s beauty. Draped in fine silks, Lina was a dazzling sight, so different from the weathered woman Victoria remembered. Drawn to her, Victoria was about to approach when she noticed Lucille at Lina’s side, gently wiping her lips with a soft smile. “Take it slow,” Lucille murmured. Lina paused, then chuckled as she adjusted a strand of Lucille’s hair. Victoria’s heart twisted in fury. When her desperate attempts to win Lina back failed, she demanded, “Why won’t you love me?” Lina sneered. “Show some respect, Fifth Princess. You should address me as Aunt. Besides, your hypocrisy and cold-heartedness make you unworthy of love.” Years ago, a young Lucille Everard encountered a lost girl in the palace gardens. The girl declared that Lucille was beautiful and promised to marry her one day. Thirteen years later, a fateful misunderstanding during a bout of poisoning entwined their paths. What began as teasing quickly turned Lucille from a hunter into prey, helplessly ensnared by the woman she never forgot. Tags: 1.

Journey of the Nature’s Heir

In a universe where countless worlds and realms are woven together by the Deity’s divine essence, there exists an artifact of unimaginable power—the Ring of the Deity. Created at the dawn of time, it holds the ability to shape reality itself, control cosmic forces, and maintain the delicate balance between light and darkness. For millennia, the ring lay hidden, its power dormant, awaiting the arrival of the one destined to wield it. On a small, inconspicuous planet, far from the heart of the Deity's realm, a sixteen-year-old boy unknowingly stands on the precipice of destiny.

As the Deity discovers the incredible power of the ring, he learns that he is the chosen heir, a being selected by the Deity to restore balance and protect the cosmos from an impending catastrophe. But the ring is not just a symbol of power—it is the key to unlocking his true potential and transforming into a being of immense strength and knowledge. With the ring, the Deity is thrust into a world beyond his comprehension, filled with ancient secrets, forgotten realms, and dangerous adversaries who will stop at nothing to claim the ring for themselves. As the Deity embarks on his journey, he must face not only external threats but also the internal struggle of understanding his true identity and the burden of his role as the universe’s protector. With each step, the boy grows stronger, more capable, and closer to realizing his destiny: to become the God of the Universe, the embodiment of balance and creation. However, this journey is not without sacrifice. As the Deity learns to wield the powers of the ring, he will be forced to confront the very nature of existence itself, questioning the cost of ultimate power and the true meaning of his mission.

Protecting the Tycoon's Heir

Wu Xiuxin almost ended her life after a tragic incident that erased all her memories, leaving her mind like a vast, dark void. However, despite being naive about her past, memories keep flashing in her head if someone provokes her to madness. Harming people would not be enough but it would definitely send them to death! Despite her situation, Wu Xiuxin wanted to go back to school, hoping that it could help her to bring back the memories that she lost a year ago. On the other hand, Madam Lu, who took accountability to her, asked for her help in exchange for her benevolence. And that is to look after her son who will become the heir of their said company. Later found out that he was involved in any illegal actions. And that is what Madam Lu wanted, to let him quit from any of it and let Wu Xiuxin befriend him, persuading him to do good things and make amends with her mother. But the moment she realized about him she couldn’t believe that the person she was assigned to look after was the person who would cause her hell and somewhat change her life. —— Xu Yuan, frightened every student he met. Despite being a troublemaker and having terrible behaviour, Xiu Yan was still able to convince and be loved foolishly by many students on campus. An unfazed and gloomy girl named Wu Xiuxin walked across the hallway without noticing the people gathering around. Her natural eyes were sharp as if it had an intent of causing harm to people that made Xu Yuan feel uncomfortable. Xu Yuan didn’t hesitate to use his foot to block her way, which caused her to fall and made an entire student in the hallway burst in laughter. Wu Xiuxin couldn’t fathom why he did humiliate her. One person lent his hand towards her but she didn’t take it. Instead, she stood with no expression at all and with full strength she raised her clenched fist and directly threw a huge blow on Xiu Yuan’s face. The students who gathered clearly saw the ridiculous scene unfold before their eyes. “Miss Wu, you will be sent to Class 12!” said the principal, after the trouble she did. Xiu Yuan and Wu Xiuxin have finally met their path once again. But why does the girl suspiciously want to be part of his group of friends? “Miss Wu, aren't you straight? ‘Cause you look cool the way you move and dress up is not like what a typical girl should be,” one of Xiu Yan’s friends remarked. “Is that so? Thank you but I’m straight.” Wu Xiuxin replied. “Miss Wu, do you uhm…” “What?” “D—Do you like girls?” “It’s up to you to think.” “Miss Wu, you can have girl friends from the other class but why do you want to be part of a group of boys?” another one asked. “Because it’s more fun together with boys.” “Miss Wu, I don’t think we have to get you to be part of the boys. Before you become part of us you still have to pass our initiation.” “Really, what is it and when?” “We torture people and only those who can survive from our bloody initiation will pass.” “Sounds great,” she commented with no expression at all. All of them looked at each other dumbfounded by her response.
