The Xiao family, known as the poorest amongst the mountaineers had just spent all their savings as dowry for a daughter-in-law, who was disfigured, dark, skinny, and mute. Mocked as the ugliest bride within miles, she eventually had enough of a life in poverty and escaped, only to fall in the hands of rogues who murdered her. When she opened her eyes again, her soul was now that of a killer's, and her disfigurement was healed while her unhealthily tanned skin was now fair as day.... And she could also talk! As she became the most beautiful bride. Villagers kept their distance from the Xiao family, claiming that they were jinxes. But despite her poverty, the bride was fortunate to have a loyal mountaineer husband who spoiled her to bits. Hence, the bride guided her husband to riches, buying farms and tending to them diligently, while starting a family to gain riches through blood and sweat.

Set in an alternate wizarding world shaped by a matriarchal society, this story reimagines the familiar backdrop of Hogwarts and its surrounding conflicts. Power is inherited through the female line, and pureblood families fiercely guard their legacy amidst growing tensions with Muggleborns. The imbalance in the number of witches and wizards has made pureblood males valuable but objectified commodities, intensifying the social and political struggles within the magical world. At the heart of the story is Arcturus Regulus Black, the reincarnated son of Regulus Black. Carrying memories of a past life, Arcturus refuses to follow in the footsteps of Holly Potter, the female equivalent of the Boy Who Lived. Instead, his ambition is to break free from the constraints of his birthright, gaining power to rewrite his destiny in a society where he is marginalized by virtue of his gender. Arcturus is not alone in his reincarnation. Ronda Weasley, the female reincarnation of Ron, and Serena Prince, the female reincarnation of Severus Snape, navigate their own struggles as they reconcile their former lives with the constraints and expectations of this matriarchal world. The group faces questions of identity, legacy, and loyalty, balancing their memories of the past with the possibilities of the present. Their journey unfolds against a backdrop of political turmoil. Holly Potter, destined to fight Voldemort, plays the central role in a fight that echoes the original timeline but is subtly altered by the presence of the reincarnated souls. Simultaneously, the enigmatic Aurora Malfoy—Draco's older sister and another reincarnated soul—must contend with her family's legacy in this transformed world. Meanwhile, Hogwarts, led by Alba Dumbledore, becomes a battleground of ideologies. Dumbledore, though a figure of wisdom, unconsciously upholds the traditions of the matriarchy, while Gellert Grindelwald rises as a voice for men’s rights, creating an additional layer of conflict. The struggle between these ideologies mirrors the broader fight against Voldemort, adding complexity to the characters’ decisions. In a story that mixes politics, societal critique, and the power of memory, the young protagonists confront questions of whether to preserve the world they now inhabit or risk everything to reshape it. Their choices will define the fate of the wizarding world, testing the limits of friendship, power, and identity in a society where nothing is as it once was. Note, this story will NOT have R18 scenes at least for the first volume, if it then does, there will be a tag and you can pass. To summarize this world, it's a matriarchal version of the Harry Potter world while the muggle world remains the same. With all this shit, there are half a dozen reincarnated people of all age (mostly Hogwarts's students) who will make butterfly effects while trying to adapt to this world, including the MC. I decided to write this book as a study, I wanted to see what would happen if I decided to create parameters according to the book and then I would try adding variables to see the changes. The result is that the world is a matriarchy which thus led me to add parameters to explain the reason as to why it's a matriarchy and then to add seven reincarnated persons who will each add butterfly effects.

Pride? Honor? What do those words even mean? I’ve never felt the need to indulge in such fleeting emotions. As long as I can survive another day, nothing else matters. Fame, power, wealth, even the affection of women—I’ll throw them all away in an instant if it means I can take just one more breath of freedom. The only thing that drives me now is the desperate need to escape this unrelenting enslavement. Magic has returned to the world. Divine artifacts, long thought to be lost, have resurfaced, bringing with them nothing but chaos. The gods have descended upon us, enslaving humanity and forcing us into their merciless game—the “God Games.” A cruel competition where we, the powerless, are nothing more than pawns on a living chessboard. Manipulated, controlled, and discarded for the gods’ amusement. But I am no pawn. I refuse to accept my fate. I will fight tooth and nail for my freedom. I will sacrifice everything—my pride, my honor, my humanity—if it means I can escape this nightmare and carve out a life of my own. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that survival is all that matters. And no matter the cost, I will live. —— Chapters 1-30 are primarily prologues building up to the first main arc. There will be world-building, action, betrayal, kingdom-building, and world-hopping, - Tags: Fantasy, Male MC, Schedule: 4 Chapters a week. (Unless I’m ill or stuff happens) Chapter length: 1300-3700 words Warning: The MC is not a forgiving character. He is not merciful and does not go around saving people in distress; he is an MC who only cares about himself; if you are looking for otherwise, this isn’t your cup of tea. This MC will have Character development, but he would be classified as an anti-hero, villain
