Love of Fortune and Steel is a historical fantasy that weaves together romance, comedy, adventure, and the clash of worlds. James, a modern-day banker with an unwavering passion for history, experiences an extraordinary transformation during a routine museum visit. A mysterious supernatural force transmigrates him into a parallel medieval realm—a world familiar yet distinctly altered with its own unique nations, rulers, customs, and the presence of mana, a mystical energy that enhances martial prowess. In this enigmatic land, James encounters Bisera, a formidable and strikingly beautiful general of the Vakerian Empire, locked in a desperate struggle against the powerful Gillyrian Empire. Utilizing items granted by the supernatural entity, James saves Bisera’s life. Grateful and believing him to be a divine emissary sent by the Universal Spirit in response to her prayer, Bisera invites James to join her in defending the Vakerian Empire. As two souls isolated by their disparate worlds, a profound romance swiftly ignites between them. However, Bisera’s devout faith and the heavy burden of her responsibilities compel her to restrain their relationship, fearing that any overt passion might conflict with her duties and incur the wrath of the Universal Spirit, condemning their souls and the Vakerian Empire to ruin. James, enthralled by Bisera’s personality and talent, finds himself irresistibly drawn to her, yet frustrated by the invisible barriers she maintains. The vast differences in their worldviews and customs, coupled with James’s determination to return to his own world—an eventuality that might irrevocably separate them—act as chains on their blossoming love. With his modern knowledge and items, along with Bisera’s reliance on him, James quickly becomes an invaluable asset to the Vakerian Empire. However, this also makes him a target of Vakerian court politics and Gillyrian diplomacy. Their bond is further tested with the arrival of Saralta, a bold and free-spirited cavalry commander from the Vakerian steppes. In stark contrast to Bisera’s reserved and devout nature, Saralta pursues James with unbridled confidence and charm, challenging Bisera’s deeply held beliefs. Saralta’s liberal approach to love ignites a complex and often comical love triangle, forcing Bisera to confront her fear of losing James to Saralta’s advances and her greater dread of endangering their souls should they succumb to their feelings. As the Gillyrian onslaught intensifies, James, Bisera, and Saralta are swept into a maelstrom of love, duty, and faith. Bisera grapples with her unwavering sense of duty and steadfast faith, torn by the love that binds her to James. Saralta oscillates between the allure of freedom and the demands of propriety. Meanwhile, James must navigate his deep emotional devotion to Bisera and his fiery physical attraction to Saralta, all while striving to find a way between the two worlds before losing them both.

Deep in the heart of Elandrial, away from the bustling cities and grand kingdoms, within the intricate maze of the Underrealm, Kael lived in shadows. A Cavedweller by birth, his heritage was one of mystery, often whispered about in legends but seldom encountered. Kael wasn't ordinary, even by Cavedweller standards. His veins pulsed with the ancient art of sword magic, a legacy passed down through secretive lineages. When he danced with his blade, it shimmered with arcane energies, cutting not just through flesh but through the very fabric of magic itself. This talent, however potent, was a double-edged sword. It made him a beacon for those hungry for power, so he hid it, fearing its allure. His days consisted of exploring the depths, unearthing relics of a bygone era, and practicing his swordplay in concealed caverns. Solitude was his chosen companion until fate intervened. One evening, while navigating a previously unexplored tunnel, Kael stumbled upon a scene that would shatter his isolated existence. There, in a hidden cavern illuminated by bioluminescent fungi, representatives of the Obsidian Empire were engaged in a covert exchange with enigmatic figures - the Voidwalkers from the abyss. The traded object was a pulsating dark crystal, the "Abyssal Heart", radiating an eerie energy that even Kael, from his concealed vantage point, could feel. Intrigued yet cautious, Kael decided to intervene. Drawing upon his sword magic, he attempted to disrupt the exchange. But the Voidwalkers, beings of ancient magic, sensed his presence. A battle ensued, where shadows clashed with the gleam of the blade. But the numbers were against Kael, and he was forced to retreat, but not before witnessing the Obsidian Empire successfully obtaining the Abyssal Heart. Understanding the gravity of what had transpired, Kael knew he couldn't remain a silent observer. The Abyssal Heart's power in the hands of the Obsidian Empire would bring forth a darkness that Elandrial had never seen. His first attempt to warn the higher realms led him to the Stone Trolls of Thunder Reach. Historically reclusive, they were known for their mastery over earth magics. But as Kael approached their majestic mountain citadel, he witnessed its annihilation. The Obsidian Empire, powered by the abyss, had struck their first blow, leaving Thunder Reach in ruins. Devastated yet determined, Kael pushed forward. He sought the Moon Dancers of Lorianel, hoping their affinity for lunar magic could counteract the Abyssal Heart's malevolence. It was here he met Luna, a skilled Moon Dancer. Sensing the truth in Kael's words, Luna pledged her support. Together, they journeyed to Seraphina, seeking the Sun Whisperers' aid. This is where Solan, a Sun Whisperer with a fiery spirit, joined their ranks. The trio, each representing a unique aspect of Elandrial's magic, became the realm's unlikely defenders. As they ventured across the vast landscapes, from the shimmering shores of Maelstrome’s Rift to the floating islands of Celestial Shadows, they rallied allies. The Maelstrome Dominion, seeing the threat posed by the abyss, provided naval support. The ethereal beings of the Celestial Shadows lent their knowledge of ancient prophecies, hinting at the Abyssal Heart's origin and possible countermeasures. Their journey took them through the Glimmering Groves and the Skaldorian Foothills, battling Obsidian scouts and abyssal creatures. In these skirmishes, Aria, a rogue Mage from the Virelia Republic with unparalleled knowledge of arcane arts, saved them. Recognizing a shared purpose, she joined their quest. But time was against them. The Obsidian Empire's shadow spread, consuming realms and bending them to their dark will. The abyss, sensing Elandrial's weakening defenses, grew bolder, with its creatures becoming more frequent and aggressive.

It all happened so abruptly. After finally grasping my situation, I found myself in an entirely different world. Looking around, I noticed others in the same predicament… Could this possibly be one of those Hero developments? Was there a tyrannical Demon Lord needing extermination, or would I be tossed into the maelstrom of war? Whatever it was, I was afraid. I never wanted to be a Hero. I don’t want to harm another…… Ignore the nonsense I was spouting; there was nothing to fret over. The Demon Lord was slain a thousand years ago, and 800 years had passed since the last war. The nobles didn’t treat us summoned like tr*sh; instead, we were kindly cared for. The Demons have been on good terms with Humans for some time now. Dangers, such as monsters, were being taken care of by the Guild and the Order of Knights. What’s more surprising is the fact that I wasn’t even a hero! Instead, I was unintentionally summoned! It also turns out that this world was a world in which the three races, the Spirit World’s Magical Races, the Celestial World’s Divine Races, and the Mortal World’s Human Races, are kind neighbours. Here, everyone lives a peaceful and fulfilling life. In summary, this other world was――at peace. What’s my plan for the future? For my limited stay here, I will live this world to its fullest; going on a cultural exchange, sightseeing, then, after experiencing the festival that is only held once every ten years, …… I shall safely return home. However, despite my lust for a peaceful last year before returning, this planet’s heavyweights have begun amassing around me, and……

Argon discovers his unique ability to discern artefacts, remnants of a forgotten age that possess unimaginable power. Every step towards ascension is a dance with death, each move in the deadly game of power promising either a leap forward or a fall into oblivion. Plunged into a maelstrom of noble intrigues, conspiracies and the relentless threat of steel, Argon must rely on his ruthless cunning, unflinching courage and an unquenchable thirst for power.

Wars? It’s already 800 years since the last one. Monsters? The Guild and Order of Knight are taking care of them. Return to Earth? It is eventually No-Risk.

But although I wished to peacefully spend a year before my return, for some reason, the heavyweights of this world keeps gathering around me, and……
