The Hero'S Return

Keiran was once a civil servant in his world—an aspiring bureaucrat who, after years of failure, finally found the path to success. His life was poised to stabilize, and he could finally achieve the career he’d worked so hard for. But just as his future seemed secure, fate had other plans. On the brink of a new life, Keiran is inexplicably torn from his world and reborn as Kaelan Drakemont, the forgotten son of a once-powerful duke. His father’s disappearance and the cruel betrayal of his stepmother left Kaelan exiled, broken, and poisoned by those who sought to strip him of his birthright. Now, with the memories of both his previous life as Keiran and his new life as Kaelan, he must navigate a world filled with magic, political intrigue, and power struggles. In a land where mana and aura are the source of strength, Kaelan’s legacy has been buried under lies and betrayal, but his past knowledge and experience give him the tools to reclaim what was once his. But the journey ahead is fraught with danger. Kaelan must rebuild his father’s dukedom, uncover the mystery of his father's disappearance, and confront the power-hungry forces that seek to use him for their own gain. As his strength grows, so does the complexity of his role in the world’s political games. Will the wisdom of his past life be enough to overcome the cruelty of his new world, or will the very forces he faces prove too much for even his combined knowledge to defeat?

Before he could process, the so-called heroes—who had hidden while he fought—emerged. He waited for gratitude, only to feel a dagger pierce his back. The only girl he loved stood behind him. She betrayed him. The crowd and heroes? They were staring at him with disdain and contempt. "You..." he groaned as a spear and sword headed for him, ending his life. But instead of dying, he was sent back to the past—specifically, to the first day of the academy, year 2367, 8 years before his death. However, many things had changed. One of the most significant was the sudden appearance of a Tower, a mysterious structure that had appeared across all the continents, granting power to those brave enough to contest its challenges.

With this chance I will end you all" Neraxis vowed to himself, embarking on his path of revenge, while also trying to give his life new meaning. ***** Disclaimer: MC is not instantly going to be a villain, as his background is that of a hero.

The Fake Hero’s Misadventures is a comedic fantasy novel that follows the hilarious and heart-pounding journey of Jaeho, an ordinary man who has been inexplicably chosen as the "Hero of Prophecy" in a world that believes him to be their savior. But there’s one small problem—Jaeho isn’t the real hero. He’s just a regular guy who accidentally found himself in the hero’s shoes. With his newfound fame, overwhelming expectations, and an entire kingdom cheering for his every move, Jaeho must navigate the treacherous path of being a hero without actually knowing how to be one. His lack of skills becomes a running joke, and every victory is achieved more by sheer luck and the quiet intervention of his brilliant (and somewhat overbearing) subordinate, Kaia. As the kingdom celebrates his supposed triumphs, Jaeho must juggle countless misunderstandings, the ever-growing burden of living a lie, and his growing attraction to the beautiful and powerful women who orbit around him—some of whom think he’s the real deal. Meanwhile, Jaeho’s own growing suspicion that the true hero is actually his quiet, capable subordinate only deepens the chaos. Amidst the comedy of errors, political intrigue, and unexpected romance, Jaeho finds himself in over his head. He may not be the hero everyone thinks he is, but with every new misadventure, he begins to wonder: Is it too late to be the hero the kingdom needs, or is it all just one big, hilarious misunderstanding? Filled with witty dialogue, improbable victories, and a cast of lovable, quirky characters, The Fake Hero’s Misadventures is an epic tale of mistaken identity, romance, and what happens when you accidentally become a legend.
