Historical Victorian

A ruthless corporate strategist wakes up in a mud-filled trench during the Crimean War, inside the disgraced body of Captain Alistair Peregrine Finchley. Branded a coward. Hated by London. Assets frozen. Empire wants him hanged. Finchley wants tea. Now stuck in an alternate Victorian Britain era with only a sarcastic, old-fashioned “Gentleman’s Ledger” and his battlefield instincts, Finchley sets one goal, Retire in peace. Preferably rich. Definitely far away from cannon fire. But peace is expensive. And the empire is on sale. So he does what any disgraced noble with a modern MBA and a sniper with math-based hearing would do... turn a slum pawnshop into an intelligence network, and recruits a squad of misfits. While they do the dirty work, Finchley delegates, invests, and drinks tea. But retirement isn't so easy to outsource, especially when the gentleman ledger he carries mysteries of its own. And the Empire? It’s about to go on the market. "War? No, thank you. I’m building a pension."

In the midst of the chaos and destruction of modern warfare, Professor Cyrus, a historian deeply fascinated by ancient Persian history, suddenly closes his eyes to the world. But this is not an end; it is a new beginning. He is reincarnated into the body of an infant named "Cyrus" in ancient times, precisely at the dawn of the Achaemenid Empire. With a mind full of 21st-century knowledge and a photographic memory that keeps all his learnings alive, this new Cyrus finds an unparalleled opportunity to change his own destiny and that of the ancient nation of Iran. Can a modern mind not only survive in an ancient world but also, like his historical predecessor, build an empire that will be unparalleled throughout history? This epic novel is a journey into the depths of an alternate history, where Cyrus, using his unique genius, undertakes unprecedented innovations. From inventing a new Persian language and script, and producing paper and soap in his childhood, to implementing revolutionary army reforms inspired by Sun Tzu, Roman military principles, and modern military science. He rebuilds governmental and judicial systems based on human rights and wisdom, fosters theoretical and experimental sciences, and constructs infrastructures beyond the imagination of that era. His goal is not merely conquest, but to build a civilization founded on justice, tolerance, and progress, so that the Achaemenid Empire may endure for thousands of years and remain safe from historical collapses caused by Alexander the Great. "My Persian Empire" is a narrative of the endeavour to create an ancient utopia, where extreme nationalism gives way to mutual understanding and coexistence, and great civilizations of the world, from Rome to Greece, and from India to China, imitate the advancements of Persia. This eventful story takes you into the heart of strategic battles, court intrigues, and scientific and cultural transformations, showing how a leader with a modern vision can not only rewrite history but also leave an everlasting legacy for humanity. Author's Note: Hello dear companions! It is with great pride that I present to you my first novel, "My Persian Empire." This work is the result of my years of fascination with web novels in the Kingdom Building genre and the glorious history of Iran. In creating this novel, I have utilized the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence (AI) – particularly models like Gemini 2.5 Flash or Grok 3 – to craft a rich and precise story. However, I emphasize that every idea and every narrative thread has been under my complete and direct management and supervision. AI has been a powerful tool in my hands to turn my dream into reality, but the spirit, thought, and human creativity of this work are entirely my own. I understand that as a novice writer, there may be imperfections in my work, but I have created it with all my heart for you, and I hope you enjoy this historical-fictional journey. Your support and feedback will be my greatest motivation to continue on this path and create subsequent volumes. Thank you very much for your companionship.

Now, his foster father was the leader of the latest version's antagonist organization. He would expose his identity six years later, hesitate and then defect from the protagonist's side. Ultimately, because he decided to take a fatal strike meant for the player character, he was killed by his upright older brother in a transitional CG without even a chance to enter the main content. ——But the problem was not too significant.

Lancelot Haier came from a dynasty of politicians who had ruled with tyranny and oppression. Despite those origins, he despised his family and was willing to help the citizens who had long suffered under their rule. However—before he even had the chance to change his country, the people revolted. His entire family was executed, and he was killed along with them. In his final moments, he wished for a second life—one where he could redeem himself and carry the sins of his bloodline. Unexpectedly, that wish was granted. He was reincarnated into another world as the crown prince of the Kingdom of Aragon. But in this world, everything felt backward. The country was ruled by an absolute monarch. Feudalism was the norm. Technology resembled that of the late 1700s. Fortunately, in his past life, he had earned degrees in both mechanical engineering and political science—knowledge he once hoped to use to reform his homeland. Now, it seemed he would use them here instead. He would use his modern knowledge to transform the lives of his people, industrialize his territory, gain the upper hand in technology, and form alliances with foreign nations—all while navigating the treacherous waters of internal affairs and politics. P.S While Reincarnated as the Crown Prince draws inspiration from historical settings, political systems, and technologies of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, this work is entirely fictional. All characters, governments, names, and events—although some may resemble real-world history—are products of the author’s imagination or are used in a fictionalized, altered form for narrative purposes. This novel is not a historical account. It should not be interpreted as a factual representation of any real monarch, nation, revolution, or political figure. Lancelot Haier, his backstory, and the alternate version of different kingdoms portrayed here are entirely original creations. The inclusion of familiar concepts like feudalism, industrialization, and political reform serves the plot and world-building, not historical documentation. Readers seeking accuracy in history are encouraged to consult verified academic sources. This story is a creative work meant for entertainment, character development, and speculative exploration of “what-if” scenarios rooted in alternate history. Thank you for reading, and I hope you will enjoy the journey.

No questions, no morals—just results. Of course for the right amount of money. But his life takes an unwanted turn when Sella Varcosta, an elite hunter from the Black Chapel, finally tracks him down. She’s spent many hours training to kill him—until she discovers the truth: if she doesn’t drink his blood, she will die. And the Black Chapel of Assassins wants him dead. Again. Unfortunately, Lucien is the last person to rely on. He avoids attachments like the plague, refuses to be controlled by anyone—including fate—and would rather set himself on fire than be someone’s lifeline. But with witches on the rise, gods and goddesses and beasts escaping their own tarot cards to cause havoc, and a a deadly plague corrupting and killing the land slowly, Lucien and Sella are forced into an uneasy alliance. As they dive deeper into the fractured history of their world, they begin to unravel mysteries, villains, and something far worse than curses or corruption—a forgotten cycle of death and rebirth, one that binds them together in ways neither of them understand. And when the final hunt begins, only one thing is certain—they will either save each other, or destroy everything in their path.

He always woke at 4:44 AM. No alarm. No mistake. As if something—or someone—waited precisely then. At first, Elias Rehn dismissed it. Coincidence. Circadian rhythm. Nothing worth feeding fear. Until the 44th morning— when his reflection blinked half a second too late… and whispered, “I’m you. From tomorrow.” From that moment, Elias is thrust into a reality where time fractures, mirrors whisper, and each version of himself fights for dominance. He’s not dreaming. He’s remembering. Across timelines. Across selves. Five minds. One body. A fractured soul trapped in an echoing loop. Every morning, he wakes. But someone else might be behind the eyes. "One is a fog-drenched clockmaker in Victorian Europe. One is an assassin loyal to shadows in ancient Kyoto. One is a priest carrying truths too heavy for God. One is a scholar writing history before it happens. And one… is the origin of them all." One of them seeks freedom. Another wants revenge. And one has seen the end. But only Elias can solve the puzzle— because he is the Mind Paradox itself. When memory and reality collapse… Will your mind still belong to you?

Adolf Hitler died choking on the ashes of his Reich… only to awaken in a world of magic, monsters, and weak-willed kings. Reborn in a land untouched by blitzkrieg or bullets, he finds no swastikas, no iron crosses — only empires ripe for conquest and sorcerers too soft to rule.

There is no remorse. Only war. Content Warning: This story contains depictions of fascist ideology, war crimes, and morally reprehensible behavior from an unapologetically evil protagonist.

To gain power, he gave up his voice. Now, his blade speaks for him. Sixteen-year-old Timothy Maxwell once dreamed of becoming a hero. That dream died the night his hometown was slaughtered by Inquisitors—silenced in the name of peace. Left for dead and unable to scream, Timothy is chosen by a cursed order known only as The Choir—warriors who sever a sense to awaken monstrous power. In exchange for his voice, he gains a blade that sings with rage, grief, and vengeance. Now known only as Mute, he travels a fog-drenched, Victorian world teetering on the edge of collapse—where religion is weaponized, magic is forbidden, and silence is feared. Each member of the Choir has paid a price: sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste. In return, they’ve become monsters—and legends. But Timothy’s silence hides more than sorrow. Inside him lies an ancient Resonance that the Order tried to erase. And when his blade finally sings… The world will listen.
