The Last Thing He Wanted

The Last Banner

Hadrian never expected to die—let alone wake up in another world as the frail, sickly son of a duke. Tasked by a god to unite humanity and destroy the monstrous races threatening its survival, Hadrian initially dismisses the divine mission as irrelevant. But when personal tragedy strikes, he embraces his role with a burning resolve, determined to forge a path of vengeance, innovation, and unrelenting ambition. In a fractured world where humans are teetering on the edge of extinction, Hadrian must navigate political intrigue, familial bonds, and the looming spectre of war. Armed with memories of his past life and a mysterious system that grants him knowledge and power, he begins introducing revolutionary changes to his dukedom—from crop rotation to matchlock muskets—all in preparation for the battles to come. As he improves his holding and builds alliances, Hadrian’s relationships grow increasingly complex. His sharp wit and newfound confidence put him at odds with his manipulative older sister, Helena, even as a deeper connection begins to form between them. His bond with his steadfast older brother, Alexander, is tested by suspicion and rivalry. Meanwhile, the looming threat of goblins, orcs, and the sinister Church of the Flame hangs over his every move. The Last Banner is a tale of survival and ambition, blending the grit of dark fantasy with the calculated strategy of a military epic. Through disciplined formations, tactical brilliance, and unwavering determination, Hadrian sets out to unite humanity under his banner and reclaim a world that has all but forgotten the strength of its people. But as the stakes rise and the lines blur between saviour and conqueror, Hadrian must confront the cost of his ambition. Will he become the beacon of hope that humanity desperately needs, or will his quest for power ignite the flames of its final downfall? [sorry guys, I did already rite 16 chapters for what I thought this story needed to be, but it was too slow paced for me, I could've called that a prologue that's how far away it was from the main story i had planned for this novel, so this is attempt two, it gets straight into the kingdom building, but don't worry, there's still a bit of tragedy, as that is life isn't it, hope u enjoyyy.] -join the discord[https://discord.gg/zhwebYYm]
