Grand Duke It Was A Mistake

Kael Draven died in the most humiliating way possible. Run over… while trying to save a piece of fried chicken. But death was not the end. When he opens his eyes, Kael finds himself reborn in a world of magic, monsters, and powerful mages. There is only one problem. He is the weakest mage in the academy. No talent. No skills. No magic that actually works. But just when everything seems hopeless, Kael discovers something strange. His luck… is completely broken. Spells miss him by accident. Enemies defeat themselves. Disasters turn into miracles. Every mistake somehow becomes a perfect victory. People start to notice. A genius. A hidden master. A terrifying prodigy. The more Kael tries to explain, the worse the misunderstandings become. “I tripped,” Kael insists. “They call it flawless execution.” As rumors spread and powerful enemies begin to watch him, Kael is pulled into conflicts far beyond his understanding. From academy duels to world-shaking wars, his so-called “luck” begins to reveal something far more dangerous. Because this power is not random. And Kael might not be its first owner. Now hunted by those who fear him, trusted by those who believe in him, and followed by a mysterious silver-haired mage who refuses to look away… Kael must survive a world that thinks he is a genius. Even if he knows the truth. “I am not strong,” Kael says. The world disagrees.

To the world, Salim Bakar was the "worthless" son of the elite Bakar real estate dynasty. While his brothers closed multi-million dollar deals, Salim spent his time on his phone, managing obscure influencers in the "frivolous" world of TikTok. The tension boils over at the Bakar Group’s 50th Anniversary Gala. In front of the city’s elite, Salim is publicly betrayed by his own father. "A Bakar is a lion of industry, not a lapdog for internet clowns," his father bellows. Disowned, stripped of his inheritance, and cast out into the rain, Salim is left with nothing but his smartphone. But the Bakars made a fatal mistake: they confused "quiet" with "weak." They didn't know Salim’s hidden identity. He is the "Ghost Manager," a digital genius who controls the world’s largest viral talent agency. With his Cold Protagonist mindset, Salim decides it’s time for a lesson in business. Using his God-Tier Manager System, he begins to manipulate the trends that the Bakar Group relies on for their "modern" rebranding. As Salim builds a new-media empire that dwarfs his family’s dying industry, the Bakars find themselves losing millions. Desperate, they seek a meeting with the mysterious "King of Influence" to save their company. The face-slapping begins when the boardroom doors open, and the "disgrace" they spat on is the one holding their debt. Salim isn't back for a reunion; he’s back for revenge.

“You don't deserve this throne. Your birth was nothing more than a mistake by my late husband, so don't think any more of yourself. But if you still want to be King, then go into the territories and kingdoms outside Griffindale and build your army of followers and allies from scratch. Whenever you feel like you have amassed a huge following enough to seize the throne away from me, then you can come back to fight for it. But from now on, you are on exile.” “The throne belongs to me, Stepmother. Nevertheless, I will do as you ask. But rest assured, for what you've done, I will return—not just for my throne, but also for your head.” “While the Queen fumed with rage in her private chamber, Cyrus emerged from her quarters wearing a satisfied grin, knowing his destiny was now set in stone. He would one day become king, no matter what.” -------- This is my first novel on the platform, so my pacing and world-building aren't the best, but it gets better with time. The story is set in a medieval world, somewhere in an alternate version of ancient Europe. At first the tone focuses more on war and basic politics, but as the story progresses, there will be more magic/fantasy elements added - like dragons, witches and fables. If you enjoy the work, please consider supporting it in any way you can. Any means of support goes a long way for me and is duly appreciated. Have Fun!!!

Introvert!? Me!? The hell am I an introvert? I stay indoors all day because I am afraid of getting my butt kicked. Until I contract my beast, I won’t be walking freely. This is a promise I made to myself. My name is Ryder, and I am black-marked. The planet where I live is dominated by summoners. If you guessed it, then you are right—we contract beasts from the Astral Shadow Plain and summon them at will after successfully forming a contract. A mark appears on the left shoulder of every human after a period of maturity, a mark given by the beast that chooses you. There are five different types of marks—the brown, the orange, the red, the black, and lastly, the white. Of all the markings, I was marked black. I was chosen by a supreme demon monarch of the Astral Shadow Plain—the Dracogon. There was only a 0.5 percent chance for me to survive the contraction process. However, with a slight twist in the original outcome, contracting a creature from the black-marked plain was nothing compared to the catastrophe I caused shortly after—I opened a link between the beasts of the Astral Shadow Plain and the planet of humans, Terra. Everyone on my planet has been endangered because of me. The fact that no one knows when the link will trigger and cause a breach that pours mindless creatures into my world makes it all the more unsettling. Now, with no other choice, I have to find a way to resolve the mistake I made—alone, just like I caused it.

Ethan is an ordinary college student, majoring in history and leading a quiet, unremarkable life. One day, while walking home from class, he is suddenly engulfed by a mysterious portal and transported to Aetheria, a sprawling fantasy world of magic, monsters, and legendary heroes. Upon arrival, he discovers he has been summoned as a “hero” to aid the realm against an encroaching darkness. However, his magical aptitude is abysmally low, and he fails every basic test and training exercise. The other heroes and villagers quickly label him “the weakest hero”, mocking him as a liability. Desperate and confused, Ethan’s life seems doomed… until a hidden system activates. A mysterious interface appears before him, explaining: > “Your power grows through failure. Each mistake, setback, and defeat will grant you new skills or enhance your existing ones. Your strength is derived not from talent, but from resilience and perseverance.” With this strange rule in place, Ethan begins to experiment. At first, his failures are laughably pathetic: falling off training cliffs, accidentally triggering explosions, or summoning useless monsters. Yet, each failure brings surprising growth: a missed spell suddenly evolves into a devastating magical combo, a botched sword swing awakens latent elemental energy, or a misstep in stealth unlocks precognition. As he slowly accumulates a patchwork of bizarre yet powerful abilities, Ethan’s reputation shifts from the weakest hero to a legendary wildcard, a hero who seems to defy logic and overwhelm enemies in the most unexpected ways.

On their third wedding anniversary, Roman carried a secret. Millions saved. A card that could restore Mira’s stolen company. He was ready to reveal everything. Then he walked into the office. Mira’s best friend Mario was on one knee. Diamond ring gleaming. Proposing to Roman’s wife. She said yes. In front of everyone, Mira destroyed him. Their marriage was forced, she claimed.
