Her Majesty’s Summon

xadax
Kaelis was twenty, heartbroken, freshly divorced, and very much not in the mood to be anyone’s savior—or husband. But after one too many drinks and an emotional breakdown, he’s suddenly pulled into Vaelareth, a myth-touched world ruled by gods, monsters, and an absolutely done with everything young queen named Silas, who greets him with, “Okay, look—I didn’t want this either.” Turns out, Silas is barely holding her kingdom together. With divine beasts raging across the land and ancient gods hunting her for the Divine Crown she protects—the literal heart of a dead god—she had to perform a last-resort summoning ritual. The spell was meant to call forth a powerful king. She got… Kaelis. Now stuck in a marriage, the two awkwardly navigate political chaos, gods hunting them, and the terrifying fact that Kaelis has a fragment of a chaos god lodged inside him. Also: neither of them has any idea what they’re doing. What begins as an unwanted alliance slowly becomes something else—something that might just change the fate of gods and mortals alike. Because if Kaelis and Silas can’t learn to trust each other, the gods will burn Vaelareth to ash… and remake it in their own image.

The Kingmaker System

"The masterminds are cooler than heroes," I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game. Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit. Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not? *** [Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.] What? [Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.] Wait, what?! [Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.] And, why would I do that?! [Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.] Why would I save him?! [The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?] Ah! I give up... It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things. In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker. I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need? Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though. I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse! Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is... [Failure: Destruction of the World.] It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped. If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing. [Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.] "If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne." And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.
