The Zodiac's Keepers

lux_mundi
The Continent of Luer is an archipelago world where magic flows freely. Among its many islands, Bernez stands as the center of magical civilization—home to fifteen nations, each with its own academy of magic. At its pinnacle is the Magia Academy in the Int-Nicolas Pun Empire, a symbol of glory and the dream of every young mage. Yet far from such grandeur, in the nation of Buitenzorg, lived an eight-year-old boy named Ciel. With his light brown hair, pale yellowish skin, and emerald green eyes, he appeared to be an ordinary child. Sadly, in a world where magic determines life and death, Ciel was born with absolutely no magical talent. This absence made him fragile—easily overlooked, easily forgotten. His future seemed decided long before he could ever choose. Until one day, near a silent forest, fate strayed from its course. Ciel came into contact with a mysterious source of mana and gained a power never before recorded in the history of Bernez. Not ordinary magic—but a foreign, potent, and dangerous force. From a boy without magic, Ciel now stands on the brink of great change—for himself, and perhaps for the entire world of Luer.

Wolf Princess Sold to the Dragon King

"Take me instead." Three words. Guinevere Lunaris trades herself and saves 300 lives. Tied. Gagged. Underestimated by a mile. They chain her to a tree in the snow. Mistake. While running for her life, she meets a stranger in the dark and tells him to hide so he isn’t killed. Twelve hours later, he walks into her father's hall wearing a crown. The man she just told to hide in a hole is Maddox Drakencrest, High King of Velkaris. Ruler of an entire continent. Maddox hears his dragon say ‘mate’ right away. But her wolf is silent. More and more Alpha Kings enter the hall. She catches the tail end of her father’s toast and chokes on her wine. "—leave here with a virgin bride." An auction for her hand turns into a full-out bidding war. Maddox wins. 750 million in gold, three dragon fleets, and an urn full of the bastard who chained her the day before. Every force in Velkaris is betting against a wolf on a dragon throne. The Elders say the queen must be a dragon rider, which is impossible for a woman without dragon blood. The king's half-brother agrees with them, but his solution is a civil war and taking the crown for himself. If his brother’s rebellion wins, Maddox dies and she belongs to him. If the elders win, she goes back to the father who sold her. Neither is happening. Her wolf calls Velkaris home. She's not giving it up. They expect Guinevere to behave like a good little wolf princess and play along with their political games. She says bet.

Defying Destiny: Chronicles of Civilization

[Kingdom Building and Cultivation done right, without finger-snapping cheats!] ~~~~~~~~ Lucas was an ordinary boy destined to not leave much of a mark on the world; that is, until a cross-universe accident befalls him. Struck by the Soul of a dying man, he should have perished, but fate had other plans. Lucas awakens to discover he possesses memories of a world where science dominates and cultivation is fantasy. Taking advantage of this newfound knowledge, Lucas aims to blend technological progress with Spirit Cultivation to build a better life for both himself and his loved ones. Unfortunately, his new memoires are shrouded in a fog that can only be lifted by advancing his strength; hardly an easy task for a countryside kid from the outskirts of civilization. Even after he unveils this knowledge, Lucas still has to find a way to use it, a slow and arduous process that requires enormous amounts of time, resources, and help. Lucas doesn’t falter, though, and is determined to realize his dreams of establishing an advanced cultivation civilization, but farther he treads upon this path, the more dangers he encounters, and the more enemies stand in his way. Will the once ordinary boy succeed in changing his destiny, or will destiny consign him to the forgotten annals of history? ~~~~~~~~ Author notes: First Book! Starts slow, but give it a chance! 10 ~ 11 chs/wk, but with frequent mass-releases. Yes harem; most girls won't be part of it. Additional tags: No-System, No-Cheats, Eastern Cultivation, Slow Romance
