Kingdom Two Crowns

Jack_Josef
In the final days of humanity, the last kingdom of man, Crown Kingdom, holds steadfast against an unrelenting enemy—the greed—creatures from a lifeless world who take and consume all in their path. The Crown, the greatest symbol of humanity’s legacy, is sought by the greed in their insatiable hunger. When the kingdom's greatest king, Xavier Prospertus, falls in battle, the Crown chooses a new ruler: Child Oxford, the 15th king in line. In a land ravaged by loss, war, and despair, King Oxford must now carry the heavy mantle of leadership. He is tasked not only with protecting his people from the greed but also with preserving the legacy of humanity through a sacred tradition—The King's Diary. Each day, the king records his thoughts, struggles, and decisions, ensuring that no knowledge is lost, and no lesson forgotten. As Oxford leads his people, he faces the emotional and psychological toll of his predecessors’ battles. The remnants of Xavier’s great kingdom—surviving squires and soldiers, broken by the trauma of constant war—are now haunted by their past, unsure of their purpose. Oxford must help them recover their strength and sense of self, all while trying to uncover the mysteries of the Crown and its powerful, dangerous allure. With each passing day, Oxford wrestles with his own doubts, the burden of his lineage, and the ever-looming threat of the greed. As the last hope for humanity, he must not only fight for the survival of his kingdom but also grapple with what it means to rule when all has been lost. The fate of humanity lies in the King’s Diary, and every word he writes will shape the legacy of the kingdom’s final monarch.

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.
