    Not really. Romance isn’t the focus. It’s probably secondary (tertiary even), and mostly tied to other characters. Right now, the story is centered on establishing the main plot.

    The story isn’t focus on romance it’s probably secondary (third ???) and mainly tied to other characters. Right now, it’s still in the introductory stage, so the focus is more on the main plot.

    Appreciate the honesty, haha... I get where you’re coming from. It does loop back a bit. I’m setting up some key threads, hopefully I deliver it sooner than later. I’ll definitely keep your pacing note in mind. Low-key considered rage-baiting for a second, but decided against it hahahha. Thanks for sticking with the story this far tho...

    Thanks for the review and suggestions! Somebody ask about this already and let me say it again... This story isn’t really focused on romance (definitely not harem), BUT the thing is... I actually already outlined a separate story about the current king, who really did have the whole harem thing going on (...and yeah… he ended up with around twenty kids, which is wild but there’s a reason for it). That’s why the synopsis mentions “fourth prince,” “tenth prince,” and even in Ch.1 it has mentions of “first prince” and “sixth princess.” Should I include his story as a side story here (though I’m not sure if it’ll get locked since the story is already in premium), or just make it its own separate novel? I’m open to ideas!

    Actually, this story is not focus on romance (or harem in particular) BUT funny thing is I do have an outlined separate story about the 'current king', who really did have the harem part and a lot of children... (by a lot, like around twenty, which is fair... it's a lot but there's a reason for that haha) which explains all the 'fourth prince' and 'tenth prince.' in the synopsis. And if you've read Ch. 1 at least, it also mention 'first prince' and 'sixth princess'. Now I’m debating, should I include that as a side story within this novel (tbh I’m not sure if it’ll get locked since we’re already on premium), or would it be better as a separate novel of its own? I’m open to suggestions...

    I get it. I feel the same way when I read fantasy-action stories. I don’t want romance to be the focus or the main driving force. What I really want is for the genre I signed up for to actually take center stage. So yeah, haha. I really appreciate you stopping by to check the story out though!

The King's Gambit: The Bastard Son Returns

So, what’s this novel about? Think 'Squid Game' meets 'Game of Thrones'. ✧˖°── .✦───☼༺☆༻☾───✦.── °˖✧ In a kingdom where the crown is not passed by blood. Even a prince must earn it and even a peasant can claim it. Keiser was a knight of the royal brigade, one of the first commoners ever to reach the final trial of the King’s Gambit. A brutal tradition decided the kingdom’s next king. While nobles trained their entire lives for it, Keiser… born with no mana, rose through grit, loyalty, and unyielding strength. At his side stood Prince Gideon Aury Valemont, the king’s fourth son, who had seemingly renounced his own claim to support Keiser. Or so Keiser believed. It was in the final trial that the truth revealed its fangs. Keiser had been nothing but a pawn. Gideon had used him as a shield, a decoy to draw assassins and rivals, all while secretly paving his own path to the throne. In the trial, a candidate’s kingmaker must either make the ultimate sacrifice or betray their chosen king and seize the throne. Gideon chose the crown. Bloodied and broken, Keiser knelt, impaled by the very sword Gideon gifted to him. A blade forged from the core of a dragon he had once sworn to free, now twisted into the instrument of his death. Smoke curled from seared flesh, sigils burned into his skin by the hand he once trusted most. As numbness dulled the pain, he raised his gaze... And beheld Gideon, crowned in gold and betrayal... a serpent in royal silk, enthroned by treachery and gilded lies. In that final breath, Keiser understood. The King’s Gambit had never been about valor or justice. It was a masquerade of shadows, where victory belonged not to the strongest... but to the most ruthless deceiver. But death was not his end. Keiser awakens in the body of Muzio Auro Valemont, the king’s disgraced tenth prince, long-missing bastard son, doomed to die before the Gambit even begins. To stop history from repeating, Keiser must find the man he once was, must convince his former self that betrayal is coming, that Gideon will drive into his back the very blade forged from the dragon he once freed. Even if it means entering the Trials again in a body too weak to hold a sword. Even if it means bleeding himself dry to keep pace with his mind. Even if it means turning to the forbidden art of Blood Scripting. Keiser---now Muzio, must train, scheme, and survive... Not as the knight who flew too close to the sun, But as the bastard son hidden in its shadow. He no longer seeks the crown. He seeks to destroy all who dare to wear it. ༻✦༺  ༻✧༺ ༻✦༺ Unofficial tags are: #Transmigration, #Regression #TimeTravel, #BodySwap #IdentityRebirth #MagicSystem #Greek/Latin/Symbols/Weird-Magic-System, #BloodMagic #ForbiddenArts #StrongToWeak / #WeakToStrong, #Trial-by-Succession, #FoundFamily #Mystery, #HorrorElements, #Elves, #Dragons, #Fae, #Sirens, ━⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅━ If any of that caught your interest, give the story a try, and hopefully you'll find it better than expected.
