Married to the Demon Duke

astridmoon
As the Remington family teetered on the precipice of financial ruin, weighed down by the Marquess's colossal debts to the formidable Grand Duke Atticus Ravenswood, a chilling proposition emerged. In a desperate attempt to alleviate his burden, the Marquess offered his delicate daughter, Blanche Remington, as a means of appeasement. However, the intricate web of aristocratic ambition extended far beyond this transaction. Grand Duke Ravenswood, driven by his own desires, orchestrated the demise of his wife, intending to secure his future through a strategic remarriage to the captivating Lady Ophelia Breckenbridge. Yet, Ophelia, already the object of fervent admiration from the handsome Crown Prince Iain Barnes, would ultimately reject the Grand Duke's suit, choosing instead to unite her life with the Crown Prince. Consumed by unrequited longing, the Grand Duke would eventually meet his end in a desperate, ill-fated attempt to claim Ophelia as his own. This dramatic tapestry of love, ambition, and tragedy formed the beloved narrative of thirty-two-year-old South Korean worker Yujin Park's favorite novel. However, fate took a cruel and unexpected turn when Yujin's life was tragically cut short during her walk home. In a bewildering twist of destiny, she awoke to find herself inhabiting the very world she had only read about, reincarnated as Blanche Remington a mere year before the character's demise. Now faced with the daunting reality of her fictional fate, Yujin recognized the urgent need for self-preservation: a divorce from the powerful Grand Duke. Yet, a perplexing obstacle arose. Despite his apparent indifference, the Grand Duke refused to grant her freedom. Bewilderment clouded Yujin's thoughts as she grappled with this unexpected resistance. Why would a man who seemingly held no affection for Blanche deny her a separation? What intricate machinations lay hidden beneath the surface of this familiar yet suddenly alien world?

I Can Copy And Evolve Talents

Across the vast convolution of worlds, divine beings rule as absolute sovereigns—each god assigned dominion over a singular realm. Skirmishes are inevitable, whether for power, amusement, or sheer pettiness. One such battle, between Nexus, the God of Trickery, and an aging, senile deity, resulted in an anomaly… A soul misplaced. Elliot, an ordinary man, was never meant for Ul’Tra-el. But fate, or perhaps a cosmic prank, had other plans. Unlike other worlds, Ul’Tra-el is an aberration—one that developed a voice. A voice that diverged from the natural order. A voice that changed everything. Its foundation cracked, leaking dimensions into one another. Rifts tore open like festering wounds, vomiting forth unspeakable horrors—monsters not meant to exist. But the world did not sit idly by. In response—perhaps an act of self-preservation—the world gifted its inhabitants power. Talents awakened, granting people extraordinary abilities. And for every rift sealed, the Voice of Ul rewarded them generously. Survival was simple: fight, grow stronger, and close the rifts… or die trying. In this ruthless, blood-soaked reality, Northern—a white-haired boy burdened by his past life—was reincarnated. But unlike the chosen heroes, he awakened as a talentless nobody. No power. No strength. No future. And when death loomed over him—when despair clawed at his soul and the cold grip of the failure threatened to take him— A Voice responded: [System Notice] [Your Soul cannot take a form.] [Searching for a Unique Pattern Ability…] [Searching…] [Search Found.] [A Unique System Ability has been detected.] [You Can Copy And Evolve Talents] ... Follow Northern through his journey as he becomes the pinnacle of this world. This a story about a white-haired boy’s rise from rubbles!! Note: This is an overpower genre but MC does not just start off like that. Even though MC can copy talents he doesn't just jump around copying talents because there's a limitation. However, his rise to strength is depicted and is an experience to enjoy. The first few hundreds would be frustrating to follow because MC is weak but that makes the experience all the more interesting when MC finally gets freaking strong and starts wiping the floor with everyones asses.
