When the enigmatic and overpowered Kieran Drayke awakens in a foreign magical world after a sudden transmigration, he brings along a system unlike any this realm has ever known. The “Sovereign Architect System” doesn’t just make him invincible—it gives him the tools to build something far greater.But Kieran isn’t interested in world domination. At least, not in the usual way.Disillusioned by the world's surface-level glimmer and the rot beneath it, Kieran sets his sights on the forsaken—those discarded by society, lost in the shadows of nobility and corruption. From slums, war zones, and forgotten ruins, he gathers orphan girls of various races—elves, beastkin, humans, and more—each with untapped potential and pain behind their eyes.He trains them in secret. Guides them. Empowers them. Not as soldiers, but as a family. A hidden organization that operates behind the curtains, shaping the world while appearing as ordinary students at the prestigious Aetherion Magic Academy.Kieran himself? Just a carefree, slightly lazy transfer student with a penchant for sweets, sarcasm, and sneaking naps between classes—on the surface, at least.With a slow-burning plot that weaves magical worldbuilding, deep friendships, training arcs, casual comedy, and a cast of unforgettable girls who grow into queens of the unseen, Chronicles of the Hidden Crown explores what happens when an OP MC doesn’t conquer the world with brute force…But builds a legacy from its forgotten pieces.No betrayal. No forced drama. Just the steady rise of a secret kingdom in the shadows of a crumbling empire.

Growing up in a place where the rule of the jungle is law, the simple yet cunning Shaar is thrown into the chaotic world of war and political turbulence. After a chance meeting with a mysterious young girl, his destiny is forever changed as he embarks on a journey, joining the Byzantine army and climbing its ranks. With his bizarre beauty standards, will he ever return the affection of the girls that will follow him? Will he ever learn about his real parents? What lies ahead of him is a journey of strange humor and adventure.

“You dare to divorce, unless I die!” Fu Tingyao was cold and cruel, but he loved her to the point of madness, and he would turn black as soon as he left.

Before his rebirth, Mu Xingwan mistakenly regarded his benefactor as an enemy, and only when he died did he realize that he loved him to the bone.

Returning from the rebirth, Mu Xing started a counterattack late, hugged the man’s thigh tightly, slapped the face and abused the scum all the way! It is rumored on the Internet that Mu Xingwan’s heart is higher than the sky, and she stalked the popular actor Shen Yu, and recruited fans to scold “The toad wants to eat swan meat!” As a result, after the photos of Mu Xingwan’s makeup without makeup were exposed, she “slapped” her face! It was rumored on the Internet that the popular actor Shen Yu fell in love with the little fairy at first sight, but found that the little fairy was Mu Xingwan after she had no makeup… The whole network was shocked. Fu Erye, the dream lover of thousands of girls, immediately posted a group photo, and wrote @shen yu: my wife, understand?

It is also said that Mu Xingwan was timid and stupid, and all the ladies and ladies were looking forward to their divorce: the vase was not worthy of standing shoulder to shoulder with the second master.

Then, the news headlines revealed that the top student in the college entrance examination, an expert in appraising treasures… When it was all hers, it blinded everyone’s eyes.

“Second Master, Jiang Shao is holding a rose and wants to invite Mrs. Shao to dinner.”

Fu Tingyao: “Who dares to covet my woman?”
