Hopes_Legacy
Aaron Valtoria, second son of a powerful duke, lives a quiet life as a student at the Royal Academy—until a letter changes everything. His father lies dying, his elder brother has been poisoned, and the weight of a crumbling legacy falls to him. But Aaron is no ordinary noble. In his past life, he was a physicist from Earth’s 23rd century—murdered for uncovering corporate corruption. Now, reborn in a medieval world of mana, monsters, and ambition, he vows never to be a pawn again. While navigating deadly politics, ancient magic, and a looming civil war, Aaron must forge alliances, and master the sword. With knowledge from a forgotten world and a heart burning with purpose, he’ll rise—not as a duke’s spare son, but as the architect of a new empire. The flames of change have been lit. And Aaron stands at their heart.
