Threads of Crimson and Gold
WSA 2025 participant in the New trope (please try it):
Micheal von Shelb, the lazy yet brilliant Duke's son, discovers he’s a disposable side character in a series of romantic dramas where the authors gleefully kill off his family and even his unborn kids. Unwilling to accept his footnote status, Micheal sets out to rewrite his destiny. Armed with his brain, wit, and slightly impractical inventions like man-bras, he vows to save his wife, Magda, restore their lives, and revolutionize the Empire.
But fate's got other plans. Between dodging political plots, equipping beastmen, and launching horseless carriages, Micheal's quiet life dream spirals into chaos. As the multiverse meddles, Micheal proves that even a side character can upstage the main plot, one sassy retort at a time.
this is kinda cool to read tho still can't get my head around it that's what i like it's good the writing depth is peak
I asked for the romance to be a bit faster before, now I'm good. I like this story, I am thankful that waited till chap ter 5 till you brought up the tragic past.
just read the reviews. seems interesting. I put it in my library and read it later 😁
Only two chapters in so far, and I'm stoked! Ryha has done such a great job providing vivid descriptions and with immersion, really pulling me into the world that's told through an interesting perspective! No complaints here!
Read until the end of chapter 5 and I am hooked! I am adequately enraged at the world, mildly disappointed at the past ML, and pity the patient FL. Now all I wish is for Magda to live happily under Michael's protection. Just let her play with magic man T_T
Okay this is entering my Library i am not even done with chapter 1 but I am hooked i will tell new readers to give it a try.
I use to think Author-sama I am too old for fantasy novels. But this one is captivating. I will adding this to my Library. More power.
