The Princess and the Outlaw (or Love in the Time of Banditry)

His first day ended with a knife in his throat. Marcus, the so called “Mad Lord”, awakens to clarity and a system’s grim decree: [Days Left: 183.] His first choice leads to a brutal death and his second, to a perfect frame. But the Edge Of Death offers more than a countdown. It grants knowledge and secrets hidden by time. Forbidden methods and designs this world was never meant to have. Plagued by evils and schemes of ancient beings. Hunted by the wealthy and nobles, ruling a starving land on the brink of collapse, battling unseen evils, Marcus makes a single decision: if survival is difficult, then he will build something that will make his enemies hesitate. Powers that would scare them away. From an impoverished territory, he begins to forge an empire of his own. Long live the Son of Flame! Long live the Iron Viscount! ------- #Kingdombuilding#NoHarem#Weaktostrong#Mages. ------ 50 Power Stones = 1 extra chapter. 100 Power Stones = 2 extra chapters. 5 Constructive Review = 3 extra chapters.

His regiment has been surrounded by Chaos traitors and is fighting for survival. Duvette looks at the System before him called "Soul of the Legion" and makes one decision: he is going to live. "What do you mean an Astra Militarum soldier ripped a Chaos Astartes' head off with his bare hands?!" "You're saying you have three hundred thousand mortal troops as powerful as the Custodes?" Guilliman looked at the man before him. "No. Stronger." A hundred years later "I am the Emperor's will. We are the hammer that crushes the xenos. We are the blade that pierces Chaos. We bring eternal death to the enemies of mankind, and mankind shall know true victory." Eternal Imperial Warmaster, Lord of the Sun, Humanity's Sole Consul, Augustus, Guardian of the Galaxy, Marshal Duvette. Progression: Commissar — Senior Commissar — Lord Commissar.
