Alpha's Wild Chess Piece

Cra4_Writes
After being cast out of the Sichuan Werewolf Academy, the rebellious young wolf Julian Zhao Xin had no choice but to live with his clueless stepmother, Bai Lan, while his father, Shi Diwen, the respected Pack Leader of the Iron Fang Clan, led missions deep into the wild territories of Yunnan. Things only got worse when Julian found out Bai Lan was moving them back to her old hometown — a quiet village surrounded by thick bamboo forests and hidden mountain trails. Julian couldn't wait to be free. The full moons were drawing near, and with each passing night, the call of the wild inside him grew louder. The last thing he needed was to get dragged into small-town pack politics and someone else's family problems. Meanwhile, Venus Lin Yue had her own battles. She had learned the hard way that wolves she cared about could leave without a second glance. She had poured everything into becoming the best healer and doctor in her pack, studying medicine under the strict supervision of Zhao Wei, the village's elder medic. Winning the scholarship to the National Werewolf Medical Academy in Kunming was her dream, her ticket to a better life beyond the mountains. But her path shattered when her boyfriend, Gao Tianyu, the pride of their village and once a trusted future alpha, betrayed their trust by joining a rival pack from the Black River Clan. His defection weakened their pack's honor, leaving Venus humiliated and lost. Now, Venus needed a new plan. She needed strength, allies — and maybe even the help of a wolf who didn't believe in rules or loyalty to anyone but himself: Julian Zhao Xin. Julian was trouble. Everyone in the village could see it. His aura was wild, his golden eyes rebellious, and during the first full moon after his arrival at his stepmother's small village, he shifted alone under the pale light, refusing to join the pack's sacred ritual under the Stone Moon Shrine. Even the Beta, Li Tao, and warriors like Chen Feng, Wang Yu, and Sun Lei kept their distance. The High Elder, Gao Wen, warned Venus. "A lone wolf like Julian will bring nothing but chaos. Be careful, Lin Yue." But Venus wasn't afraid of chaos anymore. Chaos was already inside her. If she wanted to heal others beyond the village, to leave behind the betrayals and broken promises, she had to risk everything — even her pride — by trusting a wild wolf like Julian. Maybe, together, they could stand against whatever fate had plans.

What if money was power? What if capital was magical? What if income was cultivation? What if a young man decided to destroy this unjust world of inequality and build a better one? That was exactly what Cæ (Cash) sought to do amid grief, anger, and hatred when he lost everything in an accident. Having come from nothing in the slums, his only goal had been to live a good life. By the age of twenty-two, he had finally managed to pull himself out of poverty with a decent job and romance. And then he lost everything he had ever built in an accident that left him in a coma for half a year. The world deprived him of the only person he had truly come to love. The predatory healthcare system burdened him with debt. The corrupt justice system deprived him of justice. The financial system robbed him of everything he owned. For the second time in his life, Cæ had been left with nothing. Well, almost nothing. The accident and the ensuing coma had altered his brain and mind, giving him an extraordinary talent for cultivating and mastering magic. He had been blessed with Acquired Savant Syndrome, a medical condition so rare that there were very few instances of it ever having occurred in history. It gave him endless potential and remarkable power. It gave him the power to destroy the world that he hated from the bottom of his heart. It gave him the power to destroy it and build a better one. And that was exactly what Cæ set out to do. --- This is my second novel, albeit my first time trying my hand at Royal Road. This story is centered around my desire to explore a story with a magical system centered around macroeconomics and politics. As the title suggests, this story will be centered around kingdom-building and progression fantasy. Romance is a coin flip. No smut. No harem. No systems. Hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy writing it.
