What should my next story be about?

As you may have seen, I launched The Crime Lord Bard, which had an interesting success in Rising Stars. We reached 13th place, which was an unprecedented achievement for me.

[Update] I have already written all the chapters up to the end of the first book.

However, I’m starting to research for my next story, and this time, I’d really like you to decide which idea is the best.

What are the options?

• Monster Trainer: From Lawyer to Penguin King

• All My Children Are S-Rank

• Time Cursed Mage

• Other [Leave a comment below]

Monster Trainer: From Lawyer to Penguin King

John was just an ordinary lawyer, but his ambition to reach the top of his career made him lose everything—even his great love.

On his way to sign the divorce papers, he gets hit by a car while trying to save his ex-wife.

But his life doesn’t end there. He wakes up inside an egg, and as he pecks his way out, he realizes he is a Penguin King, the monster destined to be partnered with an eleven-year-old girl.

Now, John, as the Penguin King, and Lili will embark on a journey through a new world filled with Monster Trainers, aiming to win the Grand League.

All My Children Are S-Rank

During the Grand Invasion, the MC's wife passed away, leaving him to take care of their three children.

There’s just one problem: the MC is only C-Rank. He’s not useless, but he has never achieved much in life—his only skill is [Tough Love].

Until, one day, after returning from the nursery, he is informed that his triplets have awakened their magic and were ranked S-Rank.

This event triggers a new skill in the MC: [Super-Dad].

Time Cursed Mage

As a young boy, the MC underwent the ritual to determine his elemental affinity. To everyone’s shock, he obtained an extremely rare result: he had an affinity for Time Magic, something no one else had access to.

Accepted into the Arcane Tower as a prodigy, he dedicated himself to relentless study. Even with the highest grades, he continued to push himself.

After all, he was the only mage who couldn't use any other magic. His Time affinity was 100%, while every other element was only 0.1%.

This meant he had to train 100 times harder than an average person just to reach the same level.

During a field excursion, his team is wiped out. Everyone dies—including the MC. But in that moment, he awakens his first magic. However, it’s not something he can cast. It’s passive.

[Awake Again] sends the MC 24 hours back before his death. Allowing him to relive his final moments over and over until he can break the loop.

Will the MC learn new magic? How will he break the loops? Why is his magic activating automatically?
