Welcome to the Barony of Babalon, where barbarians battle and blasphemous believers babble. After the death of the Babalons, the Baron and Baroness of the Barony, young Rize Babalon inherits both the title of Baron of Babalon and the barren Barony of Babalon. But as soon as he rises to the rank and files paperwork to take over, the rank-and-file citizens of the barony rise up and try to take over instead. But to save himself, Baron Rize does what he does best! He sucks up to the citizens! magic is the divine might that makes divine right for the nobility and aristocracy to rule. But our young baron decides to use that power for the citizens and bribe his way into a comfortable life.

Or so he thought!

His approval ratings suddenly skyrocket, and before he knows it, his people hail him as a savior! His magic may be revolutionary, but he didn't want a revolution! He just wanted to relax on the seaside, not commit regicide! He started empty-headed and empty-handed, but now things are getting out of hand! And thus begins the Bottom-Tier Baron's Accidental Rise to the Top!


Lot of B words in that synopsis.

Just like Doofenshmirtz's hatred of musical instruments that begin with the letter B.

You sound like one of those Nollywood films where a character said "I don't want peace. I want problems! always"

Sounds kind of like Genius Prince except more falling upward because he's a Baron going into a revolution instead of the ruling power.

Only sounds like, whereas Genius Prince has a serious tune to it, this one is a comedy first and foremost.
