[Help me] Determine Writing the Priority of Fiction Works Based on the Story's Premises

Well, I currently have five fictions in progress (or some on hiatus). I'd like to resume writing fiction. However, I realize my capacity is limited to handle all of them. So, I'm forced to prioritize my fiction writing: continue writing some fiction and postpone writing some other fiction.

My question is, based on the title, genre, and synopsis (the story's premise), which of the below fictions would you most likely read as a casual reader?

Silver Prince Who Only Knows Being Loved
Genres: Josei, romance, drama, fantasy

Synopsis:
Everyone loved him. That was what Lune Arclight had always believed—a silver-haired crown prince, beloved by the people, adored by the nobility, blessed with handsome looks, great power, and a perfect future.

One day, a mysterious sage asked, “Are you truly happy, Prince who only knows how to be loved?”

To prove his belief, Lune accepted the challenge of sleeping for a year. If love were real, the kingdom would await him. If not... he would have to give up the crown.
When Lune's eyes opened again, the kingdom he knew had changed. And perhaps... it never truly loved him.

Legion Empress: Iron Lady and Moonlight Princess
Genres: Seinan, dark fantasy, comedy, drama, action

Synopsis:
If this world were built by tyrants, then let their blood be the foundation of a new one.

Scarlett wanted only one thing: to live in peace with her little sister, Yuna. But the world wouldn’t allow it. As the Iron Lady, she was known as the slayer of corrupt nobles. A hunter of tyrants. A villain to those in power, and a protector of the oppressed.

But… when the sun set, she awoke in another body. As Princess Sophie Stronghold, the Moonlight Princess was exiled by the Empire. Weak, yet a genius. Gentle, yet holding the secrets of the world. Within the palace where she was born, Sophie hid her consciousness, her knowledge, and her plans.

Two bodies. One soul. One path of no return. When the world knows only the laws of tyrants, only those willing to dirty their hands for the sake of their loved ones… can change it.

Gifts from Detective Clara
Genres: Thriller, dark fantasy, drama, action

Synopsis:
In the Rose Kingdom, where the law has lost its conscience and crime has become a spectacle, a young detective girl stands before the court, embracing her victim.

Clara, a young detective known for her unwavering conscience in the face of power, has brought corrupt nobles, rapists, and murderers to justice. The people praise her as the voice of society.

But behind the applause, a figure has emerged who has shaken the kingdom—the Blood Rose Princess, a serial killer who has crucified nobles with roses and blood. She left a bloody message:

"When the law is dead, I will be the law. Blood for blood."

Dragged by her conscience, Clara tries to catch that serial killer, but catching her uncovers the darkest secrets the world has hidden.

In the bitter truth, gifts come in the most honest form. Because not all justice is meant to be black and white... and justice sometimes also dances with roses and blood.

Blood Rose Princess Just Wants to Live in Peace with Her Little Daughter
Genres: Dark fantasy, drama, action, slice of life

Synopsis:
What if the world chose to forget its saviour and its sins, while the saviour chose instead to protect her daughter’s innocence?

Seven years ago, the age of tyranny was erased from the memory of mankind. Civilisation crumbled, the tyrants fell into an eternal sleep, and the victims woke with no memories of their suffering.

Only one person remembered everything: Marry El Rose, the Blood Rose Princess, the feared executioner who crucified tyrants with blooming roses of blood to avenge the voiceless.

She saved the world… and was forgotten by it.

Now, hidden in a quiet valley, Marry lives a small, gentle life with her little daughter, Caelan—bright, adorable, and blissfully unaware that her mother was once a living nightmare. They plant flowers, share bedtime stories, and try to laugh in a world still stitched with scars.

But peace is a fragile fantasy. The past never stays buried. While the world forgot its saviour, the Disaster Princesses, Marry’s ideological sisters, have risen to force humanity to remember its sins through terror, war, and relentless vengeance.

And behind Caelan’s innocent smile lies a powerful secret to shape the world once more.

Yet Marry clings to one simple dream:

“I don’t want to be a saviour, a heroine, or a goddess of judgment… I just want my daughter to laugh every morning.”

This is the story of a former executioner of justice choosing motherhood in a world still drowning in darkness.

Blood Rose Princess: Her Last Mercy was Death
Genres: Dark fantasy, adventure, action, drama

Synopsis:
The world is alive. It hears. It remembers. And now… it is wounded deeply.

In a world filled with greedy and sinful humans, where power replaces justice, and the people are cheap meat for the machines of tyranny, their screams are no longer heard by kings, nobles, or blood merchants. But the world hears them — every sob, every betrayal, every infant starving to death in its mother’s arms.

From the world’s festering and festering wounds, they are born — the Disaster Princesses. Not heroes. Not gods. But living ideologies. Terrors wrapped in tenderness. And among them, one is the most feared:

Blood Rose Princess — A former royal princess who abandoned her name, honour, and mercy — to become the final executioner of mankind.

“When the law was silenced by power, then I will become the law itself. Blood for blood.”

This is no tale of redemption.
This is no tale of heroism.
This is the final judgment — on those who do not deserve to live.

This novel is a prequel to the series “Blood Rose Princess Just Wants to Live in Peace with Her Little Daughter” taking the timeline before the fall of the world’s memory and the birth of little daughter, Caelan El Rose.

The author said:
"Want a dark fantasy without false forgiveness? Welcome to the final judgment of humanity."

Please choose three of five fictions which you would like to encourage me to consider continuing the series. Thank you for your attention.

Best regards.

Critical Note:
My maximum writing capacity is only to work on 3 fictions in a season.

All of the above fictions have the same world (universe), it's just that each protagonist lives in a timeline where the protagonists might intersect or not.

All of the fiction synopses above accurately represent the story's premise; none of them are gimmicks where the synopsis differs from the content: what you read is what you get.

I intentionally omitted cover art, links, or the number of chapters completed as determining factors, as I solely wanted to assess the quality (potential) of the fiction based on the story's premise.

Your main story is Blood Rose Princess Just Wants to Live in Peace with Her Little Daughter, right? It also has the most engagement, at least from what I see in the statistics. I definitely think you should put majority of your focus on that one, then maybe work on the prequel Last Mercy was Death on the side. If you still want to work on a 3rd, choose whatever is your personal favorite.

That's just my suggestion though! Others may think differently.

I would read the cringiest one first.

*Opens all spoilers.*

Wait? There are none? Where is my cringe Asian novel? It's all Western! And most are boneless dark fantasy without the edge!

Seems like I am not your target audience.

Don't listen to anything I said because you don't need it and my opinion don't matters.

Out of the ones there, the last three are the ones that intrigued me the most.
For whatever my opinion, insight, and interest in darker fantasy stories might be worth to you.

Gifts from detective Clara.
I'm bias toward a good detective story, and the name Clara. but I also wouldn't know why its a spinoff. (I haven't read the main title yet.)
I'd listen more to readers following along with the previous story over my opinion. lol

Edit:
I know.. I suck. but I lub you. don't be sad! lol

I'd focus only on the Blood Rose Princess stories. I think stories in the same universe or spin-offs only make sense if the main work is at least finished, or a large arc of it has been finished.

Maybe try to make progress with the "Sequel," which is in truth the main story if I view things correctly.

Isn't it easier to focus on one story? At least for a while, until you need a break and need to write something else?

I don't know why people recommend me to choose Detective Clara... at least 3 people gave their opinion (from SH and RR). Well, maybe you like Sherlock Holmes and Detective Conan.

Unfortunately, Detective Clara is not Holmes or Conan. She is an emotional female detective and relies on conscience rather than just rationality.

So, Holmes and Conan fans might be disappointed to see how different Detective Clara is in dealing with criminal cases.

Clara's character philosophy is to embrace the victim, not just to uncover mysteries and solve crimes.

Honestly, I suggest writing whichever of those you're most excited about getting back to. You're less likely to burn out if you put your energies into a project you're thrilled about rather than chugging away on the audience favourite that doesn't quite resonate as deeply with you.
