Synopsis

The gods exist. The Supernatural is real. But poor foolish Mortals can never pierce through the Truth hidden by the Veil. They say Ignorance is Bliss. But for Adam, such Bliss woven by a lie is worthless. In his opinion, Ignorance may be Bliss but --- Knowledge is power. This was the truest fact; something Adam built his empire around. ---- He wasn’t always this rich. He wasn’t always this powerful. There was a time he too struggled to earn enough for the treatment of his sick and dying mother. But one day, on a Halloween night, his life was forever changed. His eyes were opened to a completely new Reality. The truth that was hidden from the eyes of all normal humans. An entirely different world, rules, and society exist just in front of us. Follow Adam, as he uncovers the Truth about his identity, the power in his blood, and his adventures as he rises to the throne that is rightfully his. To attain his goal, he will not hesitate. He will even become the God of Crime if that is necessary. --------- The story will be moderately slow-paced during the First four volumes as I set Adam in the world and slowly develop the world-building and Adam starts to adapt to the new reality. I know it might not be to the taste of everyone, but I believe it's worth it. We discover the world together with Adam and how he will grow from someone who knew absolutely nothing about the supernatural world to being someone no one can ignore. This will be a long road and I would be happy if you are willing to walk this road with me. ---- (Alternative title: Midnight Prince: Empire of Sin) [ Tags ]: Mature| Grimdark | Gore |Netori | Harem | Milf | Young & Mature | Supernatural |Action | Gang War | Criminal Empire | System | Gigolo | Handsome MC | Weak to Strong MC | Antihero| Neutral good to Lawful Neutral Evil. | Showbiz | Psychic | ****** ) ----- Disclaimer: The cover picture is AI made and is the art for Adam as [Magician] Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HikaruGenji Discord: https://discord.gg/3v2xvhvD6j My other work Son of The Hero King: https://www.webnovel.com/book/son-of-the-hero-king_24153504605334705

Has the tyrant's gorgeous beauty turned black?

Du Zhiruo didn't know until he died that he was just a character living in a sadistic book. It was because of Bai Yueguang's early tragic death that the paranoid tyrant couldn't forget. However, she was already dead. What was ridiculous was that someone told her that she had put it on wrongly and had to put it on again. The script that truly belonged to her should be that vile, vile, and vile supporting actress who was greedy for vanity and could not get what she wanted! What the hell was this? She had been arrogant all her life and was not even afraid of death. In the end, she was going to be beaten into dust after being reborn? How could this be! So what if she was a vicious supporting actress? Want her to follow the script? That was impossible, impossible in this lifetime! This time, not only did she want to rewrite her own life, but she also wanted to rewrite the ending of the entire story! * The sadistic female protagonist who hated her the most was her strongest support. The cold-hearted second male lead who despised her the most was her best ally. Even the tyrant who had never looked at her in the eye would become her tool, change his tyrant habits, and become a wise monarch. She was the one and only gorgeous beauty in the book. She could go to the battlefield, take the head of the general among the tens of thousands of troops, and intimidate the barbarians in all directions. She could dominate the world, turn the tide, and turn the rotten into the magical. * Seeing that everything was developing in the direction she had expected, she wanted to retire successfully, but she was once again pestered by the tyrant who had turned over a new leaf. She carried the small bag that was ready to run away and said,"If you come any closer, I'll kill you!" In the end, he straightened his neck and smiled even more sinisterly than she did, thinking,'I've washed myself clean. Kill me!' Don't worry, I won't let you off even if you become a ghost! Don't even think about escaping in this lifetime!
