Cameraman Never Dies

In the greed-filled world of corporate empires and magic knights, Min Jae was a king in business, with pockets so deep he could drown in them. That is, until his life deemed his playthrough unfair and gave him a red card. Poison was his family's best friend, as everyone had at least tasted it once, not twice because they never could. Death was never on his calendar, neither was an offer for a divine gig. Enter the Deity of Stories, a celestial being with a fetish for plot twists, who offers Min Jae a deal he can't refuse: become her divine cameraman. No, not the kind with a lens, but one who records the tales of mortals. In return, he gets a second shot at life, in a world where his dearly departed parents are alive and well, ready to dote on him from birth. Reborn as Judge (because “Min Jae 2.0” sounded too dull), he quickly realizes this new life is no gift. This steampunk utopia, filled with airships, clockwork gadgets, and an alarming lack of Wi-Fi, thrives on manipulation. But who needs the internet when you have a divine camera and the sharp mind to control it all? Judge isn’t just here to record stories; he’s here to write them, casting himself as the mastermind behind every twist and turn. Armed with his divine powers, he navigates complex schemes, power-hungry nobles, and ruthless industrialists, all while keeping his ultimate goal hidden: to ascend to godhood and rewrite his own fate. Of course, he generally makes a glorious mess of things, all while trying to keep his dear parents blissfully unaware of his less-than-angelic schemes. But as the stakes rise and the Deity of Stories watches his every move, Judge must tread carefully. Can he manipulate his way to the top, or will he become just another character in someone else’s plot twist? --- Just a quick disclaimer: The book steers clear of any unwanted adult stuff. However, it does feature a potentially disturbing amount of violence—enough to make you wonder about the author's mental health. So proceed with caution—and maybe a shield!

I recommend " Prosperity and Riches ", an ancient romance novel written by Wan Ge Qing Ya. A modern white-collar worker dressed as a young lady of an ancient down-and-out marquis's house, from honor to hardship to survive. It's very inspirational. " I'm a Wealthy Class Reborn " was a modern romance novel written by Heavenly Drum Banxia. The female protagonist expressed that she was a Wealthy Class in a domineering manner. It was a very cool novel. " Extraordinary Aristocrat ", a fantasy novel created by Halberd and Big Bag 2. The protagonist had transmigrated to the Western Fantasy World. He was a small noble who was involved in the struggle for the throne. He retreated to advance and left the vortex to farm. It was very novel. Although there were flaws, the style was still acceptable and worth reading. " Rich and Noble Lady " was an ancient time-travel novel written by Hua Jiang. The female protagonist time-traveled to become a poor peasant girl and relied on her family and space to become rich. 'The Unlimited God of Riches' was an urban novel that was written under the guise of a celebrity. It was a story between a rich second-generation protagonist and a super-cowardly godly tycoon system. The protagonist was richer than the system, and all kinds of insults against the system were very funny. It was a clean stream in the godly tycoon literature. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
