Synopsis

:)

Chapter 1Chapter

Gerhan was living a simple life—one that was far from the grand, adventurous tales he had often read about. Somehow, he had been reincarnated into this world, which was almost like Earth but a bit… duller. Sure, it had books—an endless supply of them, particularly stories about reincarnation and rebirth. There were also dramas, though he couldn't imagine anyone willingly watching those.

"Whatever," he thought, brushing the idea aside.

After his reincarnation, he found himself with new parents, but they had tragically passed away, leaving him a decent inheritance—enough to live a quiet, uneventful life. He had rented a small apartment, and for the most part, his days were simple. He didn't need to work. Instead, he spent his time lying in bed, budgeting just enough to survive while avoiding any unnecessary spending.

At least he had books. Cool stories about heroes, magic, and systems that made life infinitely more interesting than this world. Those stories made everything bearable.

One day, while walking down the street, he glanced at the buildings, his mind wandering. He had no destination, really, just a vague goal of grabbing something to eat. When he entered the store, a scene outside caught his attention—some poor guy getting beaten up in broad daylight.

"This world sucks," Gerhan muttered under his breath, shaking his head.

Fighting wasn't his strong suit, nor was playing the hero, so like everyone else, he ignored it. It wasn't his business, after all. He grabbed some instant noodles from the store shelf, along with his favorite items—milk and carrots. The milk was cold and tasty, and carrots? Well, he figured they were good for his eyesight, even if he didn't particularly care for them.

Walking back to his apartment, he stumbled upon yet another unpleasant sight. This time, a group of delinquents was bullying a young couple. Everyone on the street pretended not to see it, hurrying along as though nothing was happening. Gerhan sighed, cursing his luck. Why was he always the one to witness these things?

He turned his head away and started walking faster, his mind made up to avoid trouble. Still, guilt nagged at him. Pulling out his phone, he called the cops and reported the address.

"Feels good," he thought with a small smile. "Like I'm a real hero."

Back at his apartment, he surveyed his surroundings. The place was nothing special: a tiny kitchen, a small bathroom, and a bedroom with just the basics. No TV—it was a waste, anyway. At least he still had a phone, though there weren't many good games to play. This world's technology was underwhelming. His phone's main purpose, it seemed, was making ghost calls—just useless, idle interactions.

Gerhan flopped onto his bed, staring at the ceiling. His mind wandered back to the countless isekai stories he had read—about heroes saving worlds, losers rising to greatness, and people awakening systems that gave them incredible powers.

"How cool would that be?" he murmured, a tinge of longing in his voice.

But here he was, reincarnated whit nothing special. No powers, no system, not even a grand destiny. Just an ordinary, dull existence.

He let out a sigh. "Reincarnated to enjoy life? What kind of luck is this?"

For a moment, he thought that saying those words might trigger something—a beep, a system activation, anything. He even paused to listen.

Nothing.

"Of course not," he muttered, rolling his eyes. "All those stories are fake."

Nothing.

He turned off the lights, let out another sigh, and closed his eyes, letting sleep take him.

Young Master's PoV: Woke Up As A Villain In A Game One Day

"Now you see?" she shouted in a mix of annoyance and disappointment. "You can't outsmart Scrients! They're the most intelligent beings across the two realms." "You're right," I muttered, averting my gaze with a heavy sigh. "I made a mistake. I was too arrogant to think that a mere human like me could fool them." —BOOM!! "Heik! Wh-What was that?" "Hmm? I'm not sure. Maybe you should go and ask the most intelligent beings across the two realms. Oh wait, you can't. I killed them all.” ______ My name is Samael Kaizer Theosbane. On the last day of high school, I got into a fight with a kid I used to bully. It was a stupid, pointless scuffle, and in the middle of it, I tripped and hit my head on a rock. That’s when the memories came flooding in - the memories of another life, of a different world. Suddenly, everything made a twisted kind of sense. I realized two things. First, I was in a game I used to play in my past life. Second, I was a villain. A villain! Not the cool and mysterious kind, either. No, my destiny was to be manipulated and die a dog's death! I was the worst type of cliché: an ungrateful, privileged, insufferable young master. The sort you'd find in those poorly written fantasy stories. The kind everyone hates — a snobby brat from a powerful noble family who thinks he owns the world just because he was born with a silver spoon lodged in his mouth. You know the type. The one the hero beats to a pulp to prove his worth. Yeah, I was that guy. And the hero? The hero was the kid I’d been bullying all this time. The same one I got into a fight with. He was the supposed savior of this damned world. A world teetering on the edge of destruction, beset by wars, calamities, and a grim future that only I knew. And at the end of it all, the final antagonist of the game, the undefeatable boss… the Spirit King, was waiting. But could I even make it to the end? Could I conquer a game where defeat was the only certainty? A game that was now my reality! “Ah, fuck it.” I had no idea if I could, but I sure as hell was going to try. Extorting extras, manipulating main characters, twisting the story to my advantage, stealing the hero’s cheat items, killing villains before they could become threats - nothing was beneath me. Would the main characters be affected? Who cares! Would the story change? Even better! All I cared about was me—my survival, my life, my choices. “I will live this life with no regrets.” …But as I soon discovered, fate was not easily changed. And the price of altering one's destiny was steep.
