"In this world, morality is but a thin line away from depravity, and the most captivating tales are often shrouded behind the veil of insanity."

I was just an ordinary guy, living a dull and unremarkable life as an editor.

But when a maniac author killed me for rejecting his novel in a writing competition, I reopened my eyes in a modern fantasy world.

"Hmm? Wait, this world…."

But fate, being a prude little bitch, played a twisted joke on me.

I reincarnated into the very same novel that I rejected for the competition award, written by the very same author who killed me for it.

Not only that, but I transmigrated into the body of a disowned noble named Lucas Morningstar.

Lucas was a minor antagonist in a novel who served as a stepping stone for the protagonist and their allies.

Arghh….

Of all the people, I just had to be reborn as someone who was despised by the main characters the most at this point in the story?

B-But hey, with my knowledge of the future and understanding of the main characters, I can at least live an easy life! 

Right...?

"Yeah, I can work with this!"

Or so I thought until I remembered the ending arcs of the book.

This world is destined for doom!

And not so long after, I started to realize that the novel and the world I transmigrated into might not be as similar as I had originally thought….

*The MC will seem a little bit (ok let's be honest, more than a little bit) foolish in the first 30-35 chaps but don't be fooled. 

I ask you to read the first 50 chapters before deciding to trash-talk the MC because that's where his borderline psychopathic strategist personality starts to surface.

I Will Kill The Author

[Cadet Quinn Darkstar#000016 has been eliminated by you.]

The translucent blue system window that floated in front of me was proof of that.

No, I wasn't shocked because I defeated Quinn. That was all but decided from the moment he chose to fight me.

The thing that irked me was how I killed him. Especially how I dealt the last blow…

It took everything I had in me and some cheap tricks to pull this victory over him.

Oh, and thank god I had Quinn as my opponent and not Nero. The tricks I used on Quinn would've never worked on that monster of a main character.

If I want to save this damned world and, by extension, save myself, I'll have to get stronger.

Well, that's the reason I worked so hard in the mock war.

I've almost secured two pawns and gained some influence over the main cast.
