"World conquest was never part of the plan." 

Yu Chen was just an ordinary programmer, slaving away at his desk, fixing bugs for a popular kingdom-building game. 

His life was a cycle of endless work, sleepless nights, and little appreciation. One fateful night, while struggling to fix a game-breaking bug that granted players an absurd amount of upgrade points, his exhausted heart gave out. 

But death wasn't the end for Yu Chen. He awoke in a world strangly familiar... he had transmigrated into the very game he had been working on, now inhabiting the body of a notorious tyrant emperor, Arkanos Bloodbane, whose empire was on the brink of destruction.

Surrounded by enemies, with rebellions simmering within and war on every front, Yu Chen, now Arkanos, quickly realizes the gravity of his situation. 

But to his shock, he discovers that he still has access to the game's system interface—complete with the million upgrade points from the bug he had tried to fix! 

With his knowledge of game mechanics, strategic mind, and a wealth of upgrade points, Arkanos sets out to turn the crumbling empire into an unstoppable force. He begins by summoning legendary heroes, deploying advanced technologies never before seen in this world, and revolutionizing his military and infrastructure. 

As he pushes his empire to greatness, Arkanos must navigate the treacherous politics of the imperial court, fend off treacherous factions, and outmaneuver the rival nations that seek to destroy him. But with each victory, he realizes that this world is not just a game—it's his new reality. The stakes are higher, the dangers more real, and the consequences of failure more dire than ever.

Kingdom Building Game: Starting Out With A Million Upgrade Points!

As Herald walked down the dimly lit hallway, his footsteps echoing faintly, Cedric called out from behind him.

"Herald!" Quickening his pace, Cedric caught up, falling into step beside him.

Cedric leaned in slightly, lowering his voice. "What's this deal with Jareth about Arkanos? I thought we planned to deal with him at Baron Malkier's daughter's wedding. Assassinating him there would be ideal since we won't have to confront his holy abilities head-on."

He glanced around before continuing in an even quieter tone. "And don't forget, those people we've been dealing with—they want his body intact. We can't afford any missteps if we're to hand it over in the best condition possible."

Herald's lips curled into a sly smile. "Of course, that's still the plan."

Cedric's brows furrowed. "Then what was all that with Jareth?"

Herald chuckled lightly. "Let's just say, sometimes you have to lie to stay on the good side of those who need to be lied to."
