"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!

Jareth's body hurtled through the air again, crashing into the broken remains of another siege engine.

The impact sent wooden splinters flying as he tumbled across the bloodstained dirt, groaning as he tried to push himself up.

His vision swam, and pain throbbed in his ribs, but the battlefield's chaos was deafeningly clear.

"Support the captain!" a knight shouted.

"If we kill the Emperor, this war ends!" a mage cried.

With desperation, the knights charged forward, shields raised, swords glinting with aura light. Behind them, the mages chanted, arcane sigils glowing beneath their feet.

Black iron chains erupted from the earth, snaking around Arkanos's limbs, coiling around his torso, pulling him down.

The ground trembled from the sheer power of the Third Circle binding spell.

The mages poured every ounce of their mana into the restraints, the strain visible on their faces.
