Aurora22

In a world where kingdoms rise and fall, a seasoned player unexpectedly finds himself transmigrated into the very game he once mastered—Caldera. However, his new life as a ruler comes with a crushing twist: severe debuffs and harsh restrictions on his talents make survival nearly impossible. Against overwhelming odds, he fights tooth and nail to carve out a legacy. Despite his brilliance in strategy and marvels in combat, failure becomes his ultimate fate.

But fate offers him another chance.

Reborn at the start of the game, now without the crippling debuffs and armed with all the knowledge, experience, and hard-won lessons of his previous life, he faces the world anew.

This novel is a bit fast-paced compared to current mainstream trends. It will delve into human nature and how far people are willing to go for meager profit. Most characters will be evil, and even the good ones only appear good because the actions they take align with their own interests, rather than being motivated by true goodness.

Lord of Caldera

The guide trembled, sensing the deadly intent in Sylas's voice. He was beginning to believe that Sylas truly intended to kill him.

"I suppose I don't need to hear your excuses. I'll snap your neck right now and accuse you of trying to recruit me for a rebellion. Let's see how your master responds when the investigation starts."

The guide looked at Sylas in horror. What did he just threaten him with?

Just as Sylas began to tighten his grip, ready to end the man's life, a voice cried out from behind him.

A man burst out urgently, and Sylas raised the corners of his mouth. In truth, he had detected the presence the moment he arrived.

However, he pretended not to notice out of sheer irritation at the man's attempts to play the villain.

Where does this brat think he's posturing?
