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

It took less than an hour for Luke to defeat and capture every member of the Red Wolf Mercenaries. When he sent them to the rear, silence fell over the battlefield.

Neither side spoke. The allied forces didn't feel victorious, and Conrad's troops couldn't believe what they had witnessed.

"Now then," Luke said, clapping his hands together. The sound drew the attention of both armies.

"Yes… yes, it is," someone stammered.

"So, what are you all standing around for?"

"Attack. The Red Wolf Mercenaries are gone now," Luke said nonchalantly.

The battlefield fell silent again before the allied troops' faces brightened with realization, while Conrad's forces turned pale.

Their final line of defense—the Red Wolf Mercenaries—was gone. All that stood between Luke and victory was a weakened gate.
