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

"Assistance, is it?" Bjorn murmured as he set down Sylas's letter. Surrounding him were the northern nobles gathered for the meeting, their faces tense with anticipation.

"What do you propose we do?" he asked, looking around the room.

"We must support Lord Sylas to the best of our ability," declared one noble, his voice ringing with conviction. "He is the hero and savior of the North. Distance and circumstances are no excuse to ignore his plight."

"Fine words," a younger noble countered with a frown. The South and the North were located at opposite ends of the continent. Supporting Sylas seemed a logistical nightmare.

"What exactly can the North offer in support? Apart from strong men and gemstones, we have little else to give. And he has already said he doesn't need troops."

"Then we should send gemstones!" another noble interjected.
