Rocco Di Malvento lived a short, but loving life in his previous world, surrounded by a caring family. Despite suffering from a terminal illness, he found solace in books, especially his favorite BL novel >. But when he dies, he wakes up in an unexpected new life—as the weak, neglected second son of a powerful mafia family. 

Now reborn in the world of the novel, Rocco finds himself in a terrifying situation: he's the useless younger brother of Sylas, the main protagonist, and likely doomed to die young unless he changes the course of his life. So, what's his plan? Simple—befriend the protagonist, avoid being a spoiled brat, and secretly recruit Sylas's future allies to protect him. 

First target? Georgio the Hyena, an infamous killer. Rocco's strategy: charm the terrifying man and make him his ally instead of Sylas’s. 

It's a ridiculous plan, but hey, at least Rocco is trying. Can he survive the mafia world and avoid his tragic fate? He hopes so. After all, he’s just a kid trying to make the most of his second chance!

…What was up with that difference?

"Alright, where should I start? Maybe with the biggest problem right now—the Duke."

"Hold it. Why are you the one leading this discussion?"

Sylas's exasperated comment was completely ignored as Laxus took a sip of tea and gracefully began his explanation.

"Your grandfather is the man called Duke Wimburg Von Jashin, one of the most prestigious and influential nobles in the kingdom."

Rocco's mother's father—his grandfather.

In the original story, his mother had only been a minor villain, a background character, so her origins were never explored.

This was the first time Rocco was learning about this so-called duke.

From this point on, even his knowledge of the original work wouldn't help him.
