Arthur Grail, a hardcore player of the VRMMO Trinity Star Online, woke up one day in the body of Gerard Astoria—a petty villain fated to die before the main story even began. To make matters worse, Gerard's death was a crucial event in the game's narrative. If he didn’t meet his predetermined end, it could disrupt the story entirely, leading the universe toward one of the countless "bad end" routes!

Unwilling to leave his fate to chance, Arthur decided to take matters into his own hands—recruiting the "player" as his partner to help him clear the game and rewrite his destiny.

But wait—"Why is the player not a dude but a sharp-tongued beauty instead?!"

Follow Arthur's odyssey, filled with trouble at every turn, as he works to uncover the mystery behind his awakening in a universe eerily similar to Trinity Star Online's setting, all while trying to save the entire universe… without forgetting to enjoy himself!

Fated to Die to the Player, I’ll Live Freely with My SSS-Class Ship!

Within the Astoria's fleet, there was only a single super-sized Leviathan-class ship present. It was, of course, the flagship where President Anderson Phi Astoria was stationed, overseeing the war proceedings.

"Report! Sectors 5 to 18, 22 to 39, and 37 to 47 have been taken over by the enemy! Encroached zones increased from 5.7% to 9.3%!"

"Battles under Sectors 156 to 1005 have settled, and we've won 76% of the skirmishes!"

"Overall damage to our troops is estimated to reach 15% in the next hour! The enemy's estimated damage has stabilized at 28%, barely increasing!"

Voices echoed across the bridge, throwing reports left and right.

Anderson didn't need to listen to each voice individually—

After all, their reports were automatically reflected on the Star Map, thanks to the ship's AI.

Even so, the deep frown on his face only hardened.
