Ronin: ATrash hero
Henry, an 18-year-old gang leader, dies during a school brawl—but instead of fading into darkness, he wakes up in a new world, in a new body. He is now Daniel Johnson, a 16-year-old spoiled brat from Henry’s favorite science-fantasy novel.
But there’s a catch.
Daniel isn’t the hero. He’s the trash character—weak, arrogant, and hated by everyone, including his own family. In the original story, Daniel dies early and is forgotten. Now, Henry is trapped in his body.
Armed with a delinquent’s instincts and full knowledge of the novel’s plot, Henry decides he won’t let this world crush him. If he can’t be the hero, he’ll rewrite the rules. He’ll survive. He’ll rise.
But in a world where power determines worth, monsters roam the wilds, and secret factions fight from the shadows, being trash is a death sentence.
Can Henry change Daniel’s fate?
Can a villain rise in a world built for heroes?
Or will he be consumed by the very story he thought he knew?
This is not the tale of a chosen one.
This is the rise of the unwanted.
The rebirth... of a trash villain.
