The Villain Wants to Live
Most people dream of escaping into a fantasy game, but for Kim Woo-Jin, waking up as the arrogant Professor Deculein is a literal death sentence. After a bitter breakup, the game developer decided to polish his virtual alter ego with a few noble traits, never imagining he would be forced to inhabit the body of the very villain destined to be slaughtered by the protagonist. Now, he is trapped in a world where every side character is a threat and every single choice could trigger a fatal end. With a survival rate of practically zero and the weight of a dying empire on his shoulders, he has to navigate a labyrinth of political intrigue and magical warfare using nothing but his wits and the perfectionist traits he coded himself. He does not want power, and he does not want glory—he just wants to make it out alive. But in a story designed for his destruction, can a villain truly rewrite the stars and earn a second chance at life?
