I died as a hardcore gamer, only to open my eyes in a cultivation fantasy I once played. Not as the hero. Not even as a helpful mentor. or a big villian... But as the cannon fodder destined to die before the first act even concludes.
I recognize this world instantly—the sprawling mansions of nobility, the immortal sects hidden in misty mountains, the power hierarchy where cultivators stand above common folk. I've played through this story dozens of times, defeated every hidden boss, unlocked every secret ending. And now I'm trapped inside it, wearing the skin of the game's first villain.
My position? The worthless young master of a prestigious family, universally despised yet secretly possessing a dormant bloodline that nobody in-game ever discovered because this character dies too quickly.
But something is wrong. Characters are behaving differently than they did in the game. Events are unfolding in unexpected ways. The cold beauty who should immediately despise me seems strangely interested in my skills. The vixen villianess who orchestrated my demise now studies me with curiosity.
Is my presence changing the storyline? Or was there always more to this world than what players could see through their screens?
With each deviation from the script I memorized, my meta-knowledge becomes less reliable. Yet it remains my greatest weapon as I navigate political intrigue, forge unlikely alliances, and desperately work to awaken powers that were never meant to be unlocked by a character designed only to die.
I refuse to be expendable. I reject the role assigned to me. In a world where destiny is supposedly predetermined, I will rewrite the algorithm itself—or break the entire system trying.

Ch 379 - You Treacherous Officials! I'm Going to Find Yino!


Walking across the desert outside Western Province City, Yino had been lecturing Yuyan nonstop about human physiology ever since they'd left the Demon Abyss dimension.


The two were so absorbed in their conversation that they completely ignored the little raccoongirl trailing behind them.


Back in the Demon Abyss, Erli had been too panicked and scared to speak up, so she'd just quietly followed the pair, watching them flirt.


But now she had successfully escaped Demon Abyss alongside Yino.


Setting foot on this Western Region desert again after so long almost brought tears to her eyes.


She wanted to jump and cheer, but when she looked over, she saw Yino and that fairy were still discussing those embarrassing adult topics!


Erli had to speak up and remind them of her presence.
