Eternal Cycle: The Reader Who Became the Final Boss
Riven Cross was just an ordinary man in an unremarkable world—an office worker by day, a lone reader by night. His only escape? A web novel called "Dungeon of Realms: Rise of the Tarot King"—a sprawling epic of dungeon crawls, Tarot-wielding warriors, reincarnated heroes, and a world governed by fate.
He had followed every chapter religiously. He knew every plot twist, every dungeon, every villain, every system bug… until the day the story ended with Chapter 999.
But for Riven, that was not the end.
That night, as he closed the final chapter, he was pulled into the novel itself—not as a hero, not even as a side character, but as the Final Boss—the one who was never supposed to appear until the very last page.
Now trapped inside the very narrative he once read, Riven finds himself armed with the Meta Reader System, a broken interface that lets him manipulate scenes, peek into future events, and alter characters’ destinies—at a price. Each use brings him closer to losing his identity, or worse... becoming part of the story forever.
To survive, he must conquer the 108 dungeons, outsmart Tarot-bound Lords, defy the divine plot, and rewrite a fate written in blood and betrayal. As the original protagonist begins to lose his mind, and secret organizations rise from the shadows, Riven must become more than a reader—he must become the author of destiny itself.
But how far will he go to change a story he was never meant to enter?
And in the end...
Will he save the world?
Or become the monster he once feared?
