La Raza Humana está en guerra con los crueles Dalki y, cuando más que nunca necesitaban ayuda, ELLOS comenzaron a salir a la luz. Humanos que habían estado escondidos en las sombras durante cientos de años, personas con habilidades. Algunos eligieron compartir su conocimiento con el resto del mundo con la esperanza de ganar la guerra, mientras que otros guardaron sus habilidades para sí mismos.

Pero cuando el libro finalmente se abrió, a Quinn le fue otorgado un sistema y toda su vida dio un giro. Completó misiones una tras otra y se volvió más poderoso, hasta que un día el sistema le dio una misión que no estaba seguro de poder completar. —¡Es hora de alimentarse! —Debes beber sangre humana en 24 horas —Tus HP continuarán disminuyendo hasta que se haya completado la tarea.

Hasta que un día... una sirviente que intentó matarlo no terminó muriendo después de que se tocaran. Emmelyn era una princesa de una de sus colonias que juró vengar la muerte de su familia matando al príncipe heredero. Y así es como terminó en su castillo. Viendo que ella era la única mujer con la que podría tener una relación sexual sin matarla, el príncipe hizo un acuerdo para dejarla ir y liberar su reino de su opresión si ella le producía tres herederos. Emmelyn dijo que sí, pero cada día que estaban juntos, ella hacía planes para matarlo y obtener su venganza. ¿Podrá Emmelyn conseguir lo que quiere, o quedará más enredada con el enemigo que fue considerado como el diablo encarnado por sus enemigos? EXTRACTO: —Serás la madre de mis hijos —dijo el hombre con tono autoritario.

Espera un minuto —Emmelyn, que se recuperó de su choque, frotó sus labios rápidamente como si intentara quitar las marcas del diablo de ellos. —¡No quiero ser tu esposa! ¡No quiero casarme contigo, diablo! El hombre frunció el ceño y entrecerró los ojos amenazadoramente. —¿Quién dijo algo sobre matrimonio?

Marcus Evans was the epitome of an ordinary guy—stuck in a dead-end job, addicted to reading webnovels for a taste of excitement, and completely invisible in the grand scheme of life. His greatest joy was escaping into the pages of Decade Long Crusade, a sprawling epic where the hero, Ash Braker, rises from weakness to ultimate power in a world of magic, technology, and danger. But when Marcus wakes up one day in a body that isn’t his, in a world that feels disturbingly familiar, he quickly realizes the impossible: he’s been transmigrated into the Decade Long Crusade universe. However, there’s a catch. He’s not the hero, nor even a notable character. He’s an unknown extra, an expendable background figure doomed to die without making a mark on the story. To survive in a world where extras are crushed underfoot by stronger powers, Marcus knows he can’t play the game like a hero. The only way to protect himself is to manipulate the plot, ensure Ash Braker’s rise to power, and play the part of the ruthless villain who pulls the strings from the shadows. As the world of cultivation, magic, and futuristic technology threatens to swallow him whole, Marcus must make hard decisions, form dangerous alliances, and betray those who stand in his way. Because in this world, it’s better to be the villain than to die forgotten.
