Ashok Kumar Maurya, a hardcore gamer, is shocked to find himself transmigrated to the world of his recent Open-World game. But the real surprise comes when he discovers his new body isn't any of the familiar characters he once controlled. The owner of this body is some exiled noble named Adlet. An Extra. An UNKNOWN THIRD-RATE EXTRA. Ashok is greeted by the "System," which reveals he was chosen for his perfect game ending. However, due to angering the God of Fate with vulgarities, he’s stuck with an insignificant body. As a result, the System gives him a quest from the God of Fate to preserve his life. [Main Quest: Achieve the Best Perfect Ending again. Reward for Success: Any wish, including returning to the previous world. Failure or Rejection: Death.] Just because a Quest is assigned to me, does that mean I must perform well in the role I'm given, that of a Third-rate Extra? With all the knowledge I possess, I refuse to settle for the role of a Third rate Extra, so I chose a new path for myself—the role of a VILLAIN. After all, playing the Hero would only end up in repeating what I did in the game, which is far too boring. However, to fully embrace this new role, I must rid myself of the old one. To do so, 'I sacrificed the System and original Adlet's soul to the HIDDEN FINAL BOSS, a beautiful Goddess.' ……………. Follow the journey of Ashok, or the new Adlet, an unknown extra, into a true Villain. Armed with his knowledge of the game world, Ashok uses it as his weapon to overpower the original main characters and even challenge the Gods themselves, carving his path to power and domination with a loving goddess by his side. ................ >>>>HAREM: YES >>>>Detailed Plot: YES >>>> NTR: NO >>>> System: Sacrificed

Welcome, dear reader (or accidental wanderer), to this peculiar little story of mine. While there’s a slim chance you might find it interesting, let’s not get our hopes up too high. This is less of a masterpiece and more of an outlet for my chaotic imagination. Honestly, I wouldn’t recommend reading this. It’s like wandering into a mysterious forest with no map, no snacks, and a questionable pair of shoes. Save yourself the trouble. Turn back now. Go read something award-winning, life-changing, or at least mildly coherent. Still here? Well, aren’t you a brave soul. Fine, then. Join me as I stumble through this strange tale, weaving it one thread at a time—some sweet, some salty, and some… well, let’s just call them “experimental.” Expect the unexpected, or perhaps just expect the absurd. Thank you for reading this far. You’re far too kind, honestly. You deserve better than this mess, but if you’re determined to stick around, I promise I’ll try to make it worth your while. Probably. Maybe. (No guarantees, though.) Now, onwards, my adventurous friend! Let’s see where this wild, nonsensical path takes us.

And as he pieces together his strange new reality, he realizes he’s living as a minor villain destined to be forgotten after being defeated by the protagonist! And now... "Fuck this shit, why did it happen to me?" He must adapt to survive in this world.

"Ah fuck." Kenji was a normal overworked yet underpaid employee who liked absolutely nothing other than sleeping. One fortunate [unfortunate] day, she died a peaceful [gruesome] death in the hands of her lover [classic and fucking hilarious because who would die from a heart attack watching her lover fuck a whore] and transmigrated in a trashy, shitty, totally useless waste of paper, F-Rated novel that was criticized by the readers of badungdung platform for its grade school writing style [Hey! That's not true]. "Shut the fuck up, you crazy system. Butt in the narration one more time and i'll hang you upside down with a hole in your pants." Ahem. Well, trust me when I say though, that transmigrating is the least of her problems right now. After all, she have died twelve times. Whether she becomes an obedient pet, a kind master, a powerful villain, a cute heroine, or an npc you can't see in the background- her death, is absolute. That was until, the system made a mistake. [Welcome host! Congratulations for being granted, yet another opportunity to reincarnate. Please press restart to gain automatic 100 points. However, due to excessive internal system overload, all the previous progress was automatically deleted.] "This is fucking insane. Delete the system." [Yes host, commencing the command delete sys- WAIT ARE YOU CRAZY? I KNEW THIS BITCH HAS SOME LOSE SCREWS IN THE HEAD, THE MANAGEMENT BETTER COMPENSATE ME. MY LIFE IS ON THE LINE AND YOU GIVE ME A HOST WITH SOME LOOSE SCREW? FUCK! I'M COMPLAINING TO THE MANAGE- Ah shit.] "Complain to who, sweetheart?" [...] "Well, It's a little bit too late for that sweetheart. Alright, you better listen to me before I blow both of our heads off." [Bloody hell]

At that time, I had just lost my job, was so broke I could barely afford food, and the few crumpled bills left in my wallet seemed to be fighting each other. Just then, I spotted a job ad for a hotel doorman with the enticing words: “High pay, easy work, free meals, and lodging!” I felt a surge of excitement—being a doorman? Just standing by the door and greeting people? That’s easy! But on my first day, I realized this place was a total nightmare. Each guest was scarier than the last! Some wore all black with daggers on their belts, others walked in with sunglasses and hats pulled low, and one guy even carried a black bag, from which a few shell casings casually fell out. And wait, what’s up with the blood-soaked guy in a hockey mask…

A girl named Karin accidentally gets involved in a murder case at her school. It all started when she accidentally found the body of the school janitor behind the warehouse. This piqued her curiosity about what had happened. She still clearly remembers the blood pooling, turning the grass red. The body lay sprawled with several stab wounds. The corpse looked like a small animal, helpless before its predator, dead just like that. Before discovering the body, she crossed paths with a man. A tall man with a mask and dark sunglasses covering his face. The man also wore a hat to cover his hair. His clothes appeared to be layered, and he carried a large bag that seemed very heavy. However, there was something the man could not hide. The clear scent of blood emanating from his body. Karin had a sharp sense of smell and she was certain the odor she detected was blood. Chaos erupted in the school environment. People started forming their own opinions. Karin was the one most affected. She was often questioned about the body she found. People kept asking her to recount the story. At that moment, a new teacher arrived, diverting the attention of the school community. A young teacher with a handsome face that drew everyone's attention. The murder case faded away just like that. The police couldn't find any more clues. When people started to forget, Karin felt something was off. The young teacher looked strange in her eyes. Karin felt that the teacher was constantly watching her. The teacher also had a blacklist that he showed to his students. He said the book was a record for the naughty children. If their offenses exceeded three times, those naughty ones would be punished. That's when the next murder began.

When I opened my eyes, I found myself face to face with Darius Thorne, the main character of [Arcanus Academy], who was looking at me with disdain. Many questions raced through my mind. What is happening? Is this a dream? Why won't he stop yelling? Am I dead? Does he have something stuck in his teeth? Have I somehow entered the world of my favorite game, like in those Web Novels I read so often? I opened my mouth, about to ask one of the many questions that had come to mind upon realizing the huge mess I was in. What I was about to say would be my first words in this new world. I had to be careful; the slightest mistake could worsen my current situation, which, judging by how things looked, didn’t seem good at all. "Can you get that thing out of your teeth? It's distracting me." Everyone nearby fell silent and stared at me until a burst of laughter erupted. Darius covered his mouth, clearly embarrassed.

“These bedchambers have missed your scent.” His voice, low and rough, made her pulse quicken. Her fear surged, boundless, as he closed the stained glass doors behind him. “Please… let me go,” she pleaded, trembling as he pulled her close, his touch burning against her skin. “You fled this place while carrying my child. Why did you come back?” he murmured, his lips trailing down her neck as they had so many times before. “I… don’t know,” she managed, her voice barely a whisper. Luciana Mircea de Amanécer, princess of the Holy Empire that ruled the skies, had once lived in a world of beauty and privilege—a devoted father, joyful sisters, wealth, and a loving fiancé. Yet that life shattered with a single conversation. One day, her father appeared in her chambers, eyes solemn, bearing news that upended her world. “You will be married,” he said, but the name wasn’t that of the man she cherished. Instead, she was to be wed to the ruthless crown prince of the rival Demon Empire, an alliance forged to quell the simmering tensions between their kingdoms. “Father, please…” she begged. “My child,” he murmured, his voice heavy with regret. “It is your duty as the firstborn princess. This marriage will protect the realm… and your little sisters.” For the first time in her life, Luciana saw him bow to her, his plea wordless but clear. Yielding to her father’s desperate request, she accepted her fate. In a single day, she went from princess to wife, her dreams abandoned and her future reshaped. But the white wedding gown was soon stained crimson, marking her descent into a life she could never have anticipated. Could she learn to accept a man for whom compassion was an unfamiliar luxury, or would the love she had left behind rise to rescue her?
