His voice was thick with emotion, reflecting something broken within him. "This is such a cheap weapon, girl; you can't seduce me."Tears were rolling down her eyes as he grinned.

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.

pembunuhan? ah hal yang mengerikan. kenapa harus ada pembunuh? apa yang mereka pikirkan hingga berani mengambil nyawa seseorang. bukankah itu terlalu keji, pasti korban nya sangat ketakutan dan histeris. aku bertanya tanya, apa pembunuh pernah menyesali perbuatan mereka setelah melakukan aksinya? seperti pada dilena kali ini, malangnya dilena. wanita baik hati dan cantik itu harus berakhir mengerikan di gang sempit rumahnya. di sana gelap dan sepi, aku rasa dia sudah menangis dan terus kesakitan. "tolong ampuni aku" kata kata itu, pasti dia menyebutnya dengan menggosok kedua tangannya meminta ampun. aku benar benar membenci pembunuh, apa dia menyesal membunuhnya? apa dia tau gadis seperti apa yang dia renggut nyawanya? apa dia pernah datang ke lokasi kejadian dan minta maaf? apa dia pernah sekali saja menangis untuk setiap nyawa yang ia ambil? kapan Tuhan akan menghukum mereka? aku ingin menjadi Tuhan sekali saja dan membuat nya merasakan hal yang setimpal. haruskah? maka aku harus. "tebak, tebak, tebak, ayo sembunyi. aku mulai mencari mu, jadi berlari dan sembunyi saja. aku akan mengantar mu dengan setiap dosa mu, bahkan neraka pun akan enggan menerima mu" credit by @lyoudrubylod
