In the ten minutes that I spent playing the dating simulation, I was transmigrated. Thankfully, the person I had possessed was a noble so my life should be full of luxury and comfort right? Right? "The prominence of our family comes from the blessing bestowed upon us by the royal family throughout the generations." Perhaps this is the cost associated with that. However, my father appears overly devoted to the Emperor. And as a consequence of this, I had no choice but to enter the public service. While romance is enjoyed by all others. All I do is work as a civil servant throughout the day. Note: MC does not have any cheats,MC is not simp,Doesnt have any kind of NTR,Smart MC.

What would you do if you had been reborn in a world that was constantly on the brink of war? That's what this story is all about. Sam finds himself reborn in a country that is facing major internal and external challenges. The only cheat he has is his adult mind in the body of a child. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I had been enveloped in the world of dreams throughout my existence, searching for meaning in the mundane nothingness of existence, when suddenly, my life ended in a bright flurry of fast-moving images. Something must have hit me; that was all my thoughts could process before the void took me. I regained consciousness in what I could only describe as limbo. My consciousness was fleeting and every moment I felt parts of me disintegrate. I attempted to gather my meagre understanding of all that I was and cocoon it inside a deep well of thoughts, but I felt my attempts were futile as slowly I lost who I was. As time, perhaps eons passed by, I saw it. I saw the light of a new reality emerge. I was reborn. Only this world held none of the security of my past life.
