In his previous world, X was a feared and brilliant criminal. He led a massive criminal organization, possessed sharp strategic intelligence, and had enough power to challenge entire nations. Though ruthless, he lived by his own principles and morals. 

One day, after completing a fantasy war game in his free time he transmigrates into that very world.

But not as the hero.

He awakens in the body of Kael Frost, the game's final villain.

In the original game, Kael was a noble born into the Frost Dukedom, which was the strongest after the royal family. He had no interest in training or holding his families legacy despite being the heir to the House Frost. He was a prime example of a spoiled noble brat.

Seeing his constant failures and pathetic state, his family especially his father Castor Frost started to neglect him entirely. Discussions were held to appoint Kael's younger brother Kevin as the heir to the Dukedom. 

Enraged by his family's actions Kael began to behave in more pathetic ways as some sort of revenge. His relations with everyone started to deteriorate further and a public conflict during a grand banquet marked his complete breakdown from his household. Soon after, Kael disappeared from the society.

A year later, driven by hatred and despair, he performed a forbidden ritual that granted him immense power in exchange for his emotions and sanity. The ritual succeeded, but turned him into a psychopathic mass murderer. Though powerful enough to nearly defeat the protagonist in the final  arc, he ultimately lost due to his madness and the hero's many allies.

That was how the game ended.

This time, the transmigration happens after the ritual is completed.

X inherits Kael's fully awakened powers while retaining his sanity, intelligence, and fragments of emotion from his previous life. With strength untouched by madness, he becomes far more dangerous than Kael ever was.

2 years later as admissions begin for the prestigious Namda Academy, the villain re-enters the world stage. Nobles are accepted automatically, while commoners must pass exams that test intellect, psychology, and potential.

With knowledge of the game's future and the mind of a genius strategist, the final boss steps onto a new path.

Even if my emotions were somehow amplified, my willpower was strong enough to keep my brain in control and not succumb to the intensity of the emotions.


Though I knew that it would be arrogant of me to think that the amplified emotions would not have any effect on me whatsoever.


The headaches that had constantly plagued me for the last two years had been reduced to a near negligible level, yet I knew that there was still some issue with my soul.


Even if I was in control of the body, I didn't know anything about Kael's real soul.


I couldn't even tell if the person in control was me, though my memories on Earth felt like the dominant ones, so maybe I was the one in control.


Then there was that thing about my sudden memory loss—


Yeah... The headaches had indeed reduced, but again making my mind go through emotional fluctuations didn't seem to be the best decision... Not that I had any choice in it.
