Alaric Caelum wakes inside a female-lead fantasy novel as the villain who dies early. A Foundation stage nobody dares to slander a Transcendence stage cultivator? Not today. Armed with brutal power and zero moral restraint, Alaric dismantles enemies one humiliating lesson at a time. The so-called Chosen One wants help? Sure, at a price. An unbeatable opponent? One word to his father, a celestial Ascendant King, and the problem disappears. Being a villain has its perks: no conscience, no rules, and absolutely no one left to guilt-trip him.
