In one fateful night, Oliver's peaceful life ended.
A fatal hit to the head comatose him eventually leading to his death.
But just as he thought everything was over, he transmigrated into the novel he was reading before he died.
"Manipulator, Manipulated."
A story about a young knight finding his place in a cruel world.
Jericho Desil, a handsome black haired man with captivating turquoise eyes.
He was deemed a hero for his valiant efforts in battle at a young age of 20 and met the love of his life, Alexandria Bailey, the female lead, in a ball.
Unfortunately for him, his sudden status created for a perfect target, a perfect puppet.
Liam Pyo Marquette, the antagonist, saw him as the best chess piece. One that would change the tides of battle. A battle of succession.
Liam is the second bastard prince of the Zeneayia Kingdom. But despite his rotten reputation, he still fought for the position of heir.
But regardless of what he does, he was always overshadowed by his brother Pierre. Loved and revered by many. Compared to his cruel persona, he was despised.
When he saw the rising hero, greed took over him and saw victory within the individual.
Like dominos, everything fell into place.
Or so he planned.
The story ended after resolving a world ending predicament from Liam's rash decisions.
The boy that greed took over, made him have a fate worse that death.
And right now, he was that boy.
The trash second prince, a good for nothing, hated, and despised.
Having read the whole story, Oliver knew the consequences of his actions.
Transmigrated in a world at it's tipping point, where one mistake can very well end it.
Oliver walks down the very same path as the antagonist to avoid altering the future.
Changing only what's necessary to avoid the deadly butterfly effect for he wasn't the only villain in this story.
"I'll...just find a way to avoid my doom,"
"After I save this world."

Honestly, I don't give a rat's ass about anything from the storyline. Those fucking capture targets are so damn stupid, falling for an idiotic birdbrain heroine. Actually, they probably only fell in love with her for their egos. Why should I ever feel that they're a threat to my life? I'm a duke and duchess' daughter of a powerful kingdom, I'm smart, beautiful, and powerful. I'm just generally better than them. Yeah, I'll just focus on my work as the heir of the dukedom, spoil my brother, improve my magic and swordsmanship, play around, and kill annoying people. This shall be my new life as the prodigy of the century!
This is my own story, not fanfiction. All my characters are original.
Yes, like all of the other villainess novels out there, we have transmigration in to a villain. And yes, this is like all of the other novels out there, we do have a Mary Sue as our protagonist.
Edit: Okay, I'm done, I think. Is there going to be another book? YES!! PS. Changed the cover pagelol
