Reincarnated As The Villain's Puppet

Anastacius's gaze lingered on his reflection, his eyes tracing the delicate features that seemed almost otherworldly. No matter how many times he saw himself, he couldn't shake off the feeling of disconnect. His looks were like something out of a fantasy novel - the kind of beauty that belonged to a protagonist, not a real person.

But Anastacius knew the truth. He was reincarnated into a novel, one of those clichéd tales where a long-lost daughter returns to reclaim her rightful place. The story was predictable, with a power-hungry villain who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. The villain's obsession with power had led to the brutal murder of the Duke's wife and newborn child. The baby, miraculously, had survived, but had gone missing.

Remember that Anastacius is in a novel he read before dying. And he has reincarnated as the villain's puppet.

How will he escape his fate? Will he be able to reveal the truth of being Female lead's half brother?

Will Cius be accepted by his father the Duke kesher?

Will He survive till the end?
