The Lazy Prince Will Save His Kingdom!

My name is Hideo. Back on Earth, I was nothing more than an ordinary player of this game—spending countless hours conquering maps, managing taxes, building armies, and replaying save files to reach the true ending of my favorite kingdom-building game. But when I opened my eyes again, that world was no longer on a screen. I reincarnated as Ezia Laon, the heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Skradings—a nation on the brink of bankruptcy and destruction. Its territory had shrunk, its military was fragile and just newly reformed, its nobles were corrupt, and its people had long since lost faith in the crown. In the original storyline, Skradings was nothing more than a failed kingdom, doomed to collapse sooner or later, depending on the player's actions and choice. The problem was…I was the person who knew exactly how this game ended. With the knowledge gained from hundreds of hours of gameplay, hidden events, branching political decisions, secret development paths, and the fatal consequences of even the smallest mistake, I understood that this world was far more complex than it appeared. There were countless bad endings, a handful of normal endings, and only a single true ending that I determined to try. Now, with no reset, no load, and no second chance, I must rule this kingdom for real. I have to stabilize the economy before the nation collapses.Make political decisions that could spark rebellion.Choose allies and enemies who will decide the fate of the continent.And face the reality that the NPCs I once treated as mere pieces on a board now possess lives, emotions, and wills of their own. If I fail, the Kingdom of Skradings will fall, and my life will end with it. With a fragile throne in my hands and the future of the world at stake, I, Hideo, now known as Ezia Laon, will use every bit of my knowledge and experience to defy the fate of this game… and unlock the one ending that was never meant to be reached.
