Min-jun is a hardcore pro-gamer who only cares about stat optimization. When he agrees to test his sister’s reverse otome MMO for twenty minutes, he mocks the game’s trash-tier villain script and goes to sleep. He wakes up as Lord Raylas — the antagonist destined to be executed in a few chapters. A forced narrative event with negative returns? Hell no. Instead of attending the banquet to humiliate the heroine, Raylas grabs a cheap iron staff and heads into the woods to grind boars and test hitboxes. He just wanted to play a normal MMO, but now he has to speedrun a dating simulator using glitch-exploits just to get a good night’s sleep. When a min-maxing gamer treats a high-society romance plot like a buggy speedrun, the entire game world starts breaking. What to Expect: -Gamer logic & min-maxing -Accidental influence & rizz -Misunderstandings & comedy -Efficiency over destiny -Dungeon & monster grinding What NOT to Expect: -Actual romance or harem -Dense, love-seeking MC -Excessive teenage drama -Following the script -Pointless school-life filler -Edgy, dark tragedy Bonus Chapters: Dropped occasionally depending on free time and reader response! Thank you for reading! Book 1 is fully written, so look forward to a highly consistent release while Book 2 is underway.
