My name is Joo In-gong. The name that my parents gave me meant ‘protagonist’ of the world. Really?

Liu Yuan is a good game player, especially in the MMORPG Upper Center. Just as he succeeded in gaining the favorability of all the possible characters in Upper Center, he transmigrated. To where? Oops, he transmigrated into the game he was playing.What he saw was a pretty girl. She wept incessantly, failing to notice Liu Yuan’s unusual behavior. She looked up with teary eyes and said in a firm way, “Mr. Junxuan, I will not marry him. I wish to be with you for the rest of my life!” Junxuan… Wasn’t that his username in the game?

He’s building a machine designed for one purpose: to dominate.This is the story of a young genius who declares war on the old ways, determined to build an empire so successful it will force his father, and the entire football world, to admit he was right.Can a club without a soul conquer the beautiful game?

They called me Evelina Hartgrave—the jealous heiress, the scheming villainess, the girl everyone loves to destroy.But I’m not her.I’m Reina Tanaka, a tired college dropout who used to play this stupid dating sim every night just to forget my own life. I killed Evelina hundreds of times—poisoned, exposed, humiliated—all for the heroine’s happy ending.Now I’ve woken up as her.In her penthouse. Wearing her diamond necklace. With a dozen death flags already blinking above my head. One wrong option… and I might die—by my brother’s hand, the male lead’s blade, or even by a bug bite.This whole world is against me.How am I supposed to survive in this game when even the system wants me dead? If I refuse its commands, the system punishes me—and the punishment can be fatal.So tell me… How does a villainess live long enough to change the ending?when both the world and the code are written to destroy her?
