No Empire for Old Hero

Luca Moretti was just an ordinary web reader—until he woke up inside “Bound by Fate,” a tragic BL novel where he’s transmigrated as the main character. So, he should be happy, right? Life should be easy since he is the main character? Wrong. Instead, Luca screamed to the heavens, “Why, goooooooooooooooood?! Why him?! I could’ve been a side character... even a nobody! Why the main character?!” Because in the end, the hero sacrifices him to save others. But Luca refuses to play along. "I’ll just ignore both the hero and the villain. No big deal, right? Easy." Except fate keeps popping him in front of the hero, making his heart race unnecessarily. And when all escape routes fail, Luca makes his final, desperate choice—walking straight into the devil’s den. Even if the villain is a complete psychopath, playing with people’s lives as if they’re pieces in an online game. But to stay alive, Luca has only one option—obey the villain. "You’re so pretty," Salvo murmured, his wicked smile curling as he tilted Luca’s chin up as he knelt before him. “Truly, you belong to me.” Luca swallowed hard. Salvo’s eyes darkened. "Remember... you belong to me now.”

There is a shard of the Creator in every being. But not everyone knows what to do with it. He did not come for glory. He never asked for this life. He was cast into this world — a fragment torn from another realm, another will. And now this world… will be saved by him, or fall by his hand. You can’t call him a hero. Not yet a monster either. He walks the path of light because he remembers pain. But with every death, every evil he fails to stop in time, something else begins to grow inside him. Sharper. Merciless. In his eyes — a world unworthy of forgiveness. In his heart — a despair that has not yet smothered the last embers of hope. Only one thing remains unknown: When the moment of choice comes — will he remain the one others follow… or become the flame that devours all? — A story of one who was never meant to be a hero. But could become a god. Or an executioner. ps. I will post this story also on RoyalRoad.com

"He didn’t know where the story truly began. Maybe it was the moment the prison doors closed behind him, or when his family’s fate was forever altered. With every step, he uncovered more than met the eye—but the truth always stayed just out of reach. All he knew was this: if he ever wanted answers, he’d have to face whatever lurked beyond the darkness."
