Reborn as the Villain's Son

Jae-won was an ordinary man who died in a car accident and woke up as Damien Ashcroft — the five-year-old son of Lord Varkhan Ashcroft, the ultimate villain of the fantasy world Erathis. In the original story, the hero storms Castle Ashcroft when Damien is twenty, kills Lord Varkhan, and executes Damien as a 'spawn of evil' in front of cheering crowds. Jae-won has fifteen years to change his fate. He can't run — the Ashcroft bloodline is cursed to remain within the domain. He can't betray his father — the blood oath would kill him. He can't join the hero — the hero kills all Ashcrofts on sight. His only option: become so powerful that when the hero comes, the 'villain's son' can rewrite the story entirely. But growing up in a villain's castle means learning villain's magic, fighting villain's wars, and slowly discovering that his father might not be the monster the world believes. Expect pulse-pounding combat, high-stakes confrontations, and characters pushed to their physical and mental limits. The action sequences are detailed and visceral, with each battle raising the tension.
