Orphaned, overworked, and alone, John Avery found purpose in the pages of a webnovel.

He was weak—so he admired the hero’s strength.

He was poor—so he envied the hero’s wealth.

He was lonely—so he cherished the hero’s bonds.

He lived through fiction… until fiction became his life.

When John dies a quiet, forgotten death at his desk, he expects nothing.

But fate has other plans.

He opens his eyes—not in heaven, not in hell, but in the very world of the novel that once saved him.

Reborn as Cassian Gray, noble heir to a powerful house and blessed with a mysterious Reader’s System, he’s been given the impossible:

A second life in a world he knows better than anyone else.

Now armed with knowledge, magic, and ambition, John refuses to live as a background character again. This time, he’ll rise. This time, he’ll write his own ending.

But as time passes, anomalies stir, and secrets unravel…

Is it really as simple as a reincarnation in the world of the novel?

Though its powers were drained, it still retained its sharpness and near indestructible form.


Instantly, a flow of Qi left Li Wei's body and entered the sword through his palm. A light gray energy faintly flowing on the edge, soon followed by a faint blue energy.


That's right, Li Wei, had two types of Qi, oke belonging to his [Realm] and the other belonging to the Jade-Heart Qi Manual, a neutral gray Qi and a freezing blue Qi.
