“Do You Believe In Magic?”Cha Jin-sung, a nineteen-year-old web novelist, is stuck in a rut after his popular story, Tales of Heroes and Demons, is abruptly cancelled. Battling with his failures, he receives a cryptic message from an unknown reader, offering him the chance to complete his unfinished story. But in a surreal twist, his response to the email leads him to an extraordinary situation—transmigration into the very world of his novel.In Meltonia, a fantastical world filled with mana and strange powers, Jin-sung now inhabits the body of a seemingly insignificant character, Kaiser Vanguard, who was written into the story out of pity.Jin-sung, now Kaiser Vanguard, uncovers a chilling realization: he must survive the events he wrote into his novel. With his soul merged with Kaiser Vanguard’s, Jin-sung must navigate the hostile landscape of Meltonia, where the stakes of his story have become all too real.As he struggles to survive and understand his transmigration, Jin-sung's main goal becomes clear: to finish the story he once cared for so deeply, now that it’s no longer just fiction—it's his reality. However, whether he'll be able to navigate the dangers of the world he created and reach a satisfying conclusion remains uncertain.This new journey will test his wit, survival instincts, and desire to complete the tale he left behind, all while facing the possibility of an ending far darker than anything he ever intended.

After hatching endless plots and suffering innumerable hardships, the demons of the Demonic Realm finally managed to resurrect the Ancient Demon King.

The demons of the Demonic Realm had hoped that the Ancient Demon King would not only lead them in waging a war against the Heavenly Realm and enable them to lord their superiority over the Immortals, he would also ultimately gain control over the entire realm.

Gradually, however, they discovered that their thoughts were very, very wrong.

Whilst it is true that this Ancient Demon King still retains his aura of superiority and possesses unlimited powers, he…

He seems to be a mental case…

It’s alright even if he changes orders and does things in an incomprehensible way.

But what’s with his habit of muttering under his breath, nagging and conversing with himself the entire day!

Small Orchid: He’s not ill, he’s just despicable (贱jian)…can’t stand to see (见jian) people live a good life.

Dong Fang: I am only unable to endure seeing you live a good life.

Small Orchid: …

*T/N: The Chinese pronunciation for the word “despicable” is the same as the word “see” – thus, the author is trying to show that Small Orchid, while trying to scold Dong Fang, is also careful not to incur his wrath, which is why she tried to imbue another meaning into her sentence after scolding him.
