MTL - The Right Way to Rise Uchiha - Chapter 498 end

After getting shot, Lucas, a serial killer, reincarnated into the novel world as a tragic villain with the same name, Lucas Ciffer.

Lucas Ciffer was supposed to be the Holy Kingdom's successor to the throne, but his demonic appearance and the powers he possessed terrified the entire kingdom. A white-haired boy with red eyes and pale skin, together with his dark powers, got persecuted and exiled by his own family. Not to mention that in the future he was destined to die by the hand of the hero.

Lucas fell from holiness, and, with the serial killer's bloodlust and knowledge of the future, he decided to prove the world right.

Yes. I could be a villain; no, in fact, I WILL BE THE VILLAIN.

A World of Warcraft hunter player inexplicably entered the world of Azeroth in his sleep. Turned into a high elf ranger, and at the same time inherited the title of Baron Cheap Daddy (Baron Blood Eagle) who died.

But the tragic original history that Blizzard bestowed upon the blood elves made his hair stand on end. He doesn’t want to become a heartbroken person and doesn’t want to die, so he can only struggle desperately to change the original history.
