“The masterminds are cooler than heroes,” I mutter as I stare at the chess pieces before me. It is easier to be the one who sits in the shadows and moves the pieces, likewise deciding the flow of the game.Heroes will foolishly sacrifice their lives for the good cause and villains will sacrifice the world for their own gain, but masterminds will use both the heroes and villains to their own benefit.Why, you ask? Well, that's because I've lost my life once while trying to be a hero so, I don't want that anymore. I'd rather be a mastermind who molds the world as per my convenience and live peacefully. Because, why not?***[Defender of Divine Glory says you are the hope of this world.]What?[Goddess of Wisdom believes that you will be the one to save the world.]Wait, what?![Propose the Grand Duke the idea of a fake marriage.]And, why would I do that?![Stop the assassination of Prince Eric.]Why would I save him?![The candidates for the throne are:... Who will you choose?]Ah! I give up...It seems like a curse that anyone who wishes for a slacker life in Isekai will have to go through the most troublesome things.In my past life, I died because of one rookie mistake but after being transmigrated in the world of fantasy I've gotten an opportunity to start afresh, but unlike the protagonists who look for their love and glory, I'd rather make money and live a life of a slacker.I have magic, I have power and I have money, what else do I need?Well, that was the plan but this damn system is getting on my nerves. I mean who in their sane mind would want to mess with the complicated royal family and political affairs? But that's not all though.I've also become the saviour of this world. Things just can't be anymore worse!Besides, the penalty of failing this quest is...[Failure: Destruction of the World.]It seems like if I screw up in selecting the right person then the destruction that is going to befall the world won't be stopped.If I speak of my reward then it's this vague thing.[Reward: Fulfillment of any wish.]“If that's the case then, I'd rather choose the person who would be the best fit for the throne.”And that's how I decided that I would become the Kingmaker.

[Ding! Sign-in System Installed!][Ding! 10x Rewards System Installed!][Ding! Mythical-Rank Ice Mana Circulation Technique Acquired!][Ding! Legendary-Rank Blazing Sun Holy Physique Acquired!]He spent all his life caged in a hospital because he was born with something special. Within those thick walls of concrete, he yearned for freedom and love, but he only found freedom in his death.But that wasn't the end.Reborn as Aegon Valeria Augustus, he awakened not one, but two systems.A Sign-In System that rewards him depending on where he is.A 10x Rewards System that multiplies whatever he gains as rewards.One day it’s mythical techniques, the next it’s… bricks. But whether it’s legendary physiques or useless sandals, Aegon takes it all with a grin.Why?He finally had the freedom and love he had always wanted, and along with that came the desire to explore this fantasy world and its culture.But there were a lot of things he missed from Earth, so the system helped him with that too.[Ding!

Or even help it become something better?”Aegon wasn’t worried about his strength, because his systems were already making him invincible.He only wanted to enjoy the freedom his new life gave him and protect the love he had never experienced before....What to expectVery Slice of Life. Yes, it’s mostly focused on SoL, so if you want tension-filled battles, this isn’t the novel for you.Low stakes.Some drama.Good fights, but low stakes and fun in tone.Light-hearted story.Modern professions introduced in another world.Comedy mixed with character development (which means you need to give some time for MC to develop too before calling out names for him.)Slow paced
