What does it feel like to find yourself inside the novel of an author you hated? How will you survive in a world that's filled with cliché? Well, something similar happened here.

Once there was an unpopular fantasy novel author. His life was pretty messed up—no, he made it messed up. And remember I said messed up, not sad.

Due to certain reasons, he ended up never having the life that an average teenage boy should have.

But soon he was freed from that life as he died due to a lovey-dovey couple. He was freed but he had regrets…after all, he didn’t make his life that way because he wanted to.

The things he did were the result of his condition and impulses.

It seems luck was on his side at that moment, seconds after he closed his eyes and died, those eyes opened again but this time they were gazing at a world different from his old one.

He got a second chance! Now he will live a new life, a life he wanted to live! This time he can live, grow old, and then die in a “normal” way! The way things should have happened in his former life.

Though it turns out he also had a good amount of bad luck on his side as well.

Later he found out that the world he reincarnated in was the same as the novel of an author he hated the most. The only person he never wanted to talk to again…he was reincarnated inside that very person’s novel.

This is his story! The story of the man who was known by the name “Zero” in his second life. The story of how he survived without plot armor in a world filled with cliché situations, only in the favor of the MC of that novel.

This is, Author’s Reincarnation in a Fantasy Setting!!

Wen Ye, the lead dancer idol of a well-known boy group in Huaguo, he loves to be provocative by nature and often flaunts his eight-pack abs on stage.

However, his private identity is the young master of a certain ancient martial arts family who is gifted in martial arts and caused headaches for the elders of the family.

One day, he accidentally entered an Abo novel that would be 404, and became a cannon fodder Alpha in the original book.

The original owner summoned him at the cost of his soul, and he was put on the shackles to protect the other’s parents and prevent the collapse of the empire.
Facing the black-bellied villain of the original book who fell to the ground in a flash, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Empire, the young master silently swallowed the blood he wanted to vomit.

too weak! Could it be that the villain in the original book relies on IQ instead of force?
no! Must practice more!
While practicing the opponent to death, he teased the opponent desperately.
The young master, who follows the policy of equal exposure to rain and dew, watched the Alpha with long legs and hips in the military academy start a happy vacation life.
Unexpectedly, one day, the aftermath of the secondary differentiation of His Highness the Crown Prince broke out. Facing His Highness the Crown Prince with hungry wolf eyes and ghostly demeanor, the young master who was pinned against the wall had only one sentence in his mind:
After a long time, I really have to pay it back…

small theater:
1. Xu Shen saw Wen Ye’s flirtatiousness on the first day, and His Royal Highness crushed the cup in his hand.
Xu Shen saw Wen Ye being provocative the next day, and His Highness the Crown Prince pinched the edge of the table.
On the third day, Wen Ye was about to start flirting, but was directly carried away by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who couldn’t bear it.
2. Wen Ye: Your Majesty, stop biting my neck! It cannot be marked permanently!
His Royal Highness (with a toothy grin): Knot and bite a few more times, so everyone will understand who you belong to.
Wen Ye: Knot?
His Royal Highness: Oh, so you don’t understand? Come, I will teach you slowly.
Bystander: We now suspect that you are driving illegally!
