Villain's Refund System: The Protagonist's Harem Is Mine

Damien died at his desk after finishing a 2,000-chapter webnovel. When he opens his eyes again, he finds himself inside the very story he created—reborn as the trash villain everyone loves to hate. In the original story, Damien loses everything. His fiancée. His inheritance. His reputation. And finally, his life. All so the golden protagonist, Lucas Arden, can rise to greatness. But Damien knows the story better than anyone. And he has only **72 hours** before the gala where his downfall is supposed to begin. Worse, his final death is already written. **[Fatality: 100%]** Just when his future seems impossible to change, a mysterious Refund System binds itself to him. Every time Damien survives a genuine death flag written into the original story, the reward attached to it is multiplied by ten. An assassination attempt? A fortune. A deadly trap? An even greater reward. A fate that was supposed to kill him? A chance to become stronger than the story ever intended. With his knowledge of the original plot, Damien begins stealing the protagonist's victories, turning assassins, disasters, and deadly “corrections” into opportunities for himself. But there is a problem. The more Damien changes the story, the more his knowledge of the future begins to disappear. And the characters he saves are no longer following the roles they were written to play. They are making their own choices. So is Damien. The story does not like that. Every time the characters stray too far from the original plot, an invisible force pushes them back toward their scripted fate. Now Damien is no longer simply trying to survive. He is fighting the story itself. To escape the ending written for him, Damien must become something far more dangerous than the villain he was meant to be. **Because if the story insists on making him the villain...** **Then he'll rewrite what a villain can become.**
