Zaiden Archman. He’s the main character in my novel called ‘Awakener’s Dead Harem’. As an author, I love it when my main character suffers and is depressed. He’s the main character that I took pride in. With my novel about to end, I pushed myself to write the last volume. However, what I never expected was that it would be the end of me too. When I opened my eyes again, I had become Vincent Dihart, an Extra in my novel, who is only mentioned a few times in the novel. I then found out a sad truth about my Main Character that I took pride in. He has changed. He’s not the Main Character that I made. He’s a Reincarnator. Someone has replaced my Main Character. And that someone has read my novel. I feel empty and betrayed. As an Extra, I will not be able to save this world from danger. Only the Main Character is the one who can save this world. But, he will also not be able to do it without being depressed. So the answer is clear. “I will make him suffer.” This is my story about living as an Extra. And once in a while, messing with the Reincarnator to make him suffer. Disclaimer: The Cover is Commissioned from @just_dit Warning: The MC is not some edgy villain.

Everyone would enter the circle of reincarnation upon their deaths, eventually forgetting their own memories before starting a new life. It was their libration. Alastor knew that, and when he was faced with either being caught and tortured or jumping down, he decided the latter. As much as this life meant for him, Alastor knew he wouldn't be missing much. His potential was too great to waste on this life. However, something went wrong. Once Alastor opened his eyes again, he had to arch his brow in disbelief, “What the heck is the meaning of this?” A floating shadow formed a holographic screen in front of him, with clear words written there on it, [Welcome, Player Alastor!

[Reifer Inhalt] Es war nicht Islindas Plan, einen verletzten Fae im Wald zu retten, und schlimmer noch, er entpuppt sich als königliche Person, Prinz Valerie vom Sommerhof, Erbe und Kronprinz des Throns von Astaria. Aber die Menschen waren misstrauisch gegenüber diesen jenseitigen Kreaturen, während die Fae auf die Menschen herabblickten und sie als minderwertige Wesen betrachteten. Zwischen Islinda und dem Prinzen lagen Welten, aber das hielt sie nicht davon ab, sich ineinander zu verlieben. Leider konnte Prinz Valerie nicht ewig in der Menschenwelt bleiben und musste in sein Reich zurückkehren, mit dem Versprechen, zu ihr zurückzukommen. Und sie glaubte ihm. Doch dann kommt stattdessen der andere. Der dunkle, grüblerische, rücksichtslose und doch gefährlich gut aussehende Prinz Aldric wird von allen gefürchtet. Selbst als wilder Krieger und Sohn des Königs von Astaria wird Aldric sein Recht auf den Thron verweigert und er ist verflucht, wegen seines dunklen Erbes niemals seinen Platz einzunehmen. Von innen heraus verdreht und ohne Zuneigung, tut Prinz Aldric das, was er am besten kann: Unheil stiften. Er hat Islinda gefangen genommen - die Frau, die die Aufmerksamkeit seines Bruders auf sich gezogen hat. Er stahl sie aus ihrer Heimat für seine grausamen Zwecke. Wenn er schon nicht den Thron haben konnte, so konnte er doch wenigstens mit der Geliebten seines Bruders spielen. Seine neue Beute. Islinda hasste ihn. Sie hasste ihn dafür, dass er ihr alles wegnahm, was sie mit dem Sommerprinzen hätte haben können. Er ist der Schurke. Jetzt wurde sie in die schmutzige Politik am Hofe von Astaria hineingezogen, ganz zu schweigen davon, dass sie die kalten Spiele des Prinzen überlebte. Aber alle Hoffnung ist noch nicht verloren, denn der grausame Prinz kann sie verführen, so viel er will, aber das, was er sich am meisten wünscht, wird er nie bekommen. Geliebt zu werden. Er würde niemals ihr Herz bekommen! Oder könnte er das? ________ "Was kannst du mir bieten, kleiner Mensch?", grinste er langsam und grausam. Sie würde so ein wunderbares Spielzeug abgeben. "Bitte", flehte sie ihn an, Tränen sammelten sich in ihren Augen, "lass mich einfach gehen." "Gut", sagte er achselzuckend, als wäre es eine einfache Bitte, "Du kannst gehen." "W-was?" Sie krächzte und konnte es kaum glauben. "Kleiner Mensch, du wirst schnell merken, dass ich meine Meinung ändere." Diese Worte klangen barmherzig, doch sie konnte die Bedrohung dahinter spüren. Aber meinte er das wirklich? Islinda wartete nicht ab, um das herauszufinden, sondern setzte zum Sprint an. Wenn es auch nur die geringste Chance gab, dass er seine Meinung änderte, dann würde sie sie nutzen. Sie würde die Hoffnung noch nicht aufgeben. Sie wusste nicht, warum, aber Islinda warf nach einer Weile einen Blick über die Schulter, und das Blut wich aus ihrem Gesicht, als sie sah, was ihr bevorstand. Oh nein, sie hatte gerade einen schrecklichen Fehler gemacht. Das war niemals Freiheit. Es war eine Jagd. Und sie wurde einfach zur Beute. _________ Hinweis: Dies ist ein düsteres Fantasy-Buch und der männliche Hauptdarsteller ist ein Bösewicht, also erwarten Sie keine fluffige Romanze. Was könnt ihr erwarten? Tod, Blut, starke sexuelle Spannung und explizite Szenen. Außerdem ist es kein umgekehrter Harem. Geschenk Zauberschloss = 5 Bonuskapitel! Komm, lass uns eine wilde Jagd machen!

And inflicted a terrible balance upon the plains and brought chaos to Chiji. From this, opposition rises and plots. And so, the people forget the good deeds of a few power wielders.

"I'm grateful for sending me there, Lord husband, but please don't miss sending my allowance and I promise I will not show up and bother you," said Xinyi and bowed piously. "The heck, this woman is totally shameless." Xinyi watched Lei Ming's back as he walked away. As he was out of earshot, she gave a careless smile and rested her palms on her waist. "This is totally unexpected. What a farce of a marriage. So what? I don't care too..." she said as she suddenly jumped and swirled around in glee. But… an unexpected encounter under the moonlight changed everything. Most of all, when he discovered he was meant to protect his wife. ----- o ----- TAKE NOTE: 1.)

Thrown into a new world, Asher finds himself becoming a wanted and unwittingly evil Necromancer. Not the career choice he'd had in mind when he began. Hunger plagues him, as he walks a path opposed to most, stepping on the fragile toes of the Synagogue and their Goddess, the Cult and even the powers he barters with. Not that any of this will matter once he's finished. Cover Art credit - @mufs(instagram) https://discord.gg/YbxrtrU A bit you might want to know about the pace; Asher is a very unlucky protagonist. So even ten chapters in he will still struggle greatly to survive. The tag says overpowered protagonist and that is true, it won't happen for a bit though, he still has to suffer a bit while getting stronger, a fantasy world isn't all it's cracked up to be after all. A bit you might want to know about what you'll be reading. The type of Necromancy practiced in Hungry Necromancer is a rather stable and balanced type of Necromancy, you'll eventually read up to parts where things are not so easily fixed with a horde of zombies and a very creepy ritual needs to be employed. As of chapter 80 things truly begin to get dire and desperate as Asher is faced with the consequences of his actions, bad deal making and even close approaching death and madness. And it ought to be so for a fiendish Warlock practicing such a dark magical art as Necromancy.4.66
