What are the basic qualities of a villain? Transmigrating into the body of a villainous lord destined to be killed by the hero, inheriting all the family's underground businesses: slave trade, potion smuggling, cult gatherings, forbidden rituals… In a dark, insane, twisted magical world, the only way to survive is to become one with it all…?

Transmigrating to a fantasy world and becoming a pirate leader, Li Li was deeply troubled. Fortunately, he possessed the building upgrade system common in strategy games. When he established an academy in his hideout and upgraded [Academy Level 0] to [Academy Max], the alchemical cannons, researched and mass-produced by the academy's alchemists, easily shattered the knights' dreams of chivalry, forged over decades of trials and tribulations. Li Li uttered that famous quote with a wry smile. "My lord, times have changed!" As various kingdoms began to imitate the alchemical cannons and form alchemical armies, he upgraded [Barracks Level 0] to [Barracks Max]. The high-level pirate knights trained in batches at the barracks easily dismantled the alchemical artillery positions established by various kingdoms.

[Adventure][D&D + Minor OCR Misconceptions][Physics-Based][Violent Priest] Transmigrating to Faerûn, Leon became a priest of the Temple of War. Bad news: He has a Perception of 9 and knows no divine spells. Good news: He has Strength of 16, and receives extra rewards for solving problems physically. From then on, he embarked on a maverick path of "physical missionary work." Prayer useless? Then he'll use his fists to silence the heretics. Holy Light dim?
