I Mean, I Am the Villain, But...

Noel dies and wakes up as a minor villain inside a novel.

Worse, his character is nothing more than an extra whose role is to push Chase—the future main villain—into darkness.

There is just one problem: the child he is supposed to torment already looks half-dead.

Unable to bring himself to truly abuse him, Noel decides to exploit the System's loopholes. He acts like a villain while secretly feeding, protecting, and taking care of the unfortunate future antagonist.

Somehow, he manages to complete his mission.

When the System grants him a wish, Noel asks for only one thing: a life where he never has to work and never has to worry about money.

Then he opens his eyes again.

Three years have passed, Chase has grown into a striking adult, and he welcomes Noel with a brilliant smile.

“Welcome back, Noel. I've become the richest and most perfect bride you could ever want.”

Apparently, something has gone very wrong with Noel's wish.
