The Reluctant Villain Who Just Wants to Survive

Thrust into the pages of a modern urban web novel after a fatal car accident, an ordinary man finds himself cast as the story's token villain. His mission is simple: keep his head down, survive until the final chapter, and cash out the massive reward needed to cure his mother back in the real world. There's just one catastrophic problem. Instead of swooning over the original protagonist, the female lead has latched onto him—shadowing his every move like an obsessive stalker. Is she actively trying to speedrun his execution? Pushed to the brink and realizing the plot has completely derailed, he decides to rip up the script. If fate refuses to let him hide, he'll just have to crush the protagonist himself. After all, who wears the protagonist's halo is anyone's guess now.
