[Harem Heaven High School (HHHS)]As the name suggests, it is a dating simulator that gained popularity due to the beautiful heroines with huge breasts and, more importantly, the importance of the player's choices, which influence the endings.Zayden Valtrex, the son of a billionaire philanthropist, was a feared delinquent at Eiko Academy. Standing at 1.95 m tall, with blond hair, full of piercings and earrings, he even scared the teachers.He was none other than the great villain of HHHS, who stole the heroines from the protagonist Subaru Kisaragi.But one day, that very same villain suddenly shows up at school with a completely new appearance. He had removed all his piercings and earrings, changed his hairstyle to be slicked back, and wore a charismatic smile, no longer looking at others with that usual cold stare.Since then, more and more heroines began approaching him of their own will.What no one knows is that Zayden carries a secret memory: he is not only the villain of the game but also someone who once lived in another world... and knows every detail of HHHS. Moreover, he possesses a mysterious system: by spending money on a girl whose affection level is above 50, the return can multiply from 1 to 100 times — and it is not limited to money alone.

Reincarnation? Yes. As the Villian’s first victim? Hell yes.Some novels you keep reading not for the plot, but because of a single character who grabs your heart. For me, that character wasn’t even the protagonist; it was his mother.Noah was just an ordinary university student. Until one day, thanks to a poorly timed act of “masculine bravado” from his friend, he found himself caught in a scuffle with thugs and stabbed. Everything went black. Death came quietly.Then he opened his eyes... but they weren’t his.Noah woke up in another body, in another world and inside the very novel he’d been reading. Worse yet, he hadn’t reincarnated as just any side character, but as Count Leonardo Argenholt, the first person killed by the story’s main villain.Leonardo: noble, handsome, charismatic... and doomed to die very soon.But the most terrifying part? The man destined to kill him is his own son.Now, Noah must do more than just survive. He must navigate the rules, magic, and politics of this world and, most importantly, understand the tragic villain of the story, who also happens to be his child. Because, even if this world appears to follow every fantasy cliché in the book, Noah is no longer just a reader.He’s part of the story now.And maybe... it’s time to rewrite it.
