[#WPC320 #Villain_Theme Winner]

[Read only if you want a great plot, sweet romance, and a perfect harem without any forced development.]

[This novel is not where MC rules the plot and grows alone. The story belongs to mc and his spicy harem (girls).]

[Unique Yandere Girl, Nyla. You might love her personality, and find her very special.]

[Story would make sense as it progresses. I have avoided info dump and explained in a natural way to answer each question through the characters.]
