- Description from novelbuddy

On a fateful night, William—an ordinary man from Earth—finished a ruined route in his favorite game, Sinners Academy: Love at the End of the World. The next moment, he was eaten alive by the game’s final boss herself, dragged screaming into her world, the world he had ruined.And when his eyes opened again, he was no longer William.He was reborn as Louis Drakeheart, the third-rate villain of that doomed game—grandson of the Dragon King, son of Earth's unparalleled scientist-Esper and a Holy Dragon Goddess, yet still the failure who never awakened his draconic blood. He was known as the Mad Prince, the abandoned heir. The laughingstock destined to die forgotten in the Dimensional Labyrinth.But fate had finally bled him a cruel gift.Death Loop.Every agonizing death sent him back in time with his memories intact and sanity fragmenting piece by piece. One death at a time, he clawed through impossible regressions, devouring knowledge, forging forbidden strength and shattering limits once thought impossible to overcome.No longer would nobles trample him. No longer would horrors beyond the Dimensional Boundary devour his kingdom. No longer would his mother's eternal slumber remain unbroken.Through rivers of his own blood and the crumbling edges of his mind, Louis Drakeheart shall rise again, and again, and again...Ruthless, unhinged, unstoppable.The world that spat on him will kneel... or burn.This is the chronicle of the Spiral of Madness: the ascent of the Heir of Ruin, the Bringer of the End.And of her—the sole shadow who walks every loop beside him, the only soul who remembers every sacrifice.[Time Loop Powers] + [Cultivation + System] + [Villain MC] + [Reincarnated Inside a Game] + [Unique and Original Power System] + [Fast Paced Battles And Suspense] + [Revenge]Also known as “Spiral of Madness: Ascension of the Villainous Dragon Prince”.What to Expect:-A completely villainous main character that grows progressively more ruthless and unhinged, but that always follow his own ambitions and dreams.-A death loop where the main character returns to fixed points in time after each death, retaining all the power he has built up.-Deep world-building and a vibrant, living world that feels alive and immersive.-A unique power system: the Spiral of Madness/Incarnation inspired by Lord of the Mysteries Sequences and Metaphor Refantazio Archetype System.-Dungeon crawling combined with fast-paced progression.-Countless mysteries, multiple worlds to explore, kingdom building (later down the line), and much more.-High stakes and emotional storytelling mixed with great side characters.-Power couple dynamic, “us against a hopeless world” kind of deal.

When the average man is suddenly thrown into a video game as an extra, fated to die, they might first think to hide or run away. But not Luka. A man now inhabiting the body, he simply wants to survive - no matter the cost - even if it means he has to kill the main character!
