Chapter 1
No, no, no this is a dream it got to be.
I grabbed at my hair, denying reality.
At first, I thought I was just losing my mind because I was so immersed in the game.
Or that I was just dreaming in my sleep.
But no.
After hours of struggling, I finally gave in and admitted that I had become the worst scum in the game. Otto de Scuderia, my main character.
Haha hahaha.
I laughed in disbelief.
How can someone be possessed by a character in a game?
Its not like its a novel.
But reality is often more fictional than fiction.
Hardcore mode I cant believe this is what it was meant.
I stared at the familiar landscape in front of me and gasped.
An empty palace.
It was the Lota Estate, run by Otto de Scuderia.
The same place Id seen so many times over the past three years.
I dont know what the hell is going on but at least I should have been warned.
Just then.
Ding!
A notification popped up in front of me.
[Notification: Synchronization is complete!]
[Notification: Starting game!]
[Notification: Warning!]
[Notification: Remember: If you fail to clear in Hardcore mode, your existence will be erased!]
What to make of this notification window Im not quite sure
Am I really going to die, trapped in a game?
I, Kim Do-jin, who spent three years in real life playing nothing but Otto de Scuderia character?
In the meantime, a status window popped up in front of my eyes, informing me of the current status of the current me, or rather status of Otto de Scuderia.
[Otto de Scuderia]
The young lord of Lota, a rural estate in one of the western fringes of the continent.
He has been living a life of debauchery and decadence since he was heir to the family, and has lost the favor of his people and fellow vassals.
Age: 24
Race: Human

Title: Lord
This is an Otto de Scuderia I know well.
Level : -99
Unique Skill : Debauchery
Class: None
A level of -99!
No matter how much you drink, gamble, and love women, your specialty is Debauchery.
The lack of a class Lets just say, its not worth it. freewёbnoνel.com
What kind of class do you expect a -99 level guy to have?
Resourcefulness 1 Brute Force 3 Politics 9
Leadership 11 Charm 67 Dignity 2
Infamy 44 Honour 0 Intrigue 3
Health 8 Credit 1 Dexterity 37
Luck 1
Every single stat is terrible.
0 Honor and 44 Infamy are one thing.
A luck of 1 means youre just plain unlucky.
The only redeeming stat was that his handsome face gave him a high Charm rating.
Even that was pretty much ruined by his debauched lifestyle at this point.
Even more annoying to the player was the curse on the character.

And that 1% chance of being hit by lightning bolts when moving was a major source of player anger.
Ive been playing this character for the past three years and have had all sorts of ridiculous deaths.
Ive been playing this character for the past three years and have encountered all sorts of crazy deaths.
Its safe to say that Ive experienced almost every possible way a human could die.
As proof, here we go..
Walk!
Thud!
I walked two steps, but the slippery floor stopped me in my tracks.
Ouch!
I winced in pain and barely pulled myself up.
It must not have been a dream, because the pain was vivid.
No, it was more than that.
Damn It, I almost died.
Its a good thing I turned around just in time to avoid hitting my head on the floor, or else I would have.
Chills! I got goosebumps.
Yelp.
Since I fell to the side, my nose is bleeding.
It was Otto de Scuderia who was the protagonist of the proverbial nose-breaking fall.
Of course, its more likely that I would have died from a crushed skull.
But to his relief, he got up.
Now, wait a minute The reason most people die in the early game.
A thought flashed through my mind.
Oh, hell no!
I instinctively threw myself at it.
Boom!
At the same time, a giant chandelier came crashing down and hit where I was.
I almost died twice in a matter of seconds.
