System Rewrite: I Swapped Places With SSS Rank Hero
GladiousX
Prince Malik was one step away from his ultimate ambition. He had poisoned the politics of his kingdom, secured the loyalty of the army, and was seconds away from overthrowing his brother to seize the throne. He was a master schemer, a ruthless tyrant in the making, and he was finally going to win.
But the moment he opened the doors to the Throne Room, he didn't find his crown. He found a battlefield.
Transmigrated into the final battle of another world, Malik wakes up in the body of "Nebras"—the legendary, Awaited Hero destined to save the world from the tyranny of the Supreme Lord.
There’s just one problem: Malik is no hero. He is an anti-hero who believes the weak should be ruled by iron and fire. He got killed brutally as he doesn't even know how to use the hero's powers, and to face the greatest villain in such a condition! Death is destined.
Now, trapped in a future where the "Hero" Nebras has been dead for a century, Malik is resurrected by a desperate resistance. He is surrounded by the last descendants of "Nebras" and his comrads, a beautiful princess who calls him "Grandfather," and a suspicious Vizier who watches his every move.
Worse yet, the Supreme Lord—an entity so terrifying that he killed him before—is still ruling the world.
Forced to play the role of the messiah to survive, Malik must use his ruthless cunning and manipulative nature to lead a rebellion he doesn't believe in. But can another tyrant save the world? Or will he end up becoming a greater tyrant than the one he was summoned to destroy?
"I don't care about your freedom. I just want to survive and find a way back to my throne. But if I have to conquer this world to do it... so be it."
