Owen Drayke wakes up in the body of Gram Yuval—the infamous rival and NTR villain from the high fantasy novel Hero’s Last Crusade. A man fated to seduce the protagonist’s lovers, derail the hero’s journey, and die hated by all.

But Owen wants nothing to do with any of it.

He’s not here to steal girls, sabotage friendships, or trigger flags he doesn’t understand. All he wants is to survive this chaotic world, avoid every heroine like the plague, and somehow—somehow—find a way back to Earth.

Unfortunately, fate, desire, and a dangerously attractive cast of heroines seem to have other plans.
To escape the twisted story he’s trapped in, Owen will have to grow strong, dodge every seduction route, and forge his own path in a world that was never meant to let him go.

Thanks so much for checking out this story. This is something I've been wanting to try for a while—a fun, wild twist on some of the more infamous tropes out there. It's my first time handling a character like this and diving into the NTR/rival villain setup, so I'm treating this as an experimental ride… one I hope you'll enjoy as much as I'm enjoying writing it.


This story is mostly for fun, with plenty of chaos, comedy, action, and the occasional emotional gut punch. If you're into unpredictable turns, messy romance, and worlds that don't play fair, you're in the right place.


While I'm aiming to keep things light-hearted and trope-aware, I also plan to explore some serious and meaningful moments when the time feels right—so if you're here for both the fun and the feels, I've got you covered.


I'm still learning, still growing, and this is only my second real project—so thank you for giving it a shot. I'll do my best to make it worth your time.
