Humanity is now a reality show for the cosmos. While other nations are granted teams of elite special forces and survival experts, the state of Utah is left with a single representative: Gilbert Wilton. Gilbert is a 25-year-old shut-in, a master of solo-queue gaming and a connoisseur of "Sacred Texts" (Manga and Anime). He has no survival skills, his cardio is non-existent, and he accidentally arrived at the first trial with his pants around his ankles. Now, the entire population of Utah is forced to watch his every move through a live, state-wide chat feed. They want him dead. They want a refund. They want a hero. But Gilbert has a Balance Adjustment. With the Rank EX Skill: Fiction Manifestation, Gilbert can bring the characters of his favorite stories into the real world. His first summon? Malenia, Blade of Miquella. There’s just one problem: The summons aren't puppets. They have their own will, their own pride, and an absolute disgust for their "Master." Can Gilbert survive the cosmic gauntlet when his own protector wants to put him in the dirt, and his "audience" is rooting for his elimination? [Welcome to the Show.

Let's be honest. You've read this story before. Pathetic loser gets transmigrated, finds a magical system, gets into a magical academy, and suddenly every girl in a ten-mile radius wants to jump his bones. It’s trash. I should know; I died choking on my own rage while reading it. Yeah, I got that story. Except I'm not some clueless kid. I was a Yakuza enforcer. And the body I got stuck with? It belongs to the fattest, laziest, most perverted side-character I’ve ever met. My new name is Satori, and my life is a cosmic joke. My "cheat" is the [Scumbag System]. It doesn't reward heroism or kindness. It rewards manipulation, corruption, and causing the kind of chaos that makes for a damn good show. And if I fail? The penalties are... creative. And excruciatingly painful. First on the System's hit list: my gorgeous, powerful, and utterly disgusted stepsister, Natalia. The mission: seduce her, corrupt her, and make her mine.

Welcome to the hunt. === ADDITIONAL Tags: No Yuri, No Ntr, Netori, Gates, Dungeons, Yandere, Tsundere, Gacha, comedy
