Victor never expected to wake up inside the world of a story he already knew.

Worse, he didn’t transmigrate into the protagonist.

He became Victor Alves, the arrogant only son of Duke Alves, a powerful noble heir studying at Starlight Royal Academy and, more importantly, one of the villains destined to become a stepping stone for the original protagonist, Ryan Carter.

Victor knows how this story is supposed to end.

Ryan will rise.

The geniuses surrounding him will become monsters who shake the continent.

The Alves family will collapse.

And within a year, Victor himself will die.

Fortunately, the moment Victor accepts his new reality, he awakens the Investment System.

The system allows him to see the hidden potential, needs, talents, and possible futures of those around him. By investing gold, equipment, potions, skills, bloodlines, cultivation resources, and even opportunities into suitable targets, Victor can change their destinies and receive multiplied returns.

A struggling swordsman with the potential to become a legendary Sword Saint?

Invest.

An overlooked servant hiding a terrifying bloodline?

Invest.

A future powerhouse destined to die before ever realizing her potential?

Invest.

While the empire’s nobles compete for geniuses who have already proven themselves, Victor quietly gathers those the world has ignored and turns them into monsters.

And every time his followers grow stronger, Victor’s rewards become even more absurd.

By the time the great families realize that the insignificant people surrounding Victor have become generals, Sword Saints, assassins, and legendary mages, it is already too late.

Because Victor was never simply raising subordinates....He was building an empire of his own.

"The Alves family has confirmed the Moonlight Sacred Spring slot we discussed. The facility can be prepared as soon as we settle your travel arrangements."


Cecilia nodded, her gaze falling on the document Victor placed before her.


She had already given him the Inferno Prison Secret Realm Entry Token as cover for securing the Spring slot, so the question now was not whether he would help, but how they would carry out the next stage without attracting attention.


It not only detailed the arrangements for using the Moonlight Sacred Spring but also included precautions to observe during treatment and several basic examinations that might be necessary.


She carefully examined it for a while before slowly raising her head.


"Will the family's healers have access to the results from our first treatment?"


"Only what they need for the preliminary examinations."
