As the game "Throne of the Silent Dead" is about to shut down, veteran office worker and whale spender Lin Qi logs in to say one last goodbye. But the instant the countdown hits zero, he discovers that he has transmigrated into the max-level character he spent ten years building: "Nefertaris," the supreme ruler of the Silent Tomb and elven arcane monarch.
He inherits the ultimate villain's fearsome reputation and power, but has a miserable synchronization rate of just 15%. Beneath the throne are twelve terrifying guardians, each of whom has lived for over a thousand years; beyond it lies a strange, real, and cruel world. To avoid being crushed by his own subordinates or his enemies the moment they see through him, he has no choice but to put on a cold mask and play the all-knowing, all-powerful ruler in public, while privately wailing that he has become an "otherworldly 007 office drone."
Thus begins his thrilling double life. By day, under the alias "Momo," he disguises himself as a rookie adventurer and starts with the lowest-ranked F-class quests, struggling to survive the power struggles of the human empire. By night, he sits high upon the throne and listens as his guardians imagine grand plans of conquest. Though he is falling apart inside, all he can do is coolly utter a single word: "Approved."
When the guardians confirm that this world's combat power is low and enthusiastically present him with a blueprint for founding a nation, the "Eternal Silence: Endtime Magic Kingdom," Nefertaris is in despair: "I just want to go home! How did I go from office drone to Demon King, stuck managing a monster corporation whose KPI is world domination?!"
This otherworldly epic of disguises, survival, and snark begins here.
