A modern young man is abducted by a System at his wedding and becomes a puppet emperor in another world. After forty years of ruthless political maneuvering, he unifies the Dragon Kingdom with nothing but a mortal's body and ascends to the rank of Immortal Emperor, all for the reunion the System promised him. But deep in the sea of clouds of the immortal realm, he finds a cruel truth: his wife perished long ago in a temporal storm. Eternal life becomes the cruelest of curses. He is the only one in the universe who still remembers her, keeping watch over a solitary, dying lamp of memory through the endless night of the stars. Even death is now beyond his reach.
