Each time he transmigrates, he gets a different cheat code from each world he draws. Each time he transmigrates, he becomes a victim of injustice. The first two worlds are both ancient eras. In the first world, his cheat code is a sign-in reward, transmigrating into a family that favors daughters over sons. He plays the victim in front of the neighbors, slowly escaping his family's clutches. Eventually, all the family members who harmed him die. He goes to a military academy and becomes a military doctor. In the second world, he draws cards and gets a "Bursting Tire Card," a "Bad Luck Card," and a "Copy Card." The original owner of this world was framed by his stepson and cheated on. His family kept it a secret, framing him for a woman pregnant with his stepson's child. The protagonist happened to be in the original world and had the woman in his father's room, revealing their relationship beforehand. He retrieves his mother's dowry, sells the house, and gets his father to sign off on his retirement. In this world, the protagonist becomes an engineer. In each of his current stories, the bad guys slowly get their comeuppance. It's a pretty good story!
