The "Hero" bears a sacred mission, slays the "Evil Dragon," and devotes every ounce of his courage to his beliefs, only to be betrayed by those very beliefs and fall forever into an endless hell.
If you are chosen by the System, please save him. According to its calculations, you will be his only hope.
World 1
A half-dark, half-decent, scheming wolfdog general x a lofty princess who accepts kindness but not force
Five years ago, the princess was forced to travel to a foreign land to marry for political reasons. Her intended was an old king three times her age.
The young general defied all opposition, taking only a company of trusted soldiers on an overnight raid straight to the enemy capital.
Yet after the battle, the general did not rise to prominence and achieve fame. Instead, from then on, he vanished without a trace from the halls of power.
Some said he had retired to the countryside; others said he had died in a foreign land. Rumors abounded.
Then one day, the princess opened the door of the cell where the young general was imprisoned.
During all those days and nights locked in that secret chamber, I regretted pledging my loyalty to such a filthy ruler. That is, until I saw you.
World 2
A completely corrupted, foul-mouthed-yet-softhearted Evil Dragon x an arrogant princess hailed as the Empire's Rose
A once-in-a-century genius swordsman on the continent, he was born destined to bear the Hero's mission: slay the Evil Dragon and drive out the darkness.
He was the one destined to bring light to the continent.
Yet somewhere no one knew of, the Hero was trapped in eternal darkness, shackled, while the intricate patterns of a backlash curse covered his body beneath his holy robes.
His once-clear, emerald-green eyes had merged with the darkness, filled with wicked malice.
The dragon slayer eventually becomes the dragon.
In my first decade, I promised the gods that whoever saved me would have my loyalty for thirty years. In my second decade, I prayed to the gods that if anyone would help me escape, I would gladly be their servant. In my third decade, I seized the power of the gods and swore in my heart that if anyone came here, I would kill them.
So, are you willing to unlock the chains around me, little princess?
World 3
An ex with supernatural powers who was nearly dissected x a genius young researcher with little sense of morality
The apocalypse has come, and the whole world has placed its hopes in the research institute, praying it will develop a zombie vaccine to save humanity as soon as possible.
Everyone knows that Sang Wan, the institute's lead researcher, put righteousness above family and sent her own ex-boyfriend to the operating table, all to improve the chances of developing a vaccine against the undead.
But Sang Wan never imagined that, with no progress in their research, the institute would become so deranged as to want to dismember her ex-boyfriend.
With no other choice, Sang Wan fled with the ex-boyfriend who had nearly been dissected.
Without any resources to support them, she thought they would eventually become sustenance for the apocalypse, and spent every day on edge.
Until she saw with her own eyes the pathetic little man she had imagined, crushing a zombie's skull with his bare hands.
Sang Wan fell into deep thought.
I don't know what I used to think, but now all I want is to be with you, forever.

tips:
Rescue, being rescued, and rescuing again
An episodic story. The male lead is beautiful, powerful, and tragic, and has the Hero's script. He's a hopeless romantic through and through.
The female lead is usually a princess (yes, I'm a sucker for it. Hero x princess is my thing)
A story of redemption. The male lead may suffer, but this is a sweet romance.
Theme: You once saved me from danger, and I can risk everything for you in return
