My Years as a Villain's Shadow Guard

I transmigrated into an absurd ancient world where people could take to the skies with lightness skills, unleash flashy special effects while fighting, and have their sleeves flutter in the wind thanks to a personal wind machine whenever a master made an entrance.

...And from the start, I was a poor little cabbage with no parents, sold to a wealthy family to be trained as a secret guard.

As an aside, this wealthy family was widely recognized throughout the martial world as an evil, powerful force.

I worked diligently every day, but I was also constantly on edge, always feeling that I might get my throat slit the next second for knowing too much or being too weak.

Me: Let me calculate how many days I have left to live.

Also me: Hm? How did I end up in management? There seem to be even more wanted criminals in the martial world now.

Still me: It looks like we're nearing the finale. How am I still alive? I'm not sure. Better keep watching. Wait, what?? Who are you people talking about when you say that terrifying figure who turns the martial world upside down? Me???

Many years later, I looked over the latest martial world intelligence brought in by my subordinates and couldn't help sighing.

After all this time, the special effects people made whenever they fought had gotten more and more extravagant. It felt like it wouldn't even be surprising if someone suddenly began cultivating immortality one day.
