The Emperor Who Couldn't Fail

Corporate slave Leon becomes emperor of the Qian Dynasty, bound to a Kingdom Ruination System. If the kingdom is destroyed, he can retire. To go home, he tries self-sabotage: letting a corrupt official bankrupt the Treasury, making elite troops farm, humiliating envoys. Officials misinterpret his moves as divine strategies, pushing the Qian Dynasty to a galactic-level civilization. Unable to fail, he is forced to take the throne as ruler of the universe.
