Done with the Regret Trope

A man dies while trash-talking regret stories and transmigrates into a novel as its protagonist, bound to a system that rewards him for his newfound ruthlessness. Awakening to memories of past betrayal, he abandons his simping ways, defeats those who wronged him, and sees through hidden schemes. Embraced by his family's warmth, he rises as a hidden dragon king—building a business empire, crushing provocations, and preparing for even greater challenges ahead.
