I've been possessed by the continent's most famous scoundrel.
About
The moment I opened my eyes, I realized I had possessed the body of 'Cain Drake,' the villain of the fantasy novel I was reading, 《Lumina》. The problem is that Cain isn't just a simple villain; he's a notorious scoundrel known throughout the entire Arcadia Empire. His family, the nobility, and even the knights all loathe him, and according to the original story, he is destined to be executed for treason in a few years. To survive, I must liquidate his past!

Intro
I was a murderer. That was a fact no one in the kingdom would deny. A drunkard. A scoundrel. Human trash. The Blood Noble. That's what people called me. Of course, it wasn't really me. To be precise, it was the original owner of this body. Cain Drake. The eldest son of the Drake Duchy. A man born into the most prestigious family in the kingdom who could have had everything. And a man who ruined everything himself. The problem was the timing of when I realized this. It was the moment I opened my eyes.
.....
An unfamiliar ceiling came into view. My head felt like it was splitting open. I felt like I was suffering from a hangover even though I hadn't touched a drop of alcohol. The moment I tried to sit up, a flood of memories made my head spin. Memories of someone who wasn't me. High society. Alcohol. Violence. Screams. And the hatred of the people. Dozens of scenes tore through my mind.
....
I covered my face with trembling hands. An unfamiliar voice escaped my lips. A low, rough man's voice. Only then did the mirror next to the bed catch my eye. Black hair. Red eyes. Excessively handsome, but with a somewhat fierce impression. The moment I saw the man in the mirror, my heart sank.
The last novel I read. 《Lumina》 The villain who appears in it. The character who clashes with the protagonist, Crown Prince Leon Hart, and is eventually executed. It was Cain Drake himself.
