Summary
Kim Dokja has nothing against villains. If anything, he thinks they're underrated, considering how important they are to the story. A good villain moves the plot forward, and half of the time he thinks the protagonist should be sending them a thank-you card instead.
So when he woke up and found himself shoved into an unfinished novel he had previously read in his idle time, cast as the villain no less, he took the job seriously, very much so. His role was as simple as dragging the protagonist to the position he deserved and handing him the overdue happy ending.
Getting side-eyed by everyone in the room was already a laughably familiar territory. Working himself into the ground for someone else's story was basically just Tuesday, if his last life was anything to go by. And watching the protagonist climb higher and shine brighter while he sinks a little further into the shadow of his own undoing? Hella, satisfying. Obviously. Right?
…They say being a parent is a thankless job, then what of a villain?
