Terminally Ill Genius Dark Knight / 시한부 천재 암흑기사 / The Terminally Ill Genius Dark Knight / 시한부 천재가 살아남는 법 / The Terminally Ill Genius Who Survives

Imagine waking up to your own expiration date. For Chan, life was nothing but a slow fade to black—until he decided to escape his terminal reality by diving headfirst into the brutal, familiar world of his favorite RPG. But there is a catch. He wakes up not as a hero, but as Nox, a villainous character destined for a swift and bloody end. Plagued by the same terminal illness that defined his real life, he is now trapped in a body meant to die. But this time, he is not just watching the cutscenes; he is rewriting them. With a genius intellect and the cold, calculated grit of a man who has nothing left to lose, Nox begins his desperate climb to survive. Forget the script—this dark knight is here to tear down the game's predetermined ending and force the world to acknowledge his existence. Every breath is a struggle, every battle could be his last, but he is going to fight with everything he has until the very final second. If he is going down, he is taking the world’s expectations with him.
