The Exhausted Sovereign of Nocen
By @john1208
Reincarnated into a gothic, monster-infested nightmare, Morvan just wanted a nap. Instead, he wakes up in the middle of a public execution, stripped of his noble titles by a pantheon of hopelessly petty local gods. Annoyed and leaning on a discarded, rotting branch, he carelessly swings it to shoo away a crow - and accidentally severs the cursed mountain looming over the city in two. Instantly, the grimdark world misunderstands his world-weary sarcasm as profound, dark divinity. Horrifying witches and arrogant deities alike are hopelessly seduced by his maxed-out, brooding charisma. While Morvan tries to avoid everyone, his loyal gravedigger friend hides a terrifying secret, and a local peddler becomes wildly rich selling Morvan's used tea leaves as holy artifacts. Meanwhile, a relentless inquisitor falls obsessively in love with him, and the terrifying 'Villain' plunging the realm into eternal night might actually be the only one trying to stop the real threat. Can Morvan survive the relentless, unwanted affection of a gothic world, or will he accidentally conquer the realm while trying to find a decent place to sleep?
