The Transmigrated NPC Will Never Be A Hero [BL]

He was never meant to be part of the story. But now he’s the only thing the Hero wants. Han Tae-min was just a shut-in gamer, barely scraping by as a streamer. After becoming the first to beat Kingdom Clash, he died in an accident—and woke up inside the very game he’d completed. As an NPC. One who dies in the opening scene. Armed with knowledge of the game’s events, Tae-min dodges death and begins subtly helping the Hero behind the scenes. With his future sight, he guides the Hero to victory—stealing a few quest rewards and advantages for himself along the way. A little survival tax. No one’s supposed to notice. But when the final boss falls and the story ends… Tae-min’s foresight disappears. Now stripped of his usefulness, the once-idolized "Mystery Helper" becomes a public disgrace. The Hero’s party turns on him. The people scorn him. The title he earned is meaningless without the power to uphold it. Tae-min tries to fade into obscurity. But the Hero won’t let him. Lucien, the beloved Hero of the realm, was never the noble savior he pretended to be. Beneath the shining armor and soft words lies obsession—twisted, possessive, and absolute. And now that Tae-min can’t run, Lucien will never let him go. Trapped in the palace with a Hero who only grows more unhinged, Tae-min must navigate court politics, suffocating affection, and a love that looks a lot more like captivity.
