In The Mind Of An Npc

Once branded as “trash,” Liam Grey was the live-in son-in-law everyone mocked — penniless, humiliated, and despised by the very family he served. His powerful wife’s relatives treated him like dirt, and even she seemed ashamed of his existence. But on the night of his greatest humiliation, when the world laughed at his downfall, a mysterious voice echoed in his mind: > “System Activated — Host recognized: The Trash Son-in-Law.” From that moment, everything changed. Each mission completed made him stronger. Each upgrade brought new skills, wealth, and influence. The same people who once trampled him would one day kneel. As he rises from the ashes, Liam’s heart burns with two goals — to protect the woman who never stopped believing in him... and to destroy everyone who betrayed him. But revenge has a price, and power comes with choices that could cost him everything — even love.

Not until it’s too late. Not until they’ve already lost him. Who was he, really? That’s the question echoing in Sarah’s mind and others….. Long after he’s gone.
