I Like Villains, so I Reincarnated as One

Reincarnated as the villainous noble who gets killed early in an SRPG world!?

“Yessssssss!!! I’ve been reincarnated as my favorite character!!”

I woke up in the body of Weiss Hamilton, a villainous noble from the game I played to death, Valhalla Tactics, right after he’d been stabbed by his enraged citizens and left severely wounded because of his scummy rule. However, the territory is in ruins, corruption runs rampant, and the people’s patience has hit its limit. At this rate, a rebellion is bound to happen, and even if I somehow avoid that, I’m still fated to be destroyed by the protagonist.

“Don’t worry, Weiss… I’ll save you. I’ve always imagined how to save you, so leave it to me!!”

Believing I was reincarnated to save my favorite character from his tragic fate and bring him happiness, I used all my game knowledge to rescue him and his allies, putting my all into building the strongest nation. As a result, the story began to diverge from the game’s original plot, and not only did I save Weiss, but also other characters doomed to die, such as the villainess and the false saint. For some reason, even the protagonist started to admire me.
