The Great Sage Wants to Die

Why shouldn’t you read a fantasy novel the day before the college entrance exam?

There are roughly three reasons.

1. If you read a fantasy novel the day before the college entrance exam, there’s a high probability you’ll get hit by a truck and transmigrate.
2. Usually, a South Korean high school senior who dies right before the entrance exam becomes overpowered in another world.
3. Nevertheless, until they become overpowered, they go through all sorts of hardships.

Because of the sin of reading the 17-volume orthodox fantasy novel <The Book of Irkus> the day before the college entrance exam, Han Yoo-an gets hit by a truck on his way to the exam and dies.

Did the heavens also feel sorry for the death of a student who scored perfectly on the September mock exam, on the very day of the college entrance exam?
Han Yoo-an is abruptly dropped into the world of <The Book of Irkus>.

Is this finally the start of an overpowered high school student wreaking havoc in another world? That expectation was short-lived.
Not only is it frustrating enough that he doesn’t understand the language, but he was mistakenly dropped into the imperial palace and became the empress’s pet human. On top of that, there are still four centuries left until the protagonist appears.

They say people who transmigrate into novels live comfortably and well, but he must have committed some sin in his past life. There’s no way he’d be cursed with immortality unless he sold out his country or something.

After rolling around for 400 years, Han Yoo-an, who has even earned the title of Great Sage, now truly… just wants to die peacefully.
However, in order to die, he must make the descendant of Yekarina, the witch who left the curse, the emperor…

“Who are you? Why are you helping me?”
‘Oh God, have you finally decided to let me die? Thank you!’

Could this really be a 400th birthday present from God?
The descendant of Yekarina, and the protagonist of this novel, has rolled right into his lap.
