In his last life, Liam lived as a moral and responsible man, only to die buried in debt and betrayed by his wife.

Reborn into the count’s family that governs a remote frontier planet within a vast interstellar empire, he becomes the lord at a young age. Having learned that the world is divided between those who are trampled and those who do the trampling, Liam swears that this time he will live selfishly—as a corrupt and ruthless ruler.

Though he aims to become a wicked lord feared by all, he somehow ends up being mistaken for a wise and noble ruler instead…!?
