Betrayal Knight’s Joyful Faith Chapter 535

Synopsis

Poor theater actor Lee Soo-hyun. He fainted after being hit by a falling light, and when he opened his eyes, he possessed a character in “The Blue Knight of the Holy Sword”, a novel that was discontinued due to unpopularity. What’s more, he transmigrated into the body of Arendt von Eckhart, who betrayed the Knights Templar and was destined to be executed soon. The only thing left for the character who has completed his or her role on stage is to exit. In other words, there is only death… Character interpretation can vary depending on the actor playing it. “Please take care of me, you traitorous bastard.” In order to survive, he must create a role other than that of Arendt, the ‘traitor’, even if it means twisting the story. Now, the life-threatening method acting begins!

Betrayal Knight’s Joyful Faith (배신 기사의 유쾌한 신의) is a high-concept "Method Acting" fantasy that subverts the transmigration trope. Instead of a soldier or a scholar, our protagonist is Lee Soo-hyun, a struggling theater actor. When he wakes up in the body of Arendt von Eckhart, a side character in a discontinued novel destined for execution as a traitor, he doesn't just try to survive—he treats the entire world as a stage.

The story is a "Comedy of Errors" mixed with high-stakes political intrigue. Soo-hyun must maintain the "mask" of the arrogant traitor Arendt while simultaneously manipulating events to save the world, all while viewing the original protagonist and the Gods themselves as mere "props" or "co-stars" in his play.
