The Reborn Young Master Is No Longer a Simp
Noah Bennett was born to inherit Bennett Global Group, a powerful multi-billion-dollar empire built by his father from nothing.
But in his first life, Noah wasted everything.
Blinded by love and arrogance, he ignored his father’s warnings, pushed away the people who truly cared for him, and let others use his name, wealth, and influence to tear his family apart. By the time he realized the truth, Bennett Global had collapsed, his father was dead, his body was broken, and his name had become a joke to the world.
As Noah lay dying, a mysterious system awakened.
[Final rating: Pathetic.]
Then he opened his eyes in the past.
This time, Noah refuses to repeat the same mistakes. He will not kneel for false love. He will not ignore his father. He will not inherit an empire he does not deserve.
Starting from the lowest level inside Bennett Global, Noah begins fighting to protect the company before its first major collapse point: the Westbridge Development Contract. But the deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes that his downfall was never caused by one woman alone.
Someone has been moving in the shadows.
Someone inside Bennett Global is opening doors for the enemy.
And the woman Noah once rejected, Astrid Montgomery, may be the only person who saw the truth before he did.
In his last life, Noah Bennett died as a foolish heir who lost everything.
In this life, he will earn his empire, expose every traitor, and make sure no one uses him twice.

Chapter: Chapter 50: The First Strike BackThey found the listening point in twelve minutes.Not a device under the table. Not a dramatic little black bug stuck behind a painting.Nothing that stupid.Harold traced the leak through the archive room’s temporary conference system. Someone had accessed the room audio through a maintenance credential that should have expired six months ago.Diane’s face went cold when she saw it.“That credential belongs to a dead contractor.”Harold grunted.“Useful dead man.”Noah stood behind them, silent.Astrid was beside the door, watching the hallway like she expected Adrian Vale to walk in smiling.The thought was not unreasonable.That was what made it worse.Diane killed the conference system and ordered a full sweep, but Noah stopped Harold before he wiped the access trail.“No.”Harold looked at him.“No?”“Leave the door cracked.”Astrid turned.“Noah.”He glanced at her.“I know.”“You absolutely do not.”That almost made him smile.Almost.He looked back at Harold.“If he is watchin

Chapter: Chapter 49: The Face In The PhotographHarold looked pleased with himself, which was never a good sign.He had taken over a small archive room at Bennett Global and covered the table with old event printouts, donor lists, cropped photos, and one enlarged image in the center.Diane stood beside him, arms folded.Astrid entered with Noah.Diane’s eyes moved to their faces.She noticed something.Of course she did.She did not comment.Good woman.Harold tapped the enlarged image.“Bennett investor dinner. Seven years ago. Better angle.”Noah stepped closer.Richard stood in the photo, younger, speaking to two men near a private dining room entrance. Victor was visible at the edge, not central, not hidden. Elena’s mother appeared in the background.And there.The silver-watch man.Face visible.Older. Clean-shaven. Dark hair threaded with gray. Handsome in a cold, forgettable way. The kind of face that did not demand memory because it expected access to do the work.Noah stared.Nothing.No recognition.Not enough.Then Astri

Chapter: Chapter 48: The Night Astrid Comes BackAstrid came to Noah that night because anger was exhausting and staying away had started to feel like losing to people who wanted distance between them. She found him on the rooftop terrace of Bennett Global, jacket off, sleeves rolled, city lights spread beyond the glass railing. He turned when the door opened. For once, he did not look surprised. That irritated her. “You expected me?” “No.” “You look like you did.” “I hoped.” Astrid stopped. That was the problem with Noah lately. He said things too plainly at the worst possible times and then looked at her like he knew he had made it harder. She walked to the railing, leaving a careful space between them. “I’m still angry.” “I know.” She closed her eyes briefly. “You keep saying that.” “Because arguing with you when you’re right feels suicidal.” Her mouth twitched before she could stop it. Annoying man. “Do not make me laugh when I am trying to be difficult.” “You are succeeding.” “Good.” T

Chapter: Chapter 47: Elena’s Second AttemptElena came dressed as damage this time.No bare shoulders. No old bracelet. No perfume meant to drag Noah backward by the throat.This was different.Simple dress. Pale face. Hair tied back. Eyes tired enough to make strangers soften.Pity was just another kind of seduction.Noah saw it the moment she stepped into the Montgomery Foundation lobby.Astrid saw it too.That was the point.Elena did not come close at first. She stood near the entrance like someone deciding whether she had the right to remain. Two staff members looked uncertain. One recognized her from the gala gossip and immediately looked interested.Noah stood from the waiting area.Astrid was beside the reception desk speaking with Vivian. When she saw Elena, her face went cold.Noah looked at Astrid first.That mattered.Elena noticed.Her mouth tightened before she softened it.Noah walked toward Elena, stopping several feet away.“You should not be here.”“I know.”“Then leave.”Her eyes shone.“I’m scared.”Noah sai

Chapter: Chapter 46: Silver WatchHarold found the guest code at 11:43.He sent Noah one file and then called before Noah could open it.“Do not react where people can see you.”Noah looked up from his desk.That was never a good start.He walked into an empty stairwell and opened the file.Bennett Board Reception — Guest Access Notes.Most names were visible. Investors. Senior advisors. Legal counsel. Patron guests.One entry had no name.Guest H-17. Private advisory access. Cleared through chairman’s office.Noah stared at it.“Chairman’s office?”Harold’s voice came through the phone.“Nine years ago. Your father’s office. Or someone with access to it.”Noah’s jaw tightened.“H-17 appears anywhere else?”“Yes. Hart charity dinner. Greenwell Youth Fund restructure. Greybridge donor summit. Closed Westbridge pre-bid consultation.”The stairwell seemed colder.Westbridge.Of course.Everything came back to that damn contract.Noah said, “Who is H-17?”“Not in the files.”“How convenient.”“Very.”Noah leaned against t

Chapter: Chapter 45: Caleb Sees The LeashCaleb had thought shame would feel hot.It didn’t.It felt cold.It sat behind his ribs and made every breath feel smaller. He walked into Bennett Global knowing people had heard enough. Not everything. Not officially. But enough.Private copy.Elena Hart.Altered file.His name was not in an email yet, which made it worse. Diane had not buried him. Noah had not buried him. Even that felt like humiliation now, because he could not tell if mercy was kindness or strategy.He reached his desk and found Elena’s message waiting.Are you okay?Caleb stared at it.Two days ago, that would have felt like relief.Now it felt timed.He scrolled up.Elena after Diane’s archive email. Elena after Noah’s senior briefing. Elena after the gala clip. Elena before he exported the file. Elena after the leak.Every message had come when he was most angry.Or most ashamed.Or both.His stomach tightened.How did she always know?He opened the chat search and typed Noah.Too many results.Then copy.One m

The Demon emperor logged into a Divine Game
Max entered Divine Epoch Online to save his sick mother from debt.
He died before the game launched.
When black-purple lightning struck his corpse, Ravan, a betrayed demonic emperor, took over his body.
With Max’s memories, debts, and lingering attachment binding him to this new life, Ravan enters Divine Epoch to earn money, rebuild his power, and settle every grudge left behind.
But the game’s divine class path rejects him and unlocks Blood Asura — a hidden class with no instructor, no blessing, and the power to create its own techniques.
From A-rank skills to world bosses, hidden dungeons, rare loot, real-money trades, and a sealed demon bound as his first spirit, Ravan turns the game into his new battlefield.
But the deeper he goes, the more he realizes Divine Epoch Online is not just a game.
Something ancient is waiting behind it.

Chapter: Chapter 25 — Leaving the VillageWelcome back to Divine Epoch.Darkness cleared.Ravan opened his eyes inside the beginner village.The square was louder than before. Players packed around the fountain, the noticeboard, and the market stalls. Some checked weapons. Some called for parties. Some shouted about the emergency update.Then the system rang through the sky.System Announcement: Divine Epoch Online emergency update has ended.System Announcement: Cross-server synchronization has been completed.System Announcement: Main city transfer function has been unlocked.System Announcement: The first player has reached Level 10.System Announcement: All players who reach Level 10 may receive a city transfer recommendation from their Beginner Village Head.The whole village reacted at once.“Level 10 already?”“Who?”“Why didn’t it show the name?”“Has to be the hidden dungeon player.”“Anonymous?”“Or Ravan.”“Aren’t they the same person?”“No one knows, idiot.”A warrior near the fountain checked his own level and cu

Chapter: Chapter 24 — AftermathThe lights came back on.The broken-wrist thug was still against the wall. His wrapped arm pressed to his chest. His face was wet, and his breathing kept catching in his throat.Ravan stood in front of him.The man’s eyes moved past Ravan. He saw the tables. The broken chairs. The bodies on the floor. The cards scattered near his shoe. A bottle still rolling slowly until it tapped the leg of a chair.Tik.The small sound made him flinch.“I’m sorry.” His voice came out fast. “I’m sorry, okay? We were just talking. We didn’t mean it.”Ravan said nothing.The man shook his head hard. “We didn’t touch her. I swear. I swear on my life.”Ravan crouched in front of him.The man pressed harder into the wall. “Please. Please, I’ll leave. I’ll leave the city. You’ll never see me again.”Ravan looked at him for a moment.“Don’t worry.”The man froze.“I won’t kill you.”Hope entered his face too quickly. His lips trembled. “Thank you. Thank you, Max. I swear, I—”Ravan’s eyes darkened red.“Not

Chapter: Chapter 23 — Late Night MassacreLena woke later than usual.No second job to rush to. No early shift waiting. No medicine bottle being stretched in silence. Just the small smell of food drifting from the kitchen.Not good food.Just food.She stepped out slowly and found Ravan near the stove.“Max?”“You’re awake.”“I live here. That happens sometimes.”He looked back at the pan. “Food is ready.”Lena walked closer and looked into it. For a moment she only stared.“Did you cook this or threaten it?”“It is cooked.”“That is not the same thing.”He took a plate.Lena watched him for a few seconds. Then her voice softened. “You made breakfast?”“Yes.”“For me?”Ravan paused. “Yes.”She hid her expression by sitting at the table. “Then bring it before it gets colder and more dangerous.”Ravan placed the food in front of her and sat across.She took one bite. Chewed slowly. Swallowed.“Max.”“What?”“How much salt did you put in this?”“Enough.”“For who?”He paused.Lena reached for the salt and shook some over her foo

Chapter: Chapter 22 — Quiet Moon PhysiqueThe man near the wall did not say it again.His eyes moved to the third man.The third man reached into his jacket.Lena saw it first. “Max, please…”Ravan did not look back.The third man pulled out a small knife.The one near the wall spat to the side. “Fuck this. Break him.”They moved.Ravan looked at them.Something red passed through his eyes for half a breath.The air around the entrance turned cold.The man with the knife stopped first. His hand shook. The blade dipped. The one near the wall took one step and froze. The man on his knees stopped cursing.None of them understood what was happening.Their bodies did.The knife fell.*Clink.*“Run.”That was enough. The man with the knife turned and stumbled toward the road. The one near the wall ran toward the side street. The man with the broken wrist scrambled up and ran with his arm pressed to his chest.Ravan did not chase.Lena was still behind him.She stared at the street, then at him. “Max…”Ravan turned. “Inside.”“What

Chapter: Chapter 21 — MorningKlik—The headset released.Ravan opened his eyes in Max’s room. Morning light came through the window. The transfer confirmation was still pending on the screen. He sat there for a moment and flexed his fingers.Divine Epoch had felt like almost a full day. Only one night had passed outside.His thoughts moved through the last session. Blood Asura. Dark Demon Physique. Velkris. Crown Haven. The emergency update.Ravan looked at the headset.“Interesting.”He checked the transfer again. Still pending. Max’s memories came through briefly. Rent. Medicine. Food. Lena’s note on the pot.Ravan closed the screen.Then he checked the time.Morning.Lena should be back.His chest tightened before he decided anything. His hand curled once against the desk.Ravan looked down at his hand.He tried to ignore it but the feeling sharpened as he stood.The apartment was quiet. The pot sat on the stove. The note was still on the lid. Lena’s shoes were not by the door. Her work bag was not back.Ravan
