He had been framed, his soldiers had been killed and his family had been exiled, it wasn’t long before they came for his head too. His fiancé had sold his family secret just to get back at him and his best friend had shown his true colors while also revealing the real nature and goal of the tyrant king he had spent his entire youth serving. There was no escape, he was a sinner who was detested by the civilians he protected at the frontier, of course he had to die. There was no time to check the right and wrong. Those who should be executed shouldn’t be left standing. Death visited him and claimed his life, but it never took him away. Instead, he was thrown back to six years when all the chaos hadn’t happened and he wasn’t even a general talk less of a sinner. His fate could be rewritten. But nothing was ever easy, he woke up in the body of a good-for-nothing man who was six cities away from his former city, the city he found himself in was the third poorest city in the whole empire. How was he supposed to stop the tyrant king, his two-faced best friend and his disloyal fiancé who were determined to get control of the whole empire even at the risk of innocent people? And stop another chaos from ensuing in the empire. They stood at the top while he was at the bottom. Not to mention that the first challenge he had to surmount was a vicious family who blinded him as soon as he regained some comprehension in his new body. But nothing had ever stopped him before, he was a stubborn man who was resilient even in the face of death.
