Lucky

Ethan Vance’s past life was the stuff of legend. As the “Sovereign,” he reigned as the world’s most feared mercenary commander—until the one person he trusted above all else turned on him, ending his life in a single, brutal betrayal. He awakens decades later, in 2026, not as a powerful figure but as a penniless, struggling 21-year-old college student. In the sterile glare of a hospital hallway, Ethan’s world seems to crumble. He can’t afford the surgery that could save his mother’s life. To make matters worse, his girlfriend—always quick to chase after money—abandons him on the spot for a wealthier classmate. Just as despair threatens to swallow him, a metallic chime rings out in his mind: [Ding! God-Level Wealth System activated. Binding complete.] [Initial Balance Reward: $10,000,000 deposited into your account!] Suddenly, fragments of his old self snap into place. The instincts of a battlefield commander return, but this time he’s armed not just with experience, but with limitless funds. The days of being dismissed as a loser on campus are over. Ethan Vance, the Sovereign, is back—reborn with a vengeance. To the ex-girlfriend who laughed at his misfortune: Watch as I buy the company your family depends on. To the doctors who turned away his mother: You’ll be lucky to find work in medicine again. And to the shadows of his past life, those enemies still lurking and scheming: I’m coming for my throne. This time, nothing will stand in my way.

The pain of such a betrayal and public humiliation can leave a lasting impact on one's mental health and self-worth. He had grown accustomed to enduring the constant harassment from her and others, but today it reached a new level of cruelty. As he ran home, tears streaming down his face, he was so consumed by his emotions that he didn't see the curb ahead. He tripped and fell, hitting his head hard on the pavement. When he finally regained consciousness, he heard a faint voice calling out to him. ** ** ** "Host detected!!! Beauties picking system activated in 1%..." a computerized voice said out of the blues. "Who's there?" Kevin asked. "10%...89%...100%... system uploaded." It continued. It took a moment and he realized it was coming from his head. Kevin was scared that he was going mad. "Who are you? What are you?" he demanded, holding his head in his hands but then suddenly it spoke again. "Now find a beauty and make her fall in love with you in 72 hours," it said.

I guess my lovely daughter has a heart of gold, but I won't let you take advantage of her!” Their eyes were cold and judgmental towards Noah, who was still an outsider after three years. “Just because you're allowed to live here, don't start thinking that you own the bloody palace!
